Pokemon Uno Cards
- The deck consists of 112 cards, including 4 Wild Snorlax Traffic cards and 4 Wild Battle Bond cards, in addition to the regular Uno cards.
- The Wild Snorlax Traffic card lets you choose a color, then the next player draws 3 cards and discards all cards of that color from their hand. Their turn ends after that.
- The Wild Battle Bond card lets you choose a color, then the next player draws a card. If the card they draw matches the color you chose, they can play it immediately. Otherwise, their turn ends.
- The game is played by matching cards by number, color, or symbol. You can also play a Wild card to change the color in play.
Pokemon Uno Rules
Pokemon Uno is a fun card game by Mattel that is based on the original Uno game, but with some twists. The objective of the game is for the players to eliminate all of their cards, with the first person to do so being declared the winner. Here are the basic steps to play Pokemon Uno:
- Mix the cards and distribute 7 cards to every player. Place the remaining cards in the middle of the table to form the draw pile. Initiate the game by flipping the first card from the draw stack. This is the discard pile.
- The game commences with the player situated to the dealer’s left. They are required to play a card that corresponds to the color, number, or symbol of the card at the top of the discard pile.
- In the event they lack a suitable card, they are obligated to pick a card from the draw pile. If the drawn card is playable, they have the option to play it. If not, their turn concludes.
- You must say “Uno” when you have one card left in your hand. If you forget to say it and another player catches you, you must draw 2 cards as a penalty.
- Some special cards have different effects. The Wild Snorlax Traffic card lets you choose a color, then the next player draws 3 cards and discards all cards of that color from their hand.
- The Wild Battle Bond card lets you choose a color, then the next player draws a card. If the card they draw matches the color you chose, they can play it immediately. Otherwise, their turn ends. The standard Wild card allows you to select any color for the subsequent move.
- The Draw 2 card compels the subsequent player to pick up 2 cards and forfeit their turn. The Reverse card changes the direction of play. The Skip card skips the next player’s turn.
- When you have one card left in your hand, you must yell “Uno” out loud. If you forget to say it and another player catches you, you must draw 2 cards as a penalty.
- The person who gets rid of all their cards first wins.
