For years, we've always wondered what it is like to see Pokémon battles that rival the action and intensity of the TV show. I mean sure, the games have evolved and battles look more entertaining and flow faster, but it's still a turn-based affair.

I was happy to see this game come out for the Nintendo switch. I did not have a Wii U, so this game was new to me. I enjoyed some of the spins on classic characters when picking a Pokémon. I also like that it's not a typical Pokémon battle where you take turns.

We reviewed Pokkén Tournament back on the Wii U and found it to be a reasonably good entry point fighter. With no need for stories or adventures, the game goes straight for one-on-one battles.

Pokkén Tournament DX serves as a definitive edition of Nintendo's fighting game, and it fits well on the Switch aside from choppy split-screen multiplayer. Five new characters and a new three-on-three mode are noteworthy additions, though the new challenge mode doesn't live up to its name.

I loved it cuz I love pokemon

I ordered this after Christmas for my wee boy and he is over the moon with it. Graphics are amazing and he plays for hours. loves to explore the worlds and find lots of exciting new pokemon.

when I got the game my kids loved they have played it all day since it came its well good the battles the gameplay it excellent

Dynamic stages that switch between a 3D arena and a 2D plane through combos keep the action exciting, and the Ferrum League,...

When it was released during the Wii U twilight year of 2016, Pokken Tournament was the fighting game nobody expected; Matt's review of the game was a positive one, with some criticisms aimed at the roster selection and leveling mechanics.

New characters and content add variety and depth to the existing roster; Accessible gameplay options for single and multiplayer; Game has updated visuals and runs smoothly in most modes

Story mode is still a bit weak; Split-screen multiplayer performs worse than usual
