Pokemon TCG online or physical?

I personally love playing with physical cards with my friends and was never able to get the digital app but what do you think? 

the trading card game will always (in my opinion at least) will always be better than the digital vers. yes the digital version always makes things more accessible to people who are usually online, but i feel it takes away the integrity and the nostalgia someone will carry the physical card game with 

I’d really love physical TCGs too, but I can't buy the packs or boosters, and Pokémon TCG isn't very popular where I live—it would be really hard to find people to play with. So, for now, I just play the digital version.

I'm in a similar boat as @gacorkang88 rn- me n my brother collected a bunchhh of cards irl, however we live in a rly quaint n dead town (not many hobby based clubs, not even dnd or otherwise, so tht's out da picture currently). I still love sharin my interest w whoever will listen, but not many of my existent OR new friends have real collections or even j the desire to battle other than sharin cool art at most maybe, so I stick to TCG digitally. Aka I love both, but I find most luck online/on the app rn findin similar minded ppl! 😛
