Overview

A Johto-themed reskin of Nintendo's superb Panel de Pon / Tetris Attack puzzle game. Clear blocks by swapping them into matching rows and columns, chaining combos to bury your opponent.

It's fast, tense and endlessly replayable, a hidden gem in the Game Boy Color library.

Tips

  • Set up 'chains' before you clear them, delayed combos do far more damage than single matches.
  • Learn to raise the stack manually to buy yourself setup time.
  • The Gen 2 Gym Leaders appear as puzzle opponents with escalating difficulty.

Trivia

  • In Japan it was titled Pokémon de Panepon.
  • It shares its core engine with Tetris Attack and the Panel de Pon series.
