Pokemon Battle Academy Board Game

Grandson said it was fun to play

This is the perfect set for a beginner wanting to learn how to play the pokémon card game. All the cards were in good condition.

My grandson love pokemon

I bought this for my friend’s 7-year-old daughter, and she absolutely loved it! The game is a lot of fun, with great quality pieces that are all included in the set.It’s a perfect game for Pokémon lovers, it is easy for kids to learn and enjoy. The whole family can join in, which adds to the fun. Highly recommend this as a gift for young Pokémon fans!

I wanted to get my wife, who loves Pokemon but hasn't really been a gamer, some Pokemon cards and wow - if you're coming in from the outside, the trading card game is pretty overwhelming. I wasn't even clear what all I would need for the two of us to play.This set is a really good introduction. The tutorial is exactly that, and the decks are pre-stacked to work with it, which is a really nice touch. The cards are numbered on the faces, so you could re-stack if you wanted to, and you can sort the decks back out into the three originals if you try mixing and matching.Moving beyond the tutorial, these particular decks depend pretty heavily on luck. I got into a bit of a rabbit hole and have learned that the larger community builds decks that have many more cards allowing searching and extra draws, which can improve the consistency of a deck's performance quite a lot. So, consider your audience - if your players aren't really going to be sophisticated about building or using a deck with a lot of tricky functions, great! If they are - well, this is still really inexpensive and a legitimately good introduction but I think middle-school-age children and older will outgrow it pretty fast.

The media could not be loaded. I bought this game for my 7-year-old daughter who loves Pokémon and she LOVED it! She isn’t even super into all the official technical ways to play and to battle, but she still has so much fun playing this game in her own way. For those who wants to play the official way there are detailed instructions as well as tutorial videos they give you links to. All of the pieces of the game are good quality. I paid $15 for it, which I felt was a fair value. I would recommend this game for Pokémon lovers.

Its 3 decks, they are simple, and not good, they each only have 1 card thats actually strong, or what i call them, win conditions, which are the 3 V cards, everything else in the decks suck asides from trainers.BUT. That does not mean this isnt worth it, if anything its actually amazing, you get a total of 180 cards, and since its all type of cards, these are great building blocks for your own decks. I was able to not only edit an older deck i made and made it way better, but was also able to make 3 new good decks by attaching more win conditions to the decks.all 3 of the battle academies are great for people who like making multiple types of decks, since you get so many trainers and energy cards.5/5 stars

It is so nice have a board to set our cards up on. I play pokemon with my 7 year old andhaving to unfold the flimsy paper that comes in a deck box was lame. So happy they came out with an actual board. The beginners decks that come with it are just that, a beginners deck; but so nice to have when teaching a child to play for the first time. Great for learning to play.
