Strange Pokkén Glitch Allows Charizard & Gardevoir to Instant Air Recover Braixen’s Air Fireball on Hit

Pokkén player Shadowcat recently discovered a strange bug for Pokkén Tournament that may negatively impact one of the game’s current top tiers. Braixen’s j.Y, a screen-munching series of air fireballs, is one of the game’s more notorious zoning tools. However, for one reason or another, Charizard and Gardevoir can take a hit from it, then cancel the air recovery into air actions. This can actually have a decent impact on these matches, considering both characters have fairly strong air options.

It’s currently unknown if the glitch exists outside of the console version. Since Braixen’s j.Y is already being nerfed with longer landing recovery in 1.5, it would be pretty interesting to see if one of these characters could intentionally take a hit only to punish Braixen’s landing lag. In fact, if the move is still bugged in 1.5’s release, it’s possible some of the new console-only characters can take advantage of this, too.
