Caught Pokémon: Difference between revisions

In [[Pokémon Tetris]], there is always a catchable Pokémon at the right side of the screen during normal play. The Pokémon is displayed as a small black silhouette if that species has never been caught before; otherwise, its appearance is revealed. If the player clears four lines with the same Tetris piece, a {{i|Poké Ball}} is quickly thrown at that Pokémon, catching it. Additionally, when that Pokémon species is caught for the first time, a "Caught!" screen shortly appears with a larger and more detailed sprite of that Pokémon. The [[Pokédex]] at the [[main menu]] lists how many times each species was caught, and also displays the three available sprites of each Pokémon.

There are 249 available Pokémon in this game: all [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II|II]] Pokémon except {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Celebi}}. It's not possible to [[evolution|evolve]] or {{pkmn|breeding|breed}} any Pokémon; they can all be found as catchable Pokémon. The current catchable Pokémon is assigned randomly by the game. The player has 40 seconds to catch it, at which point it is replaced by a new catchable Pokémon. The current catchable Pokémon starts blinking after the first 30 seconds pass, indicating that the time is almost up. Alternatively, the player may restart the game by pausing and choosing the "Retry" option in the pause menu, which causes a new game to start with a new random catchable Pokémon.
