The Pokémon Trading Card Game has mostly cosmetic faults (such as graphics and sound) but there are a few other design flaws that should have been more carefully considered before releasing a final product. First of all, there is no replay value. Once you've collected all 228 cards you'll want very little to do with the game as there is none of the 'raising' factor that is involved in the other Gameboy Pokémon games. There is ... the fact that the entire game is supposed to be based on 'real-life' where Pokémon don't exist- so why do the Legendary Cards talk to you when you obtain them? Of course the game does excel in other areas, like the faithful reproduction of every available card and the easy to read and understand rules of those cards.
