New Support Pokemon And Other New Info About Pokken Tournament

The Pokemon fan site Serebii has new Pokken Tournament information on content that’s specific to the Wii U version of the game. Not only have we learned some new information, but we’ve also been given some brand new artwork for the game that you can check out below. Pokken Tournament is out March 18th. 

• The Ferrum League is a feature exclusive to the Wii U version. Beating stages adds more support Pokemon and battle areas. There are 4 ranks to this league: Green League, Blue League, Red League & Chrome League. It takes place in the Ferrum region. In this region, Resonance Stones link people and their Pokemon. In this game, players can customize their player character’s gender, skin color, hair and so forth.
• For the Support Pokemon, Cubone uses Bonemerang which 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. Espeon uses Morning Sun which removes status conditions as well as healing Hit Points. The less time on the clock, the more it raises. Finally, Umbreon uses Snarl which sucks up the opponent’s Resonance Gauge and prevents them being able to land critical hits.
• There are various trainers you will encounter. Nia helps players navigate the world, and she chose Weavile. There are also trainers who exist only in the Wii U version who are tough to beat. Travis with his Garchomp, Keith with his Suicune and Erin with her Braixen
• New modes have been revealed. Practice Mode is where you get to test your skills with no time limit or health. Free Training allows you to train freely. Combo Dojo will teach you various combos for the Pokémon. There’s also the My Town mode where you can alter your character’s appearance and clothing by spending the in-game currency, PokeGold.
