POKKEN TOURNAMENT: gameplay trailer (January 2015)

aww. lol oh well. The game looks interesting. I kinda do hope it comes out for retail soon.

@DoANoob Can't be done. I'm not too familiar with the different Tekken fighters, and this game plays nothing like Tekken. There are 0 similarities.

So @Nightpup, if you could compare any pokemon from the gameplay to the Tekken fighters, who would be who?

EWGF: Electric Wind God Fist. Signature move of the Mishima Fighters in Tekken. Basically the best move in the game.

^EWGF? As in, "Evade Wrong, Get Fucked"?

But no, it's definitely not Tekken in the slightest. The only Tekken-y thing I saw at all was Pikachu inheriting the EWGF.

@Awesmic Actually, there are full match gameplay videos uploaded. It's actually a cross between Ultimate Ninja Storm games, and classic Street Fighter. There are two modes of battle: Long-range, and close-quarters. Matches always begin in long-range mode. During this time, you can move in all directions, and are basically just slinging projectiles back and forth. When you land a solid hit, you switch to close-quarters mode, which is more akin to Street Fighter. You can only move forward and back, and can jump. When you land a "finishing blow" attack, you knock the enemy out of close-quarters and switch back to long-range mode. From there, the cycle repeats itself.

I was surprised myself that this gameplay resembles the Naruto storm series. However, I think it's more fumy than disappointing. Reason is cuz I like Pokemon and I like Naruto.

I think the roster should consist of bipedal Pokemon exclusively because Suicune looks out of place.

How misleading of Bamco. They give us the impression it's gonna be a Tekken-style Pokemon game by its name, yet the end result appears to be Pokuto Ultimate Ninja Storm.

Wait, this is a thing? A 3d pokemon fighter? I'm not sure if this is going to help or hurt 3d fighters...
