Pokkén Tournament Roundup – Combo Videos, Smasher Crossover, and More

It hasn’t even been a week since Pokkén Tournament landed on store shelves worldwide, but the fighting game community is nothing if not dedicated. In these past few days, players have come together to create some incredible videos, mostly based around combos but also focusing on online replays, setups, and more. Without further ado, let’s get right into it.

First up, frequent content producer Hurtbox TV put out a handful of combo videos focused on Pokémon like Gardevoir, Lucario, and Shadow Mewtwo. As we’re still early in the game’s life, don’t expect anything too broken apart from the usual craziness these combo masters always put into their videos.


Speaking of Lucario, LordWilliam1234 also jumped in the lab with this fighter, highlighting a number of Duel Phase combos that do a great job of carrying opponents from corner to corner.

Lucario is popular! This next video focuses on a guard break setup the Pokémon is capable of after activating its Synergy Burst. TheBlackHylian has a much longer guide for Lucario coming in the near future, so stay tuned for that.

We wind down the combo videos today with a look Pokkén Tournament’s resident bruiser, Machamp. Though slow, this four-armed pocket monster packs quite a punch, as demonstrated by owkenny.

And finally, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U master TSM|ZeRo has uploaded a trio of videos showcasing his online matches against ShadyPenguinn, shofu, and Nairo.
