Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are imported Japanese items, store them in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent card warping or ink fading. If you intend to grade your cards, use high-quality, acid-free sleeves and rigid card protectors (toploaders) immediately upon pulling them from the pack to preserve the surface finish. While these cards are fully compatible with official Pokemon TCG rules, note that the card text is exclusively in Japanese; for tournament play, keep a digital or printed reference card for the specific translations of move sets and abilities.
