About the game
포켓몬 칩스 ("Pokémon Chips") is a Pokémon-themed version of Bag of Chips in which everyone is trying to score valuable Pokémon each round to be the first to collect 10 points or grab one trophy. The Pokemon edition is scored differently from the standard edition. At the start of a round, each player is dealt five objective cards and the Pokéball tokens are placed in the bag. Someone draws four tokens from the bag and places them on the beach card, then everyone discards one of their objective cards. The player draws three more tokens, then everyone discards another objective card. The player draws two more tokens, then everyone discards another objective card. The player then draws one final token. If a played objective card has not been completed, discard it. If the objective is met, the player keeps the card. Of both objectives are met, the player picks which card to keep. First to ten points or meets the objective on a trophy card wins. 포켓몬 칩스 includes trainer cards that give each player a special unique power.
