International Pokemon TCG games work pretty much the same as local games, but with a big emphasis on language. Since Pokemon TCG is played worldwide, cards are available in multiple languages. When playing internationally, players often use English as a common language or have translations ready for non-English cards. The gameplay and rules stay the same, so it all comes down to strategy and knowing your deck!
They don't work - too many language barriers. Stick to local games.
Played in an international tournament once, and it was awesome! Everyone was super respectful about language differences, and judges were there to help with card translations. The vibe was competitive but friendly, and I got to see some unique strategies!
