When Andrew first asked me to animate this entire video, I was beyond excited. I only really had my silly animation videos when I first applied to edit for him, and I didn’t think at all that he (or even I) would find any of that useful at all! So the fact that I got to make THIS - a video Andrew said he only wanted to produce when he knew it would be good enough - felt like everything was worth it in the end, and I was sure to give it my all!! 😊I really hope everyone enjoys it; I spent nearly a month coming up with ideas and drawing everything and it was very fun to make art of Ball Guys and Pokémon cards and not pigs and Jigglypuffs as I usually do for my own TH-cam stuff haha 🐖 I’ve spent way more time on this than any other video I’ve edited for Tricky Gym and I am very tired after it but I am still very proud of it and hope everyone has as much fun with it (and GLC) as I did!! Now I will probably fall on my bed and sleep for the next 15 hours now that I’m finally done good night everyone 🛏
@joshtodd354 If Taylor Swift got flamed like that, her Swifties would descend like ravening hordes on detractors. So does that make us Mahonies? Ball Guy-ies? Pig Cheffies?
Here in brazil, some old cards are hella expensive so our local GLC league allow players to use proxys, this makes so casual and fun to play since you can use pretty much every card
GLC is an exceptionally fun format to build for. I love taking to time to cull through all the options, looking for unique and obscure interactions to capitalize on. The format is picking up steam in my area, too. We’re considering trying GLC events for certain league nights now.
The best format in Pokémon! 🙌🏻💚 This is truly a brainchild you can be proud of Andrew! 👌🏻💜 Beautifully explained in this video and the graphics are amazing pig chef 🤩
My locals do a GLC tournament once a month and I finally built my own GLC deck, I'm so excited! So far, Jumpluff with all the new TMs has been pretty fun in playtesting. Double TM Devo in a format with just one rare candy can be devastating.
One of my goals this year is to make a trip to Full Grip to play in a GLC tournament. Recently joined the Discord, and Im learning the different styles of decks and discovering what cards are competitive. This format is amazing because it makes out-of-rotation cards playable again. I knew i was holding onto my bulk for a reason 😅
Wow this video was fantastic! Well done andrew and pigchefer! I have been a huge fan of GLC ever since it came out. Huge breath of fresh air vs standard. Oh, and psychic is the best type btw. 😊🔮
Bro cannot fathom the amount of hard work creativity & passion you have put into this single video. Really wish you the best. Hope soneday ptcgl will bring the expanded back again for online players like us. best wishes VS_SEEKER
Yo Andrew I love your videos. I took the inspiration from the metal deck you built and actually won a local tournament with it. Though I have been playin fire more recently, it's just more fun to pilot lol
I only learned about this format today (somehow), but its quite similar to how me and my friends would play a few years ago in uni as I didn't like ex Pokémon etc The ruleset was simpler and was just any card that isn't ex, gx, etc is allowed It was a lot of fun as we had some very wacky decks. Might try to get back into Pokémon with this format as it sounds a lot of fun ^^
GLC is so much fun that I built decks in all 11 types (“our decks go up to 11!”) to teach local kids how to play. A lot more fun and a better chance for people to make more creative decks than “Ooh, Another Lost Box with One Different Card! WHOOOOOOA!”😂
to be fair, standard format could be more diverse. you don't HAVE to play meta decks or decks created by other people. if you have a solid grasp of the game, it's possible to build a deck of your own creation that's substantially different from anything else. all my decks I've competed with have been that way
@@tituswu691 agreed- although because of the current meta, most decks have no competitive chance. Klawf is still considered “rogue”, as was Gengar VMAX and Kyurem.
That's not really true in competitive GLC, just like it's not true in local standard play. The GLC meta is near exclusively water and psychic, there's rarely a deck outside that type at big events. So.. the same can be said about competitive standard. A meta exists for competitive play, it doesn't matter the format.
All these people with conspiracy ideas of why GLC was created... Completely ignoring it's just Pokemon TCG's take on Magic's commander format. Like, nothing wrong with that. Commander is MTGs most popular format for a reason.
That might be why some are concerned though. EDH/Commander becoming the most popular MtG Format had a bit of a negative effect since it both reflects how poorly the other Formats are handled where people only feel like Commander is the only real way to play and in response WotC has leaned *very hard* into making a majority of their recent products cater only to Commander Format to the detriment of the other ones -Modern Horizons 3 getting a separate product solely of Commander Decks instead of a new Modern Event Deck Series being the most transparent example. GLC being on the rise from it's grassroots origins is great, but the last thing I think most would want is for it to become the default way to play Pokemon like what happened with EDH. Especially with the current state of the Standard format healing itself from the Three-Prizer Years and possible plans to re-introduce Expanded with a recent banlist update, it would be a shame for all that to be undone by catering to a singular Format with all future products.
