*contest closed* Pokemon Rising Rivals Trading Card Game *Giveaway*
Monday, June 22, 2009 Posted by The Mom Jen
Boys will be boys, and not to leave them out, girls like it too. Pokemon. The Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) centers on familiar characters from the Pokémon TV show, movies, and Game Boy games. The Pokémon TCG is very much about social interaction, good sportsmanship, playing games, and making friends. Players can even win scholarships and other rewards for playing! Want to learn how to play Pokemon?Our Take: When my son first got into this I was nervous. I was hoping this stage would pass by and never rear it's head considering my oldest and youngest children are girls. But, when my son got his first Pokemon Nintendo DS game last Christmas, he was sucked in. He's an avid collector of the cards and has now been introduced to the game. With all the characters like Piplup, Turtwig, Pikachu and more, my son enjoys battling and trading for stronger Pokemon, experiencing the evolution of characters and has a blast! My oldest daughter even gets into the challenges with him, and that's saying alot for her LOL.
The Pokémon TCG: Platinum—Rising Rivals expansion brings powerful Trainers and amazing Pokémon together in new and exciting ways, pitting Trainer against Trainer and Pokémon against Pokémon in battles that are sure to raise players to the top of their games!
This latest installment of the best-selling Pokémon TCG contains more than 110 cards and features new Pokémon SP and new Pokémon LV.X including Luxray and Gallade, while the Plasma Pokémon Rotom can now be collected in five different forms! Loaded with the latest Trainer cards, new game play options, and some of the most awesome Pokémon ever, Platinum—Rising Rivals lets you ascend to the level of the Elite Four and discover the elite Trainer in yourself!
Look for all-new Pokémon SP
Discover powerful new Pokémon LV.X
Collect five different forms for Rotom—Wash Rotom, Fan Rotom, Frost Rotom, Mow Rotom, and Heat Rotom

A few years ago, my son asked me to take him to a Pokemon Professor to learn how to play Pokemon! Surprisingly, we have a place by our home that has weekly tournaments, and Professors to teach kids how to play! We love Pikachu! And this game is alot of fun for all of us!
