LEGO Pokémon SMART Play sets officially revealed

A full assortment of LEGO Pokémon SMART Play sets has been revealed, as SMART Play ventures into its second theme following Star Wars earlier this year.

After the first three retail LEGO Pokémon sets for an older audience were launched earlier this year, the theme is now confirmed to expand with more affordable SMART Play-compatible and All-in-One models.

“We are thrilled to bring together two beloved brands that are known worldwide," said Julia Goldin, Chief Marketing and Product Officer at the LEGO Group. "For the first time ever, LEGO Pokémon creatures respond to children’s actions: meaning fans can build, train and interact with their LEGO Pokémon creatures through hands-on, imaginative play that encourages creativity, confidence and storytelling.

“LEGO SMART Play is an expansion of our existing LEGO System-in-Play, and we are excited to integrate it into our latest LEGO Pokémon sets. It’s all about inviting children to explore, experiment and bring their own ideas to their adventures!”

These new models are all scheduled to be released on August 1 and include 40887 Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night, which is numbered as a gift-with-purchase but has not been confirmed as one at the time of writing.

"Pokémon has always been about the joy of discovery and connection, and we see every day how powerful imagination can be when it’s nurtured and given the space to grow," adds Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International.

"Working with the LEGO Group and its SMART Brick technology brings those shared values to life in a new, interactive way. Together, we’re giving young Trainers a hands-on way to engage with the world of Pokémon, as well as opening up new possibilities for a new generation of fans.”

The SMART Play functionality in these sets includes the ability to interact with and train the Pokémon included in each, and then battle them against one another. Read on to take a closer look at all of the newly-revealed sets.
