you know where to look, it's from Famitsu, he comes out in August.

Kinda weird that they hold him up until now when we know he's in since Pokken's tease and stuff, but oh well. Like the other mons he got some nice detail updates, like musculature detail on his arms.

There's a thread for the anticipated launch stream here.

Edit: TRAILER

 

[sixteen-bit]

I also assumed Blaziken was a lock due to that old teaser render.

 

[MissileTrick]

For real? I thought he was already confirmed. lol

 

[Caronte]

This is even more surprising than Ken.

 

[Tizoc]

That is not the chicken I am waiting to be in this game.

Spoiler

HAWLUCHA!

 

[TreIII]

Can't wait to re-enact Blaziken's utter dismantling of Charizard from the anime~!

 

[Hero of Legend]

This is even more surprising than Ken.

Blaziken.

 

[TheDanimal]

Looking forward to seeing how this game plays. When does this come out in arcades?

It's out tomorrow. Well technically later today since it's 16th now in Japan.

 

[rhandino]

My fave Fire/Fighting starter confirmed!?

 

[Trago]

I assure you all that no one saw this coming.

 

[Glass Rebel]

literally out of nowhere /s

That is not the chicken I am waiting to be in this game.

HAWLUCHA!

My man

 

[TheDanimal]

... I guess I should have figured that out since the OP says "launch stream." Whoops, I didn't even think of that. Thanks!

 

[oti]

Still waiting for Enton.

 

[Caronte]

Blaziken.

 

[ash_ag]

Now all we need is the stage from the teaser.

 

[Kouriozan]

Still nice to have confirmation.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh wait, apparently it's not a scan but a magazine spread online? This doesn't seem like a scan to me due to it's quality but rather the "teaser" pages they always do.

Inform me if it's a scan then I'll remove it.

EDIT: removed, it's an online edition

 

[Son Of D]

Blaziken.

Blaze Kick, Sky Uppercut, Ember/Flame Jet/Fire Blast.

Shoto confirmed.

 

[The Bankslammer]

Inform me if it's a scan then I'll remove it.

It's from the digital edition of Famitsu, and it's part of the magazine itself. Probably better off being taken down.

Ah so it's not their teaser pages? All right, taken down. Dat Blaziken model though...

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Blaziken.

 

[Nori Chan]

Best Pokemon starter ever. Even in general

Come at me pokenerds.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Blaziken.

Flowchart confirmed.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Best Pokemon starter ever. Even in general

Come at me pokenerds.

you tried tho and that's all that counts

 

[phanphare]

does this game have mega evolutions? Mega Blaziken would be bad fucking ass.

 

[rhandino]

This is even more surprising than Ken.

Blaziken.

Flowchart confirmed.

Yes, or at least I saw Lucario transforming in Mega Lucario in the first trailer... I'm kind of on a media blackout for this game =P

 

[Aaronrules380]

Best Pokemon starter ever. Even in general

Come at me pokenerds.

Not even the best hoenn starter

 

[Boss Doggie]

does this game have mega evolutions? Mega Blaziken would be bad fucking ass.

All characters have a Burst mode, and Pokemon with mega evolutions will become mega while those without one will just have a powered up look

hell yeah! thanks

 

[Shadow Hog]

 

[Anth0ny]

shocking.


I wonder if they'll move the console port to NX at this point. It would be a pretty sweet launch game.

 

[Xion_Stellar]

So does anyone know which Pokemon they haven't "ported" over from Pokemon Type Wild yet?

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Best Pokemon starter ever. Even in general

Come at me pokenerds.

No lies detected.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Blaze Kick, Sky Uppercut, Ember/Flame Jet/Fire Blast.

Shoto confirmed.

my fucking sides

 

[Zalman]

Blaziken slides into battle!

 

[Azure Dream]

Kind of surprised there's no Lopunny so far. Humanoid build, obvious kick-based moveset, has a Mega-Evolution, etc.

 

[udivision]

Apparently he's no longer a Shoto.

The changed his costume so that it has more black too.. think it's called a Mega or w/e.

There's over 700 pokemon to choose from, how can you be surprised that this roster of <10 doesn't include one of them?

 

[Firemind]

Best Pokemon starter ever. Even in general

Come at me pokenerds.

Not even the best fire starter.

&#12541;&#3900;&#3720;&#1604;&#860;&#3720;&#3901;&#65417; Infernape or RIOT. &#12541;&#3900;&#3720;&#1604;&#860;&#3720;&#3901;&#65417;

oh my god

I was wondering when Blaziken was going to be formally announced. Not surprised whatsoever. Now we just need, like, Serperior, or something. Or Torkoal

 

[Xion_Stellar]

Kind of surprised there's no Lopunny so far. Humanoid build, obvious kick-based moveset, etc.

They still have to add Snorlax,Lopunny,Swalot, and Breelom in order for them to have fully imported everyone from Pokemon Type Wild.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

He was in the very first teaser for this game, why wouldn't he be in the final roster?

He's also an iconic and popular Pokemon.

 

[Wyndstryker]

Why does it look like he won't even fit through the tunnel at the end of the slide lol.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh I just noticed, Blaziken's arms don't have feather coverings unlike the rest of his body (that's why his muscles are detailed and visible). It gives the impression that Blaziken is wearing a gi.

 

[Rynocirator]

Blaziken better have the best DP in the game.

 

[ratcliffja]

That is not the chicken I am waiting to be in this game.

Spoiler

HAWLUCHA!

You mean hawk?
Edit: He should have been called Luchawk.

 

[Sterok]

Not surprising obviously. So we've got two fire starters and zero water or grass starters. I don't think there's even any grass Pokemon yet. Heh. Shows where their priorities are.

 

[udivision]

The taped arms/wrists were supposed to be feathers?
EDIT: Oh, you mean the texture.

 

[shoryukens]

Best Pokemon starter ever. Even in general

Come at me pokenerds.

Blaziken is a popular choice among fans so it's not really controversial.

You tried though.

 

[jerry1594]

Blaziken sucks. Should've been Combusken.
