if I had a nickel for every time I could play a fighting game with a frog character that traps people in a poison bubble...this game looks sick though as someone who played battle capacity

I love how Failinks was the gen 8 rep. It would have been so easy to choose a more recognizable/traditional fighter like one of the Urshifus or grapploct.

[@EggscellentTree]

Also toxicroak as gen 4 rep instead of infernape or lucario

Falinks is great. But the moment you mentioned them not having Grapploct, I got sad.

Mienshao looks absolutely wild! Also, Chestnaught having a lil' Chespin is so adorable! I love this game already and I haven't even installed it!

[@craniifer]

I really wish Pokken had this kind of focus on Fighting Types. I love Primeape and Falinx in particular, so I love seeing them get their justice here.

[@Rhino-n-Chips]

Love the choice of using the Pokémon game cries instead of the anime ones, a shockingly rare thing for fan games. Plus having a rep for every generation, which seems like a no-brainer, until you remember that Type:Wild had 0 gen 2 reps, but had both Blaziken AND Combusken.

[@MasterHeracross]

Why the hell have I've never heard this fan game before?! It looks fantastic, and Heracross is a fighter too! Incredible can't wait to play it.

[@gaiden_tai]

Heracross with the Kirby beetle grab reference, loved it

[@pelipperd00d31]

Fallinks is one of my absolute favorites from SwSh And, due to its composition and appearance, it can get pretty fun to design a moveset for Fallinks Didn't disappoint

[@christopherbennett5858]

Oh I agree. I mean, it’s literally a six man Pokémon team. Fighting against one of it existed would be a nightmare.

[@resurrection7480]

As a seasoned casual fighting game player I am so proud that they refrenced moves from other fighting games like primeape uppercut being a refrence to sean's uppercut from both street fighter 3 2nd impact and 3rd strike and chesnaught's tackle refrencing urien's shoulder tackle and chesnaught's stance resembling t.hawk's stance and so much more. Maybe I am stretching but its hard not to find similiarities

[@jerry3115]

[@madamaklee]

​​@@jotasso21 Heracross are sexually dimorphic. Males have jagged horns that look made to impale, but females have "heart" shaped horns that seem more caring. The one in this game has hearts on its horn, meaning it's a girl

[@HawkBreland]

[@freshmanu13]

Dudeeeeee clean game. Hope add more characters (I think there are plenty of Pokemon to experiment diverse styles) and this game will rock it. Of course, if Nintendo doesn't fk this up. I'll be glad to see Conkeldurr, Hitmonchan and Hariyama.

[@michaelkowal3230]

I think they're currently working with one rep for each gen right now, Mienshao, Primeape and Blaziken already fill gens 5, 1 and 3

[@ammagon4519]

Watch Hariyama be straight E. Honda from Street Fighter

[@jotasso21]

I BELIEVE IN CHESNAUGHT SUPREMACY

[@randysuarez2849]

It would be so cool if they added a secret character by doing a special input in the choose character menu. Like for example annihilape would be awesome in game but we already have primeape. It could kind of be like akuma and ryu in street fighter, you do a few special in-outs and get a character that seems a little similar to primeape being annihilape.

[@theflashfan3234]

This is AMAZING! And the spritework and animation is so beautiful too! I'd love to see what movesets they could come up with Staraptor, as it's my favorite, but poor bird ain't a fighting type lmao

[@useruser-my6op]

This is so good! Interested to see the ff. Mons (only adding 1 per Gen): 1. Hitmonlee - I think its spring legs will be cool visually 2. Hitmontop - the Capoeira influence and the spinning top look will definitely be interesting 3. Medicham - it will be like Dhalsim 4. Gallade - Toxicroak is the only interesting Fighting type in this Gen so there's not much choices but I guess we can incorporate Gallade's slashing moves 5. Scrafty - it'll be fun if it kept holding its "pants" while fighting, or incorporate some headbutt moves 6. Hawlucha - I love Pangoro, but Hawlucha being posey and flashy like a Luchador will seem fun 7. Crabrawler - yeah it's not fully evolved, but it's interesting! Crabominable if it should only be fully-evolved Mons 8. Grapploct - by virtue of not having a humanoid anatomy, even if it's ugly

[@PokyDaBesto]

Primeape is not fully evolved so yea crabrawler could be an option

[@mercuryon8608]

The art style is absolutely fantastic and the game looks hella fun to play

Love to see Poliwrath (as grab fighter like Zangief), Zapdos galar (fast fighter), Iron Valiant (as mixed melee and semi sword fighter), Quaquaval (dancer fighter like Eddie in Tekken), Mega Mewtwo X (as boss fighter like Rugal), Hitmonchan (boxing fighter like Balrog) Kommo-O (as heavy fighter), and Sirfetch (full sword fighter). I'd like to say "Lucario and Machamp too" but they're super popular and maybe under consideration.

[@issysito320]

Bro wrote an ultimatum

[@longbeing]

Grappler Poliwrath would be fun, even though making it a standard grappler might be too close to Bewear’s moveset. I’m imagining what Heavenly Poliwrath Buster would be like, and that sounds great.

[@AverageEggmonEnthusiast]

Galarian Zapdos was being voted on in their discord! Along with meloetta and Buzzwhole. Not a fan of buzzwhole personally I think the other two would be cooler. I like the idea of Quaquaval as a dance fighter since I think it’s based on capoeira. Personally I’d love to see Mega Lopunny because the jazzersize bunny would be really cool translated into a fighting game but given what people online have done to it… I doubt it would ever happen.

At this point, I'm wondering why the devs are doing this instead of a new, safe IP that can sell (if they wanna, that said). Game is amazing, art style is memorable and the game is decently balanced. This being a Pokémon game (which I love for sure) is still always under threat of any IP shenanigans. Respect for doing it out of straight love though
