Lego's new Pokémon sets offer smart play

Lego is launching a second generation of its tech-enhanced Smart Bricks, featuring 12 new Pokémon-themed sets this summer. These sets promise enhanced interactive play, including training and battling capabilities, addressing shortcomings of the initial Star Wars-themed releases. While the first generation offered limited features like voice barks and lights, the new Pokémon sets aim to deliver more of the advanced smarts initially showcased at CES. This move signifies Lego's commitment to integrating technology for more engaging and creative play experiences, building on early promise.
