Bug, Rock, and Normal.Is bug the only type that has no representation here?
Garchomp had by the hardest combos in the mode of those I've played. Felt really good to pull them off.

It was posted earlier in the thread.
Put in the English names and you get
A + Pikachu
A Lucario Masked Pikachu
B + Charizard Weavile Sceptile Suicune
B Gengar Machamp Blaziken Gardevoir
C Chandelure
That seems like they would be easy wins. Counters are your friend.

I wonder if it's Gamepad res.
That would explain why it looked like shit on my TV and slightly less shit on the gamepad when I've tried the demo.
I'm actually surprised there's no Meowth. Could have got a little nostalgia in there with Pikachu vs Meowth.

That's actually the Japanese version of a GameFAQs Sm4sh tier list. Don't put much stock in it. Some things are right, some things are... not. At all.
Having success so far being annoying with Gengar's slow projectiles and then following them in for grab mixups. Gonna hit the lab later tonight and try to find some decent confirms into super. Right now I just have hypnosis (f.A I think) -> super which seems to scale it really hard.

I really hope there will be DLC (I think I read somewhere there won't though).
I just keep thinking of Pokémon that would be cool in this game. They've shown that weird ones like Chandelure can work (and work awesomely).
I kinda want a proper flying character, a legendary bird maybe.
Deoxys would be cool, maybe his Pokémon moves could morph him to the different types that give him a corresponding boost?
Hitmontop could have been a cool Hitmon to have in.

Heh I know. I'm just salty.

I do wish this game had KOTH/Survival. Sometimes I like watching other people play in between matches. That's where I spent most of my time in Injustice and MKX.
Gen 2 needs more love. Heracross, Smeargle, Hitmontop, Feraligtr, Scizor, etc.

Best tier for best mon.
I'm sure this has been asked, but is there a way to use the Pro controller as my primary controller? I can use it to navigate around but it seems to default to gamepad for training.
How exactly are you supposed to get out of someone locking you into a wall if you can't block, can't counter and can't jump out of the way? I literally had a Gengar just rush me into a wall and keep me there no matter what I did as he spammed the same 2 attacks, because I was constantly being knocked down I couldn't counter or block and I'd just got knocked back down again as soon as I got up.
Make sure you use the Pro to go past title screen.
Press + on the title screen twice with the Wii U Pro controller.
I've been using it all day.

I think one of the CPU trainers I encountered earlier in the Blue League was named Konoha with the attached quote of "Never Gives Up".
I'm onto your subliminal ninja storm shilling Namco!

wow that is gross, are you sure?
I doubt it's that low really. I think people are starting to forget how bad 720p can actually look.
Sadly it doesn't offer the same finesse as most of Nintendos main titles in the graphics department.

It could be. The soft image reminds me of Ninja Gaiden 2 which was 1120x585. I'm clearly not a pixel counter though I'm sure the beyond 3D and digital foundry folks will run their analysis soon.

I recorded a handful of matches with my friends rate my skills
I think it's the lack of anti-aliasing but who knows it could be sub 720p like Fast Racing Neo.

The Background looks sloppy but the playing area and HUD overlay look correct, even that crappy imgur image on the previous page looks right magnified 800x (MSPaint w/ grid)

do the graphics really matter?
as long as it plays good for a first Pokemon fighting game, make the improvements in the squeals

Haven't played that, so I guess I can't really compare it. But yeah, we'll find out soon enough.
The lack of AA certainly isn't helping.
The problem is the texture quality is questionable as well. Now whether part of that is due to it being a sub 720p res, or they just used low quality assets, I'm not sure.
Either way it's rather a shame, as the art style itself is pretty nice. Not to mention the gameplay itself is pretty fun.
Yeah Charizard doesn't move as fast, which is annoying as he isn't a slow Pokémon in the main series so I don't get why both Smash Bros and Pokkén make him out to be slow.
I always thought it looked pretty for a Wii U game, though I haven't seen it on my screen yet.
I feel like the pokemon look sort of low res too. Kinda disappointing.
Definitely not what I expected based on footage I'd seen of the game. Yikes.
Machamp is my favorite Pokemon and I've been having so much fun with them in this game. The damage is absolutely insane, I can't believe it. Especially against Shadow Mewtwo, who is made of glass and can die in two combos.
Who allowed this. It should be illegal to do this much damage and have this much fun.
