In terms of TCGs, Magic will always be supreme. Pokemon definitely has better mainline stuff though.

I've only played Magic, I'll be honest. I have a bunch of Pokemon cards from when I was a kid but that was just because I thought they looked cool, not because I knew how to play

While MTG isnt as good as it used to be, its mechanically the best of the 3 in my opinion
Yugioh is heavily combo deck ridden. Most games are over in 2 turns at a high level, with drawing into a combo being the primary way of doing so
Pokemon is the best collector's item of the 3, though its PSA obsession is a little sad compared to MTG. It also has a very interesting metagame regularly, but mechanically its much simpler and has many more 'tutor'/search cards, which can be a positive or negative thing depending on your personal opinion, but I believe it makes decks less diverse as nearly every deck will want to run 'Search for [CARDTYPE]' very often.

Hiya, there! I'm Gonzalo2, but you can just call me Gonz! (Don't ask about what happened to Gonzalo1.) I'm just an ADHD theater nerd who has too much time on my hands and too little sleep! This is my original account, but you’ll probably see me on my main accounts, Gonzalo3, and Gonzalo5. Don’t ask why I have so many alts.
Pokemon: Cool creatures that you tame and battle. Magic: Cool creatures that you conjure from magic spells. Yu-Gi-Oh: ???
All I know about Yu-Gi-Oh is I USE POT OF GREED TO DRAW TWO CARDS FROM MY DECK, and that they literally go to hell for losing the game. Although the first thing is banned I'm pretty sure.

Its a very simple card. Its a spell card, which in Yugioh terms simply means it can be played at any time on your turn when something else isnt already happening (such as another card doing something or a combat phase). Its text is only 3 words 'Draw 2 cards'. The issue of power lies simply in the fact that with Yugioh being a resourceless game, card advantage is HUGE, and its free. So its always extremely powerful no matter what

Oh, by far MTG. Look, you can argue, but…it’s irresistible. There’s so much to choose from — a wide variety, as well, and. Even its own players can hate it as much as they want, but they’re still playing it, aren’t they?
Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh have always struck me as building blocks towards Magic. Like, everyone I know who began with one of those two ends up addicted to Magic sooner or later.

I will always play PTCG over any other TCG. Pokémon has been so immersive in its experience that I will never stop loving it dearly. I not only play PTCG extremely competitively, but I also collect cards, games, and plushies. With way over 2000 cards in my collection and even more hours playing the TCG, Pokémon has made an impact on me more than one might think. I met my significant other at a Pokémon regional over 3 years ago. The comunity that surrounds Pokemon is one of the most welcoming I have ever seen. It's a game that people from 4 to the day they die can play.
Which TCG is superior? Argue here.

I can’t believe people made a whole thread over my question!
For those questioning what Yu-Gi-Oh is, it’s basically very downgraded MTG.
