Product Description:
In Pokémon Pinball, one thing is obvious: the design team took the existing pinball engine of Kirby's Pinball Land for the Game Boy, and converted it into another machine altogether. In the game, you whack a Pokeball around a pinball machine that's constructed of Pokémon-related obstacles and structures. There are two machines, Red and Blue, and each machine has its own techiques, challenges, bonus levels, and Pokémon. Yep, the idea in the game is to capture Pokémon. How? Well, each machine has its own way of finding the creatures, but once you find it, it's all a matter of hitting it six times with your Pokeball. They'll appear in the center screen, and if you manage to catch a Pokémon, it'll sit in your built-in Pokedex. Each machine will also give you the ability to evolve captured Pokémon, since some creatures are not out in the wild. What happens when you manage to get all 150 Pokémon?
Editorial Review:
For those a little poky about catching onto the Pokémon craze, this game is a great way for the uninitiated to get their feet wet. Also, pinball fanatics should not dismiss this as a kid's game, because it's a solid pinball game, regardless of the Pokémon brand.
Two Pokémon-themed tables, Red and Blue, are here for players to bounce the Pokéball around in hopes of catching up to 150 Pokémon monsters. The monsters are collected by hitting targets on the pinball tables, and once collected, the monsters can be perused in the popular Pokédex format. Owners of the Game Boy printer can print their prize collections and mount their characters on the wall, if they so desire. Unfortunately, the monsters collected in Pokémon Pinball cannot be traded with other Pokémon monsters from the Red, Blue, or Yellow games, making this game a stand-alone product. A unique aspect of the game is that it has a built-in rumble pack, which vibrates and shakes the Game Boy system as the Pokéball bounces around the screen. --Jeff Young
Pros: - A great way for non-Pokéheads to get into the action
- A respectable pinball game
- High replayability
Cons: - Can't trade Pokémon with ones from the Pokémon Red, Blue, or Yellow games

If you are kind of new to Pokemon and don't know much about pokemon you should get this game. It's just a pinball game when you have to catch pokemons. I bought this at an Ebgames for 2.99. You can probably get a cheaper price for it unless you read my review at felt that it is so good you have to recive it in the next 24 hours.After you know a lot about this game you probably already know enough about these games to start with Ruby or Blue or Gold. If you want this game new get it for GBA unless you are stuck with a Game Boy Color. I liked the game so much I bouught it for Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance. The difference is that in one of them it shakes the Game Boy which is highly rare. But you have to have a AAA battery for your game. This is a great game.

Okay, I am not a pokemon fan at all, but I have to say that I love this game. You can choose from two different tables, red or blue. This game can become very addicting. If you are a pinball fan and not a pokemon fan, you can still enjoy this game. I highly recommened it.

the game is the bomb! perfect for the kids on a long road trip. The game has a rumble feature, so this is the perfect game even for adults, to cause as a distration from stress of work related problems. You should make sure that the game is factory sealed before you buy it.
