This spring, another title in the Pokémon Rumble (Pokémon Scramble) line is coming to the Wii U download service in Japan. Like the previous title, the game will feature Pokémon toys of the existing 649 characters.

Pokémon Scramble U will not feature Gen VI (XY) Pokémon.

Ooh, looking forward to this. I really enjoyed Rumble Blast on the 3DS.

Also, in the mini-movie on the third page of the official site, at 35 seconds in, that's a lot of Eevee!

I have a feeling that Generation V might still linger for a bit until a while after VI main series games are out. Concurrent generations?

What a bad pun.

This is not enough to convince me to buy a Wii U :/

I have to admit the graphics for this game do look very good.

I'm kinda skeptical about this, mostly due to the fact that Black2 and White2 were released a while before this was a thing. It just seems like a cop-out to add in the updated Generation V stuff...

...But then again, these are just initial thoughts of mine. If it's more than just a HD Remake of Blast, and chances are, it probably will be, I MIGHT give it a try. From what I can see, all 640+ Pokemon will be available on here, just like how Blast was. However, in Blast, they were a lot less spread out, certain Pokemon being only available to certain areas, and a favorite Pokemon could end up being weaker over time. That was my only pet-peeve about Rumble Blast, and hopefully, Rumble U doesn't take the same route...
