The Pokemon franchise took a step into brawler territory back in November 2009, when the WiiWare download Pokemon Rumble launched and let players battle the popular pocket monsters in an all-new way.
Reaction to the title was a little mixed, as it was priced at a fairly steep $15 dollars and its gameplay was repetitive. But it was certainly fun for Pokemon fans, and I myself enjoyed playing it alongside a fellow Poke-fanatic all the way through to the end...
