Video summary

The video showcases the exciting new LEGO Pokémon sets that allow fans to officially become LEGO Pokémon trainers through interactive play. The unboxing reveals a massive Poké Ball-shaped container filled with various building pieces, including two halves of a LEGO Pokémon Stadium designed for battles. Inside, viewers are introduced to specific sets like the Charizard versus Jolton Ultimate Battle and Cubone and Gengar's Spooky Showdown, each featuring detailed minifigures and accessories such as healing sprays and Poké Balls. The host expresses immense excitement over the sheer number of Pokémon available to battle with and highlights the intricate design details that bring these characters to life in brick form. A key feature emphasized throughout the video is the Smart Play system, which integrates digital elements into the physical LEGO experience using Smart Bricks and Smart Tags. In the Charizard set, a Smart Brick is included to interact with the figure's built-in tag, enabling sound effects like roaring, flying, and even healing sounds when virtual items are applied. The host demonstrates how these bricks can make Pokémon talk to each other or react to training commands, creating an immersive audio-visual experience. For sets that do not include a Smart Brick, such as the Cubone and Gengar set, the video explains that users can transfer a brick from another compatible set to activate the tags, ensuring all figures can still participate in the interactive gameplay. Beyond the physical construction, the video introduces an online competition where builders can design their own custom berries using LEGO's digital building tool on kids.lego.com. Participants must sign into the LEGO Insiders Club and submit their creations via email for a chance to win special promotional tags. The host walks through the submission process step-by-step, highlighting how this digital component adds another layer of engagement for fans who want to nurture their own virtual Pokémon. Additionally, the video notes that while some sets lack Smart Bricks, they still offer rich storytelling opportunities through their unique tags and thematic designs, encouraging collectors to seek out all-in-one bundles for the full interactive experience. The demonstration concludes with a simulated battle between Charizard and Gengar, where the host uses healing sprays and strategic commands to win the match, illustrating how players can engage in turn-based combat within the LEGO universe. The final scenes show the fully assembled training grounds, including mushroom lamps, bonsai trees, and treasure chests, all connected to form a cohesive play environment. Viewers are encouraged to visit the provided link to explore more about becoming a LEGO Pokémon trainer themselves, with the video ending on a high note of enthusiasm for the innovative blend of traditional building and modern digital interactivity that defines this new line of sets.

Did you know that you can actually battle with the brand new LEGO Pokémon set, which would make you an official LEGO Pokémon trainer? But before we get there, let's see what's inside this box. Huge thanks to the LEGO Group for sponsoring this video. [music] All right, first let's just take a look at the box. It's a giant Poké Ball. As you can see, we have the Lego and Pokémon logos on the bottom. And we open this up just like this. [laughter] Wa! This box looks insane. It says you're the trainer now. Okay. And there is something else inside of this box, which is blowing my mind right now. If I open this up, there looks to be a Lego Pokemon Stadium. Here's one half of it. And I'm going to connect it with the other half. Keep this. Says make your choice with a bunch of other Lego Pokémon on here. This is cool. Look how cool that is. Okay, that means there should be something on the other side of this box. And on here, we have some other Lego Pokémon that you can take a look at as well. Look at that. There's so many Lego Pokémon to battle with. I'm so excited. Okay, now let's connect this, which is going to be the exact spot where the Lego Pokémon are going to battle. Okay, I just connected it. Wow, just look at this. This is where the Lego Pokémon are going to do their battles. You can see the spots for it. We have the cool Lego Poké Ball in the center. This is really awesome. And I love that they included that in the box. Now, I know you've been looking at this over here. This box we have to lift up and see what's inside. And we're going to find out what Lego sets we're going to be building. I feel like everyone watching is going to know before me. Almost there. The first one is going to be Charizard