{{spoilers}}
One day while playing with his friends {{p|Charmander}}, {{OBP|Piplup|PokéPark}}, and {{p|Chikorita}}, a kind hearted {{OBP|Pikachu|PokéPark}} encountered {{p|Mew}}. Mew joined in the festivities and led the group to a small hole in the ground. Pikachu is then accidentally shoved into the hole and falls into a whole other world inhabited only by Pokémon. Pikachu's friends, worried about his well being, jumped in after him. After landing, Pikachu sees Mew in a dream who explains that a terrible fate has befallen on the {{ga|PokéPark}} because an ancient stone, the Sky Prism, has shattered into 14 shards and scattered across the PokéPark.

The player, as Pikachu, must solve the crisis that has befallen the PokéPark. The player will explore various Zones within the PokéPark, each very different to the last: Meadow Zone, Beach Zone, Iceberg Zone, Cavern Zone, Lava Zone, Haunted Zone, Granite Zone, and the Flower Zone, along with the Sky Pavilion. Each Zone has various Attractions, which comprise the main challenges in the game. The player will receive a Sky Prism Piece at each Attraction the first time they achieve a bonus score.

As Pikachu befriends other Pokémon, each will become playable in different Attractions, opening up a wealth of possibilities to make strategic use of different Pokémon's specific strengths.

Many of these befriended Pokémon will challenge the player to a Skill Game, such as Hide-and-Seek and Chase – all games that will allow the player to build friendships with the challenger by defeating them.

PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventures features the ability to [[photography|take pictures]] from the game, similar to previous WiiWare games. The game's memory can only store up to 30 photos at a time, however, photos can be moved to an SD card purchased separately by the player so that new ones can be taken and the old ones can be copied to a computer as well.

==Currency==
==Currency==
Berries are the main currency in PokéPark, and they are required to enter the various Attractions, stat lessons, and various other things. Attractions accessible later in the game usually cost more Berries, for example {{P|Bastiodon}}'s Block Barrage costs 20 Berries and {{P|Bulbasaur}}'s Daring Dash costs 5 Berries. They come in three different colors, each worth different amounts. Green is worth 10 Berries, Red is worth 20 Berries, and Gold is worth 50 or 100 Berries. They can be found within crates, in trees, in vases, and given away when the player win a Skill Game or an Attraction.

===Chase===
===Chase===
Chase is a game where participants have to capture or tag the other participant Pokémon in a certain span of time. {{M|Thunderbolt}} can be used to stun the fleeing Pokémon, especially {{type|Flying}} Pokémon to make the chase easier but if the time limit runs out Pikachu loses.

===Battle===
===Battle===
Battles, unlike the main series of turn based Pokémon games involve Pikachu actively moving around the screen and attacking the opponent. Pikachu can deplete the opponent's health bar via a [[Dash]] attack, {{m|Thunderbolt}} strike or {{m|Iron Tail}} attack, although Ground-type Pokémon such as {{p|Torterra}} are only momentarily stunned by Thunderbolt and are not harmed by the attack. This also applies to Electric-type Pokémon and some others that would normally be somewhat affected such as {{p|Breloom}}. Additionally, hitting a Pokémon into a body of water counts as a win regardless of its current HP.

===Quiz===
A few Pokémon, such as {{p|Corsola}} and {{p|Delibird}}, will choose to ask the player whether they want to participate in a quiz minigame. Three multiple choice questions are asked with three choices for every question. There is no time limit, although if the player gets one question wrong Pikachu will have to take the quiz again, often with different questions.

* There appears to be a typo in the dialogue string ..."not so far away are your Empoleon?", prior to thawing the door to {{P|Empoleon}}'s Snow Slide with the help of {{p|Mamoswine}}'s charge attack, where it is presumable that "your" should have been replaced with "you" instead.

** A similar typo is found in the {{pmin|Germany|German}} version. When {{p|Munchlax}} thanks the player, ''"PokéPark"'' is misspelled as ''"ParkPoké"'' in the dialogue string.
