Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 17 Comments
Update: The Pokémon Company has stated that there are currently no plans for DLC stages or Pokémon.
A slew of new support Pokemon have just been announced for Pokken Tournament. The lineup includes Espeon, Umbreon, Magneton, Quagsire, Cubone, and Diglet.
Below are details about each:
– Espeon uses Morning Sun which removes status conditions as well as healing Hit Points
– The less time on the clock, the more it raises
– Umbreon uses Snarl which sucks up the opponent’s Resonance Gauge and prevents them being able to land critical hits
– Cubone uses Bonemerang
– This is a quick long range attack that hits multiple times and brings opponents to you
– Diglett uses Dig which makes it easy to land combos when the opponent has been hit
– Magneton uses Tri Attack which aims upward
– It lowers opponents’ Speed & Attack and is good against jumping opponents
– Quagsire uses Mud Bomb
– It is effective on players on the ground and damages even if guarded against

New information about Shadow Mewtwo in Pokken Tournament has emerged from this month’s issue of CoroCoro.
The magazine notes that Psywave attacks can be used in multiple ways. It can go on the offensive with Power and Technical moves that keep shifting in order to confuse the opponent. While Psywave is mainly a close combat move used for setting up combos, it can also be used as a vortex to suck in opponents. It can be used as a projectile, too.

The Shadow Mewtwo amiibo card is being offered as a first-print bonus with Pokken Tournament. That’s not the only amiibo that works with the game, however.
On Nintendo’s official website, it’s confirmed that all amiibo accessories can be used in Pokken Tournament. These can be used to unlock in-game items. The listing doesn’t elaborate any further, so we’ll need to wait a bit longer for extra details.