versus Jolon Ultimate Battle. Look at that. Charizard and Jolon right here. And the second one is Cubone and Gengar's spooky showdown. I love it because of the lore behind Cubone. And then just look at Gengar. Look at that. Look at the Lego Cubone and Gengar. I can't wait to build this one. All right. Well, let's first start with our first set and let's open it up. The Charizard versus Jolon Ultimate Battle. Ooh. So, right off the bat, there is already at the top two smart bricks. And we'll dive into this a little bit later in the video, but these are what brings your Lego Pokémon to life, which [music] is really cool. And inside, we have bag four, bag three, bag five, bag six. Wo, there's a lot of bags in here. Bag seven, bag two, bag one. Now, inside of this box over here, we have another box. And it looks like where you will charge your smart bricks. And it comes with a USB to USBC where you would be charging it. We have another bag inside. Oh, Charizard wings and a couple of other things in here. Oh, this one's thick. What's this? All right. Inside of that bag was our lovely instruction manuals. One of the instructions is for the smart brick. Shows you exactly what to do. There's an app for it. Oh, there's an app that you can get. All right. I will be downloading that app. Then we have three different manuals. You have one with Charizard over here. And it shows that you need the bags 1 2 3 and four. So we're going to grab that to build him. The place where they battle. This is bag number five. And Jolton is going to be bag number six and seven. [laughter] Let's go in order and build Charizard with bags 1 2 3 and four. And I'm just going to quickly go through these instructions and we'll see Charizard once he's done. And then inside this bag there's two mini bags. It's always the most fun part is getting all similar pieces together, arranging them so it's much easier to build. We got a Pokéball. So, we got the Lego Pokéball done and the Lego healing spray. Now, while the other me is building that Lego set, I want to talk to you about a huge thing happening, which is the berry competition. Now, berries and Pokémon are really important because the job of berries is to heal your Pokémon or nurture them. And this digital competition is to create your own Lego Pokemon berry. Here's how to do it. You want to go to kids.lego.com. And once you're there, you can hit the search button at the bottom here and just type in Pokémon. Once you see Pokémon, you can select Pokémon and the competition is going to be right here. There are three specific steps that you need to do. First one is sign into Lego Insiders Club. Step two, you're going to build a berry that your Pokémon will love with the digital building tool. And by the way, the prize is a special Oruron Berry promo [music] tag. So, this is pretty cool. I definitely want to enter this myself. So, once you're in step two, here we go. We're going to build. And I'm actually going to build my own right now. So, here we go. Uh, let's see. How are we going to build this? All right. I think I've made my berry. So, once you create your berry, all you have to do is then hit done, submit, and then what you're going to do is enter a grown-up's email address right over here, which I'm going to enter mine. And once you fill out your email, all you have to do is just hit send. And just like that, you'll get a confirmation email telling you about the submission for the berry. And all you have to do is then click submit competition, which will bring you back to the page and it will say your child is in the competition. So, that's how you enter the berry competition. Charizard smart tag is getting placed in. We're on step number 28. Real fun fact, the smart brick actually interacts with this smart tag. That way it could make the Charizard sound effects when you are battling and playing with it. So really important step. Boom. Bag one done. Woo! The Charizard Flame Tail is complete. Time for these to get on. CHARIZARD. [screaming] WE did it. Lego Charizard. So, here is Lego Charizard. And if you want to make it a smart brick, all you have to simply have to do, the instruction manual shows it, but you just kind of pop out this bottom part here like this. Take your smart brick, add the cover onto it, and now you can hear the smart brick in action. They said, [laughter] and here's Charizard flying. There is Lego Charizard in action for everybody. Look how amazing Lego Charizard looks. I mean, this thing is incredible. Look at the tail. The flame on its tail. Its mouth opens up. And then we have the wings which move back and forth. Honestly, really cool. It's absolutely massive. Lego