Another case of way too much information in too small a book. I'm disappointed. I remember the Pokemon books being more fun when I was younger. Not just because I was younger, either. They weren't so dryly written.

Jack stumbled over quite a few of the words in this one, but he made it through the book in three stages.

I enjoyed this book because I like Pokemon. I also enjoyed this book because I like Pikachu. I also enjoyed this book because this book was about Pokemon.
