How did they fuck up so badly? What exactly went wrong?

We finally got an official Pokemon fighting game.
The characters all have a ton of charm.
The visuals are pleasing.
The music is great.
The online is very solid.
It sold very well.

And ~NOBODY~ fucking cares. Everyone was done with it after like a week and now nobody cares anymore.

It's fucking sad.

Honestly, I would rather just play any other anime fighter Namco put out and be done with it, because at least those know they're shit and shove fanservice down my throat every five seconds to make me happy and keep me playing over and over. Pokken nearly puts me to sleep with how slow and dull if feels and looks.

Isn't that true for most games? What makes fighting games so special that they need to be relevant and talked about forever?

It seems like whenever I see discussion about any fighting game on 4chan, no matter how popular, there's people complaining about how dead the game is.

I'm a huge Pokken fan, my buds and I play all the time, but Luchachu is absolute fucking cancer and the roster just got stale really fast.

I think the addition of these last four Pokémon is gonna save the game, at least among my group of friends. Darkrai is meh but Scizor got EVERYONE hype, I expect when the DLC drops we'll all get super back into it. Here's hoping the mystery last slot doesn't go to some bullshit like Greninja or Incineroar.

my big issue is the roster balance and general gameplay
-ranged characters are highly oppressive
-windows of opportunity to punish people that spam counter moves is too small
-ranged grabs are pure cancer inducing
-the 2D fight mode doesn't fit; it should be free 3D movement as it is now until a knockdown and then it swaps into classic Tekken or Soul Calibur combat where the screen moves in closer like a 2D fighter but you have the option to sidestep attacks thus shifting the camera

I like the accessibility and how combos work; the idea of two styles of combat is neat but the execution needs work to better balance between characters with ranged options and the ones without. Also Shadow Mewtwo and Lucha Pikachu were bad ideas and should honestly be removed.

I agree with all of this but your last bullet point. I really enjoy the field/duel phase aspect of Pokken and I think it works rather well. Everything else you said is what needs to change, ESPECIALLY wasting roster space on the same genwunmon twice.

I honestly think Pokken would have seen twice the sales if they simply would have put Scizor instead of Luchachu in the first place. At least Shadowtwo is mildly acceptable and even should have been expected because its a Tekken crossover.

I just wanna side-step in duel phase
there was one online match as Weavile that left an awful after-taste
I had the match won vs a Braixen player; they were pushed to the wall with 1 hit to go. And they just sat there pressing the counter-attack button; you can't jump over it, you can't be anywhere near or you get hit, I stayed outside range waited for the animation to end then used Weavile's night slash and I still got beat over and over because the counter-attack animation has basically 0 recovery frames and the attack radius is huge.
In retrospect I had options to use there that I didn't try but I still think that's a major design flaw. Also it should be more clear when your opponent is charging a counter attack or a regular attack. In Smash you can tell whenever the opponent presses a counter button, also none of the counter skills in Smash do damage unless you attack first.

The best bet is to take what they have and rework it and expand the roster then release Pokken 2 on the Switch or something. Give me Decidueye flipping and trickshotting the shit out of stuff and fucking Hawlucha and Hitmontop god damn it.

Maybe the game would be fun if there were tons of characters, but this dozen or so, it gets old very quickly. The gameplay doesn't hold up enough to continue having fun after 30 minutes

This isn't true. They shipped 1.4 mil copies. They have only sold about 100k

If they retconned the fucking Pikachu and replaced her with Hawlucha and actually made the new characters playable on Wii U I'd care about this game.

I hope you are right. I'd buy the DLCs in a heartbeat. But the lack of Wii U support from Nintendo really makes me pessimistic.

It failed because out of a selection of 700 fucking Pokemon they chose to have 2 Mewtwos and 2 Pikachus on a 14 character roster.

It's actually forgotten because the gameplay is based on who ults first

Basically they had no reason not to fill this game to the top with fanservice. It feels like we got 30% of what we should've gotten.

It's like half of this thread never played a fighting game series in their lifes.
Rosters grow in number with each new sequel. None of the biggest fighting game series started with a fuckhuge roster. Not Tekken, not Street Fighter, not Guilty Gear, no one.
Pokken got a small roster because its sequels will add more, it's not ricket science. And yes, sequels also bring new gameplay mechanics and, hopefully, fixes.

Ok I'm gonna post my ideal roster. My basis to appease everyone is:
-1 Starter per gen
-At least 1 fighting type per gen
-1 fan favorite per gen
-1 obscure choice per gen
-No legends

I'm going with 5 per gen, including Gen 7 because the dex was leaked and why not. Every first choice is starter, every last is the obscure, and the fan favorite should be obvious.

Kanto:
>Charizard
>Hitmonlee
>Hitmonchan
>Pikachu
>Hypno

Johto:
>Feraligatr
>Scizor
>Hitmontop
>Tyranitar
>Granbull

Hoenn:
>Sceptile
>Hariyama
>Medicham
>Blaziken (starter, yes, but fan favorite)
>Ludicolo

Sinnoh:
>Empoleon
>Toxicroak
>Lucario
>Drapion
>Bronzong

Unova:
>Serperior
>Sawk
>Throh
>Zoroark
>Lampent

Kalos:
>Greninja
>Hawlucha
>Sylveon
>Pancham
>Doublade

Alola:
>Incineroar
>Crabrawler Evo
>Wimpod Evo (expecting him to be a fan fav just based on its design)
>Hakamo-o
>Mimikyu

WiiU.

Game is a bit too barebones.

Casuals, which make up the vast majority of the audience, wanted a fanservice fighter, but got something closer to a real fighter.

This might be the worst fan roster I've ever seen. I'm really glad these games aren't designed by /vp/ contrarians.

Protip: oddball/"non-obvious" roster choices =/= filling half the roster with shit nobody cares about. It means Pokemon like Chandelure, AKA the most popular Gen 5 Pokemon in Japan.
