English trademarks for "Pokkén Fighters" and "Pokkén Tournament" have been uncovered, as has the Japanese trademark 「ポッ拳」 Pokkén. It is currently unknown exactly what these trademarks are for, although the Japanese trademark was filed in video game-related categories.

The English trademarks were filed by The Pokémon Company International. The Japanese trademark was filed under a personal name on Oct. 10, 2012.

「ポッ拳」 Pokkén is derived from "Poké" and 「拳」 ken, meaning fist.
