Yes, I Really Couldn't Think of a Better Title than This

by kalizam , May 07 '02
Pros: Compact, Comprehensive, and Fun
Cons: A few small errors, too short, luck-heavy
Back in the good ol’ days, I collected the Pokemon Trading Cards like crazy. All my friends were into it, and we had a great time battling, trading, and calling the other one names when they were winning. The big problem is that the Pokemon TCG is...

A Noteworthy Example of the Pokémon Phenomenon

by arada392 , May 11 '01
Pros: Excellent, addictive gameplay; good graphics and sound.
Cons: Very short, shallow one-player game.
Warning! Long review ahead!

For a videogame player my age, saying that you play Pokémon games "just for the gameplay" is like saying you read Playboy magazine "just for the articles"; nobody believes you, no matter if what...

Pros: Interactive, Goal Oriented, Non-violent

I choose you Pikachu card

by tommy_lop Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Feb 16 '02
Pros: good trasition of the Pokemon trading card game
Cons: a bit short.
2 years ago the Pokemon trading card game was huge, while it's still big to the people who actually know how to play the game, has for me I have just been playing the game boy game. It's a lot of hassle to take care of a lot of cards, the gameboy game...

Better than spending your life savings on the cards...

by Slusy Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 17 '00
Pros: Excellent translation of card game, card art very well done
Cons: "Quest" is too short, some interface issues
I recently rented the Pokemon Trading Card Game (Pokemon TRG), because I'd played the game with actual cards, and I wanted to see how a Game Boy translation would compare to the real thing. I was quite impressed.

First of all, the interface...

Cash cow milk that's actually kinda sweet

by 32_Footsteps Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 03 '00
Pros: Cheap alternative to the cards, well-executed graphics
Cons: Easy, little replay value
Pokemon has taken over my life. I better just face the facts and admit this now. I've owned the original game for over a year now, and I still play it when I get the chance, at home and at work. I have easily spent over $300 fueling this addiction of...

Saves Money....?

by zenohjin , Feb 27 '01
Pros: Great for about an hour, maybe a little more or less.
Cons: Repetitive gameplay and lack of challenge.
Personally I'm really not a big fan of Pokemon cards. The fact that thousands of kids spent millions of dollars on these little square cut pieces of condensed cardboard didn't settle well with me either. So you can imagine what I was thinking when a...

It took me 18 hours to get a Haunter!

by Wavelength , Jul 06 '00
Pros: The Pokemon TCG is always good, and there are several improvements!
Cons: The AI is a bit too systematic, and the adventure is somewhat short.
After a couple of my friends decided to get out of the Pokemon TCG, opponents became scarcer. I went to the Pokemon League and found one battle the whole day. So, what to do? A couple of months later, Pokemon TCG for the Game Boy was released,...

"Save trees AND rob WotC of thousands? I'm IN!!"

by JeA_Roy , May 16 '00
Pros: Fun, anyone can play, deep strategy game. GBC enhanced.
Cons: Trading feature on GBC only. Low challenge for a strategy game.
O.K., so you've never seen the Pokemon video game before, or got dragged by some sugar hyped kid to the movie. But surely you have seen the large group of kids gathered around some tables certain times at Toys'R'Us, right??

What could be better?

by g106 , Jun 16 '00
Pros: Great Graphics, Good sound
Cons: only do card pop once with each gamepak
This game has a great concept. Instead of trying to collect all those cards and waste tons of money you can just buy the Pokemon Card Game and it has all the cards in it. The story starts out when you are summoned to the pokemon lab to try out a new...

Wow, They Think Children Are Going To Understand This? Not!

by kristalrose , Jul 23 '00
Pros: Another Pokemon Game (This could also be a con)
Cons: Difficult for children to understand, small, hard to read text.
We are the Pokemaniac family. Pokemaniac Mommy, Ash-Ketchum wannabe Son, tolerent Daddy, and Pikachu-is-cute Baby. We've played every Pokemon game put out by Nintendo so far. To kill time while we wait for the new additions, Pokemon Gold and Pokemon...

This game is just the card game, with lower costs

by Jmayer , Aug 11 '00
Pros: too many to say
Cons: you can only get 2 of each legendary card and the second copy of them comes on at a time when you beat the grand masters, and at random
Parents are going to say no to this product usually but there is one main thing to consider. You can either spend around $30 on this game and get all the cards plus new ones, or you can buy about $300 on the real cards, and you parents will say i won't...

Very addicting and fun!

by compro32 , Jul 12 '00
Pros: Great Gameplay, Fair Price, Great Re-play Value
Cons: That I can't stop playing!
When I first heard of this I thought nothing of it, but when I played it my opinion changed quickly. So I ran out and bought it for $22.99. At first it sounded kind of lame to collect Pokemon cards on a gameboy game. But I was wrong, its very...
