Pokémon tokens
Depending on the edition of the game, there is two different sets of tokens available:
- Regular tokens edition
- Pewter tokens edition
Special rules
If desired, these rules are to be used when rolling doubles. These replace the standard doubles rules.
Pokémon Power Doubles
Rolling doubles allows a player to do one of two options: roll again as normal, or activate a Pokémon Power based on the dice. If the power is activated, the player's turn ends. These powers cannot be used if the player rolled doubles in order to get out of jail.
Dice result | Pokémon Power | Effect |
---|---|---|
Double 1s | "Teleport like #150 Mewtwo and go anywhere." | The player can go directly to any space, except Jail. A player that passes GO using this power collects $200. |
Double 2s | "Rest like #35 Clefairy and collect $200 from the Bank." | The player collects $200 from the Bank. |
Double 3s | "Use Leech Seed like #01 Bulbasaur and collect $50 from each player." | The player collects $50 from each player. |
Double 4s | "Meet Professor Oak" | The player draws a Professor Oak card. |
Double 5s | "Fight in a Trainer Battle" | The player draws a Trainer Battle card. |
Double 6s | "Attack to control one of another player’s gym lots:" | The player selects a Pokémon that an opposing player owns that is not part of a color group. Each player rolls both dice. The player who rolls the higher number takes (or keeps) control of the lot. In the event of a tie, both players roll again. |
The color-groups
Brock's Gym | Misty’s Gym | Lt. Surge’s Gym | Erika’s Gym | Sabrina’s Gym | Koga’s Gym | Blaine’s Gym | Giovanni’s Gym |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Geodude | Staryu | Voltorb | Victreebel | Kadabra | Koffing | Growlithe | Nidoqueen |
Onix | Starmie | Electabuzz | Tangela | Mr. Mime | Muk | Ponyta | Nidoking |
Horsea | Raichu | Vileplume | Venomoth | Weezing | Rapidash |
Errors
- The game refers to Pokémon Dollar and Pokémon Center as "Poké Money" and "Poké Center", respectively.
- The colors of Poké Marts (red) and Pokémon Centers (blue) are inverted (Poké Marts are usually blue and Pokémon Centers are usually red).
