Rising Rivals PreRelease - Things to know for Beginners

If you are taking your child to a Pokemon Platinum Rising Rivals Pre Release event there are a few things you should know:

1. Trading during the event is NOT allowed. You must play with the cards you were given. If they would like to trade they may do so AFTER they are done playing.

2. They need to hang on to, or have you hang on to their cards, one pile of cards looks much like any other and it is easy to lose them.

3. Tell them not to be afraid to ask for help, that is why there are Pokemon Professors.

4. Whether they do the main event or the Theme Deck Challenge they will receive the sleeves, the promo card and Packs of the new set. With the Theme deck challenge they will receive 4 Packs of the Rising Rivals Booster set. If they do the Pre-Release they will get 6 packs to make a deck and 2 Packs after they are done playing and turn in their energy cardss.

5. If they are competing in the Pre Release event they will have to build their own deck of 40 cards from scratch using only the cards they were given there.

Discuss trading with your child. If it is OK with you than it is fine, if you want them to talk with you before they make any trades make that clear. If you are unsure ask a Professor, they will know if a trade is fair all around. Trading cards is a big part of the game but it's not manditory.
