If it really is Pokemon in the style of Tekken, that would be quite cool! I had hoped for a sequel to Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness, but that would be nice too.

There are enough Pokemon that I think would "work" in a fighting game a la Tekken. I quickly made a list of them.

Primeape Machamp Hitmonlee Hitmonchan Hitmontop Blaziken
Breloom Hariyama Medicham Infernape Lucario Gallade
Emboar Conkeldurr Throh Sawk Scizor Weavile
Shiftry Bisharp Garchomp Haxorus Electivire Ampharos
Charizard Magmortar Simisear Gengar Dusknoir Cofagrigus
Sceptile Roserade Tangrowth Simisage Sandslash Nidoqueen
Nidoking Golem Marowak Rhyperior Swampert Jynx
Beartic Kangaskhan Ursaring Zangoose Ambipom Garbodor
Alakazam Mr. Mime Kabutops Sudowoodo Aggron Armaldo
Excadrill Golduck Feraligatr Empoleon Floatzel Simipour
That's 60 Pokemon. Ofcourse they will never make a Tekken-like game with that many characters, but it shows that there is enough character-ammo to make this work.
Oh look at me, going too far again. /Hides

I can see it -- 16 characters on disc to start with, buy the NFC toys to unlock others.

I'm not sure the Skylanders approach would fly with the market they'd be targeting with this. This isn't exactly Pokémon Rumble. They're going to get some crossover with the FGC if the game is legit, and I don't know how they'd feel about buying figurines to unlock characters.
