# Build Pokemon TCG Pocket Deck

Use the Pokemon Pocket MCP server to create a competitive 20-card deck.

## Input Requirements

- Core Pokemon or strategy
- Preferred playstyle (aggro/control/tempo)
- Budget constraints (optional)
- Existing cards (optional)

## Process

1. Search for core Pokemon using MCP `search_cards`
2. Find synergies using `find_synergies`
3. Calculate energy requirements
4. Verify deck composition (20 cards, max 2 copies)
5. Analyze using `analyze_deck`
6. Provide optimization suggestions

## Output

- Complete 20-card deck list
- Energy curve analysis
- Strategic explanation
- Counter-strategy recommendations
```

### 3. Pokemon Analysis Command Template

# Analyze Pokemon Card

Provide comprehensive card analysis using Pokemon Pocket MCP server.

## Input

- Card name or criteria
- Analysis focus (stats/rarity/meta)

## Process

1. Search card using `get_card` or `search_cards`
2. Retrieve type stats using `get_type_stats`
3. Calculate competitive viability
4. Find counters using `find_counters`
5. Generate comparison data

## Output

- Complete card breakdown
- Competitive tier rating
- Strategic usage guide
- Counter-strategy recommendations
```

## MCP Server Integration

      "env": {}
    }
  }
}
```

### Content Organization

1. **Overview** (100-200 words)
2. **Core Capabilities** (with examples)
3. **MCP Integration** (tools and resources)
4. **Usage Examples** (real queries)
5. **Best Practices** (do's and don'ts)
6. **Bundled Resources** (scripts/references)

### Pokemon-Specific Guidelines

**Deck Building:**

- Always specify 20-card format
- Include energy zone rules (no energy in deck)
- Mention 3-point win condition
- Reference bench limit (3 Pokemon)
- Max 2 copies per card

**Card Analysis:**

- Include weakness/resistance
- Show energy efficiency
- Mention retreat cost
- Reference competitive tier
- Provide type coverage

**Meta Analysis:**

- Current tier system (S-D)
- Usage statistics
- Matchup percentages
- Strategic recommendations
- Budget considerations

## Common Patterns

### Pattern 1: Deck Build Workflow

```
1. Get user requirements
2. Search core cards via MCP
3. Find synergies
4. Calculate energy curve
5. Verify deck rules
6. Analyze with MCP
7. Provide optimization
8. Suggest counters
```

### Pattern 2: Card Analysis Workflow

```
1. Retrieve card data via MCP
2. Calculate competitive metrics
3. Find similar cards
4. Identify counters
5. Generate tier rating
6. Provide strategic guide
```

### Pattern 3: Meta Analysis Workflow

```
1. Query database for statistics
2. Calculate usage rates
3. Analyze matchup matrix
4. Generate tier lists
5. Provide strategic advice
```

## Testing Pokemon Skills

### Test Scenarios

1. **Deck Building Test:**

   ```
   Input: "Build Mewtwo ex deck"
   Check: 20 cards, proper energy curve, competitive viability
   ```

2. **Card Analysis Test:**

   ```
   Input: "Analyze Charizard ex"
   Check: All stats, type effectiveness, tier rating
   ```

3. **Meta Query Test:**
   ```
   Input: "Current S-tier Pokemon"
   Check: Accurate tier list, supporting data
   ```

### Validation Checklist

# Pokemon Deck Optimizer

Optimize Pokemon TCG Pocket decks for competitive play.

## Optimization Process

### 1. Current Deck Analysis
- Use MCP `analyze_deck` for composition
- Identify energy curve issues
- Calculate average HP/attack
- Find missing synergies

### 2. Meta Alignment
- Compare to S-tier strategies
- Identify power level gaps
- Suggest meta-appropriate additions
- Maintain 20-card format

### 3. Energy Curve Fixes
- Calculate energy distribution
- Ensure 1-2 type focus
- Avoid 3+ energy costs
- Balance early/mid/late game

### 4. Synergy Improvements
- Use `find_synergies` for additions
- Enhance type coverage
- Add counter-strategies
- Maintain consistency
