Garchomp, Braixen, and the standard, non-shadow Mewtwo will all be showing up to the tournament. A standard Mewtwo was to be expected, but the other two are pretty exciting. I’m looking forward to seeing Braixen in action.
It’s worth mentioning that none of these Pokémon can be the one Nintendo and Bandai Namco are teasing, as they don’t fit the single clue they gave. As such, this week’s a good week to be aPokkénfan. Four new confirmed characters!
Wednesday: Pokkén Tournament + Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire + Pokémon the Movie XY & Z 2016 – CoroCoro[Serebii.net, viaGoNintendo]
