The types of moves that they can perform in this manner include long and short range attacks, anti-air moves, rushdowns, grabs, and more.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; 2 Support Pokemon for each Pokemon fighter<br \/>\n&#8211; These are picked in preset pairs<br \/>\n&#8211; Once a pair is picked, one is actually selected to participate at the start of each round<br \/>\n&#8211; 6 Support Pokemon at the location test<br \/>\n&#8211; Each specializes in providing a specific type of one-off assistance that broadly fall into three different categories: Attack, Interference, and Buff<br \/>\n&#8211; Recharge period before a Support Pokemon can be sent out again<br \/>\n&#8211; This is signified by their darkened portrait lighting up in clockwise chunks<br \/>\n&#8211; Recharge speed varies among Support Pokemon<\/p>\n<p>Emolga: Uses Shock Wave as a long distance attack to slow down the opponent\u2019s speed.<br \/>\nSnivy: Uses Leaf Tornado as an anti-air attack to maintain distance<br \/>\nFrogadier: Uses Water Pulse to fire off discs of water from afar.<br \/>\nFennekin: Uses Ember as a multi-stage, dome-shaped area attack.<br \/>\nLapras: Uses Surf as a wide horizontal rush attack to deal major damage.<br \/>\nEevee: Uses Helping Hand to temporarily buff attack power and heal HP.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/gematsu.com\/2015\/02\/pokken-tournament-location-test-gameplay-report\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese publication Game Watch attended a location test for Pokken Tournament at the Namco Lazona Kawasaki arcade.
