A little history of Pokemon Rumble.

Although Pokemon Rumble Rush is currently only available in Australia, the rest of us will get to ahold of it soon enough. From what it sounds like, Rumble Rush is basically another sequel (or spinoff, cuz mobile) to the Pokemon Rumble series. The original, Pokemon Rumble, is a title that was released in 2009 for the Nintendo Wii. They made three sequels for the next generations of Nintendo consoles, and each title followed the classic “beat ’em up” themed play style.

About Pokemon Rumble Rush

This new mobile title will continue to follow the same path as the previous games, but now we get to enjoy it on our cell phones. In Rumble Rush, you must battle Pokemon in order to have them follow you. The more Pokemon you collect of the same species, the stronger your Pokemon will become! There are special items to find, and also to purchase with in-game and real-world currency. One of these special items is Gears, which are used to power up your Pokemon, as well as summon more Pokemon into battle for you.
