Gotta catch 'em all... starting with the basics! 🎴

Ever watched a kid light up when they finally get how the Pokémon Trading Card Game works? That's what we live for.

Ocean State Card Con is bringing our Pokémon Learning Lab straight to you - and we tailor it to fit your event! Whether it's a party, library, rec department, school, or community center, we teach beginners how to play through guided instruction and coached matches in a fun, welcoming space.
