Great way to start into Pokemon, but still leaves us with questions

2008-07-01
My son and I love this starter set. We've played a few times. However, now we're ready to start adding to the set with boosters. I've purchased some boosters, but they don't seem to come with energy cards, which are essential to the gameplay!

This starter set gives you some Water and Punch energy cards, which are great to start with and fit just fine with the starting mini-decks of this set, but that leaves more than half the booster cards we've purchased un-useable because they're of a different type. And the instructions don't really explain anything beyond basic gameplay. I was hoping that a starter kit like this would at least answer beginner questions like "how do I expand my deck?", "how do I play with other types of cards", "should I focus on a specific energy type, or what?" etc.

I'll probably have to end up doing research online or finding a book we can study to figure the rest of the game out. Or go to one of those meet-ups, I guess...

Everything my daughter wanted

This set is complete and has everything a kid needs to play REAL pokemon. I was amazed to see how many kids who have been avid pokemon traders for years, had never seen the complete set including rule book, damage markers ans the like. Most kids didn't realize just how the game was intended to be played.

The Pokemon Trading Card Game has been well used thus far. It is a great starter set that provides a base to build upon. Great way to learn the Pokemon Game!

	Dr. Toy's Smart Play . How To Raise A Child With a High PQ Play Quotient Review: "...Play is the work of the young. Through play, children grow -- physically, emotionally and cognitively. "Dr. Toy," Stevanne Auerbach, Ph.D., helps readers to find the toys and playthings that will best advance this growth. This comprehensive book demonstrates a deep understanding of the different needs children have at every phase of their development and provides specific guidelines for choosing toys, computer software, musical instruments and a host of other items children can play with.. "
	Dora the Explorer Mr. Face Plush Backpack Review: My daughter is a big Dora fan and uses this backpack to carry around her favorite toys and books, which is why I gave it 5 stars for educational value. My friend's daughter has it as well, and love hers too. We've had it 6 months now and it's holding up just fine. The map opens up for an added bonus. My daughter likes to wear it and sing the backpack song from the show.
	Star Wars Episode III: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet Wow, do I ever wish they had this out when I was a kid! I bought it, and my wife, kids and I have all been playing with it. It has a chest box with several buttons that plays about 5 of Darth's quotes from the movies, or you can switch it to voice changer. The voice changer is fun! It has 3 different levels of depth for changing the voice. ... A must for Star Wars Geeks!!!!
