Pokkén Tournament 2 (Japanese: ポッ拳 POKKÉN TOURNAMENT 2Pokkén: Pokkén Tournament 2) is a one-on-one fighting game. The game, which is a sequel to the 2015 title Pokkén Tournament, combines gameplay elements of Bandai Namco Entertainment's Tekken series with the universe of The Pokémon Company's Pokémon series.
Pokkén Tournament 2, like its predecessor, was released internationally on a home console and in Japanese arcades. An English version of the arcade version was released in a limited number of American arcades a week prior to its console launch.
The gameplay of Pokkén Tournament 2 differs in very slight ways from its predecessor. Core mechanics from the original Pokkén Tournament are kept, though are mainly tweaked with in ways to balance the game in certain ways.
The game is essentially a traditional one-on-one fighting game. The Pokémon battles take place in two phases: the Field Phase, which has Pokémon duelling in a three-dimensional battleground; and the Duel Phase, which takes place in traditional two-dimensional battlefields.
Pokémon battle through various attacks, with special attacks activated through using different combinations of attacks and directional inputs.
A large new addition to Pokkén Tournament 2 is the addition of a second Synergy Gauge. While filling the first Synergy Gauge allows the Pokémon to activate their Synergy Burst, as in the original title, filling up both allows the Pokémon to use a special move known as a Synergy Burst ƒ. The Synergy Burst ƒ attack will always hit and KO the opponent, as filling it up takes a substantial amount of time.

Cheer Skill
Description
Standard
If the player won the previous round, the Support Pokémon that was not chosen previously will begin the round with their Support Gauge filled. If the player lost the previous round, both Support Pokémon will begin the round with their Support Gauge filled.
Synergy Focused
Regardless if you won or lost the previous round, the player's Synergy Gauge will be filled slightly. More of the Synergy Gauge is filled if the previous round was lost than if it was won.
Pressure Focused
In the third round, the player's Synergy Gauge will be filled by a massive amount regardless if they won or lost the previous round. More of the Synergy Gauge will be filled if the previous round was lost than if it was won.
Support Focused
From the second round, both of the player's Support Pokémon will begin the round with a full Support Gauge.
Special
The effect changes depending if the player lost or won the previous round. If the player lost it, both Support Pokémon will have their Support Gauges maxed out at the beginning of the round. If they won it, their Synergy Gauge will see an increase.
Whimsical
The effect is completely random. The Synergy Gauge can see a boost, or one or both of the Support Pokémon can see their Support Gauges filled at the beginning of the round. This is a gamble however, as there is a chance that nothing will happen.
Customization[]
Titles[]
Titles can be seen as a sort of achievement system included within Pokkén Tournament 2. Players can apply Titles to their trainer card to brag about their achievements to other players online. Players can earn Titles by completing certain objectives, or through the Lucky Bonuses after battles. While its predecessor also allowed the player to unlock exclusive Titles through scanning amiibo, Pokkén Tournament 2 does not have as many exclusive Titles.
All 299 Titles from the previous title appear in the game, alongside 101 new ones.

Story[]
The game is set six years after the events of Pokkén Tournament. The former champion of the Ferrum League and their friend/guide Nia assisted in restarting the Ferrum League after Shadow Mewtwo's attack on the region. After setting up the Ferrum Elite, they left the region, moving on to find an even greater challenge. The plot primarily revolves around the introduction of Fighter Pokémon that have yet to be approved by the Ferrum League for official Ferrum Battles.
Ferrum League[]
Following the events of the previous game, the Ferrum League underwent a major restructuring in its battle structure. There are now two Ferrum Leagues, the original ("Ferrum League") and the new "Ferrum Elite".
The Ferrum League is open to Battle Trainers from all across the Ferrum Region. It is broken up into four leagues: Green League, Blue League, Red League, and Chroma League. Green League has a pool of 100 Trainers, and making it into the top 10 grants access to the Red Tournament. Blue League has a pool of 80, Red League has 40, and Chroma has 25. To be granted access to the Blue, Red, and Chroma Tournaments, the player must rank up to at least Rank 8. After defeating any of the Green, Blue, Red, Chroma, Yellow, Iron, Silver, Gold, and Crystal Leagues, the player is able to rematch the leagues at any time, as well as the league's champions.
The Ferrum Elite is open to the Battle Trainers that have ranked to at least Rank 10 in the Chroma League. Ferrum Elite consists of four leagues in itself, though these are slightly different in that they consist each of only a single match, though these matches are longer (a Trainer must win six rounds instead of just two), and may have several gimmicks attached to it.
The Ferrum Elite takes the place of the Elite Four that other regions have, and adapts the idea to the Battle AR setup. As such, there is no designated "Champion" as with other regions' Elite Four groups, instead the title of "Champion" is given to anyone that can defeat the four Ferrum Elites, as well as the Elite of the Crystal League, Anne.
