Absolutely not. Respect the game, play with real cards.
Playing with fake Pokemon cards is a no-go for any official events or tournaments. They're super strict about authenticity to keep the competition fair. But for a goofy game night with pals? Go for it, just make sure everyone's cool with it.
I've played with fake cards before when I was just starting out because I didn't want to invest in real ones yet. Didn't really affect our fun, but as I got more into the game, I definitely felt the urge to get the real ones. There's something about having authentic cards that just feels right.
