Should we be able to scan cards and in TCG live and use those cards?

when you get Pokemon TCG live you have a deck to start out with but what if we already have a deck and we have to use those cards that come with the TCG live what do you think? 🤔

    Really? you don't think they make it easy enough to have any of the top decks?

    You wanted to just scan physical cards into the game… like by the image, card/collection number or something? The current cards don't have an unique identifier, that means it would allow a card to be scanned multiple times by multiple persons (not to mention that you could just have a pic of it from the net in your phone and scan it…).

    To make that work a lot of stuff had to change, not only in the online game but the physical cards too (new cards had to be printed and so on). So no it's not a reasonable idea at all.

    It’s not hard to get credits to craft the cards, even if you don’t play regularly.

    There is literally no point to that. At that point they should just give every card for free since the Internet exists.
