(Japanese: ポケモンバトリオ Pokémon BATTRIO) is a cel-shaded arcade game designed by Tomy. It is a fighting game in the vein of Pokémon Stadium or Pokémon Battle Revolution.
The machine uses special pucks that affect which Pokémon can be used. The main gameplay difference is that three Pokémon can be used on each side, a slightly more advanced take on double battles. Pokémon can also be moved around the field by using the pucks, which give different bonuses depending on how the Pokémon are arranged.
The name is derived from the words "Battle" and "Trio".
Puck Sets

To start a battle, a player must place three Battrio pucks upon a scanner, which will read the pucks and put the Pokémon into the game. Players may not use more than one copy of the same puck. Once the Pokémon are scanned in, the player moves the pucks over to their field. The positioning of pucks on the field on the machine directly influences the positioning of the Pokémon on the in-game battlefield. Depending on the specific Pokémon present on the field, combos may be activated, giving various attack bonuses. Hitpoints are one single bar, formed from the sum of the HP shown on all three pucks. To attack, players must select which Pokemon will attack, then press a button that begins the attack. Like the regular games, Pokémon with a higher Speed stat will attack first. Both teams on the field will attack each other until the HP total of one of the teams reaches 0.
Memory Keys
Memory Keys (Japanese: メモリーキー Memory Key) are memory-saving devices that are sold at a retail price of about ¥600. While they are not necessary in order to play the game, they add some more depth to the game. Additional features provided by a memory key include, but are not limited to, choosing and naming an avatar, keeping track of items and medals earned, and saving progress in Tower Mode.
Memory Keys are available in various different colors, including red and various Pokémon-themed color schemes.
