'''[[Pocket Fighter]]''' (known as '''Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix''' in arcades outside of Japan) is an arcade game developed by [[Capcom]] in [[1997]].  In Pocket Fighter, twelve characters from various Capcom fighting franchises, including [[Street Fighter Alpha]], [[Street Fighter III]], [[Darkstalkers]], and the lesser known [[Red Earth]] game, are depicted in super-deformed, or "chibi", artwork style.  Using a simplified fighting system, the game is a light hearted poke at some of Capcom's own successful fighting games.
