The Ferrum League acts as the story mode for Pokkén Tournament and Pokkén Tournament DX. It is separated into 4 divisions, Green, Blue, Red and Chroma, with a combined total of 300 unique NPC players. In this mode, the player must fight their way up to the top 8 to enter tournaments, and win matches to make their way to number 1 in the rankings of a league. Then, they must pass the Promotion Test - if they do, their rank will increase and they will be granted permission to enter the next league. Leagues will not close to the player when they complete promotion, allowing them to complete mission boards and face more NPC players they have not encountered.
Story[]
As the player moves up the Ferrum League they will encounter Shadow Mewtwo, a dark, corrupted version of Mewtwo and a mysterious girl. As the story goes on, the player will the learn the identity of the mysterious girl: Anne. Anne informs the player that Mewtwo had been corrupted by the Dark Synergy Stone, in a effort to save Anne. Anne needs the help of the player to release Mewtwo from his corruption. After traveling through the unknown areas of Ferrum and passing some test, the player confronts Shadow Mewtwo for the last time. The player eventually wins the battle and frees Mewtwo. After the player frees Mewtwo, the player takes on the Chroma League and eventually wins, becoming the Champion of Ferrum.
Gameplay[]
There are five different game modes the player can choose from:
- League Match: Initially the only mode available, this is where players begin their journey to the top of the league by battling other league participants in a set of five matches. When five matches are completed, players are assigned a new rank based on their performance and returned to the Ferrum League menu. The player can also drop out of League Matches, but they will not gain any new ranking points.
- Tournament: When players make it into the top eight, they are allowed to enter the bracketed tournament where the winner becomes Ferrum League Champion. This is locked until a player is in the Top 8.
- Promotion Test: Once a player is Champion of a division in the Ferrum League, it's possible to participate in a battle against the League Master. Winning this battle gains access to the next league. This is locked until the player becomes Champion of its respective League.
- Free Battle: - Players may battle in matches against league participants. Battles are against a random member of the respective League.
- Mission Panels: - In Pokkén Tournament DX, there is a new mission panel board for its respective League. Rewards such as galleries and avatar items can be obtained by unlocking the requirements.
