Ha, ha, ha. Nope, Tekken characters will not be making an appearance.
As we’re making a Pokemon fighting action battle game, I’ve already touched on this while on the livestream, but in this game there will not be a high/mid/low guard system mechanic. Instead, we’re planning to include a new type of [mechanic]…

Pokken Tournament overview plus messages from Pokemon’s president and Bandai Namco
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 4 Comments
Following today’s announcement of Pokken Fighters, the Pokemon Company launched an official website with a bit of content.
First, we have the following overview of the game:
The goal for this project was to enlarge the possibilities of Pokémon Company’s Pokémon series and to “bring into the world a Pokémon game that’s like nothing before”. This vision was made possible with the expertise in 3D action games that Bandai Namco has gained while creating games for the Tekken and Soulcalibur series.
In Pokken Tournament, Pokémon look more real than ever before and they move and attack smoothly according to player’s commands, so it is a completely new Pokémon battle experience. This is not just for children as the game can also be enjoyed by adult Pokémon fans in their twenties.
With cutting edge graphics, Pokémon battles are completely revived! Coming in 2015 for the arcades.
Head past the break for comments from the Pokemon president and a pair of Bandai Namco developers.
