Pokkén Tournament thinks of us as a small children since this game is full of tutorials, well, I am exaggerating a but I have to admit that the game did have several tutorials. This game takes the freedom that we can create our own avatar as usual in Pokémon, something that I liked a lot personally is the way you can make the avatar dress, I even feel that there is more freedom to choose and that is a bit Funny since Pokkén Tournament isn't even a mainline game.
Basically, our confrontations with other Pokémon will take place in some stage whereby we will be free to move as we want, our objective is to hit our rival as hard as we can with a combo there are several ways to do this, we will have distance attacks and direct attacks, also a grip and our support pokémon that we can choose at the beginning of the fight and this is where things get interesting.
Once we have strongly attacked our enemy, we will move on as if it were a traditional 2D fighting game, at this time you can corner your opponent more and nail combos but be careful, if your opponent manages to attack you, it will be you who happens to be cornered and finally, break the moment of tension.
Although the game is very fun, one of its cons is definitely the playable character roster, not because it is bad, but because there are very few, I understand that in the Switch version they added a few more but still, the The roster is still too small to be a Pokémon game, they hardly even put up any important Pokémon, at best the odd one. Due to this factor, the game becomes repetitive quickly and more if you are playing alone, we will proceed to talk about this.
Pokémon Tournament has several game modes, but I will focus on the single player mode. Here, we will fight against different rivals to make a place in the league and become victorious, it is not complicated and although the difficulty is progressive, it does not become a very difficult challenge, this game mode is very good, the problem is that it is It becomes super repetitive thanks to the limited roster, you play for an hour and you want to change the game.
In summary, it is a very good game but its roster takes away a lot of points, it is a shame since the potential wasted even in the version of Switch with more characters. The good thing is that Online gives you more time to live but in the long run it tends to bore if you don't have a friend by your side, I hope that in the future there will be a sequel with more Pokémon to play with.
