The Japanese version of Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire was made compatible with the [[e-Reader]] accessory. There were five cards released for use with Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire, all of which were available through promotions. The cards provide tweaks to the game to grant players access to in-game events which could be very difficult to trigger. Due to incompatibility issues, the e-Reader functions are removed in the [[Virtual Console]] release. | The Japanese version of Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire was made compatible with the [[e-Reader]] accessory.
