according to the press releases and website, the player vs. AI 'trainer challenge' and player vs. player 'TCG online' are completely different animals when it comes to card/deck access costs.So we have to buy the theme decks to get the passwords for this game and pay a subscription? :nonono: That sounds a little too mean to me.

THIS is the version the representative was likely referencing when speaking about subscription or other costs...Expanding on the recently introduced Pokémon Trainer Challenge, The Pokémon Company International announced today the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online, a player-versus-player TCG, launching in fall 2011 for anyone looking to battle 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from the convenience of their PC.
[snip...]When Pokémon TCG Online launches later this year at www.pokemontcg.com, players will already have two ways to collect virtual Pokémon TCG cards, ensuring they are ready for battle online. The recently announced Pokémon Trainer Challenge, launching in April, will give players access to three free virtual Pokémon TCG pre-constructed decks that will be transferable into Pokémon TCG Online. New and seasoned Pokémon TCG players can also prepare for online battles against other players by purchasing physical cards—the three Pokémon TCG: Black & White theme decks, which are available April 6th, include a code that unlocks a virtual deck for play in the Pokémon Trainer Challenge and Pokémon TCG Online.
True. Very true. The decks they give us need more search cards, cause I cant do much with a Cyndaquil and nothing to search for its evo's with.

Played through each league once with every deck, beating plant with the water deck took forever and I still cant uset he B/W decks T_T
I've played over 50 games on the new site and I think it's great! It will be fun to add new cards to it too! It will be even better when it's fully up and running. but I've been having fun playing it just for kicks.
