How to run this board

This board is for young Pokemon fans and the grown-ups who have heard a lot about Pokemon. It covers starter Pokemon, types and what beats what, evolutions, legendary Pokemon, the video games, and Ash and friends from the animated series.

The questions lean toward the well-known Pokemon from the original games and the show, so a fan of any age has a fair chance. Put it on the TV at a birthday party or a family game night and let kids buzz in from a parent's phone.

Tip for mixed ages: pair each child with an adult who knows nothing about Pokemon. The kid gives the answers, the adult does the buzzing, and everyone learns something.
