Advantages: Bright bouncy fun

Disadvantages: where are all the 'pokemon centres'?

Discover the joy of monopoly all over again with yet another themed monopoly set.

Aside from fighting over who wants to be pikachu out of the 6 little rubber statuettes replacing the iron, dog etc, you get to learn the names of some very weird creatures indeed.

So Whats different? you have Poke Money instead of pounds, poke centres and poke marts replacing the hotels and houses and chance and community chess are now the Professor Oak and Trainer Battle cards.

If you through a double you can choose whether to throw again or use the 'power doubles' ie collecting extra money (whose going to turn that down!), attacking to control a site or 'teleport' like Mewtwo.

We enjoyed it immensly after we'd figured out which parts related to the usual board (oh so thats a utility!)and the cats really enjoyed the box it came in as well as trying to eat the money.

One small problem, theres not enough 'houses' in this case 'Pokemon centres' you would have though they would have figured this out but we found out sweets worked almost as well.

Harmless fun that almost made up for the lack of christmas television.
