Have any of you played Pokemon Trading Card Game? I got a Training Kit package for my son as a stocking filler for Christmas. We played though it today and then had a couple of games. It's quite limited as its main focus is to hand hold you both through the game (the packs are even strategically stacked in a particular order so that the cards and paper guide align up like a script. It's left us hungry for more.
Any suggestions on what we do next? Do we buy a couple of 60 card decks or something?

Don't worry guys, I've discovered Pokémon Trading Card Game Online!
How does it compare to the original Game Boy game?
Oh my goodness, I forgot about this! I don't know. Never played it. Although, a quick look on Google seems to indicate that it's very decent! May have to get this on my SNES mini right now!
The free download I've been playing is good, although I a bit overwhelmed regarding the different card pack themes. I'm not sure what you do with them. Whether you can mix them up and build decks I'm not sure yet. But the game pits you against some AI challenge paths which are good for learning the game, well for me anyway. You can get it on your PC, Mac or tablet. I did manage to get it on my Galaxy 8, but the text is so tiny.
I'll certainly have a look. And I know what you mean about it being confusing now. I used to collect the 1st gen and the Team Rocket packs as a kid and now there's like a load of different packs and themes, I can't keep up haha
Caught up with some mates last night and played a bunch of games.
Escape the Dark Castle was great, like a choose your own adventure as you cooperatively try to beat the obstacles preventing your freedom.
The Mind is one of those simple ideas that are brilliant. You have cards numbered 1-100 and have to place them in sequential order - without talking about it!
Mint Works I've mentioned before but they didn't seem to love it as much as me.
Dropmix is made by Harmonix (yes, that Harmonix) and Hasbro but has been discontinued in the UK so Amazon etc are shifting stock cheap.
Basically, you're asked to drop playing cards onto a Bluetooth reader to score points but you can't play cards of lower value.
As you drop the cards on, it creates a new mix, so you'll have the drums from Take Me Out, the guitar from The Jackson Five and the vocals from Down With The Sickness, which sounds horrendous, but there's some kind of alchemy that makes it a modern miracle!
Thankfully, the game is fun too with loads of modes like co-op, versus, party and freestyle.
Was round my brothers today hooking up my old AV setup for him which took a couple of hours but I managed a few minutes away to take some sneaky snaps of his frankly bonkers board game collection
