Stern Pinball, Inc., in partnership with The Pokémon Company International, has introduced a new pinball machine, Pokémon by Stern Pinball. This machine, powered by Stern’s SPIKE 3 technology, allows players to experience the excitement of catching, battling, and training Pokémon in a pinball setting. Players can challenge themselves as Pokémon Trainers, facing off against rivals and Team Rocket. The machine is available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition models.
In this game, Trainers explore four different habitats to catch and bond with Pokémon. They use a mechanically animated Poké Ball to capture Pokémon and build their teams. The playfield includes Pokémon-themed ramps, spinners, and targets, with an animatronic Pikachu reacting to gameplay. Players can engage in custom battle sequences and face threats from Team Rocket and Giovanni. The Premium and Limited Edition models feature an interactive electromagnet for added chaos.
The machine is designed with attention to detail, featuring video clips from the original Pokémon series and custom voiceovers for Pikachu and Giovanni. It also includes the iconic “Pokémon Theme” song. Stern Pinball’s Insider Connected system enhances the experience by allowing players to track their Pokémon collection across different machines.
The Limited Edition model, limited to 750 units, offers exclusive features such as:
