After last Friday's update on the Pokemon fighting game "Pokken Tournament," several gameplay photos have surfaced online featuring additional Pokemon from the game's roster.

From these photos, fans see several gameplay photos featuring battles as well as special moves using newly introduced fighters such as Suicune, Pikachu and Gardevoir, in addition to already announced fighters like Machamp, Lucario and Blaziken.

As previously reported, support Pokemon can be summoned during battle and Mega Evolution can be activated as well.

Rather than a fighting stick, a controller was revealed with a D-Pad and BAYX button configuration. During the NicoNico stream, three modes were revealed for "Pokken Tournament," including Single Play, National battle and In-Store Battle.

Under the constant threat of the ominous Team Flare, who was after X's mysterious Mega Ring, the five young trainers must stick together and depend on each other to weather through each challenge and seek what they find, including an answer to the mystery of Mega Evolution..."