Ferrum World Tournament[]
The player is able to enter the Ferrum World Tournament. The Ferrum World Tournament contains trainers from all over competing in Ferrum Battles, as a chance to connect with their Pokémon in ways they couldn't before. There are seventeen entrants into the Ferrum World Tournament, with each entrant returning from a previous Pokémon title. Their Pokémon are much stronger than any Pokémon fought in the Ferrum League or Ferrum Elite. Additionally, all Ferrum World Tournament entrants have unique Titles that can not be earned by the player.

Fighter Pokémon[]
There will be a total of 66 Fighter Pokémon in the base of Pokkén Tournament 2, more than doubling the roster of its predecessor. Pokémon that are capable of Mega Evolution will Mega Evolve upon activating Synergy Burst. Similarly, other Pokémon that have multiple forms may change under similar circumstances: Greninja transforming into Ash-Greninja, Meloetta transforming from its Aria Forme to its Pirouette Forme, and Lunala entering Full Moon Phase.
In the base game, there are 18 Power fighters, 14 Speed fighters, 17 Technical fighters, and 17 Standard fighters. 13 of these Pokémon came from Generation I (13 counting Shadow Mewtwo), 7 from Generation II, 8 from Generation III, 10 from Generation IV, 9 from Generation V, 8 from Generation VI, and 10 from Generation VII.
Five Fighter Pokémon were added exclusively to the Nintendo Switch version of the game via paid downloadable content after the game's initial launch. Each Fighter Pokémon came with a pair of Support Pokémon in a pack.
Charizard is a powerful Fire/Flying-type Pokémon and the final evolution of Charmander, one of the Kanto Starter Pokémon. Charizard is a slower, heavier fighter, who will often propel himself forwards with his wings to body slam his opponent. Being a Fire-type Pokémon, Charizard has a variety of different fire-based attacks, such as Flamethrower, the counter Fire Punch, and the grab attack Seismic Toss. Upon activating Synergy Burst, Charizard will transform into Mega Charizard X and gain the ability to use Searing Blaze, which Charizard can perform even while in the air. His Synergy Burst ƒ attack has him use Earthquake, trapping his opponent in the ground, before destroying them with a Fire Spin. By default, Charizard has 600 hit points.
Beedrill is a Bug/Poison-type Pokémon and the final evolution of Weedle. Despite having a big frame, Beedrill is a very fast and powerful fighter, using its two large stingers as if both are swords. Because of this, Beedrill's attacks have better range than most other physical attacks. While up-close Beedrill uses attacks akin to Poison Jab, Assurance, Beedrill has a limited number of powerful ranged attacks, only utiziling Fury Attack to fire conical projectiles that travel slower than most of their kind. Beedrill will Mega Evolve upon the activation of his Synergy Burst, and attack his foe using Fell Stinger, which is unique in that it will increase his stats in the next round should it KO his opponent; though it is harder to hit with its limited range. Beedrill's Synergy Burst ƒ attack has him use Twineedle, firing two large needles to pin his opponent to the ground, before defeating them with Giga Impact.
Pikachu is the Electric-type mascot of the Pokémon franchise. Pikachu is a smaller and faster fighter, though his stats are fairly balanced over the board. Pikachu is ideal for new players of the game, as he has a variety of different projectile and physical attacks in his moveset. Pikachu's projectile attacks include Electro Ball and Thunderbolt, while he can also use Iron Tail and Volt Tackle to deal damage up close. Pikachu's Nuzzle attack can break through blocks and shields. Upon activating Synergy Burst, Pikachu can use the Volt Shock Fist, which pierces through counterattacks. Synergy Burst ƒ allows him to use Wild Charge, which has him fire electricity in every direction to trap his foe before charging in and defeating his opponent. Pikachu has 570 hit points by default.
Pikachu Libre is a special version of Pikachu that can be obtained in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Though not an Electric/Fighting-type Pokémon like one would expect, her moveset varies greatly from Pikachu's, with more physical attacks than projectiles. One of Pikachu Libre's most deadly attacks is Double Team, in which she travels backwards at a high speed before performing a fast flying kick. Pikachu Libre's Synergy Burst attack is Thunderclap Press, where she dive bombs on her opponent after dropping them into a ring. For her Synergy Burst ƒ attack, Pikachu Libre uses Meteor Mash, viciously attacking her opponent with a series of powerful kicks, punches, and tail whips. Like Pikachu, Pikachu Libre has 570 hit points by default.
Machamp is a powerful four-armed Fighting-type Pokémon. With his four arms, he specializes in powerful punches and body slams, utilizing his upper half to primarily dish out damage. Using Bulk Up, some of Machamp's attacks can gain added effects for a single use. Because Machamp is such a powerful fighter at close range, Machamp does not have a projectile attack, and as such can be easily defeated if distance is kept from him. After activating Synergy Burst, Machamp can use Dynamic Fury, an attack that pierces through counterattacks and deals more damage the closer Machamp is to his opponent when the attack is activated. Once Synergy Burst ƒ is achieved, Machamp uses Power-Up Punch to quickly defeat his opponent with a single punch enhanced with energy. Machamp has 660 hit points by default.