Charizard for the win. Look at this. On to building the next one. All right, now it's time to build the next Lego part for this set. Here we go. Bag number five. We are making some crazy progress here. If you take almost this little training course we built for Charizard, check this out. The moment you put it next to it and interact with it, you'll hear the sound. Ready? Ain't that crazy? What? It's making the sounds. So, a few things with this Charizard smart brick. If you take this healing spray and you apply it next to Charizard, listen to the sound. It's healing. It's actually healing. Are you kidding me? This is so cool. >> They go I'm sorry. That is so cool that they could actually do that. That is amazing. Good job, Charizard. Get some well- rested sleep now. Let's see what happens when you put him to sleep. >> Bro, this is insane. These smart bricks are like the coolest thing ever. Coolest ever. Next, we're going to build Lego Jolon with bags numbers six and seven. Jolton smart tag. And this is your smart brick cover here. So you'd put a smart brick normally in here, but [music] because we don't have a smart brick right now, boom. So you just pop this off when you want to do your smart brick stuff. Bag number seven. It's coming together slowly but surely. Freck legs. There it is. Jolon. Woo. Now, let's check out its smart brick. [music] See the noises it makes. All right. So, here's what it looks like with the smart brick attached. Here is Lego Jolton. How cool is this? It's exactly how I would imagine Jolton [music] to be because it's an electric typing. It has everything so finely detailed. All the spikiness [music] of its electricity type here. I love it. It is an electric tape. Let me know if this is your favorite evolution or not. Wow. Let's see what it looks like when it goes into training. And let's see if Jolion and Charizard can talk. [screaming] >> What were they just saying to each other? Here's set one completed. We have the Jolton, the Charizard, and the little area where they can train. I think it's very sick. All right, let's move on to the next set. The next Lego set is Cubone and Gengar's Spooky Showdown. I'm really excited to build this one. This Lego set has 782 pieces. Look at this. I can't wait to see what they [music] sound like. Let's open up and see what's inside. We'll be doing Lego Cubone first, followed up with bags 2, three, and four for Lego Gengar. Bags number five and six, basically a Lego training facility. And bag number seven is this really nice tree. I like it. Kind of like martial arts [music] on a tree. So, let's do Cubone. So, that's bag number one. Also, a quick note, this specific set doesn't come with smart bricks. [music] However, it does have the smart tags. So, all you have to do is just take a smart brick from another set and put it on the smart tag, and you'll get the noises and the Lego Pokémon cries for these specific ones. [music] All right. Look at that Lego Ultra Ball. Boom. By the way, let me know when you build your Lego, how do you organize your pieces? I'm very curious. Let me know in the comments. Now, while the other Mi is building, let me tell you a little bit about the smart play system. One of the coolest things about these LEGO sets is the smart play system. It's not just this brick alone. There are also smart tags that the brick can interact with when it is near a tag. And that's when the really cool stuff happens. Now, once the brick is in, the Lego Pokemon truly do come to life. You can nurture them. You can train them exactly like how we were doing when I was showing off the sets. And the really interesting thing is what it does depends on the Pokémon. If the Pokémon's got legs, you can hear it walk. If it can fly, you can hear it fly. Something really cool that I didn't even get to witness is water type swim. And then some Lego Pokémon like Gengar hovers makes the hovering sound. But I have two favorite actions I wanted to talk to you about. My first one is just putting the Lego Pokemon to sleep and listening to how they sound. Another one of my favorites is putting two Pokémon with Lego smart bricks in it next to each other and they start reacting to each other and talking. Well, speaking in their own cries, but that's the one that really makes me laugh. >> What were they just saying to each other? Now, one thing that you should know is that the smart brick only comes in the all-in-one sets like the Charizard versus Jolon Ultimate Battle and another one like the training house with Pikachu. Everything else, like the Cubone and Gengar spooky showdown, don't come with the smart brick, but they do have their own tags that you could take