@@fawfulmark2" but the last thing I think most would want is for it to become the default way to play Pokemon like what happened with EDH." Then it wont happen if most don't want it to.
I love seeing this format grow. While I have strayed away from 1v1 games in favor of multiplayer card games like Magic: the Gathering's Commander format, it's still awesome to see fans embrace this format as their own. I'm not sure how it would work, but they day PTCG has a multiplayer format (with rules and card formatting to match) more focused on the social interactions between players, plus the deck restrictions seen in GLC, I'm dropping a full paycheck on cards 😂
After months on being talking and playing GLC with 2-3 friends , we got a variety of deck to spare with locals new players and the other day we got almost 16 people playing and enjoying the format. It was awesome. I play Pokemon tcg since jungle expansion (with some pauses) and after many years playing the standard format, it got boring, always fast/strong decks making the game over in no more than 3-4 turns :c but in GLC anything can happen, it's like the old times pokemon tcg. Now we play glc tournaments every week on our local store. The next step is to implement the badges system. The only thing that make people think about playing is the difficult to get the older cards. Besides that almost every player that tries the format love it Thanks Andrew to create this
I love GLC for a few reasons. Chief among them are the fact that we can see decade old cards being played again AND alongside modern cards in a non-broken format like Expanded, and you actually can focus on evolving Pokémon, a CORE MECHANIC of the TCG that largely gets ignored in Standard. To me, GLC just FEELS like the true TCG experience.
Andrew, I'm having lots of fun with this format with my nephews, we also play it as a multiplayer format inspired from commander. I also want to try Raid format. Would it be possible to build a Raid deck for this format? How would you build it? I wanna build one and have fun with my nephews. Switching between GLC 1v1, multiplayer GLC and Raid format sounds like a lot of fun. Thank you very much.
I got that fluffy bidoof plush at Knoxville regionals earlier this month. And shout out to LDF. He is ONE of my favorite poketubers along side Wossy from ptcgradio. And trickygyms GLC format.. I love GLC .it's better than standard imo..
Trickygym has been making this format for a while before covid. And in the official rules for alternate play at Pokemon they have gym leader challenge format mentioned and give credit to trickygym for this format ..
I love GLC, it lets unique pokemon shine who aren’t just ex. I hope they continue to support it officially, it lets them keep making ex giants while having a reason to design cool, unique regular cards.
I was a card shop boss monster at one point my advice is take it easy on your opponents don't view everything in front of you as a victim devastate enough people and nobody wants to play with you anymore..
Andrew you need 1 more rule!!!!! Eevee can go in any deck!!!! Adds so much for soooo little!!!! It’s a must. (And don’t tell me we can’t Handel 1 more rule! Benefit >>> cost)
This is awesome! We are trying to get people interested in GLC at our local card shop! Perhaps we'll have enough interest to start an actual competition when the next championship year begins.
nice add. GlC is a cool mix of pauper and singleton and a much needed alternative format for the game. Now, can someone answer a few questions? 1- where to look at decklists? 2- average price of GLC decks? 3- Can anyone outside the US say the format is played elsewhere?
Wait, you gor heat from Poketubers saying talking smack about how you only made this format so that you can win side events? They're just jealous they didn't come up with the format first. I love GLC and will be my preferred way to playing Pokémon. So thank you, Mahone, for creating a fantastic format that should get much more love and praise from TPC and Wizards of the Coast
The only thing I don't like about this format is the weakness mechanic. It's kinda hard to have fun when you're entire type you selected is weak to the entire deck of your opponent
The weakness mechanic exists in all forms of the pokemon TCG. Not all water pokemon are weak to lightning, not all fighting pokemon are weak to grass. There are also cards that negate weakness like weakness guard energy and weakness policy tool card. I would argue that weakness plays a smaller role in GLC than it does in standard. Ask me how I like playing my Mew VMAX deck against roaring moon ex!
How about a "Trainer Challenge" where they must build a deck with at most one evolution line of each type of pokemon and each evolution line must be from a different type of pokemon?
My main problem with glc is that getting BW and SM cards is pretty difficult since stores in my area don't even sell sword and shield packs anymore so it'd be a miracle if I saw anything from before Brilliant Stars for sale. It still looks really fun to play but I don't know if you could make a good deck with just SV and SS cards.
Hope someone clarifies for me regarding the types of cards that are forbidden in the GLC format. Are the ff cards forbidden in the format (for as long as they do not have V/VMax/eX etc. cards)? -Rapid Strike -Single Strike -Ancient -Future
Tribe cards like Single/Rapid/Fusion/Ancient/Future are all legal as long as they have no Rule Box. Ancient Traits(Alpha/Omega/Delta) seem to be an exception to legality since their Traits are more like Abilities than Ruleboxes and they are legal too.

