'''Pokémon Rumble Blast''' (Japanese: '''スーパーポケモンスクランブル''' ''Super Pokémon Scramble''), known as '''Super Pokémon Rumble''' in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, is a sequel to the WiiWare game [[Pokémon Rumble]]. It is the first [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Pokémon games|Pokémon game]] and it was released in Japan on August 11, 2011 (previously July 28, 2011), in North America on October 24, 2011, in Europe on December 2, 2011, and in Australia on December 8, 2011. Unlike its predecessor, which only featured {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from [[Generation I]] and [[Generation IV]], Pokémon Rumble Blast features all five [[generation]]s of Pokémon, except {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, and {{p|Genesect}}, who were not officially revealed at the time of its debut.

The game starts with a showdown between {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} on the Battle Royale stage, manifesting as a spirit behind their Toy form. The player starts from [[Toy Town]], where the player's Mii enters to set a {{p|Pikachu}} into motion. On the first stage, called the [[Beginner's Park]], the player fights the [[Unova]] [[starter Pokémon]] and the [[elemental monkeys]]. The game ensures that the player recruits {{p|Oshawott}}, {{p|Tepig}} and {{p|Snivy}}. {{p|Victini}} is also available here. The first boss is Zekrom, which is an unwinnable battle. The stage collapses, and the player's [[Toy Pokémon]] fall into another location.

 

A cut scene will then play showing a {{p|Cobalion}} speaking to a crowd. He then says the [[Glowdrops]] have the power to remove Rust from materials and shows it by pouring some Glowdrops on a rusty object and the Rust disappears. He tells the Pokémon to gather as many Glowdrops as possible. The Toy Pokémon then march off and the cut scene ends.

The player's Toy Pokémon will land in [[Toy Town]] and meet with {{p|Lillipup}} who will explain several things about the town, and will tell the player to go to the meadow. Upon returning, the town discovers that the Glowdrops in the town have been stolen, and they blame {{p|Pawniard}} for stealing them. Upon reaching him he states that the player will never pass the coming Battle Royale and heads off. Upon getting to 1-4, [[Challenger's Ground]], the player's Toy Pokémon must battle him in the semifinals and win the final round. He then admits that he did not steal the Glowdrops and tells the player's Toy Pokémon that it was another group of Pokémon lead by a {{p|Krookodile}} that is headed towards [[Easterly Town]]. The citizens of Toy Town then guide the player's Toy Pokémon to Easterly Town.

Before the player makes it to Easterly Town, Cobalion is again speaking to a crowd, demonstrating the effect of Glowdrops on rust. The cut scene ends again.

Upon reaching Easterly Town, the player's Toy Pokémon will encounter Krookodile taking Easterly Town's Glowdrops, attacking the Pokémon that interfered with him, and leaving. The player the gives chase through several forts. The player meets a {{p|Gurdurr}} along the way and states that the great Glowdrop fountain has enough Glowdrops to restore the towns' Glowdrops to normal. Upon reaching the area, the player encounters Cobalion who has come for the Glowdrops. He then challenges the player to a 3 on 1. All the player's Pokémon will faint in 2 hits. Cobalion then takes the Glowdrops while the player is unconscious.

After successfully completing all four Battle Royale arenas, the Path of Heroes will be complete, allowing the player to cross to the other side, at which point they will reach the World Axle. The player arrives at the scene of Cobalion's army using Glowdrops to open the World Axle. However, Cobalion's army starts rusting away, leaving him wondering what is happening. The rusting is revealed to be caused by [[Dark Rust]], an evil Wonder Key that makes Toy Pokémon {{pkmn2|Rusty}} in order to control them as part of his Rust Army.  

The Toy Shop is a key location for the player, who is represented by their Mii, as it serves for the main head quarters for all StreetPass related events. Inside a player's Toy Shop is the [[Toy Pokémon]] world known as [[Toyland]]. The shelves of the store are stocked with various Toy Pokémon and a display of many of the player's strongest Pokémon is featured in the window.

Every day, the player will receive notification via the Shopscope located in any of the towns. The Shopscope will show a Mii leaving the player's Toy Shop after making a purchase and the player will receive Ⓟ, as well as the possibility of unlocking a new Pokémon when a milestone is hit. The customer is either someone the player has StreetPassed, or a Mii they have registered on their 3DS. The player can also get customers by redeeming 10 Play Coins.
