DS1 wants to learn to play. I have never played before and don't know the rules. I have watched YouTube and can set up the game but I'm having trouble with playing.
Can a fire energy pokemon damage say an earth pokemon, etc?
How do pokemon evolve from basic to stage 1?
When do you play trainer cards and what do they do?
Can you add an energy card, a trainer card and battle all in 1 turn or do you do 1 thing per turn?
Help me help my child.

Do you have a local card shop that you guys can go to? A lot of them have Pokemon TCG events, so that would be my first place to check. I don't play the TCG myself, so I'm no help.
Most of the players are really nice and helpful to new people coming into the game. You'll still get the assholes, but a lot of people just want to spread the love of the game and will help teach both you and your son. Good luck!

Thanks Rama. I'll look into a local shop. I know once of the used book stores used to have TCG nights but the store closed. Maybe I can ask the comic book store of they know of anything.

Way, way back when I used to play Pokémon and yu gi oh I used an emulator to simulate gameplay on my computer and learned from that. I looked and they do have a game platform online. It's a good way to expand your skills and use cards you may not physically have. www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-tcg/play-online/download/
