Hello,

Pokemon is big in our family.
One of our sons, our daughter, my wife and I all play the card game.
This weekend we tried playing Pokemon in teams and it's a BLAST!
I thought you would like to know what we came up with.

Here's how we modified the rules:

You play in teams of two.
Each player puts out six prizes.
You battle the player across from you and your teammate battles the player
opposing her.
One player and his teammate take their turns.Then the other side takes their
turns.
Trainers can affect any Pokemon in play (You can save your teammate' s
Pokemon with one of your potions).
Pokemon Powers can affect any Pokemon or the entire game.

Poison and Sleep have been changed.
    Poison only takes place after both players on a team have taken their
turns.
    Sleep is flipped for after both players on a team have taken their
turns.

Both players on a side must be defeated to win. If one team does not win,
the side with the fewest remaining prizes wins.
Once one player wins or loses, he does not continue to play and cannot help
his teammate.

Hope you enjoy this. We did

Thanks,

Dave Pickering
