What is a TCG?

A trading card game is also known as a TCG. Online TCGs are similar to their real life counterparts, like Pokemon for example, where you collect cards and trade them with other members to complete a deck. The only difference is that online TCGs are completely free! You earn cards by playing games and participating in activities.

Generation is a decades TCG.

All players begin with a starter pack consisting of 3 from choice deck, 6 random cards, & 20 Love Beads. These will be sent to your e-mail within a week. Make sure to check your spam/junk folder.

Basic Trading

After receiving your starter pack, you will need to display your cards on a website so other people can trade with you. It does not need to be anything fancy, as long as it is presentable. That means, try to avoid yellow text on lime green backgrounds.

There are a few things a trade post should have. The most basic is a page housing all your cards from a TCG. Usually, these are organized according to what you are and are not willing to trade. Of course, you may add more categories such as 'Future Collections' or 'Pending Trades'. In addition you must have a trade log.

A trade log is a record to keep track of what you have traded and earned. A major rule for trade logs is that they must be detailed. If you have earned cards, include the name of the game and the name of the card. If you have traded with a member, include their name and the name of the cards traded. Be specific!

Never restart or clear your trade logs.

Please note that after trading always take down the card(s) you have offered. They are no longer yours once you have traded them.

You may only start earning cards once you have been sent your starter packs. Here is a list of ways you can earn cards at Generation. It is fun and easy!
