''Panel de Pon'' is a [[wikipedia:Tile-matching video game|tile-matching puzzle game]] series developed by [[Intelligent Systems]], where gameplay involves matching three or more tiles of the same color at once to remove them from play. The first game in the series was released on the Super Famicom in Japan in 1995, and starred a series of fairies as its main characters. Its storyline involved the [[Lip|Fairy of Flowers, Lip]], setting out to free her friends from the control of the demon king Thanatos and save the world of the fairies.

The first game in the series was released on the Super Famicom in Japan in 1995, and starred a series of fairies as its main characters. Its storyline involved the Flower Fairy, [[Lip]], setting out to free her friends from the control of the demon king Thanatos and save the world of the fairies.


In bringing the game outside of Japan, ''Panel de Pon''{{'}}s original characters were completely replaced by the cast of ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'', and it was renamed ''{{s|mariowiki|Tetris Attack}}'' (referencing the name of unrelated puzzle series {{uvm|Tetris}}), setting the precedent of keeping the ''Panel de Pon'' gameplay but replacing its characters. The next three releases of the series, ''Tetris Attack'' on [[Game Boy]], ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Puzzle Challenge}}'', and ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Puzzle League}}'', continued to use other series' characters, specifically those of the {{uv|Yoshi}} and {{uv|Pokémon}} series. Pokémon Puzzle Challenge was originally going to have the fairy cast which ended up with a lot of [https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Puzzle_Challenge#Panel_de_Pon_GB unused content]. Lip can be seen in the game by inputting a specific button combination (which works in non-Japanese versions as well.) The last of these three also introduced the most recent English title for the series, ''Puzzle League''.
In bringing the game outside of Japan, ''Panel de Pon''{{'}}s original characters were completely replaced by the cast of ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'' (with characters from [[Rare]]'s ''Killer Instinct'' being planned earlier in the localization process<ref>[https://twitter.com/SMWikiOfficial/status/1294653713706037250]</ref>), and it was renamed ''{{iw|mariowiki|Tetris Attack}}'' (referencing the name of unrelated puzzle series {{uvm|Tetris}}), setting the precedent of keeping the ''Panel de Pon'' gameplay but replacing its characters. This was followed up by a port of ''Tetris Attack'' for the [[Game Boy]], which retained the {{uv|Yoshi}} series theming; the two ''Tetris Attack'' games were also re-released in Japan as ''Yoshi no Panepon'' ({{ja|ヨッシーのパネポン|Yosshī no Panepon}}, ''Yoshi's Panepon'').


The last game in the series to use the fairy-based theme of the original game was the version of ''Panel de Pon'' included in the Japan-only ''{{s|mariowiki|Nintendo Puzzle Collection}}'' for [[Nintendo GameCube]]. This version of the game starred a new generation of fairies similar to those of the Super Famicom game; Nintendo Puzzle Collection was planned to release [https://orig00.deviantart.net/35bb/f/2014/341/a/d/nintendo_puzzle_collection_page_by_ringostarr39-d8932dv.png outside] of Japan but was cancelled for unknown reasons, the game was rated on the [http://www.esrb.org/ratings/Synopsis.aspx?Certificate=9238&Title=Nintendo+Puzzle+Collection ESRB] ratings board. Since then, the next two games in the series (''{{s|mariowiki|Dr. Mario & Puzzle League}}'' and ''{{s|wikipedia|Planet Puzzle League}}'') featured no characters at all (barring a [https://tcrf.net/Planet_Puzzle_League Japan-only cameo] of Lip, and the Flower Fairy Mascot of the second generation of fairies, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srs7lmswzNo Pupuri] and a [https://smashboards.com/attachments/background-png.158911/ few] [https://smashboards.com/attachments/background2-png.158912/ backgrounds]), merely the gameplay without any story or other series' theming. After nearly a decade of absence, the series made a reappearance as a minigame in ''{{s|nookipedia|Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo}}'' under the name ''{{s|nookipedia|Animal Crossing Puzzle League}}'', featuring that game's characters. Playing the minigame lets the player unlock various pieces of clothing based on Lip's outfit for their [[villager]] to wear.
Another pair of rebranded ''Panel de Pon'' games, ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Puzzle Challenge}}'' and ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Puzzle League}}'', used the cast of the {{uv|Pokémon}} series. Both of these games were originally unreleased ''Panel de Pon'' titles, as indicated by unused ''Panel de Pon GB'' content found in ''Puzzle Challenge''<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Puzzle_Challenge#Panel_de_Pon_GB Pokémon Puzzle Challenge - The Cutting Room Floor]</ref> and a prototype of ''Panel de Pon 64'' using the same engine as ''Puzzle League''.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kANs1LYAm4c Panel de Pon 64 prototype gameplay footage]</ref> All English installments of the series moving forward continue to use the ''Puzzle League'' name.
 
The last game in the series to use the fairy-based theme of the original game was the version of ''Panel de Pon'' included in the Japan-only ''{{iw|mariowiki|Nintendo Puzzle Collection}}'' for [[Nintendo GameCube]]. This version of the game, based on the unreleased ''Panel de Pon 64'', starred a new generation of fairies similar to those of the Super Famicom game; ''Nintendo Puzzle Collection'' was planned for release outside of Japan and was shown at E3 2003,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NbVv0xHTUQ Nintendo Puzzle Collection E3 2003 Trailer - IGN]</ref> but was canceled for unknown reasons, despite receiving an {{iw|wikipedia|ESRB}} rating.<ref>[https://www.esrb.org/ratings/9238/Nintendo+Puzzle+Collection/ Nintendo Puzzle Collection - ESRB]</ref> The next two games in the series, ''{{iw|mariowiki|Dr. Mario & Puzzle League}}'' and ''{{iw|wikipedia|Planet Puzzle League}}'', featured no characters at all (barring Pupuri from ''Puzzle Collection'' appearing in the former, and Lip's stage being an unlockable theme in the Japanese version of the latter). These installments instead solely featured the gameplay without any story or theming from other series.

