Anytime I see a clip from this it’s always 1 person trying to playing skillfully and the other playing a cheap ass character that looks like it takes zero effort zero skill and zero thought. I’m not surprised this game did terribly and died as quick as it did.

[@robertstrott5001]

That’s not particularly true. If you think either of these characters require no skill no effort you couldn’t be more wrong in my opinion. There’s actually a huge multitude of reasons as to why this game failed and none of them are related to characters or their matchups. Perhaps the biggest reason it failed is because of the switch. Pokken is a much more technical fighting game than the most obvious comparison, Smash, which is more movement based. Smash is pretty lucky to be a widely loved party game that can be played competitively and has been firmly rooted in Nintendo’s lined up for decades. Pokken, which may be a Pokémon fighting game that everyone claimed to want, has basically no appeal to a more casual audience. Which leads to the second major flaw of this game, that nobody who actually enjoys fighting games owns a switch. If you enjoy games like mortal combat, street fighter, soul caliber, etc you most likely A.) don’t own a switch B.) wouldn’t buy a switch just to play one game competitively, or C.) don’t believe switch games have any competitive viability at all. Strangely enough this game gets no crossover appeal in the way smash does and no interest from the FGC at the same time, despite using the widely beloved Pokémon IP. Quite a shame.

Lol just accept you're bad at fighting games and move on, there are NO characters which take no thought to use in Pokken.
