In early January 2026, LEGO officially launched its Smart Play line, a new take on its classic building bricks. These bricks have multiple sensors that can tell where they are, how they’re positioned, and even detect light, sound, or other LEGO pieces. This allows them to react with lights and sounds. While LEGO’s upcoming Pokemon sets were expected to be the first to feature this new technology, the initial sets revealed don’t have Smart Play capabilities, and more non-Smart Play Pokemon sets are reportedly planned.

Although this could save money over time, it requires an initial investment, as outfit slots must be bought with gold, and the cost of Transmog has generally increased.

Since Blastoise first appeared, many trainers in both the games and the anime have relied on Water-types as their strongest Pokémon. While each fully evolved Water-type starter gets its moment in the spotlight, some become more well-known and memorable than others.

It’s no surprise gamers have largely forgotten many excellent games released during that golden age. Whether those games were based on outdated material, came from defunct series, or simply haven’t held up over time, these 2005 titles are still fantastic, but rarely discussed in 2026.
