'''Pokémon Tazos''' are small collectible round discs that were found in bags of {{wp|Frito-Lay}} chips in the 1990s. While Tazos do not exclusively feature Pokémon, they did adopt the phrase "[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]]" as part of their slogan. Pokémon tazos feature not only Pokémon species, but human characters from the {{pkmn|anime}} as well. Some tazos, rarer than the others, had holograms.

Traditionally, Tazos are played in a manner similar to {{wp|Pogs}}. Players form equal stacks of face-down Tazos and try to "win" Tazos from the other player by throwing a Tazo at the stack and keeping any Tazos that land face-up after being knocked over.
 
Pokémon Tazos are also assigned [[type]]s with strengths and weaknesses printed on the back. Human characters are considered strong against all types.<!--is there any "official" way to play with the types??--> 
 
Pokémon Tazos were available in many countries worldwide, including several {{pmin|Latin America}}n countries, {{pmin|Brazil}}, {{pmin|France}},  {{pmin|Indonesia}}, and a few countries in the {{pmin|the Arab world|Middle East}}, including {{pmin|Israel}}.

Traditionally, Tazos are played the same way as {{wp|Pogs}}, in which the player would stack the discs and then try to flip them by slamming them.
