    Pokkén Tournament A NEW FIGHTER WILL BE REVEALED ON 10/13

    Likely going to be Empoleon or Scizor as shown by the patch files, though any 7th Generation Pokémon would be a bit fitting to get more attention for the game.

    Pokkén Tournament Pokkén Arcade Update: Darkrai, Wii U fighters, and more!

    Noticing how the red dots appear when Darkrai uses certain moves, maybe like Calm Mind in terms of setup? Really hoping he's a free update with that panel arcade mode that got revealed as well.

    Proof why PAC-MAN is a bad character + suggestions on how to make him viable

    JFC send it in a letter to Sakurai or send it to someone that is working on Project M for Wii U. Posting this here is pretentious and makes it feel like you're threatening to stop maining Pacman unless we meet your demands, which makes little to no sense even with context. If you hate his moves...

    How do you fight a Wii fit who likes to camp at the ledge throwing volleyballs at you

    Mario Cape and both PSI Kids' Fsmash can reflect it. You can also hit the ball back

    Pokkén Tournament What would you say to recommend Pokken?

    It will take some time to get a handle on since Pokkén is a different beast from most fighters. There isn't really a fallback game to autopilot to in order to get started in this game, but part of why it is deep in the meta is because it works so differently. Simple inputs of Smash, the wide...

    Pokkén Tournament Shadow Tag! - Chandelure Social Thread

    The problem is that Eevee can give away the fact that you are planning an Overheat, unlike Espeon or Cresselia, who can be used after the attack. The reason Overheat works so well is that if the opponent is committing to a close range approach, they can't retreat fast enough to avoid it. Eevee...

    Rest Glitch vs Charizard and Bowser - Found the cause!

    Have you tried seeing if this happens in the air? Looks a lot like it just meteor smashes them.

    Pokkén Tournament The Stages of Pokkén Tournament - Analysis

    It's mostly the distance and synergy bonuses I took into consideration. Too far a distance can promote campy behavior or spam early on, especially it takes a speed pokemon like Weavile ~140 frames to run across the largest starting distance. As for Synergy, Shadow Colosseum gives a full Synergy...

    Pokkén Tournament The Stages of Pokkén Tournament - Analysis

    Hello fellow Pokkén fighters! I come to you today to discuss stage selection. Didn't see a topic on this here, so I decided to to make one. --- It's been stated multiple times that each stage is different, but just how different are they? The game gives little else other than the arena size...

    Pacman is the only Bearable Projectile Character

    If they did, they would all be lower tiers. All joking aside, Pacman does have a similar projectile play to Robin's. Both of them get great mileage off of any of their ranged attacks, regardless of charge, and require planning out. The problem, however, is the amount of commitment they need...

    Pokkén Tournament Shadow Tag! - Chandelure Social Thread

    Most close quarters combos (Poké Combo 1, High Stance X -> Y) will connect into a Burst Attack. For poke combo 1, do it instead of the smog attack, and the high stance attack is in the combo tutorial. However, if we land a raw Strong Aerial, it can connect into High Y, which will link into a...

    Pokkén Tournament Shadow Tag! - Chandelure Social Thread

    I can vouch for the spin attack. It pierces counter attacks too, which pressures the opponent into shield. This can allow us to follow up with a grab, which will always land Defense Down in the field. All we need is a Will-o-wisp and we can land the fully powered Hex, but we can just go for the...

    Pokkén Tournament Shadow Tag! - Chandelure Social Thread

    From what I've practiced with Chandelure, there aren't many close range options for us to take advantage of if the opponent closes in that aren't counters or grabs. I notice in my battles I'm losing a fair amount to this kind of flaw, any tips or advice? Also, light fixture best character.

    Important Pac-Man Patch Notes (Bayo and Corrin)

    Hydrant will automatically trigger Corrin's Counter so long as the two are nearby. Even if it is on the ground, it will proc the counter. I Might post a really bad video about it but if someone else can confirm this that'd be great. Guess we still got some jank. Wonder if this'll cause us to...
