Pokkén Tournament Adds Empoleon to Its Arcade Roster
Pokkén Tournament, available both in arcades and on Wii U, is a tremendously fun fighter that uses a cast of Pokémon as its fighters. The original release featured a sizeable roster, but Bandai Namco have been adding some new characters to the Arcade version. The latest: Empoleon!
Empoleon is a Water and Steel type Pokémon that fans will remember as the evolved form of Piplup, the best Sinnoh starter Pokémon in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. A trailer is expected to be released shortly showcasing the magnificent harbinger of water-based destruction in its full glory.
Empoleon will be added to the game 15th December. Darkrai, Scizor, and Croagunk have also been recently added to the Arcade version of the game, and it’s unclear yet when or if they will be added to the Wii U.
Perhaps we may see some sort of enhanced version of Pokkén Tournament for the Nintendo Switch next year.
