Trainer cards are fundamental to the Pokémon Trading Card Game, representing items, supporters, or stadiums that alter gameplay. Introduced in the very first sets of the TCG, they are crucial for strategic deck building, allowing players to draw cards, search their deck, heal Pokémon, or disrupt their opponent's strategy. Over the generations, Trainer cards have evolved significantly, with various subcategories and effects, shaping the meta-game and offering diverse tactical options. Their role in the games and anime is primarily seen through characters using items or receiving support during battles, mirroring their function in the TCG. Culturally, Trainer cards symbolize the tools and assistance a Pokémon Trainer relies on, reinforcing the theme of a Trainer's journey and their bond with their Pokémon. They are an indispensable part of the Pokémon universe, representing the strategic depth beyond just the creatures themselves.
