Aegislash and Blastoise announced

[Maelstrom 312]

as the next two playable DLC characters in Pokken Tournament DX.

 

 

Aegislash comes out this month, while blastoise comes out in march.

 

 

I gotta complain that the wiiu won't get them as dlc too, but I guess the wii u gets to continue to collect dust again. At least it had a better life than my xb1.

But I gotta love the fact that they're bringing in blastoise.

 

How do you think they're gonna play? Aegislash clearly has a stance change kit to fit different situations and opponents...

 

but how do you think blastoise is gonna play like? Lots of super armor? A ranged tank? How fast will his movements be? Will he be all bulk and no bite, or will his opponents feel it when he decides to throw his weight around? Definitely itching to find out.

Call me a scrub, but I dislike how zoning-based Pokken is imo. This pain is further amplified when you're a Machamp main (like yours truly). For this reason alone I really hope Blastoise isn't just heavy and slow Chandelure.

 

Yeah, my copy of Pokken for Wii U has been collecting dust for quite some time too with no end in sight any time soon.

I'm just sad my man Swampert didn't join the other Hoenn starters in Pokken TBH.

I wouldn't be surprised if Blastoise had a fast move like spinning on its shell though. Also his burst mode with the mega evolution could give him extra range and damage on his hydro pump/water pulse or whatever ranged attacks.

Cannons and shell aside,  Blastoise's signature move, seems to be Skull Bash, as far as nintendo is concerned. So we might see that one in action too.
