Bus commercial

A commercial is shown when a Pikachu enters a bus. All other Pokémon are shown on the bus. The bus driver exits the bus and pushes a button. The bus, and thus all Pokémon in it are crushed into a Game Boy. The bus driver then picks up the system and starts playing.

Trading comercial

In this commercial, a young boy is playing Pokémon Blue, but can't seem to get some Pokémon. However, Pokémon then come from a friend's game into his, and vice-versa. The bus driver from the previous commercial makes a cameo in this commercial, watching the Pokémon cross the line between their apartments.

Poképark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure!

A commercial for the game shows Pikachu and some others standing near a hole. However, the others accidentally push Pikachu into the hole, and a Mew appears. Pikachu falls to the ground beneath the hole, and begins running with a Ponyta, jumping on a ski lift, running through a chilly town, performing with a Mr. Mime, talking to a Croagunk and Shaymin, dancing with a Venusaur and Buneary, and racing against others. The commercial then shifts to an Empoleon surfing and a Pelipper flying. Pikachu then reappears on a Lapras and with a Drifblim flying off into the horizon to finish off the commercial. Another commercial with different scenes was also aired in the United States.

Commercials for sets of the Trading Figure Game were produced during its short lifespan.
