  No, Puzzle League is the American name for Panel de Pon. Pok?mon Puzzle League was based on the gameplay of Puzzle League (Panel Pon). In Europe the game is called Tetris Attack (it's not Tetris!). http://www.jaffray.org/lj/200305/tetris-attack.jpg

  WHAT? Does that mean New Super Mario Bros. won't be released until 2006? Aww, man... Pokemon Puzzle League rocked (in my opinion). If Puzzle League is anything like it, I might pick that up. And Dr. Mario with it! Such a deal...

  No, Tetris Attack rocked Pokemon Puzzle League was just a rip off of Tetris Attack.
