Construction: Action is the name of a constructable Pokémon-based application for the e-Reader. Using a large variety of compatible cards for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, a player can combine different stages and playable characters to create their own mini "action game". The games are not saved to e-Reader memory and all cards must be re-scanned once the player exits the application.

In Construction: Action, a player uses their chosen player character to navigate one or more stages (or "maps") where they have to capture Pokémon (usually the one(s) found on the card scanned) by throwing Poké Balls at them. The different player characters have varying running speeds, jumping abilities, number of Poké Balls, and occasionally different background music. The game is completed when every Pokémon in every map has been captured. A player can lose by falling into a bottomless pit or by touching an enemy Pokémon.

In every Construction: Action game, the player must scan a "player" card and at least one "map" card. The game can be played with only one map card, but a total of six may be added to the game at any time. The current map cards can be played in the order scanned or they can be shuffled.

Cards compatible with Construction: Action can be found in the Aquapolis and Skyridge expansions.
