Pokémon BATTRIO

Pokémon BATTRIO is an arcade game similar to Pokémon Battle Revolution: it focuses solely on Pokémon battles. The key difference is that three Pokémon are used on each team at once, a feature not yet introduced into the main series ("BATTRIO" is a combination of "battle" and "trio"). Which Pokémon can be used is determined by pucks that are purchased and used by the player. The battle system is simplified to attract a target audience of ages 6 to 12. A memory key may also be purchased to save progress, and to progress through some modes of the game. The game originally featured the 493 Pokémon up through Generation IV, but was later updated to feature Pokémon from Generation V. The game was eventually discontinued and the units replaced by its sequel, Pokémon Tretta.
