Djing Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 3DS version please. I have been waiting for a game like this for over ten years. If Breloom or Toxicroak is playable I'm maining them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeDusk Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Hawlucha and Ludicolo, please If this was on 3DS I would buy this in a heartbeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwarfishh Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I need a Pangoro and Arcanine in this. Zoroark could be really cool too. And I agree with the 3DS sentiment expressed by those above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Oh was this the new announcement? Gr8, what is this? A pokemon fighter game or sorts? It looks good and interesting, going to follow this. Also, it's probably likely to be released for the Wii U rather than the 3DS, but who knows.

Shinehollow Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 3DS version please. If they don't have one,there is something seriously wrong. I need a Pangoro and Arcanine in this. Zoroark could be really cool too. I don't know how Arcanine would work,but Pangoro and Zoroark?My mains if they had a 3DS one,and if they where in the game. Wait,didn't some site find a Pokken Fighters trademark one time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alertcircuit Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I'm glad they made an English trailer for a Japanese only game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClevelandSteve Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I'm glad they made an English trailer for a Japanese only game. It's Japan-only for now, but lots of fighting games get released in Japanese arcades before being released worldwide on consoles (Off the top of my head, I think one of the recent Street Fighter 4 versions did something like that). And the fact that this one got an English trailer has me hopeful that it will follow the same pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I'm glad they made an English trailer for a Japanese only game. I'm glad that means it'll be released outside of japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikethfc Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 So what does sf think, limited to just fighiting types, even if it isn't now is a bad time to like water types. Poliwrath and some of the water starters (Swampert when.)Also would there even be an uproar if Pikachu isn't in it, I know he's the mascot and everything but I don't know anybody to actually like them that much, especially after Lt. Surge's bullshit in Stadium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) This looks pretty cool, but will it only be Fighting type Pokemon? :/ I hope not, because there are tons more Pokemon than just the Fighting types that would fit in this game. But as long as Keldeo can be used (it's a Fighting type! lol), I really can't complain. Keldeo's my favorite. <3 I also hope it doesn't remain an arcade only game. There are no arcades around here except for Chuck E. Cheese's. >_> Edited August 26, 2014 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikethfc Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 It won't Tekken games always start as arcades and come to consoles.Also this http://www.siliconera.com/2014/08/26/pokkn-tournament-will-focus-action-aspect-fighting-games Shame Omastar won't work, it would probably be a funny TPP reference for a good 10 seconds or so.

Shinehollow Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Shame Omastar won't work, it would probably be a funny TPP reference for a good 10 seconds or so. It might work.Though,I bet 50% of the Pokemon in the game are going to be fighting types.If Weavile was in there,It'll be like a dream come true.

I think Weavile might have a chance, humanoid shaped so it wouldn't be too bad to do, plus being ice/dark which I can't remember any fighting types overlapping with (Although I only played HG and gens 1-3) Also how do you think evolutions will work, if they're in it at all, part me of is tempted to say mega when you fall two battles behind or on "excellent" health, but the latter would take too long to show and interrupt the flow I reckon, like how in the final battles of SCIV they'd change the music which just ended up overplayed and annoying Edited August 26, 2014 by Mikethfc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roivann Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Does Tekken have supers? Cause some pokemon could have mega evolutions for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Stewart Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) Does Tekken have supers? Cause some pokemon could have mega evolutions for that. I don't think so. Though Harada said it's not using the Tekken engine, so the game might have super moves anyway.

Mikethfc Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Tekken doesn't, although SCV they implemented them but it wouldn't work because they'd have to de-evolve or something, plus there may be pokes without megas there.Feel free to correct me on this as I never played X/Y so I don't know how megas work, I assumed they stayed mega for the rest of the battle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if you can't, I can't see people complaining much if you can in Pokken. It's a fair compromise to get it more suited to a fighting game environment. Hell, that's what Smash is doing IIRC.

MRDRHAWK Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I'm glad they made an English trailer for a Japanese only game.except this is pretty common for fighting games. most major Japanese fighters get released in Japanese arcades first, then get ported to consoles. and considering the amount of money this shit would print over here, no way we don't see this game.Interesting that Harada himself is involved here. Curious to see if there'll be actual supers in this game or it'll play like SCV with the Brave Edges being replaced by more typical specials.

MRDRHAWK Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 also, on the subject of the Megas: they may be separate playstyles. like, in SCV I know a couple of characters got separate styles and therefore two character slots, so take that as you will. not sure why that'd be the case for Lucario though, but Heracross is feasible since it can go from an all-around fighter to a strong, slow type with crazy combo potential due to Skill Link.

TopHatMat Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Chances are that since the game is using the Tekken engine of play that there's bound to be a ninja pokemon. I'm calling it now but I bet Greninja's in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikethfc Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 It's said it's using a new game engine rather than Tekken's one, but there won't be high/mid/low guards (like there isn't in Tekken)"Also not confined to fighting types or humanoid characters" from Harada's twitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roivann Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I'm predicting Golem, Blaziken, Sawk, and Throh. #SunkernforPokken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Blaziken was in the teaser screenshot from what I remember, so that one's definitely in. And if this is the case, Infernape MUST be too. I mean, why would one bipedal Fire/Fighting type get in and not the other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
