LEGO Pokémon SMART Play may not be aiming for perfect visual fidelity with the biggest intellectual property in the world, but what it is attempting to do, it succeeds at.
Not everybody will be won over by the inclusion of SMART Bricks and SMART Tags in these Pokémon sets, but for those who want LEGO Pokémon to recreate the roleplaying experience of actually being a Pokémon trainer from the games, these sets are probably going to deliver. Either way, they're set to make a lot of money (as basically everything Pokémon does) and ensure that SMART Bricks end up in a lot more households in 2026 and beyond.
