Puyo Pop, known as Minna de Puyo Puyo (みんなでぷよぷよ; "Everybody Puyo Puyo") in Japan, is the first of the Puyo Puyo games made for the Game Boy Advance, and the first produced by Sonic Team. It is the last game to solely use the original Madō Monogatari cast, as later games would introduce many new characters to go alongside them.

The Japanese title refers to the game's four player mode and became a staple in future games. The Western title is simply named Puyo Pop (a recycled title from the Neo-Geo Pocket version of Puyo Puyo 2).
