Pokemancy is the art of using Pokémon cards for divinatory purposes.
Derived from the root Pokémon + the suffix mancy
-word-forming element of Greek origin meaning "divination by means of," from Old French -mancie, from Late Latin -mantia, from Greek manteia "oracle, divination," from mantis mantis "one who divines, a seer, prophet; one touched by divine madness," from mainesthai "be inspired," which is related to menos "passion, spirit," from PIE *mnyo-, suffixed form of root *men- (1) "to think," with derivatives referring to qualities and states of mind or thought.
In simple terms, my own, so to speak, Pokemancy is more than just the use of cards in a divinatory setting; it is an entire system all unto itself. As Pokémon grows as an egregore, so do ways to incorporate it into magical practices.
