Join us every Monday night at 6pm for Gym Leader Challenge—usually called GLC—is a fan-created Pokémon TCG format that’s all about flavor, creativity, and actually feeling like a Gym Leader. Instead of chasing the newest meta deck, you build around one Pokémon type and prove your mastery of it.🔑 Core Rules (the big stuff)
Singleton format: Only 1 copy of each card (except basic Energy).
Mono-type only: Pick one Pokémon type (Fire, Water, Psychic, etc.) and stick to it.
No Rule Box Pokémon: That means no Pokémon ex, GX, V, VMAX, Radiant, etc.
60-card deck, standard prize rules (6 prizes).
Expanded-style card pool, but with a custom ban list to keep things fair and fun.
🎭 Why people LOVE GLC
Every deck feels unique – no copy-paste lists.
Budget-friendly – no $50 chase cards required.
Skill-forward – sequencing, planning, and matchup knowledge really matter.
Theme-heavy – your deck feels like a real Gym Leader’s team.
It’s the format where your “weird pet card” can actually shine ✨
