Pokkén Tournament (Japanese: ポッ拳 POKKÉN TOURNAMENT Pokkén: Pokkén Tournament) is a Pokémon arcade fighting game heavily based on the Tekken series gameplay style. Bandai Namco Entertainment, the owners of the Tekken intellectual property, developed the game under license from The Pokémon Company, and are responsible for distributing arcade cabinets in Japan.

After a limited demo run at a few locations, the full game became widely available at various public arcades in Japan starting from July 16, 2015. On July 22, 2015, a Dave & Buster's representative stated on Reddit that the arcade game would be tested at D&B locations, and became available at the Times Square Dave & Buster's on September 24, 2015 for a limited time.

On August 21, 2015, a Wii U port of Pokkén Tournament was revealed. The Wii U port will be released in Japan, North America, and Europe on March 18, 2016 and in Australia on March 19, 2016, and will feature Pikachu Libre and Shadow Mewtwo as playable characters.

While the Wii U port works with regular Wii U controllers, the Pokkén Tournament Pro Pad accessory will also be released, being a special controller that is similar to the Pokkén Tournament arcade controller.

Gameplay

Taking place in Ferrum, the game combines the gameplay of the Tekken series with Pokémon characters.

Battles

Battles have two different phases: Field Phase (Japanese: フィールドフェイズ), where players fight in a 3D battlefield, and Duel Phase (Japanese: デュエルフェイズ), where players fight in a 2D battlefield. When the phase is changed, it is called a Phase Change (Japanese: フェイズチェンジ).

Modes

  • Practice (Japanese: チュートリアル)
  • Online Battle (Japanese: 全国対戦)
  • Single Battle (Japanese: シングルプレイ)
  • Local Battle (Japanese: 店内対戦)
  • My Town
  • Ferrum League

Promotion

A brief snippet of footage from the game featuring Lucario and Blaziken first appeared at the end of a retrospective at the Pokémon Game Show, which was held in Tokyo on August 17 and 18, 2013. Later that month, the game's title was discovered as a trademark registered in Japan and the United States, although the connection between the title and the footage was not confirmed until the game's formal announcement. The game was officially announced on a NicoNico livestream that was held by the The Pokémon Company on August 26, 2014, which showed Lucario (which Mega Evolved into Mega Lucario) fighting Machamp. The English Pokémon site also mentioned the announcement, and uploaded the debuting teaser trailer for the game on their YouTube channel.

Bandai Namco Games, the game's developer, asked for fighter suggestions. Japanese residents could Tweet at @pokken_official with the Pokémon they would like to see using the hashtag #ポッ拳 in order to make a suggestion. Due to having the most requests, Gengar was confirmed as a fighter in April 2015.

Trivia

  • In the trailer announcing the game coming to Wii U in spring of 2016, the scene where Mega Lucario charges up an Aura Sphere could possibly be a reference to the opening of Super Street Fighter II, in which Ryu charges and fires off a Hadouken.
  • This is the only Pokémon game to use its Japanese logo in international releases.
  • This game's German release is the only one whose name does not utilize the portmanteau Pokkén, instead opting for a title with the separated terms "Pokémon Tekken".
    • This change may be due to the fact that the German word for smallpox, Pocken, shares the same pronunciation with the term Pokkén.