I will be going out and looking for the classic Emboar in honor of your work. This was STELLAR!
your editing is amazing
Oh, she wanna meet me she want henny brodie brought the tp she think she know me she heard neaky
It was worth the effort! 👌🏻💚 You made a great format look even more fun 🤗 Fabulous work dear 👍🏻💐
The editing is super smooth and the art is adorable. Fantastic work, it came out amazing!
Andrew is now the canonical voice for Ball Guy. Sorry, I don't make the rules.
Man’s gotta rock the ball guy playmat and deck box now on streams
1st time I heard AM talk on TrickyGym, I thought, “Is that Ball Guy?” Turns out the answer was “Yes!”
Seems fitting as Mahone is akin to a NPC, forgettable and usually insufferable
@@GreenFlatEarth why are you watching this video then? please get a life
@joshtodd354 If Taylor Swift got flamed like that, her Swifties would descend like ravening hordes on detractors. So does that make us Mahonies? Ball Guy-ies? Pig Cheffies?
I love the way Andrew talks about himself in the 3rd person
Who is this “Ann Dru”? We of the Royal Pokémon Hegemony recognize Sir Ball Guy, but this other personage is unknown to Us.😂
Andrew? this video is narrated by ball guy
This may be Tricky’s best video so far
You know it’s a banger when a video edited by pig dropped
I just recently got introduced to the GLC idea and stumbled over this video. I like it, I'm totally down for this!
I love playing BLT!
We're slowly growing our PTC community (we're a bunch of mtg players) and plan on doing GLC events later this year
I've played in 3 GLC tournaments, and honestly it's become my favorite format
i cannot wait for this format to blow up, just sent this to my lgs owner and hopefully we can get a league running!
Pigchefer knocked the animation out of the park! Well done
This was great! I took the over approach and made 24 decks so far.
Seems reasonable to me…
That rules!!!
This just got me back into Pokemon cards again, not just glc, but standard and expanded deck ideas are also flowing. Thanks Andrew.
This is so cool! Whoever edited this should get a promotion
pigchefer :3
I found out about this format through a LGS! Kind of reminds me of how Commander is more fun to play in MTG. Thank you for the great format and video!

