Wonder Key

In the Pokémon Rumble series, Wonder Keys are keys that bring Toy Pokémon to life. The player has three Wonder Keys in a course. If the player's Pokémon faints, they will lose a Wonder Key. However, if the player switches a Pokémon that has not fainted, the player does not lose a Wonder Key. Also, if playing multiplayer mode, the players share three Wonder Keys between them. When either player loses a Pokémon, they lose a Wonder Key, and will fail if they lose all three keys. Wonder Keys can be upgraded by completing the Battle Royales from C Rank to S Rank. When upgraded, stronger Pokémon can be utilized and their full power can be unleashed. Once the Wonder Key is fully upgraded all Pokémon regardless of power can be used in the stages and Battle Royales.
