Its flipping fantastic and there’s no need to “insert coin” for yet another classic Pokémon title for Game Boy Advance. Pokémon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire is coming soon to everyone’s favourite handheld console!

Much more than just a regular pinball game, Pokémon Pinball challenges you to use your flippers and Pokéballs to capture over 200 Pokémon. Play on either the Ruby or Sapphire tables each with their own unique ramps, bumpers and targets!

Aim for a high score as you try to catch ‘em all with skillful shots and well timed flipper action. Unlock hidden features and move to new fields to catch those special Pokémon! You can even evolve your Pokémon by activating the “Evo Mode” to expand your Pokédex even further! Collect coins and purchase new features to help you in the game including ball upgrades, ball savers and the classic pinball feature – the extra ball!!

Other all new, exciting modes available in Pokémon Pinball include the GET mode that enables player to get Pokémon, the EGG mode allowing players to capture a special Pokémon from an egg, the EVO mode used to evolve Pokémon and the MOVE mode enabling players to move to different area.

Share your high scores and captured Pokémon with friends who also have copies of the game by connecting your Game Boy Advances with a Game Boy Advance Game Link cable. By copying Pokémon data from your friends game, it makes catching those special Pokémon even easier!
