The latest Pokken Tournament DX character trailer is here, and this one focuses on Garchomp. Give it a watch:
The Team Match event is now live in Pokemon Duel. Players can join one of three teams – Venusaur, Charizard or Blastoise – and earn points by winning battles and opening Time Boosters. There are individual rewards for reaching certain point thresholds, as well as a Rare Metal EX, which will go to the team with the most points at the end of the event.
The next tempest trial titled Moment of Fate will be coming September 23rd and in order to prepare for this trial a new summoning focus based around it has become available. This focus includes Ike, Titania, Soren and Mist. So if you’re looking for a Path of Radiance character this could be your chance.
A special present is being given to all Pokemon Shuffle players that check in, it is a Shiny Ho-Oh. Some special stages are getting repeat runs such as Chikorita (Winking), Lugia, Meganium and Typhlosion. As well as a new Pokemon Safari with Unown N, Unown I, Unown C and Unown E as the Pokemon to get, this will run til September 26th.
With the Pokemon I Choose You! movie coming out it seems that the original cap Ash’s Pikachu is being distributed now to celebrate. The code is PIKACHU20 to land your special Pikachu. This Pikachu also comes with a special Z-crystal Pikashunium Z.
You will only get to choose on of the special Pikachu caps, so if this isn’t the one you want you best wait a bit longer.

In what feels like an annual tradition now, Pokken Tournament will be making another debut following its initial 2015 release in arcades, then 2016 for Wii U, and now in 2017 on Switch. While the Wii U version was missing a few Pokemon from the arcade version for whatever reason, the game itself presented a fun and unique take on mixing great elements from Tekken and Soulcalibur and infusing them with the world of Pokemon. For fighting fans and Pokemon enthusiasts, it was a great game to own and add to your Wii U library, and, while not entirely robust, certainly kept the attention and fun for a while following its release. The Switch port, Pokken Tournament DX, aims to be the “deluxe”, or definitive, version of the game much like how Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is. But unlike Mario Kart 8 Deluxe where it felt like a genuine upgrade on Switch riding its way from the Wii U, Pokken Tournament DX fails to deliver any plausible reason to jump in for round 2 unless you didn’t own a Wii U or skipped out the first time around.
Nintendo has released an English version of the third interview conducted to celebrate the Super NES Classic Edition. This time, Super Metroid gets the focus. Metroid creator Yoshio Sakamoto and sound designer Kenji Yamamoto participated in the discussion.
Sakamoto and Yakamoto delve into the making of Super Metroid in the new interview. There’s talk about how the project came to be, the approach to creating baby Metroid sounds, and how hectic things got towards the end stages of development – including staffers taking turns sleeping and working during Christmas.
Continue on below for the full interview.
Azure Striker Gunvolt developer Inti Creates has revealed another new game for Switch. This winter, we’ll be seeing the shooter Gal*Gun 2 on Nintendo’s console.

Since all of the girls at at his academy want their chance to be with him, they “will do whatever they can to express their love”. That’s where the Pheromone Shot comes into play. You’ll need to use the weapon to fend off the girls’ advances by “by giving them euphoria”.
