Pokemon Puzzle League - Available July 15

Get ready for a Pokémon battle when the Nintendo 64 puzzle game, Pokémon Puzzle League, fills up your Nintendo Switch screen as an addition to the Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online library. Join Ash, Brock, Misty, and many more characters from the Pokémon animated series as they gather in Puzzle Village to compete for the title of Pokémon Puzzle Master. Just match three or more blocks of the same color in any direction. It may sound simple, but the gameplay is surprisingly deep, especially when you’re facing off against a human opponent, in person or online. Choose from six different modes offering a wide range of action, from story or puzzle modes to continuous play or timed play. Pokémon Puzzle League will be available starting July 15 for players with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership.
