I bought this for my friend’s 7-year-old daughter, and she absolutely loved it! The game is a lot of fun, with great quality pieces that are all included in the set.It’s a perfect game for Pokémon lovers, it is easy for kids to learn and enjoy. The whole family can join in, which adds to the fun. Highly recommend this as a gift for young Pokémon fans!

The media could not be loaded. I bought this game for my 7-year-old daughter who loves Pokémon and she LOVED it! She isn’t even super into all the official technical ways to play and to battle, but she still has so much fun playing this game in her own way. For those who wants to play the official way there are detailed instructions as well as tutorial videos they give you links to. All of the pieces of the game are good quality. I paid $15 for it, which I felt was a fair value. I would recommend this game for Pokémon lovers.

Got this for my son for Christmas and he loves it!! He's been collecting cards for about a year now so I figured it's time to teach us both how to battle. They make it so easy to learn with the hardboard battle mat, 3 premade decks, coin, hit counters, instruction manual and more. Most importantly you start with a Pikachu electric deck and the other player with the cinderace fire deck. Each card in these decks are numbered so you start by putting them in order. Then just follow your individual manual book for that certain deck and it just walkes you threw how to play, with the manual already knowing what's going to happen next! It's awesome and super easy to learn! Then once you get it down you can switch to using the blue, Eevee darkness deck that's a bit more complicated and then you just get better and better and it all becomes very easy and a blast to play! If your kiddo is wanting to learn how to battle in Pokemon then I say this is the best way to go, hands down!!

My husband bought this so my daughter and I could learn how to play pokemon. We have been having so much fun learning everything and this set makes it so much easier. It has a board and step by step guide on how to play. You can even play the cards in order for young players. If you want your kid to pick up playing Pokemon, get them this to start!

This is the perfect set for a beginner wanting to learn how to play the pokémon card game. All the cards were in good condition.

Its 3 decks, they are simple, and not good, they each only have 1 card thats actually strong, or what i call them, win conditions, which are the 3 V cards, everything else in the decks suck asides from trainers.BUT. That does not mean this isnt worth it, if anything its actually amazing, you get a total of 180 cards, and since its all type of cards, these are great building blocks for your own decks. I was able to not only edit an older deck i made and made it way better, but was also able to make 3 new good decks by attaching more win conditions to the decks.all 3 of the battle academies are great for people who like making multiple types of decks, since you get so many trainers and energy cards.5/5 stars

It is so nice have a board to set our cards up on. I play pokemon with my 7 year old andhaving to unfold the flimsy paper that comes in a deck box was lame. So happy they came out with an actual board. The beginners decks that come with it are just that, a beginners deck; but so nice to have when teaching a child to play for the first time. Great for learning to play.
