What is Pokémon Pinball?
Pokémon Pinball is a vintage pinball game for the Game Boy Color that combines the classic pinball action with the ever-charming Pokémon world. Instead of just bouncing the ball off bumpers and up ramps, one would be catching and evolving Pokémon for large scores. What a neat spin given both pinball action and Pokémon collecting!
How to Play
- Arrow Keys (←→↑↓): Use to perform starting and navigating actions, such as confirmation or selection of menu items.
- Enter (↵): Start game or confirm a selection.
- Shift: Secondary functions like going back in menus.
- Z/B & X/A: Activate flippers (left and right).
The longest ball-in-play time possible must be maintained while hitting targets so that Pokémon can be caught, an evolution sequence can be triggered, and bonuses can be unlocked. Each table that you will encounter has its own layout along with an exclusive set of special mechanics for different Pokémon.
Tips and Tricks
- Hit Evolution Spots: Hitting these consistently evolves your Pokémon to score big bonuses.
- Keep an Eye on Ball Saver: Occasionally an act gives you some seconds to save a lost ball, so act fast!
- Multi-Ball Madness: Multi-ball mode equals the biggest scoring opportunities!
- Master Your Tilt: A little tilt goes a long way, so use it wisely to nudge without tilting.
History
Originally released in 1999 on the Game Boy Color, Pokémon Pinball was one of the first spin-offs in the franchise. The game coupled the addictive gameplay of pinball with the fun of catching Pokémon to capture the hearts of fans. A rumble feature was included, only requiring the optional cartridge to fully immerse oneself in the experience!
If you have mad pinball skills or will ever be a Pokémon trainer, this vintage jewel provides an excellent middle ground for effort and nostalgia. Time to now flip for your high score!
