The Pokémon Trading Figure Game is a game scheduled for release in Europe, Australia, and Southeast Asia in Fall 2006, and in America and Japan in 2007. The game is played with collectable Pokémon Trading Figures, made by Kaiyodo Co.. Over 40 figures will be available at the initial launch.
Products
Starter Sets
Both Starter Sets, Flamethrower and Riptide, include three Pokémon figures with bases, one Pokémon trainer figure with base, a two-sided playmat with a green 6-on-6 arena on one side and an orange 3-on-3 quick start arena on the other, a 2-sided collector's sheet with a how-to-play guide on one side and a figure checklist on the other, a rulebook, and three trainer cards.
Booster Packs
Booster Packs contain two random Pokémon figures without bases. There are four packaging designs, featuring Pikachu, Charizard, Groudon and Feraligatr.
Figures Available
Pokémon
Groudon is also likely to become a Pokémon Trading Figure, since it appears on one of the booster pack designs.
Trainers
Mechanics
The objective of the game is to be the first to land on your opponent's Goal space on the playmat. To do this, the Pokémon move around on the playmat itself, although how this is managed is unclear. Besides the Goal space, the playmat has a Pokémon Center space, a bench, and a battlefield.
Bases
Pokémon figures can be removed from their bases. The exact purpose of this is unknown, but it could be to allow evolution or simply to switch between black and white bases so the two players' Pokémon can be distinguished.
Spinning
Each figure has a spinning mechanism and a number of colored areas it could land on. Both players will spin Pokémon and they will have a battle. Blue beats all and the Pokémon dodges. Purple beats White and any Purples with less stars, and have special effects. White beats weaker Whites, and will knock the opposing Pokémon out, forcing them to move to the Pokémon Center space. Red is a miss and loses to everything else. Any ties result in nothing happening.
Trainer cards
The purpose of these are unknown. Assumably they not the same cards as those from the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