This video is perfect. The art and Easter egg lore throughout is really entertaining. Thanks for putting so much care into this!
Great video with great starter information for the format. And also spectacular art and editing by Pig!

Ain't no way he got LDF to trash talk GLC
Probably didn't take too much after the GLC Conquest video they did together. It was a slaughter
its not a good format
Being old school, I love this format. Sounds amazing!
Pig Chef understood the assignment, and he CRUSHED it.
Pigchefer's art is killing it in this one! I can really tell he's improved a ton
Beautiful video
Really wanna start playing over the summer
Wow this video was fantastic! Well done andrew and pigchefer! I have been a huge fan of GLC ever since it came out. Huge breath of fresh air vs standard. Oh, and psychic is the best type btw. 😊🔮
Turbo Colorless says “Hello”, while Turbo Dark chews on your Pokemon for 200%. 🤣. Nice to see Ball Guy getting all this great support!

Hope you are doing well bro! Thanks for the kind words 😁
Didn't expect to see that jobby clip but it's appreciated 🤣
Let's go! Nice animations Mr. Pigchefer!
Sound super fun, I'll try this!
This is a way better explanation, then when I try to tell my nieces and nephews about it.
Thanks Ballguy!
I love how we can all tell Andrew reached out to friends in the community to trash talk him all in good fun for the video.

My nephew was just asking me if there were other ways to play pokemon, like in mtg. Looks fun.
This was a much needed video! Top quality as always!
since GLC format was kind of born out of the runaway popularity of mtg commander, I feel like there should be rules for GLC multiplayer as well maybe
GLC is so much fun that I built decks in all 11 types (“our decks go up to 11!”) to teach local kids how to play. A lot more fun and a better chance for people to make more creative decks than “Ooh, Another Lost Box with One Different Card! WHOOOOOOA!”😂

Lets gooo🎉 playing GLC in my city from Spain💪🏻
I wish I could get more people into GLC, it's not a popular format around me. I even bought bulk staples to give out...
I wasn't expecting a Neopets reference at 7:07 LOL
Love it! GLC is my preferred Format to play the Pokemon TCG
this is an interesting introduction!!! i will eventually get to this entire thing, when i buy me some cards.... (student cash tier life my beloved)

We need the full versions of the "trash talks" - especially the OmniPoke one

Great video Andrew. N pigchief killed it too. Great work guys
Tricky Gym is The Best. I hope that GLC expands to other countries and becomes known to more players. Keep it up buddy.
GLC is the best thing to happen to Pokémon. Thanks, Ball Guy!
Also goals: Mahone autographed full art ball guy card.
Go and build, i loved this format
Of course Pokémon's Mr Fun himself Ball Guy is the head of GLC - amazing video to intro an unbelievable format!

