A mini-site for the upcoming puzzle game Pokémon Battle Trozei has now opened for English-speaking audiences, accessible here. The site features a brief rundown of the game’s features as well as screenshots of the gameplay. The download-only title will hit Japan on March 12 for ¥800, with a European launch, under the name Pokémon Link: Battle!, following closely on March 13 for £7.19 (UK) & €7.99 (EU). Americans will be able to play a week after their European counterparts on March 20 for $7.99.
I’d also like to touch upon the game’s name. What is a ‘trozei’ anyways?! I’ll quickly explain: toru (取る) is the Japanese word for “get”. In Japanese the game’s title is ポケモンバトルトローゼ, or Pokémon Battoru Torouze; this roughly translates to Pokémon Battle: Let’s Get! It makes more sense with Japanese grammatical structure, but in English we’d flip it around and say “let’s get Pokémon”. You may be wondering why it’s “torouze” and not “toru” as I brought up, but this is a colloquial verb conjugation in the ‘let’s do’ form with “ze”, an exclamatory, at the end. Hope that made sense 😀

Good evening everyone :B
nice posting first so someone doesnt go FIIRSST!!
Good evening Tokyo Boy
Evenin’
FINALLY! SOMEONE CLOSE TO MY TIME ZONE!
Good evening.
Hai
Sadly I usually only buy the main series games, aside from Mystery Dungeon. That’s gotta change.
I’d say this is a must-buy. It’s a fun and fast paced action game. Miss the old one!
I brought XD and the battling one on Wii
They should just call it “Pokémon Link [Battle]” like in Europe. Calling it Trozei in America is pretty idiotic.
nooo its like Bingo! its catchy but what does it mean?
I wish they would make another Pokemon Pinball.. I really liked the R/S/E one xD
HOENN CONFIRMED!
YES, HURRN CUNFURMED!!!
Wait, what were we talking about?
No idea. How about… HOENN JUST CONFIRMED! 🙂
We’re going to need a bigger wallet…
I think you meant you don’t have the need for a large one anymore.
Let’s just go with that.
Dae, you and your linguistic side…
this looks cooler the old one. can’t wait for it to be released!
These are all the new abilities I made:
Cold Feet: On Ice-types, it makes the battleground cold if it is in contact with the ground, and causes a 10% chance of every other Pokémon on the battlefield freezing. It also slows down the hatching of eggs. On other types, it has the same effect as Run Away.
Insulate: Grants immunity to special Fire and Electric-type moves.
Hyperactive: Doubles speed after being hit by a physical move. Also grants immunity to the sleep condition after being hit by a physical move.
Dew Point: Creates the Fog weather condition on the battlefield.
Amplify: Raises the accuracy of sound-based moves by 20% and chance of confusion by 40%
Cold Feet seems a bit overpowered. The others sound good though.
When sent out.
This looks cool. Maybe I’ll get it.
Does anyone else here live in Asia? Other than me, GooeyGreenGastrodon and Gangplank Style?
I can say I live in Asia.
How would they join the EU, then?
Who are they?
Good day ladies and gentlemen.
“Befriend all known Pokémon”? Does this mean we can befriend Diancie too? XD
The music reminds me of some other old game I liked hmmmm??? =]
This might probably be the first Pokémon game I buy that is not from the main series games. Hopefully I won’t spend all my cash on Pokémon t-shirts.
😛
Ehh looks decent. I might get it eventually. I wish GF would stop releasing all these little side games though and focus more on the main series. I don’t really care for anything outside of that. I didn’t like mystery dungeon or ranger. I did rather like gale of darkness though, wouldn’t mind a 3DS remake of that or something. Also liked rumble. Just my opinion though, I know other people like the spin off games. They’re just not my thing :/
You know all the spin-offs are made by a bajillion other companies? Gamefreak only works on the main games and nothing else.
Uh….of course I did….Actually I didn’t haha. But thanks for telling me! I feel dumb now though 🙁
Hello?
hi
Hola!
こんにちは？
So I finished The Stick of Truth
I have no words to express the things I’ve seen
Goomy looks so cute!
I feel like I just had a grammar lesson on Japanese words.
Pj, Japanese teacher for the Pokejungle School!
But I just came home ::
School. Now.
This looks great! I’ll get it for sure!
—————————————–
Anyone here?
Yup, I don’t know why it’s so quiet right now since it usually starts getting active by now :/
Can you rate my team for the PJL?
—————————————-
Politoed – Frogger – The Setup
Kingdra – Charybdis – The First Shot
Ludicolo – Viva Sombrero – The Stall
Azumarill – Pikazul – The Risk
Greninja – McRibit – The Speed
Blastiose – King Koopa – The Reinforcement
———————————————
The team will get more pokemon and rotate and stuff, but how is it now? I cant exactly change it now tho.
Hmmm this looks very cool, but I still won’t get it
Does anyone have a Timid Deino i could have?
I do! In return for that poliwag?
Sure…let me just get on
Ok, ready. what’s your IGN?
Andrew. I’ll send it.
Do you also happen to have a Reckless Starly? Can give you a 5 IV Adamant Beldum for it.
OH. MY. GOD. I GOT A FREE COPY OF POKEMON Y!!!!!!
😀 How? Your ATV tho.
I registered my 3DS and my Mario Kart copy on Club Nintendo
@disqus_DD3HNtN9xO:disqus Its missing atk and speed IVs. Thanks!! 😀
No worries. I’ll be breeding it anyway. I like my Pokemon to have my own OT.
Now I do too. I used to not care, but that was because breeding a 3 IV back then for me took weeks. Now I’m gonna simply breed this squirtle in 10 minutes. xD
Can someone (chaos you already have) rate my team for the PJL?