a smart brick and put it into. So, I definitely suggest that if you're going for a Lego Pokémon set that you definitely grab an all-in-one so that way you can have two Pokémon interacting. And that's what the smart brick is going to be interacting with. Very cool. Oh, that's looking so good right now. That is looking so good. Woo! He's got little feet. He's got little arms now. All right, there it is. Completely done. Lego Cubone and the smart brick will go right inside of here when we close it up. We'll test that out later. Okay, look at Cubone. The amount of detail around Cubone is incredible. And I just love the fact that Cubone has this bone club in its hand. Perfect. Perfect. Everything about Cubone is perfect [music] to me. I love it. Let's do this. Next up on our list, we're going to be building Gengar. So, bags two, three, and four. Gengar looks like it's going to be a lot to build. So, here we go. Let's break right into it. Bag number two. Bag two complete. Gengar Smart Tag going in under the tongue. He's coming together. [laughter] Look, he's got like full teeth now. [cheering] All right, bag number four. Here we go. So, then we're combining these two. What? That's cool for the final pieces of Gengar. Let's do it. Look at the ears. It's finally in. This is like the coolest thing ever. Lego Gengar ready for battle. Boom. I think Gengar just might be one of my favorite Lego Pokemon because of what it has on the back, this little lever here. And that lever controls its tongue. And I just think this is the most funniest thing ever. So, both our Lego Cubone and Lego Gengar are now built. And it's time for the other parts of the set. Next up, we are building this. This is where the Pokémon are going to train. We got some more Lego to build. [music] It's like a little mushroom lamp looking thing here. I like it. And there it is. Very nice. Very clean. Bag number six. If you want to see the treasure in the chest, there it is. Ta. All right. And this is the smart tag that we are inserting onto this. All done. All right. Here we go. We're going to build the tree. Let's do it. This one also comes with a smart tag just like that. So, we'll have a smart brick interacting with it when we get close to it. So, let's build. Let's get to work. The tree is done. And now all you have to do is attach this. Has a little hook into here. And this combines into a fullblown training area, which is really nice. There it is. The bonsai tree connected to this. So, we have all the training grounds ready to go, as well as our Gengar. Boom. as well as the Cubone. So, Cubones will be whacking this tree training over here. And we have the little Lego Ultra Ball. So, there is the entire beautiful set. So, this is going to be Cubone and Gengar's spooky showdown. This is what the set looks like fully done. So, I'm going to put the smart bricks inside of Cubone and Gengar so you all can see what they sound like. So, what I want to do is you want to pop out this little chest here. We're going to take a Lego smart brick and we're going to insert it It's already coming to life. Hold on. To kind of like hide the smart brick, you can take [music] off the center piece on the chest like this. Put it in the middle here. Here's what Cubone sounds like. So, you can hear it's like a charge up. [screaming] Fast asleep. Same thing for Gengar. We're gonna remove a part here and insert the smart brick. So, just watch. All right. So, here's some of the sound effects that uh Gengar does. >> Gengar sleeping. >> [screaming] >> I never get tired of that. And then we'll put them up. And then here is what Gengar and Cubone sound like. Yapping. >> I love how they sound. It's so funny. [laughter] What are they laughing about? The other set. So let's say for example, we want Cubone over here to interact with this. Watch this. Now that we built all these Lego Pokémon, I think it's time we get in battle and become a Lego Pokemon trainer. And in order to do that, I have someone with me to help with the battle. Here's Henna. And we'll be picking our own Lego Pokémon to battle with. So, which one do you want to go with? >> Maybe Charizard. >> Charizard. Okay. I feel like I might go Gengar here. All right. So, it's a fireflying versus a ghost poison typing. Let's clear the battlefield and get ready. Okay, here we go. >> You beat me. >> Yes, I did. >> Gengar, Charizard, >> I need to give Gengar healing spray. We're good to go. Charge up attack. >> I won. And that's how you do a Lego Pokemon battle. You too can also become a Lego Pokemon trainer. So, what are you waiting for? Check out the link in the description below and good luck on your Lego Pokemon trainer journey.
