Croagunk Revealed as Next Pokkén Fighter

Contrary to popular predictions based on datamined information, Croagunk has been announced as the new fighter joining Pokkén Tournament’s roster. The game update will be coming to Japanese arcades on November 10th, with no details yet about Wii U release. Several characters have yet to debut on the console version as of writing.

We’ll update the post with a high-resolution trailer and more screenshots as they come.

What do you think? Toxicroak could have been so much better…

  1. You know, Stuffel is cute but, that Butt Tag kinda puts me off it and I dunno why.
    If it’s meant to be a red panda, why the tag?
    If it’s meant to be a Stuffed animal, why not say, (Outside the name). I guess it just confuses me

  2. Do you get the Mew in America for downloading VC Pokemon games or is that Japan only? I really want one it is my favorite legendary/mythical.

    • I got the mew! But if you have the RBY virtual games you can get a legit glitch mew to send to sun and moon! It’s really easy!

      • Yeah, see I didn’t learn about the 20th anniversary until march when the games got announced. I then forgot about them until literally one day after the Arceus one ended xC. Luckily I got the Darkrai, Hoopa, Keldeo, and Victini even though I already had the last two from gen V. I mean I am only missing like five legendaries at most. A legit Mew(As my brother traded my gen iv event one without me knowing.) Celebi, Shaymin, Arceus, Diancie, Genesect I don’t really like and Meloetta I will soon have.

        • Alright, but keep your spirits up and remember jerks are people who hate themselves and revel in other people’s sadness. You’re a Star so shine brightly amongst the darkness and illuminate the universe! 😀

          • (low key loving my name choice) I’ve never really cared too much about what others thought about me as long as I was happy. All that matters is I have my friends’ support and I can be comfortable in my self

          • Well, I hit massive depression when I originally came out since I really had one to talk to and no one want to talk to me about it so I felt isolated, but you’ve got friends who you can talk to so you should be fine. I’m here for you and I’m sure others on here are, too! 😀

          • Plus most of my friends are super gay XD I’m just so excited. I’ve been waiting on this but it was really frustrating because like, I never really knew when it was coming but now I know it will be within weeks

          • Yup, but some people like to take their shit out on others, unfortunately. Lol But, yeah! Just be yourself, because at the end of the day that’s who you’re spending the rest of your life with. 😛

  3. Just a note to all of you (Americans, at least. Possibly others): if you can’t get your code card from GameStop because they’re out or the “machine isn’t working”, they can still print you out a receipt with the code on it. It just won’t be anything aesthetically appealing. They had to do that for me back during the Arceus event.

  4. So I’m doing the pokémon league in Blue and its just making me think how much I’d love for a Kanto Remake with all the Evolutions of Kanto Pokémon in it (along with Larvitar, Sneasel, Houndour, Slugma, Murkrow, and Misdreavus seeing as they’re all found in Kanto in GSC)

  5. *Is doing Pokémon League*

    Lorelei: Uses Underlevelled Raichu with 2 X Special and 2 X Speed

    Bruno: Uses Underlevelled Wigglytuff with 2 X Defense, 2 X Special, 2 X Speed

    Agatha: Uses 2 X Specials and 2 X Speeds on Wigglytuff but gets Hazed

    Lance: Sit Venusaur in front of him and Toxic +Leech Seed to victory

    Like jeez the first three were hard but Lance is a push over so far

  6. I’m trying to decide…
    Later on I’m planning to do a Pokemon run after SM but its one that’s nostalgic. I would either play Pokemon Black again with my original team (Emboar, Stoutland, Galvantula, Seismetoad, Gothitelle, and Unfezant) or start a completely new run with Emerald (because it was my first Pokemon game, yet I barely played it).

    Which one do you think I should do?

  8. Gen I’s AI is hilarious

    Just Toxic/Leech Seeded Charizard to death despite it having a move that 1HKOs Venusaur by giving it a Rage boost and then it only used Rage

  9. Alright guys! Time for a “Fairy” question! 😛

    Which region of pokemon would you want to live in? And where in that region specifically?

    Mine: Unova, Virbank City

  10. Question time has started lads and ladettes ‘w’/

    What’s the most recent team you’ve finished a game with? Your most recent team doesn’t count if they haven’t been used to beat the Champion.

    Mine is

    Ven the Venusaur
    Wiggly the Wigglytuff
    Persia the Persian
    Nine the Ninetales
    Nido the Nidoqueen
    Rai the Raichu

    Pokémon Blue, was too lazy to give them proper nicknames and I don’t know their gender yet so I just used a part of the species name. I usually do better.

  11. Just a question that popped into my head, but…

    In the anime, when there’s a Pokemon League Conference, it has 3 on 3 battles till the semi-finals. At for the semi finals and the actual finals, there’s a full battle.

    So the question is: For the 3 on 3 battles, what are the Pokemon you would use and rotate? And for the semi finals and finals, what would your Pokemon teams for each be?

    Reply
  12. Alright, my turn for a question (again), but this time a real question.
    First, take your least favorite type, then make a team of 6 pokemon out of that type.

    Reply
  13. Odd question: if we lived in a world of Pokémon, which member on the forums would you want to fight most?

    Probably either Earthen (force vs finesse) or Prince Fae (battle for the Fairy crown) tbh
