'''Turtwig's Target Smash!''' is one of the currently available games. In this game, the player is a {{p|Turtwig}} on a wooden platform using {{m|Energy Ball}} to smash targets while avoiding the blocks. The amount of points for each hit depends on the times power used on the targets and the amount of targets broken within one Energy Ball. When more targets are hit, the times power will raise. It will also go down and will drop down to lower times power unless more targets are hit. Like other online games found on Pokémon.com after the revamp, Turtwig's Target Smash! gives the player Trainer Tokens the first time they reach 50,000 points, and every time they earn 150,000 points. At the end of the game, Turtwig will use {{m|SolarBeam}} to blast all of the remaining targets. The game lasts 100 seconds.

'''Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!''' is game featuring {{p|Pachirisu}}. Here, there are a bunch of Pokémon disks, which should be hit into holes. More points are received when more than one Pokémon in the same evolutionary line are in the same hole. If two Pokémon in the evolutionary line hit each other when they aren't in a hole, they will fuse into the Pokémon's evolution. For example, if two {{p|Budew}} were to hit each other, they would fuse into a {{p|Roselia}}. If that Roselia hits another Budew, they will then fuse into a {{p|Roserade}}. Evolved Pokémon are worth more points than unevolved Pokémon. During a couple of rounds, the player must put every Pokémon into a hole in one shot. During others, a {{p|Lucario}} covered with stars will appear. If the Lucario goes into a hole, a bunch of stars will appear near it. This will temporarily raise the amount of points received from hitting a Pokémon into that hole.

Revision as of 10:34, 17 April 2010

The official Pokémon website, Pokémon.com, hosts eleven Pokémon-related online games that can be played on one of two sites. Up until 2010, only six games were available, with four being accessible in the fun zone directly and the other two being hidden; following a revamp of the site in January 2010, three new games were launched, with two others being released later. The six previous games were later made available on an archive site, which has since been removed. The new games, which are available at the Fun Zone section of Pokémon.com, will earn successful players Trainer Tokens. These games are English adaptations of games originally found on the Japanese Daisuki Club site.

Current games

These three games can be found at Pokémon.com, in the Fun Zone section. They have been available since January 11, 2010, unless otherwise noted.

Turtwig's Target Smash!

Turtwig Target Smash.png

Turtwig's Target Smash! is one of the currently available games. In this game, the player is a Turtwig on a wooden platform using Energy Ball to smash targets while avoiding the blocks. The amount of points for each hit depends on the times power used on the targets and the amount of targets broken within one Energy Ball. When more targets are hit, the times power will raise. It will also go down and will drop down to lower times power unless more targets are hit. Like other online games found on Pokémon.com after the revamp, Turtwig's Target Smash! gives the player Trainer Tokens the first time they reach 50,000 points, and every time they earn 150,000 points. At the end of the game, Turtwig will use SolarBeam to blast all of the remaining targets. The game lasts 100 seconds.

Types of Targets

  • The red target: This target is a basic target. When hit at times 1 power it will give 30 points. There is no countdown to the target disappearing.
  • The green target: This target is like the red target, but offers 150 points when hit at times 1 power and has a countdown to it disappearing.
  • The gold target: This target is smaller than a green target, and offers 300 points when hit at times 1 power and has a smaller countdown to disappearing.

Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!

Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack! is game featuring Pachirisu. Here, there are a bunch of Pokémon disks, which should be hit into holes. More points are received when more than one Pokémon in the same evolutionary line are in the same hole. If two Pokémon in the evolutionary line hit each other when they aren't in a hole, they will fuse into the Pokémon's evolution. For example, if two Budew were to hit each other, they would fuse into a Roselia. If that Roselia hits another Budew, they will then fuse into a Roserade. Evolved Pokémon are worth more points than unevolved Pokémon. During a couple of rounds, the player must put every Pokémon into a hole in one shot. During others, a Lucario covered with stars will appear. If the Lucario goes into a hole, a bunch of stars will appear near it. This will temporarily raise the amount of points received from hitting a Pokémon into that hole.
