As a long time Pokemon fan, I've really wanted some of the new sets, then my grandson said, "get one we can play with, not just build and stare at it". So I went with the Pikachu Smart Play. Building is good for my brain, which is aging, good for my grandson's brain, which is developing, and the end result - this set is so much fun! He played with it for hours (well, the Smart Brick only lasts about 45 minutes, which is a bit disappointing), expending on the set, creating stories about Pikachu and his friends (other mini and micro figs). I can't wait to get another Smart Play set.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My niece loves Pokémon so this was so much fun to build and spend an afternoon together. This was a big kit and ath Smart Play cube added some excitement to it. There were about 6 sets of instructions, but they were all easy to read. I might need to get some more sets to build with her!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and husband both love playing with this training house with pikachu. Setting the whole thing was not difficult at all and had a great time setting it up together. The whole training house is a small perfect size to play on a small table and talking pikachu make this toy very engaging. When putting pikachu on his side on his bed he will begin to make sleeping noise, shaking it will make an attack noise and moving the pikachu the side will make an evade noise if being attacked. The whole training house is very engaging for pikachu and other Pokemons. It comes with a charger as well to charge your smart brick so you can play this for days to come. Overral they completely loved it and had so much fun to playing pretend training, resting and enjoying a hot meal before going to bed all included in this set and you can put any where because it’s small easy to storages
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set was so so cute. All the tiny little kitchen pieces made it extra fun. The smart brick is cool and you can switch it between Pokémon. I wish that there were more smart bricks included so multiple Pokémon could be making noises at the same time! My girls will have endless hours of fun with all these interactive sets. 
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set includes a smart brick and charging station. My nine year old daughter found this set to be her favorite. The smart brick makes the characters come to life and you can actually have the Pokémon interact with eachother IF you have TWO smart bricks.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everything you need for funn is straight out of the box. Easy fun and pokemon that is everything you need to know. The manuals was great to see it assembled before you got too far and the design of Pikachu with the house was a great addition. The smart brick it comes with is great even when playing with the accessories.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lego Pokémon Training House with Pikachu includes six numbered bags of Lego pieces, four instruction manuals, as well as the smart brick and USB cord. It does NOT come with adapter to plug into electricity.
Instructions were overall easy to follow. There were a couple less obvious pieces, such as the oval brick in book one, step 5, that appears the whole piece is solid and holes are not visible. Also, the blue outline around where each piece belongs created some brief confusion thinking there was maybe supposed to be a blue piece as well.
We chose not to use the smart brick feature as this requires downloading an app, takes two hours to charge, and disassembling part of the already built Lego creation.
Most pieces were easy to assemble with the exception of Pokémon’s face brick in bag one, which did not go on so easily.
I received this product from Influenster for testing purposes in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lego house set is a blast to build! It's got so many nice features that make it feel really alive. My kids favorite part is the interactive elements that bring it to life. Building it ws surprisingly straightforward. A fantastic way to combine creative building with some smart technology.
