    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 🛏

    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.

    • @fawfulmark2
      @fawfulmark2 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

    This is great! Oddly enough, when I started playing with my family, we built decks just like this. It was a little bit different because we built decks by what type the Pokémon were in the games not just their color in the TCG. So that meant you could play some colorless Pokémon or even different a different color as long as it one of its in game types was on theme.

    @ARDIZsq 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    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.

      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

    • @MoonduckPsy
      @MoonduckPsy 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    • @AceTrainerX
      @AceTrainerX 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      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.

    • @TrickyGym
      @TrickyGym  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      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!

    The ruleset was simpler and was just any card that isn't ex, gx, etc is allowed

    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

    Guys, guys!!! I figured out how to make the format even more fun🤯:
    -You can have 1 pokémon with Rule Box in your deck, let's call it your Commanding Pokémon.
    -Your Commanding Pokémon starts the game in an extra zone, and you can play your Commanding Pokémon in your bench any time, just like you would playing from your hand.
    -If your Commanding Pokémon would be put in any zone from the field, you can put it back into their starting zone and you can play it again! But to balance this out, you need to discard 2 energy from your Pokémon for each time you already played your Commanding pokémon.
    I hope you all like my new and original format idea😉

    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

    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 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 😂

      Please no, keep pod politics out of Pokemon. It's why I quit Magic.

    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 notice none of the “detractors” have a side event at Every Single Regionals…

      As someone who was there when EDH (now Commander) was born in Magic, I foresee GLC being the downfall of Pokemon.@@MoonduckPsy

    what list should we take for the official format? Expanded banlist or GLC official page banlist

    • @TrickyGym
      @TrickyGym  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The GLC ban list on gymleaderchallenge.com. Expanded is a completely different format and not related other than the fact that both go black and white on
