Why is it impossible to ever discuss this game anywhere? even /vg/ and /vp/ don't have threads

Because only like 12 people play it

Small player base.

The three-part doom of it being a cross between gimmick and traditional fighter, not as marketed, and most damming, not Smash.
I really like this game though, Blastoise and Croagunk are so much fun to play

/vp/ has people who unironically think it would've been possible to change mainline pokemon to have a battle system like this

with every pokemon

is the dlc even worth it
I already paid nearly full price for the game yesterday because I'm a fucking idiot

I did the trial and it was a pretty fun time. Not something I could see myself sinking a lot of hours into though

>and most damming, not Smash.
I consider that a positive given just how terrible that game's online is.

I'd say yes but I'm biased. Blastoise is probably one of the worse characters but there's something about his playstyle that speaks to me, kind of slow but with special movement options and an advancing guard. Aegislash isn't bad at all and has a neat stance-change mechanic that gives it a versatile moveset

It's the definition of "eh it's alright"

it's pokemon and might as well be a more boring VS game

and Allister is known pedo creep so I assume that's the same for all the 10 players who play this competitively

It's made by genius sonority isn't it? Game freak wants them dead

yet again bullshit info you pulled out of your ass this game was made by Bandai and GS was absorbed by gamefrak to make mobile games now

I think they died after Battle Revolution.

what about the support pokemon

Peak skill-character coming through.

I had a lot of fun using Gardevoir during the trail.

it's way more fun than fucking arms

We had some great threads during the free trial. Most fun I've ever had with a fighting game. Got slightly good and by good I mean I became knowledgable enough to understand what was going on and where I needed improvement.

/vp/ is full of underageb& but yeah that has baffled me even considering that. Also, all the people who think it should've only been fighting types and the extremely autistic rationalization used to support that. Pokken has a way of bringing out some of the biggest retardation I've ever seen in video game discourse, all from people who have probably never even touched the game.

why did this game flop
it's fun as fuck

Field phase. It’s like I’m playing an arena fighter but worse. The other phase is fun though

its a really fun game that i own but i feel like there isnt enough content for most people to justify the 60 dollar price tag

I don’t think Pokémon fans like fighters. It’s a legit fighting game but it’s weird with the field phase but it has combos and everything. Pokémon fans just suck and are either man children waifs fags or actual children

the field phase feels weird but there's still legit fighting game stuff happening, you have to hit confirm and actually outplay the other person to open them up so it's on a different level than some random arena fighter where you just spam beams from full screen or something
being able to manipulate when the phase changes or where the other person ends up when it does depending on what combos you do is also pretty interesting but having to figure all that shit out instead of it being more clear with a meter or something is dumb
I don't know what the fuck they were thinking giving characters just frames though, that shit is fucking cancer

Too slow for /vg/. Dunno about /vp/

>trail
Goddammit, it's trial.

It's a fighting game on the Switch. Also it was on the WiiU, and anyone that bought that version got fucked hard. Like me.

I bought the DLC and found it worth it, but I'm biased in the sense that I practically got the game for "free" since I beat a tournament soon after launch at a local vidya event that only had kids and other first-time players participating and got 50€ out of it
I don't even play the DLC chars tho, I like Pikachu

>720p docked
>480p handheld

Which characters have just frames? That’s kind of cool.
