While there are no cards currently restricted within the Standard and Unlimited Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) formats, there have been some recent updates to the list of banned Pokémon cards in the Expanded format fo 2023. The overall goal that The Pokémon Company has for the Expanded format style is to allow players to have the option of several additional cards in tournaments than can be utilized in Standard format play and includes every card since Pokémon Black and White. Having this many cards available means that naturally there are going to be some which are either overpowered or might have other reasons for being banned from games.
