Pokkén Tournament Arcade adds Scizor

Bandai Namco teased another Pokemon for Pokken Tournament, and now we finally have a confirmation, Scizor!

Leaks several months ago pointed towards Darkrai, Scizor, and Empoleon so far, the former two have been pretty accurate, so it stands to reason that the big penguin will make it in at some point. The real question though, is whether or not this will eventually come to Wii U. And why not? It sold really well considering the installbase.

As much as I like to hear that the Arcade version is still getting updates and new characters, I do wish they would add new characters like Scizor & Darkrai to the Wii U version so all of us that have the game can enjoy them too!

Check out the Trailer:

“Scizor, the steel/bug type Pokémon (known as Hassam in Japan), is coming to the arcade version of Pokkén Tournament, Bandai Namco revealed this week. A new trailer released today shows Scizor in action.

Scizor will be added to the arcade version of Pokkén Tournament on Oct. 20. After Darkrai, it’s the second Pokémon to be added exclusively to the arcade version. It’s not clear yet if Scizor is coming to the Wii U version of Pokkén Tournament, which shipped in March.

With the addition of Scizor, the Pokkén Tournament roster will consist of 18 playable fighters and 30 support Pokémon.”