Reaching certain milestones in the minigame allows the player to unlock Lip's outfit for their [[Villager]] to wear. In 2020, 25 years after the series' debut, the original fairy-based ''Panel de Pon'' was released internationally for the first time, via the Nintendo Switch Online service.

Lastly, the Panel appears as a sticker in the game (using the Heart design) which is the tiles you moved around as the name of the series suggests; in English rebranded localizations of the game, the ''Panel de Pon'' games usually refers to them as a Block. Likely due to the fact that the Panels are not mentioned in those rebranded names outside of Japan.

*Since Furil, Pure, Sala, and Cecil from ''Nintendo Puzzle Collection'' have appeared as stickers in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

(''Dr. Mario'' & Puzzle League and the Japanese version ''Planet Puzzle League'' had very little character representation; however, it had cameos of Pupuri and Lip respectively but they were both characters from previous games).

Panel de Pon is a tile-matching puzzle game series developed by Intelligent Systems, where gameplay involves matching three or more tiles of the same color at once to remove them from play. The first game in the series was released on the Super Famicom in Japan in 1995, and starred a series of fairies as its main characters. Its storyline involved the Flower Fairy, Lip, setting out to free her friends from the control of the demon king Thanatos and save the world of the fairies.

In bringing the game outside of Japan, Panel de Pon's original characters were completely replaced by the cast of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (with characters from Rare's Killer Instinct being planned earlier in the localization process[1]), and it was renamed Tetris Attack (referencing the name of unrelated puzzle series Tetris), setting the precedent of keeping the Panel de Pon gameplay but replacing its characters. This was followed up by a port of Tetris Attack for the Game Boy, which retained the Yoshi series theming; the two Tetris Attack games were also re-released in Japan as Yoshi no Panepon (ヨッシーのパネポン, Yoshi's Panepon).

Another pair of rebranded Panel de Pon games, Pokémon Puzzle Challenge and Pokémon Puzzle League, used the cast of the Pokémon series. Both of these games were originally unreleased Panel de Pon titles, as indicated by unused Panel de Pon GB content found in Puzzle Challenge[2] and a prototype of Panel de Pon 64 using the same engine as Puzzle League.[3] All English installments of the series moving forward continue to use the Puzzle League name.

The last game in the series to use the fairy-based theme of the original game was the version of Panel de Pon included in the Japan-only Nintendo Puzzle Collection for Nintendo GameCube. This version of the game, based on the unreleased Panel de Pon 64, starred a new generation of fairies similar to those of the Super Famicom game; Nintendo Puzzle Collection was planned for release outside of Japan and was shown at E3 2003,[4] but was canceled for unknown reasons, despite receiving an ESRB rating.[5] The next two games in the series, Dr. Mario & Puzzle League and Planet Puzzle League, featured no characters at all (barring Pupuri from Puzzle Collection appearing in the former, and Lip's stage being an unlockable theme in the Japanese version of the latter). These installments instead solely featured the gameplay without any story or theming from other series.

After nearly a decade of absence, the series made a reappearance as a minigame in Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo under the name Animal Crossing: Puzzle League, featuring the Animal Crossing cast. Reaching certain milestones in the minigame allows the player to unlock Lip's outfit for their Villager to wear. In 2020, 25 years after the series' debut, the original fairy-based Panel de Pon was released internationally for the first time, via the Nintendo Switch Online service.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

The signature item of Lip, the fairy protagonist of the series, appears as the Lip's Stick item beginning in this game.

This magical stick was used by the character Lip in the Japanese game Panel De Pon, which was later released as Tetris Attack in the United States. Lip's Stick causes a flower to sprout from an enemy's head, inflicting damage as it grows. Quickly tap the Control Stick back and forth to get a flower off of your head.

Misc.[edit]

  • Beginning in Melee, Kirby's Stone move uses Lip's garbage block as one of its possible designs.
  • The flower effect is representative of the flowers seen in the Panel de Pon title screen. Other causes for the flower effect other than Lip's Stick includes some of Crazy Hand's attacks or the when Togepi is summoned using Leech Seed from the Poké Ball item.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

The Lip's Stick returns as an item in this game. Additionally, Lip's Theme (Panel de Pon), a remix originating from the first game of the series, appears as a track in My Music for PictoChat. There are also several stickers of characters from the series: specifically, Furil, Pure, Sala, and Cecil from Nintendo Puzzle Collection, along with one of the titular Panels. However, in localized versions of the game, these fairies are incorrectly named as Lip, Ruby, Elias, and Seren; these are the names of their respective counterparts from the Super Famicom version of Panel de Pon. Equipping the Furil/Lip sticker in Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary will grant the player a Lip's Stick when spawning into a level.

Lip's Stick
NTSC With this wand in hand, a simple flick of the wrist will sprout a flower from a character's head. If you keep on flicking, the flower grows larger. The bigger the flower, the more nutrients it craves, dealing more and more damage to the host. Shake it off by running around real fast!
Super Famicom: Panel de Pon (Japan)
PAL With a wave of this wand, make a flower bloom on your opponent's head. A lovely big flower. One that gets bigger the more times you hit them. It must be absorbing nutrients from its host, since your rival's damage will slowly go up and up while it's there. If this ever happens to you, try to shake it off by running around!
