This way,both players have a guaranteed basic Pokemon.
Now you’re free to shuffle your deck and place it in the Deck position on the playmat.

Flip a coin to determine who goes first, anddraw three cards for your starting hand.
If the total damage counters exceed the Pokemon’s HP, it’s Knocked Out.
