>Next week, Bandai Namco will be pulling back the curtain of another fighter on the way to Pokken Tournament. The announcement – which will likely come with a trailer – will be made on January 15. Only one clue has been shared: the Japanese name of the Pokemon has a letter ラ (ra) in it.

>50 staff members attempted to predict the Pokemon and their reactions were polled after knowing the result. Here are the results of that:

>– My prediction is correct! I’m really happy! – 1
>– My prediction missed, but I’m still glad – 13
>– My prediction missed, I’m salty – 31
>– I’m actually perplexed, so I can’t answer – 5

Anyone else find it fishy they post this? I guess they want to make sure people not to expect the expected.
>>
>>24970430
What if the people who were salty were salty because they didn't want another Hoenn starter? Is Swampert even popular in Japan?
>>
>>24970473

The only "popular" Hoenn starter is Blaziken

Sceptile and Swampert are about even

Yes, that means it's possibly Luvdisc!
>>
>>24970430
I honestly don't think it's going to be Swampert. It would be really unfair to fans of the other generations' starters. I mean, Hoenn being the only generation to have all three of its starters playable? That would scream bias.
>>
>>24970430
It's Flygon.

With a Mega Evolution being announced in Corocoro as part of the Volcanion Movie Promotion but Bandai Namco is going to want to ride on that hype too so they're going to make the character Flygon with Mega Flygon for Burst Mode.

>>24971070
I understand this feel. It sucks that when we discuss unrepresented types that shit like Lucario blocks off Steel type, or Gengar blocks off Poison type. I want real reps for those types, not obvious secondary types that don't matter for gameplay purposes.

but in the other guy's defense, at least Charizard flies in the game. Everyone in the world associates Charizard with Fire primarily, but at least his flying type matters.
>>
Considering Sceptile and Blaziken, Swampert is incredibly likely.
Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, or Hitmontop are likely, in that order
Sableye, Heracross, Kangaskhan, and Tyranitar are also likely.

In order, I'd say Swampert is most likely, Hitmonchan is second, Hitmonlee is third, and Tyranitar is probably fourth, in terms of likeliness.

There is a weird chance that Swampert isn't it, since I would assume it would be the most-guessed Pokemon, but most people didn't guess right.

>>24971347
As long as it isn't Swampert I'll be happy. Literally the only reason people want him now is to complete the Hoenn starter trio. Well fuck you all. Why should the developers give a shit about arbitrary patterns? I suppose Entei and Raikou should be in because Suicune is? I suppose the other Cosplay Pikachus should be in because Pikachu-Libre is? Face it. Swampert has NOTHING going for him. He is an irrelevant shitmon who has had almost no screen time at all in the anime. Deal with it.
>>
>>24970430
There is no way it's not Swampert because there is no way they are gonna include both Blaziken AND Sceptile and not include Swampert.

>>24971358
Sounds like you just have some irrational hate for based Swampert. I was originally gonna be disappointed if it wasn't some unexpected mon, but now I want Swampert just to spite you.

Sceptile and Pika-Libre are also Speed characters.

Standard: Lucario, Pikachu, Suicune, Blaziken (and Shadow Mewtwo is probably Standard too)
Power: Machamp, Charizard
Technique: Gardevoir,Gengar
Speed: Weavile, Pikachu Libre, Sceptile

It's Power and Technique that need more characters.

Sceptile is marketed more than Swampert. The only reason Swampert is more popular is because everyone hates Grass-types.

This. If we get Swampert instead of something actually cool like Tyranitar or Tyrantrum, I will be pissed.

>>24971016
>Kangaskhan
Her Mega Evolution would introduce some interesting tag team stuff.

>Hitmontop
Unlike the other Hitmons, Top represents a fighting style that won't be too similar to Machamp's punches and Blaziken's kicks. That fighting style also gets represented in Tekken, so the team knows what they're doing.

>Heracross
Bug types aren't represented in the game yet, and Heracross is fucking perfect for the job if they don't put Scyther, Scizor, or Genesect in the game. Its Mega Evolution is also meant to be mecha-like so the kids will love it.

>Swampert
To round the Hoenn starters out. That would be disappointing to many, but Swampert just so happens to be my favorite Pokemon so it works for me!

>Rampardos/Tyrantrum
A T-Rex would be rad.

>Landorus
There are other great Gen 5 legendaries they could choose like Genesect or Meloetta, but I can see Landorus' other form as a reason why it might be chosen over the others.

You forgot Tyranitar. I feel like he's got at least as much of a shot as the others on that list, being rather popular and having a Mega.

That said, Heracross is my most wanted, but I'd be totally fine with Swampert or Hitmontop.

Just fucking kill me if they put in Landorus. All these landwhales in the thread like "huehuehue delicious tears huehue epic shitstorm" Jesus Christ I just want a decent roster for what might be the last playable Pokémon game. Vote for Trump if you're meme-thirsty.

Suicune isn't really weird other than being a quadruped. It was the mascot of Crystal, and it has those ribbon things to make up for its lack of arms.

Aside from that, it's a pretty standard beam spammer.
>>
I somehow find it weird we still don't have Greninja in the rooster.
>>
>>24975074

Suicune is in because they wanted a quadraped that could attack with anything other than kicks and head butts

Venasaur isn't in because you had to make Vine Whip happen, whereas Suicune has the ribbons naturally

Though I do like Flygon and was rooting for it to get a Mega Evolution in ORAS, it isn't one of my favorites, and it not getting a Mega Evolution didn't bother me. It just would have been a nice thing to have.