I was so hype for this video
I got that fluffy bidoof plush at Knoxville regionals earlier this month.
And shout out to LDF. He is ONE of my favorite poketubers along side Wossy from ptcgradio. And trickygyms GLC format..
I love GLC .it's better than standard imo..
Mmmmmhm the community is really cool! N the content is always great
Loved the cameos haha
As a MTG EDH player, this makes a lot of sense. Why was this not a thing as soon as commander became a thing.
Trickygym has been making this format for a while before covid.
And in the official rules for alternate play at Pokemon they have gym leader challenge format mentioned and give credit to trickygym for this format ..
I love GLC, it lets unique pokemon shine who aren’t just ex. I hope they continue to support it officially, it lets them keep making ex giants while having a reason to design cool, unique regular cards.
"All the decks" YAAS 😂😂
I appreciate the appearance of jobby the Hong 😂
I was a card shop boss monster at one point my advice is take it easy on your opponents don't view everything in front of you as a victim devastate enough people and nobody wants to play with you anymore..
Andrew you need 1 more rule!!!!! Eevee can go in any deck!!!! Adds so much for soooo little!!!! It’s a must. (And don’t tell me we can’t Handel 1 more rule! Benefit >>> cost)
**taps sign** NO EXCEPTIONS
Will start the petition then… have to see how many dogs I can get 😂
So glad to see GLC get more attention
This is awesome! We are trying to get people interested in GLC at our local card shop! Perhaps we'll have enough interest to start an actual competition when the next championship year begins.
I now know why I like this format. It's similar to MTG commander. With the one card rule in both games.
GLC is so freaking good!
Ayyo, it's commader, hell yeah
nice add. GlC is a cool mix of pauper and singleton and a much needed alternative format for the game.
Now, can someone answer a few questions?
1- where to look at decklists?
2- average price of GLC decks?
3- Can anyone outside the US say the format is played elsewhere?
I should try this ❤
Fun stuff. Promise!
Man I've heard of Gym Leader Format way before since 2021. Did I miss something? I like the challenge though. Love it.
Another incredible job editing and animating from pig chef. Insane work on this one
Honestly thought Ball Guy was gonna sound like 1960's Jackie Vernon.
Pigchefer 🐐
The best format ever. Have fun playing Pokemon GLC ❤
Great video!!
look mom im in a tricky gym video
Yooooo you're there for three seconds woooooohoooo
L E G E N D
Wait, you gor heat from Poketubers saying talking smack about how you only made this format so that you can win side events? They're just jealous they didn't come up with the format first. I love GLC and will be my preferred way to playing Pokémon. So thank you, Mahone, for creating a fantastic format that should get much more love and praise from TPC and Wizards of the Coast
The format was already a thing before, Andrew just made it his own. People played aceless monotype already, except without the singleton.
Meu formato favorito. Queria que aqui em Recife, tivesse mais eventos de GLC
Jobby jumpscare lmao
The Chef has cooked once again
okay now this is epic
Best way to play Pokémon, me and my roommate have a deck of every type (not fairy tho)
The only thing I don't like about this format is the weakness mechanic. It's kinda hard to have fun when you're entire type you selected is weak to the entire deck of your opponent
The weakness mechanic exists in all forms of the pokemon TCG. Not all water pokemon are weak to lightning, not all fighting pokemon are weak to grass. There are also cards that negate weakness like weakness guard energy and weakness policy tool card. I would argue that weakness plays a smaller role in GLC than it does in standard. Ask me how I like playing my Mew VMAX deck against roaring moon ex!
@@TrickyGym I’ll go with “As infrequently as possible” for $500 in store credit, Alex.
The hardest part is getting around the water/psychic meta in GLC.
The one per car no special rule box means it not same old decks being done over and over, ofcause downside is if you matched against your weakness
Weakness can be overcome with smart play and deck building, just like in standard
How about a "Trainer Challenge" where they must build a deck with at most one evolution line of each type of pokemon and each evolution line must be from a different type of pokemon?
My main problem with glc is that getting BW and SM cards is pretty difficult since stores in my area don't even sell sword and shield packs anymore so it'd be a miracle if I saw anything from before Brilliant Stars for sale. It still looks really fun to play but I don't know if you could make a good deck with just SV and SS cards.
Yeah that can be difficult to get older cards however most of my older cards I got for glc come from online shops like TCG player or full grip games
You can always order singles you need online!
…or find someone keeping old cards in a Home Despot bucket (true story!)
Psychic spread is where it's at. Mismagius Azelf and Dusknoir op 😂
Hope someone clarifies for me regarding the types of cards that are forbidden in the GLC format.
Are the ff cards forbidden in the format (for as long as they do not have V/VMax/eX etc. cards)?
-Rapid Strike
-Single Strike
-Ancient
-Future
Tribe cards like Single/Rapid/Fusion/Ancient/Future are all legal as long as they have no Rule Box. Ancient Traits(Alpha/Omega/Delta) seem to be an exception to legality since their Traits are more like Abilities than Ruleboxes and they are legal too.
Commander-ish style in Pokémon TCG!
Of course, it has to be fans that improve and innovate in the Pokemon space, because the billion dollar franchise can't be bothered.
