Pokemon Trainer Mission - Electronic Detector Will Guide You On 40 Missions Voice Light Instructions Collect 65 Pokemon

The media could not be loaded. I was honestly blown away by this product! I had to leave a review. My children love Pokémon, and one of my children in particular seems to have ADHD and I struggle to get him as much engaging activity as he needs throughout the day. I saw a review on YouTube comparing and contrasting three Poké ball toys, and this one looked like a winner… Man oh man, was it ever! I got one for my four-year-old son, and one for my six-year-old son, who I mentioned has ADHD. The four year-old did not like the toy much… I think he is a little bit young, and not as with the names of Pokémon was not a great fit for him. For my six-year-old, and my two older children who have begged for turns playing with this toy, it has been awesome! Briefly, let me describe how to play with this toy. You turn it on, and it begins telling your child that they are about to go on an adventure to explore and capture Pokémon to become a great Pokémon trainer. It reminds me of the “brain breaks” on YouTube because basically the narrator tells you you’re walking through a forest, or a field, or you’re swimming in the ocean, and stop! You’ve just seen a Pokémon! It tells you the name of the Pokémon, and in order to capture the Pokémon, you have to complete some kind of action such as shaking the Poké ball back-and-forth quickly, or turning around several times, or some other action that the sensor in the Poké ball will detect. Then you either capture the Pokémon, or the Pokémon escapes because you were not quick enough, etc. It is super entertaining both to the child and to anyone who was observing the child, lol. In our experience, the sensor works very well. My children have not become frustrated, and based on my own observation, when a Pokémon escapes it is because my child was just not following the instructions quickly / energetically enough for the sensor. Overall I highly recommend this for children between the ages of maybe 5 1/2 all the way through tween ages. I do not know yet about the replay value, but the Poké ball also does keep track of all the Pokémon you have captured, and will recite the list for you at the push-up a button. It also comes with a beautiful map that shows a “path” with the Pokémon that will be encountered along the way, you can check off the Pokémon as you capture them. Read more

This suprise for my son is his new favorite toy. It requires being aware of their surroundings and listening to directions. I'm glad it's simple and doesn't have a screen! Hours of fun on Xmas morning for a Pokemon LOVER. Read more

So much fun for my six year old Pokemon loving son! He has just started getting into Pokemon, so this was a great Christmas present for him. He could play right out of the package and has had a great time with it, even his 4 and 8 year old sisters have enjoyed playing with him. Read more

This item was meant as a gift, but I received it in a janky corrugated box held together by packing tape. Coupled with a label that looks like it's meant to replicate some kind of original packaging, you could tell this was some kind of knock off that was rickshawed together. Could have maybe looked past it if the product itself wasn't extremely annoying to play with. Tried it out before deciding to gift it, and if you don't interact with the product roughly every 3 seconds, it asks you the same question over and over. Easy decision to return. Read more

It's ok, but it is too scripted. Basically if you make one wrong answer, it will never guess it. And some of the questions are a little subjective. Like does it have spots, or does it have horns. Well these are anime characters, so they have illustration effects that may look like that, but they aren't actually horns or dots. We are pokemon fans too, so it's not like we are playing with something we have no background on. Still though, my son loves it. He kind of views it as a challenge to get it right. Thinking back to the electronic 21 Questions game, that one would blow you away every time. This one just doesn't have the same effect. It's too easy to get wrong. Read more

Impressive! It can really sense when and where you move and my 6 year old loves it...especially when it tells you to jump over tree roots and shake off the grass etc! Very fun! Read more
