Would Pokemon make a good brawler game?

Im not sure if theres already been a thread like this, but i couldnt find anything in search.

But anyway, Ive recently got a copy of super street fighter 4, and ive noticed alot of similarities between brawler games and the style of battling in the anime. Both involve looking for gaps in defense, dodging, and both have powerful special moves that inflict heavy damage, but leave a player wide open to attack if it misses (Super/Ultra Combo & Hyper Beam and its variants).

If someone replaced the character models in a pc version of street fighter 4 with custom pokemon models, it would actually be quite interesting. The attacks would be really similar too.

Fire Punch, Sky Uppercut - Shoryuken
Aura Sphere, Focus Blast - Hadoken
Close Combat - Various Combos
Seismic Toss - somewhat similar to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fk0BFGDIOw

There should be a mod of SSBB that only has pokemon.

What do you guys think?

Hmm.. that makes sense, but I can only see Normal and Fighting-types in there, because someone like Alakazam or Gengar would be really cheap and unfair. It seems pretty cool, but it would involve a lot of work and creativity.

I would love to see a SSB-type game with just Pokémon.

However, you should definitely check out Pokémon Type Wild.

You can see many more videos on this YT Channel.

*I'm trying to find the download link since the Official Website doesn't seem to have it. I'll edit this post with it onceI find it (unless someone else finds it and posts before I do)*

You can download the older 3.2 version here, still trying to find the latest.

i guess psychic and ghost pokemons would rely heavily on elemental attacks, or like, punches/kicks infused with psychic and ghost energy. and theyd also have an awesome teleport move like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4KJHNleBsI

I found another video with a Gardevoir using Psychic attacks

Type Wild seems like a pretty cool game with all the videos I saw

Another one with Gengar in it and some other Pokemon
