I know nothing about Pokémon; it completely skipped me somehow growing up in the 90s. Now, my nephew is asking for Pokémon card packs for Christmas. I looked on Amazon, since I’ll need to ship anyway, but was royally confused by colors and boosters and foils.

He has like a dozen cards now, but wants more to play with friends at school.

What the hell am I supposed to be looking for?

    The problem with “My First Battle” is that it looks like a very simplified version of Pokemon. You can play with those decks, but you aren’t going to be able to play a full Pokemon game with them.

    If the nephew wants to play with friends, I’d look for other decks or something like Battle Academy, which will teach how to play the game but with full cards.
