Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire is a pinball video game for the Game Boy Advance, featuring Pokémon-themed elements. Players use a Pokéball instead of a traditional pinball, with flippers controlled by the D-pad and A-button. The game includes two main tables, over 200 Pokémon to interact with, various bumpers, and support for multiplayer through link cable. The objective is to catch Pokémon while achieving high scores.
Pokemon Pinball has all the features you'd demand of a pinball game, including bonus tables, lots of bumpers and ways to score massive points. As with your standard videogame pinball game, the left button on the D-pad and the A-button control the flippers with the R/L triggers used to shake the table. The catch here is that everything is themed in Pokemon. Instead of a ball, you make use of a Pokeball. Instead of standard bumpers, you're hitting the Pokeball against other Pokemon, and the ultimate goal is of course to `catch 'em all`. The game features 200 Pokemon, two main tables, and link cable support.
