Pokémon Phenomenon Lives On

Posted: 6/8/2011

Popular toy brand expands with new ways to play.

(NAPSI)—A new line of toys brings to life the experience of a Pokémon™ Trainer: to catch, trade and battle Pokémon.

The toys coincide with the successful launch of the Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version video games for Nintendo DS™ and TV animation series on Cartoon Network. More than 150 all-new characters from the brand-new Unova region are found in the video games, TV animation, trading card game and toy line.

The innovative new toy line from JAKKS Pacific incorporates the many ways kids like to play with Pokémon as inspired by the TV animation:

• Skill and action play, featuring the Pokémon Catcher and Pop ‘n’ Battle Launcher and target. The Catcher allows kids to catch micro-figures using a unique, retractable Poké Ball. The Pop ‘n’ Battle Launcher allows kids to launch and battle their favorite characters in a head-to-head competition with friends.

• Action figure play featuring figures and play sets based on the all-new characters from the Unova region.

• Trainer role play items and a collection of plush characters.

You can find the new toys at major retailers nationwide. For more information, visit www.jakks.com or call (877) 875-2557.
