Pokémon Trading Card Game/How to Play/Turns

A player’s turn consists of the following: Other than the first and last actions, players may perform any action in any order. Players alternate turns until one player wins the game.
 * 1) First, draw a card from the top of that player's deck;
 * 2) Attach one TCG Energy card to one of that player’s Pokémon in play (either Active or Bench Pokémon);
 * 3) Play TCG Pokémon (Basic Pokémon) to that player's Bench,
 * 4) Evolve any of that player's Pokémon in play;
 * 5) Retreat that player's Active Pokémon if the Active Pokémon can satisfy the TCG Energy card retreat cost;
 * 6) Play any TCG Trainer cards in that player's Hand pertaining to the rules on each Trainer card and then typically placing that Trainer card face up in the player’s "Discard Pile", which is locked on the right side of the player's field just below that player's deck;
 * 7) Use any Abilities or Pokémon Powers that appear on that player's Active or Bench Pokémon, and
 * 8) Finally, "TCG Attack" if that player has the appropriate TCG Energy card (Energy card(s)) attached on that player's Active Pokémon. Attacking always ends that player’s turn. The first player to have a turn is not allowed to attack, but all other actions are allowed as described above.
