Pokémon Pinball mini
Pokémon Pinball Mini is a pinball game with several levels.
The levels involve using Diglett, Pikachu, Clefairy, Wobbuffet, or Poliwag as a "bumping" mechanism.
Gameplay
Starting with Diglett, the player must play his or her way through 100 levels of pinball, the object usually being to put a Poké Ball (serving as your pinball) in each hole.
Types of levels
Fill holes
The object of such levels is to fill each of the multiple holes with a Poké Ball. After a hole is filled, it will close up and another Poké Ball will appear. This continues until all the holes are filled. Levels like these are always restricted by a time limit.
High Score
In these sorts of levels, the player earns one point for getting a Poké Ball into a hole, and three points for getting it in there with a power shot. The level is limited by a time limit, plus a minimum score he or she must surpass.
Capture
There are only four levels like this, and in all of them, the Pokémon the player is to capture walks across the screen back and forth. Every time the player hits it with the Poké Ball, it loses a bit of HP. When the HP gets to zero, the Pokémon will faint, and will go into the Poké Ball next time it is hit with it. If the player waits too long to capture it, however, it will wake up with 1 HP and continue walking. After catching it, the player is to shoot the Poké Ball into one of the provided holes (bear in mind that after it captures a Pokémon, the Poké Ball becomes heavier, and thus harder to hit). As usual, there is a time limit on these levels.
