Sceptile, Electrode, and Farfetch'd Confirmed for Pokkén Tournament

[Teapot]

Bandai Namco have today posted a video to their Japanese YouTube account revealing Sceptile as a playable character in Pokkén - quite fitting, as it's nearly Christmas. The same video also reveals Electrode and Farfetch'd as new support Pokémon.

​

The Pokémon were initially rumoured earlier this week, when an image surfaced showing Pokénchi presenter Shoko Nakagawa sitting in front of some sort of booth for the game, with the three new Pokémon visible in the background.

The video can be found below, and shows off Sceptile, Electrode, and Farfetch'd in action.

When I heard the rumors I thought they sounded far-fetched. Glad I was both wrong and right.

I thought they sounded far-fetched

Well, apparently it was actually Farfetch'd. -runs away-

 

[The Blue Blur]

Now that we have Blaziken and Sceptile, all we need is Swampert but I doubt he'll be in the game.

 

[Neopolitan]

El- Elec- *can't finish the word in confusion*

 

[alolatrainer]

Im just loving this game more and more

 

[Jeydis]

Farfetchd as an actual fighter would have blown my mind. Still works out as an assist though.

Sceptile looks incredibly fun to play with. Now all we need is Swampert, and we'll have all three Hoenn Starters... Anyone else hoping for Infernape and Emboar to be playable in this game as well?

We all knew Sceptile was gonna be in this. Next is Do U Even Lift Bro Swampert.

At first I thought that meant Electrode ans Farfetch'd would be playable characters, which completely confused me. Good to see some underloved Pokemon appearing in this game, regardless!

 

[Green Poliwrath13]

They should have made Electrode and Farfetch'd playable characters!!!!!!!

I Mean, more Kanto Pokémon would be really nice!!!

 

[Al the Bard]

I feel like all Pokemon could be playable characters but over 700 PCs would be too much. Septile looks pretty cool. I'd like to see Hawlucha as a playable character.

It sounds exciting, just thinking about makes my heart skip
