The Pokémon Trozei series often gets overlooked in discussions about standout Pokémon spin-offs, yet the original DS puzzle game was a real gem when it debuted in 2006. Unlike many entries in the franchise, this one offered a refreshing narrative centered on Lucy Fleetfoot, a secret agent on a mission to rescue kidnapped Pokémon. How? By matching their icons on a 5 x 11 grid. Sure, it might sound a bit quirky, but the atmosphere was phenomenal and the puzzle mechanics provided a fantastic experience.
When Pokémon Battle Trozei hit the 3DS, it took these mechanics to new heights, injecting fresh challenges and introducing wild Pokémon that could shake up your combos. Plus, the multiplayer options expanded, inviting more people to join the fun. Although it’s an impressive game on its own, there’s yet another Pokémon puzzle title that truly stands above the rest.
