LEGO has officially revealed the full lineup of Pokemon Smart Play sets, a new toyline scheduled for release in August 2026.
The announcement, published on the LEGO store, confirms 12 distinct sets that pair popular Pokémon characters with LEGO s Smart Brick technology to enable interactive features and mechanical gimmicks within each set.
The reveal positions LEGO s latest licensed products within the broader Pokémon ecosystem overseen by The Pokémon Company, an entity jointly associated with Nintendo.
Background and context
The Smart Play series uses an electronic Smart Brick component designed to activate actions or effects when placed in a model.
LEGO s statement on the launch explains that each Smart Play set will include this component to trigger unique play interactions tailored to the featured Pokémon.
The rollout arriving in August 2026 marks LEGO s continued expansion into licensed play experiences that blend physical construction with interactive elements.
Full lineup
The confirmed 12 sets are listed on LEGO s storefront and include the following titles: Berry Bash with Bulbasaur and Bidoof; Charizard vs. Jolteon Ultimate Battle; Charmander and Geodude s Cavern Clash; Cubone and Gengar s Spooky Showdown; Drone Search for Mythical Mew; Eevee and Lapras Treasure Hunt; Jigglypuff Concert; Mewtwo s Lab Break; Sprigatito, Fuecoco and Quaxly Battle; Trainer s Buggy Adventure with Squirtle; Training House with Pikachu; and Umbreon vs. Garchomp Championship Battle.
LEGO also confirmed a gift with purchase set featuring a Ditto disguised as Squirtle.
Paraphrased announcement
In clear terms, LEGO explained that the Smart Brick is an integrated electronic element intended to bring each set to life by triggering the set s mechanical features and play scenarios.
The company emphasized that the Smart Brick functionality is central to the Smart Play experience across the lineup.
What this means for fans and the market
These sets arrive amid strong, ongoing interest in Pokémon as a multimedia franchise with frequent releases on Nintendo platforms.
While the Smart Play sets are physical building toys rather than Nintendo Switch software or eShop content, the Pokémon brand s cross-platform visibility remains significant for collectors and families.
The LEGO store pages include preview images and individual set names; consumers can refer to those listings for official product images and purchasing details when the line goes on sale in August 2026.
For owners and collectors, the combination of LEGO s construction design and Pokémon s character IP, together with the Smart Brick s interactivity, represents a notable addition to licensed LEGO offerings in 2026.
