Pokémon Rumble Blast

Pokémon Rumble Blast (Japanese: 乱戦！ポケモンスクランブル Super Pokémon Scramble), Super Pokémon Rumble in Europe, is an upcoming 3DS video game. Pokémon Rumble Blast is the sequel to Pokémon Rumble, a WiiWare game released in 2009 and is set to be released in Japan on July 28, 2011. This game seems to take place in the "Toy World", rather than in "The Main Terminal".

Plot
The "Drops of Light", which allow all Pokémon in the Toy World to battle, are starting to disappear. It is up to the player to venture through the Toy World to collect all of the Drops of Light in order to ensure that all Pokémon can battle as they please. The starter Pokémon of this game is Pikachu. Each area is accessed via gates in the overworld. To get to each area, the player will have to complete specific challenges such as collecting certain Pokémon or completing Battle Royales. Your task in the story is to stop Cobalion and his minions and save the Toy World. In this game, there are five worlds with many different missions to help the player collect all 646 Pokemon.

Game Modes
This mode features different game mode, such as the Battle Royale, just like the original Pokémon Rumble. However, Pokémon Rumble Blast features some brand new modes that the player can partake to collect and battle new Pokémon. The returning game modes are the Battle Royale and the Standard Adventure Mode(which is also co-op accessible). The new game modes follow:

Pokemon Collection Battle
This mode features the player battling each of the Pokémon toys that they have collected while progressing through a stage. If the player manages to defeat each of their Pokémon, they will gain access to a new place where they can collect more powerful Pokémon.

Charge Battle
This mode puts the player in control of a Pokémon army consisting of their Pokémon Toys. With that army, the player must venture through a stage, overpowering other Pokémon Armies in their way. The player is also able to recruit new Pokémon on the way. The team of Pokémon is based upon the strength of the lead Pokémon and is controlled by repeatedly taping the a button or by rotating the circle pad.

Street Pass Mode
This game mode utilities the Nintendo 3DS's Street Pass Feature. It allows the player to connect with a friend and compete in a boss battle with one of their chosen Pokémon. If the player wins, they will earn an as of yet undetermined prize.

Team Battle
The Team Battle mode has the player controlling all three of their selected Pokémon. The lead Pokémon is controlled by the player and the other two are controlled by an AI. The three Pokémon are able to stack on top of each other like a tower when High Tension Mode is activated. This heal the Pokémon's hit points and makes them stronger as a whole.