But say what you want. From a marketing perspective, you can guarantee a Mega Flygon, at this point, could almost drive sales on it's own.

>>24976540
It doesn't make sense. If Greninja is that popular, anouncing it first would make sure the game would have a lot of sales, especially due to the anime.

If Swampert was released and the hint suggested Sceptile, then your argument would be valid.

But Swampert belongs in a fighting game as the Potemkin-class character more than Sceptile, and Sceptile is one of my favorite 'mons.

I want Kingler, but I think it's going to be Swampert.

However, based on what the workers said about how they had the wrong guess, is Swampert what they were all guessing or were they thinking of another pokemon?

Because if that's the case, then who would be the underdog here?

I think we can all agree that based on what has been given thus far and current trends, Swampert is the best guess for the next pokemon. Whether we want it or not, it makes the most sense based on what we know.

That being said, this poll thing makes me think that it could be any one of the blue pokemon.

Except there is one Pokemon I think people might be overlooking that has an interesting fighting style.

Malamar.

It's a physical fighter and would have many slashing moves. It could also have a bunch of status moves where it could blind the opponent or fuck with it.

I think people are also discounting the possibility of one of the hitmons, perhaps Hitmontop. A unique fighting style and fits the blue of the release image.

But again, in all likelihood, Swampert makes the most sense for the next pick. I won't be upset if it isn't, but most signs point to it being Swampert.

>>24979822
Fuck off. There is nothing that says they have to put in Swampert. Completing the Hoenn trio is unnecessary, just like how it was unnecessary to have a Grass-type in Smash to complete the starter type trio. Suicune already fulfills the quadruped Water-type quota. Swampert is unnecessary.

>>24980320
Swampert fits as a fighter design wise and would be the first Ground type in the game. Plus the ORAS shilling train didn't stop yet. This is why we've got Pikachu Libre instead of Hawlucha. This is also why we've got Sceptile recently, and why we will get Swampert next week to complete the trio.

Whatever Smash had/did is irrelevant, it was made by another developer

>>24980648
You forgot to put Raichu and Flygon in the NEVER EVER tier.

Also it's gonna be Hitmontop, Heracross or Swampert. There are no other options.
>>
>>24980677
the actual motions that the pokemon don't matter at all. the visual representation of a punch could easily be animated to be a tail slap or something. gyarados is insanely popular. minccino is an unevolved pokemon that nobody really cares about. they are never going to a NFE pokemon in other than pikachu.

>>24980714

I'd say Kangaskhan, Jynx, Landorus and Terrakion are more likely at this point than Swampert or Heracross especially based on poll results.
And Heracross is a background mon so likely not gonna be playable.
>>
>>24980720

>>24971632
I'd be cool with the Eddie Gordo of pokemon, but just like a lot of people here I fear it will be swampert, and >>24971586 makes a good point that there are few powerhouses and swampert would definitely fit that roll too.
>>
>>24980746
it's tail could drag along the ground. it's really not that big of a stretch. there are lots of unconvential characters in fighting games. the tekken crew especially like to put in weird characters that break the mold (dr. b, gon, etc.)
>>
>>24980754
I don't think Swampert is a shoe-in like other people believe. Why would only one person out of fifty get their prediction right when we already have Sceptile and Blaziken so Swampert would make sense?
>>
>10% is left speechless
>Around 60% is salty and had it wrong
>Around 25% had it wrong and thought it was pretty cool
>Only one out of 50 had it right.

It's gotta be something that you wouldn't see coming, so I'm guess a pokemon that's not really popular per se.

Swampert would make sense and wouldn't leave people speechless or salty. Also more than 1 out of 50 would've guessed it. It can't be Swampert.

Narrowing it down it's gotta be Jynx, Terrakion or Landorus.

Other possibilities are Kangaskhan, Hitmontop, or Tyrantrum but I don't think they would cause those reactions.

They're going pretty all out on Megas in this game, so my guess is that they're waiting until Greninja gets an actual mega that they can implement. It's either that or they'll make him the final reveal; maybe to hype up the console release, considering he's been one of the most requested characters since the poll that gave us Gengar.

The question is not if he'll be included in the game. The question is WHEN will he be added?
>>
>>24982854
Because " cool concept" is pretty subjectif on it's on

>>24982854
so Jynx then? Or another 'wildcard' such as Raticate or Granbul.

Or a random mon such as Heatmor, Carracosta, Rampardos, Maractus or Malamar, none of which are known to be extremely popular.

I think people would not be salty about Hitmontop and Kangaskhan either. Hitmontop makes sense in a 'fighting game' and Aggron, Tyranitar, Kangaskhan, Reuniclus, Florges, Gliscor and Tyrantrum are popular. Same goes for Terrakion and Darkrai, they're legendaries and you'd think people would be cool with that.

That being said I still think Landorus is likely.

I actually think that the anon with the question mark color theory might be right.

With Sceptile the question mark was radiating a green color indicating a Grass type.

This time it's radiating a blue color indicating a Water, Ice or Flying as a primary type.

Pattern fagging is stupid lad. For example, I could say that based on the last guess only mons that have " ra" as the last part of their names have a chance, because jukain has it and up until now it has happened a 100% of the time. Based on that chadelure is kinda confirmed too
