The Pokémon Trading Figure Game is scheduled for release in Europe, Australia, and Southeast Asia in fall 2006, and in America and Japan in 2007. The two-player game is played with collectible Pokémon Trading Figures made by Kaiyodo. It shares some characteristics with other collectible miniature games, like Mage Knight and HeroClix, as well as with the Pokémon Trading Card Game. More than 40 figures will be available at the initial launch.
All information may be subject to change before the Trading Figure Game's official release.

Starter sets
One-player starter sets are planned to 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 two-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.
Two-player starter sets are planned to be a combination of two one-player starter sets with an additional figure.
Booster packs
Booster packs are planned to contain two random Pokémon figures without bases.
Expansion sets
Mechanics
The objective of the game is to be the first to land on one's opponent's Goal space on the playmat. To do this, players move Pokémon figures around on the playmat itself. Each turn, a Pokémon can move from one adjacent spot to another as many times as it has Move Points. Besides the Goal space, the playmat tentatively has a Pokémon Center space, a bench, and a battlefield. Pokémon start on the bench, and move to the Battlefield. If they lose a battle, they go to the Pokémon Center spot. They do not return to the bench until another Pokémon is sent to the Pokémon Center.
Bases
Pokémon figures can be removed from their bases. This allows the Pokémon to switch between black and white bases so the two players' Pokémon can be distinguished.
Spinning and Battles
Each figure has a spinning mechanism and a number of colored areas it can land on. When Pokémon are on adjacent spots, 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 fewer stars, and has a special effect on either the player's Pokémon or the opposing Pokémon. White beats weaker Whites, and will knock the opposing Pokémon out, forcing it 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 as of yet unknown. They are not expected to be the same cards from the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
