Pocket Fighter (ポケットファイター) is a versus fighting game by Capcom. As with Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo it uses "chibi"-style incarnations of characters chiefly hailing from the Street Fighter and Darkstalkers franchises.

In addition to old favorites like Ken, Felicia, Dan and Sakura and popular newcomer Ibuki, this game also showcases Tessa (Tabasa in Japan), a character from the CPS3 title Red Earth.
