Modes

There are four gameplay modes in Pokémon Zany Cards.

Wild Match

Main article: Wild Match

Wild Match (Japanese: マッチ&ゲット Match & Get) is a fishing-type card game.

1-5 players. Players are given the challenge of matching sets of cards on the table and winning coins. Once a player has played a card, they then draw a card and add it to the table; if this card makes a set that player gets coins. The player with the most coins at the end of the game is the winner.

Special Seven

Main article: Special Seven

Special Seven (Japanese: ポケモンページワン Pokémon Page One) is a variant of one-card (Japanese: ページワン page one). This is a shedding-type card game.

1-5 players. The aim of this game is to be the first player to get rid of all of their cards. Players can match cards by suit (club, diamond, heart or spade) or by matching the Pokémon on the table. Players can also use the special abilities of some cards to change the suit.

Card Duel

Two players only. Each player has the same cards. The player that players the highest value card wins the cards on the table. This game can only be played with two players via infrared connection.

Four Kings

Main article: Four Kings

Four Kings (Japanese: フォーキングス Four Kings) is a variation of Calculation, also known as Four Kings Solitaire.[5]

Single player only. The object of this game is to form four piles of 13 cards by applying different arithmetic progressions of the card ranks: each pile has its own card sequence ending in K (Magikarp) as the 13th card.

Trivia

  • Whenever Brock mentions Nurse Joy, it is incorrectly displayed as Ms Joy, and Ritchie is misspelled as Ricky.
  • Snorlax's theme in Special Seven is used as the title music for Snorlax's Lunch Time in Pokémon Channel.
