《寶可拳DX》（英文名：Pokkén Tournament DX，日文名：ポッ拳 DX）是由萬代南夢宮開發、寶可夢公司與任天堂發行的3D對戰格鬥遊戲，於2017年9月在Switch平台推出。是Wii U版《寶可拳》的加強與完整版本，加入更多角色、新模式與改良的操作體驗，進一步拓展這款結合寶可夢世界與格鬥遊戲元素的作品。

劇情方面，依然設定在「堅鐵地區」（Ferrum Region），玩家作為新進訓練家參與Ferrum League聯賽，與搭檔寶可夢一同挑戰各級別對手，目標是稱霸整個聯盟。在冒險的過程中，會逐步解開傳說中的黑暗超夢（Shadow Mewtwo）的秘密，其神秘力量對整個地區造成威脅，成為劇情中最關鍵的轉折點。雖然劇情簡單，但透過角色對話與動畫插曲交織出一段獨特的寶可夢冒險故事。

操作方面戲秉持「易學難精」的設計理念，讓初學者也能快速上手，同時保有深度供進階玩家鑽研。可以選擇使用Joy-Con、Pro控制器或掌機模式進行遊玩。戰鬥採用雙階段系統─「場地相位」（Field Phase）與「對戰相位」（Duel Phase）之間的動態轉換是遊戲的核心特色，可在3D自由移動與2D橫向對戰間切換。每隻寶可夢擁有獨特的攻擊招式、投技、防禦與特殊技能，搭配「共鳴爆發」（Synergy Burst）可以釋放極具視覺效果的終極爆發技。此外，還可以搭配支援寶可夢進行戰術輔助，使對戰策略性大大提升。

相較Wii U版本，《DX》新增五位可操作角色， Decidueye、Scizor、Darkrai、Croagunk、Empoleon，大幅提升可玩性與對戰多樣性。同時，支援寶可夢也有所擴充，使整體組合策略更豐富。遊戲模式方面，《DX》新增「每日挑戰」、「3對3團體對戰」與「回放觀賞」等功能，也改善UI與線上對戰系統，提升整體使用體驗。每日挑戰會隨機指定特定角色與條件供玩家挑戰，完成後可獲得道具與稱號；團體戰模式則強調隊伍編成與輪替，為對戰加入新變化。

關卡設計部分，保留原作多樣化的場地，從充滿高科技感的實驗室、海邊碼頭、古老神殿到火山遺跡，各個場地在視覺風格與背景設定上都別具特色。雖然每個場地對戰時的機制基本相同，但其視覺呈現與音效氛圍為遊戲增添不少臨場感與代入感，讓每場戰鬥都不顯單調。

就市場表現來看，《寶可拳DX》推出後獲得玩家與媒體的普遍好評。Metacritic上平均評分為79分，評論普遍讚揚其畫面精緻、角色多樣且操作流暢，特別是在Switch平台上的攜帶與本地連線機能，讓對戰遊戲更具彈性與親和力。許多評論也指出，《DX》是名副其實的終極版，將Wii U原版的內容全面強化後，展現出系列的最大潛力。不過也有聲音指出，遊戲核心內容與原版相比沒有太大突破，對於已玩過Wii U版的玩家來說，或許缺乏新鮮感。

銷售方面，《寶可拳DX》在全球表現亮眼，推出首週即登上日本與歐美Switch遊戲銷售榜前列，截至2021年全球總銷量已突破150萬套，成為Switch平台上最成功的格鬥遊戲之一，也為寶可夢品牌開闢出新的戰鬥遊戲支線。

Pokkén Tournament DX (Japanese title: ポッ拳 DX) is a 3D fighting game developed by Bandai Namco and published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo. Released in September 2017 for the Nintendo Switch, it is an enhanced and complete version of the Wii U title Pokkén Tournament. This updated edition expands upon the original by adding new characters, additional game modes, and refined gameplay mechanics, further enriching the fusion of the Pokémon universe with traditional fighting game elements.

The story remains set in the fictional Ferrum Region, where the player takes on the role of a new Pokémon Trainer entering the Ferrum League. Alongside their partner Pokémon, players challenge opponents across various ranks with the ultimate goal of becoming the league champion. Throughout the campaign, players gradually uncover the mystery behind the legendary Pokémon Shadow Mewtwo, whose dark powers pose a threat to the region, becoming a major turning point in the narrative. While the storyline is relatively simple, it is brought to life through character interactions and cinematic cutscenes that add a unique Pokémon-flavored twist to the fighting game genre.

In terms of gameplay, Pokkén Tournament DX follows the “easy to learn, hard to master” philosophy. It is accessible to newcomers while still offering depth for more experienced players. The game supports various control methods, including Joy-Cons, the Pro Controller, or handheld mode. A signature feature is its dual-phase battle system, which dynamically shifts between Field Phase (a 3D free-roaming view) and Duel Phase (a 2D traditional fighting mode), adding a layer of strategy and pacing unique to the game. Each playable Pokémon has its own set of attacks, throws, defensive moves, and signature abilities. Players can also activate Synergy Burst, a powerful transformation that allows for visually stunning and devastating special attacks. Additionally, support Pokémon can be summoned mid-battle to provide tactical assistance, further enhancing strategic play.

Compared to the Wii U version, DX introduces five new playable characters—Decidueye, Scizor, Darkrai, Croagunk, and Empoleon—greatly increasing variety and playability. The roster of support Pokémon has also been expanded, providing more strategic combinations. Several new gameplay features have been added, including Daily Challenges, 3-on-3 Team Battles, and a Replay Viewer, while improvements to the user interface and online matchmaking significantly enhance the overall user experience. Daily Challenges assign random characters and conditions to complete for rewards, while team battles emphasize lineup strategies and rotation, introducing a fresh dynamic to the fighting formula.

Stage design preserves the diverse environments of the original game, ranging from high-tech labs and seaside docks to ancient temples and volcanic ruins. Each stage offers distinctive visual aesthetics and atmospheric audio design that elevate the immersive experience. Although the core mechanics remain consistent across all stages, the presentation and feel of each arena help ensure that no two battles feel exactly alike.

In terms of reception, Pokkén Tournament DX received generally positive reviews from both players and critics. On Metacritic, the game holds an average score of 79. Reviewers praised the game’s polished visuals, fluid gameplay, and diverse character roster. The portability and local multiplayer functionality of the Switch were also highlighted as major advantages, making the title more accessible and versatile. Many critics described DX as the definitive edition of the game, building upon the Wii U version’s foundations and realizing the concept’s full potential. However, some pointed out that the core gameplay did not evolve significantly from the original, possibly offering limited appeal for those who already played the Wii U version extensively.

Commercially, Pokkén Tournament DX performed well. In its first week, it charted highly in Japan, North America, and Europe. As of 2021, the game had sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide, making it one of the most successful fighting games on the Switch and securing its place as a standout spin-off in the Pokémon franchise. The game not only broadened the reach of the Pokémon brand into competitive fighting circles but also demonstrated how traditional fighting mechanics could successfully blend with the world of Pokémon.
