Listen to “Pokémon- BALLS Adaptation is Good News CATCHIN THE MONSTERS- LOVED IT, SEE IT!” on Spreaker.
“BALLS” is an action-packed immersive experience about the MONSTERS we collect and the FIGHTS we choose to fight. Be the very first to start a “NEW GAME” in this one-of-a-kind extravaganza, overflowing with 8-bit bops, improvised battles, and 151 original Collectabuddies.
MONSTERS WERE SCARY. AND THE PROFESSOR WAS SCARED. So he squished ‘em down into little balls, and created a safer world: where monsters are pets – and pets do what they’re told. But when these “Collectabuddies” begin to BITE BACK, the Professor and his piece-of-sh*t grandson are forced to battle their past conceptions of right and wrong to save the game they helped create.
