This is a Pokémon-themed Tabletop Roleplaying Game club. We play Pokémon-inspired TTRPG systems, where you can embark on exciting adventures as a Trainer or Pokémon in various regions, facing challenges, mysteries, and unique encounters. A new Pokémon-themed adventure awaits! Explore the unique regions of the Pokémon world, where Trainers and Pokémon must work together to uncover secrets and face challenges in a world teeming with Pokémon lore. One week, you might be investigating a mysterious disturbance in the local PokéCenter, and the next, you could find yourself in a battle to save an endangered Pokémon species or exploring the heart of a mystical forest where time and space bend. Players will have a significant role in shaping the world around them. Your decisions will influence the Pokémon and regions you encounter, the factions you join, and the stories you create together. The setting allows for plenty of room for creative character backgrounds and Pokémon team-building, ensuring that no two adventures are the same. Safety tools will be provided to ensure a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone. Players will have goals to strive toward, and achievements will reward their characters with special Pokémon, items, and abilities. Topics and themes explored include teamwork, exploration, problem-solving, and building meaningful connections with Pokémon and fellow Trainers. The game encourages imagination and improvisation, allowing players to push the boundaries of the Pokémon world. This is an interactive experience with virtual tabletop software for maps, art, tokens, music, and more. For younger players, a version suitable for ages 7-12 is also available.
Learning Goals
Learners will develop their ability to think critically by analyzing situations, strategizing, and making decisions that affect the outcome of their Pokémon adventures.
Learners will enhance their ability to work as part of a team, cooperating with fellow Trainers and Pokémon to achieve shared objectives.
Other Details
Learning Needs
TTRPGs support unique learning needs by offering structured, engaging environments that promote social interaction, problem-solving, and self-expression. They create inclusive spaces, and have tools like visual aids and oral storytelling.
Parental Guidance
Pokémon-themed games can include intense moments, such as battles or challenging situations, but safety tools will be provided to ensure a positive experience for each player. Our first session will include an open discussion on how to handle uncomfortable topics in a group setting, and we'll revisit these topics as needed when new players join or for periodic refreshers.
Gamer tags will be required to participate in this class, and families are asked to send them via private message to maintain privacy; gamer tags should not be shared on the classroom page.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Health Services/Allied Health/Health Sciences from The University of Adelaide
I have over 3 years of experience as a Game Master (GM) for tabletop role-playing games, during which I've developed a deep understanding of how to create engaging and inclusive experiences for players. In addition to my role as a GM, I have tutored children in mathematics and STEM subjects, which has enhanced my ability to communicate complex concepts in an accessible and supportive way. My background in psychology allows me to understand diverse learning needs and foster a positive environment for all participants. I am also passionate about creating safe, inclusive spaces where all learners, including neurodivergent individuals, can thrive. Through both my professional experience and personal journey, I’ve seen firsthand the benefits that these types of spaces can offer.
