This table features {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}} and is unique among these five bonus stages in that it is the only one where, rather than a time limit being the defeat condition, the player only has one ball to complete the stage with. If the ball is lost, the stage ends. When the stage begins, the field is covered with Diglett that, when hit with the ball, will retreat into the table. The player earns points for each Diglett he knocks down. When all the Diglett are knocked down, a Dugtrio appears in the back center portion of the table. Hitting the Dugtrio three times will earn bonus points and complete the bonus stage. | This table features {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}} and is unique among these five bonus stages in that it is the only one where, rather than a time limit being the defeat condition, the player only has one ball to complete the stage with.

This table is set in a graveyard where the player is attacked by several wild {{p|Gastly}}. Hitting ten Gastly with the ball will cause {{P|Haunter}} to appear instead. Hitting ten Haunter with the ball will draw out a giant {{p|Gengar}}. Hit Gengar five times to complete the stage. Hitting the necessary Pokémon will earn points. There is a time limit of 1:30 on the stage; as long as the player does not take this long to win, he/she can lose the ball an unlimited number of times without penalty. | This table is set in a graveyard where the player is attacked by several wild {{p|Gastly}}.

A {{p|Meowth}} runs around the field. When the player hits Meowth with the ball, it will pause briefly and drop a pile of coins. Up to six piles of coins can be on the field at a time; if there are six, hitting Meowth any more will not cause more coins to appear. Collecting a pile of coins will earn points and cause a coin icon to appear at the top of the screen. Collecting coin piles consecutively without hitting Meowth will apply a multiplier to both the number of coin icons added to the top of the screen and the points earned. This multiplier is equal to the current number of coin piles consecutively collected, and thus can go no higher than 6×. Once the player has 20 coin icons on top of the screen, the bonus stage is completed; however, the player is allowed to continue the bonus stage until time runs out or until he loses his current ball to gain more points. There is a time limit of 1:00 on the stage, with unlimited extra balls (unless the stage is completed). Losing the ball before the stage is completed causes all the coin piles to disappear and incurs a four-coin penalty. | A {{p|Meowth}} runs around the field.

{{p|Mewtwo}} stands in the back center of the otherwise open stage, surrounded by six black circles moving around it in a circular pattern. Hitting these circles will earn 1,000,000 points and cause them to disappear momentarily. Hitting Mewtwo will earn 50,000,000 points per hit. As the player hits Mewtwo more, the number of circles on the field will decrease gradually. Hitting Mewtwo 25 times will complete the stage. There is a time limit of 2:00 on the stage, with unlimited extra balls. | {{p|Mewtwo}} stands in the back center of the otherwise open stage, surrounded by six black circles moving around it in a circular pattern.