Gengar is a Ghost/Poison-type Pokémon. The final evolution of Gastly, Gengar can also Mega Evolve into Mega Gengar. Gengar is a slower Fighter Pokémon, though his attacks have quite the range, as he can summon large fists from portals, and throw balls of dark energy. Gengar can easily dodge attacks that hit higher up on a fighter, as he sinks into the ground a little bit. Upon activating Synergy Burst and Mega Evolving, Gengar becomes a more powerful fighter. Some of his attacks can combo into Shadow Sneak, becoming invincible while travelling around. During this time, Gengar can use Shadow Drop, grabbing his opponent before trapping them within an illusion and eating them. Once Synergy Burst ƒ is achieved, Gengar can use Dark Pulse to flood the arena with a dark energy that swallows up and eats his opponent. Gengar has 510 hit points by default.
Zygarde is a Dragon/Ground-type Legendary Pokémon. Zygarde is a technical Fighter Pokémon, and perhaps the most difficult to master, as Zygarde switches between its 10% and 50% Formes depending on the amount of health it currently has. At full health, Zygarde takes its 50% Forme, being slower but powerful with its attacks. Counteractively, after losing half of its health, Zygarde will transform into its 10% Forme, making it faster but heavily decreasing the amount of damage its attacks deal. Once Synergy Burst is activated, Zygarde collects all its cells to become its Complete Forme, becoming incredibly slow but much more powerful, and can use the Thousand Arrows attack to deal its opponent should it be close enough, even should they be in the air. Once Synergy Burst ƒ is activated, it can use Land's Wrath to create a fissure that instantly KO's its opponent. Zygarde has 510 hit points by default.
A total of 60 Support Pokémon appear in Pokkén Tournament 2. Pokémon are paired up into twos, and a player may only take one duo into battle at a time, switching between which of these Pokémon they will summon.

Final logo
The Pokkén Tournament logo, which was used as a placeholder
The game was originally announced under the name of Pokkén Tournament, and was initially stated to be a simple port of the original game to the Nintendo Switch.
According to unfinished data in the game's code:
An erupting variation of Phos Volcano was originally to appear as a stage.
The ability to have a third Synergy Burst gauge was planned to appear in the game.
Gladion and Wally were to appear in the Ferrum World Tournament, as they have character portraits.
Aipom, Qwilfish, and Lycanroc (Midnight Form) were to appear in some capacity, as they have models that go unused in the final game.
The Ferrum World Tournament makes a number of nods to other Pokémon media besides video games.
One of Blue's Support Pokémon is Umbreon, referencing how Gary Oak - his counterpart in the anime series - has an Umbreon.
Leaf's Fighter Pokémon is Wigglytuff, a Pokémon that her counterpart in the Pokémon Adventures manga, Green, owns. Additionally, the fact that one of her Support Pokémon is Ditto further references this; another one of Green's Pokémon is Ditty, a Ditto.
While all Pokémon have alternate, Shiny colourations in the mainstream Pokémon titles, very few of the Fighter Pokémon use these alternate colours in mirror matches. The only Pokémon that do are Blastoise, Deoxys, Scizor, Lombre, Aegislash, Heliolisk, Zygarde, Decidueye, Hakamo-o, Mudsdale, and Salazzle. Granbull's appearance in mirror matches is also based on its Shiny sprite from the Generation II titles Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, though later games would lighten the coloration.
Sawk's alternate appearance in mirror matches is based off the colour scheme of Throh.
Machamp's mirror match design takes design cues from the Marvel comics superhero The Incredible Hulk. Both are large muscular humanoids with green skin and purple garments.
Kabutop's alternate costume slightly resembles the appearance of Sonic the Hedgehog.
Tsareena's mirror match design is an intentional reference to the colour scheme of Celestia Ludenberg, a character from the Danganronpa series.
A number of Pokémon take some design cues from their Shiny colour schemes for their mirror match designs.
Pikachu's alternate costume, while not identical, seems to take inspiration from its Shiny coloration.
Gligar's wings are a bright blue colour, just like its Shiny colour scheme. A Shiny Gligar has a grey body instead of the white one that Gligar does in mirror matches, however.
Crabrawler's claws, stripes, and right eye are all coloured the same as its Shiny counterpart.
Chandelure's fire is an orange colour. While not as brightly coloured as its Shiny coloration, the similarity remains.
Lunala's wings and skeleton take a red and purple colour scheme, though the shades of each are slightly different.
Smeragle's alternate costume is nearly identical to his Shiny colour scheme, with the only change being that Smeargle has red accents as opposed to brown ones.
Absol's accents are of a red colour, similar to the colour on a Shiny Absol.
