    Poison?

    All right, Capcom, you win.

    Poison has been in Street Fighter games before as Hugo's manager in SFIII. She was also supposed to be a fighter in Capcom Fighting All-Stars years ago before it was canned. Close enough, I guess? At least Capcom is being a bit creative with the roster.

    LOL Reading Yoshimitsu's name made me think of Yoshinori Ono. Maybe he should be a skin!

    Poison was originally a mook enemy from Final Fight. There's a bit of a crazy backstory behind her, because on the SNES version of the game, Poison (and her palette swap counterpart Roxy) were replaced with two male characters, Billy and Sid. I don't remember all of the details, but somehow this turned into a joke of Poison being transgendered.

    Honestly, I don't know what Capcom considers Poison's gender anymore. If she's a dude, she's a hot one, though. And has a superhuman ability to pack away a bulge.

    Poison is pretty much a female again.

    I believe she's canonically a post-op transexual in North America and pre-op in Japan. Yoshinori Ono confirmed it in an interview with EGM a few years ago.

    @Hailinel: It's an interview that Ono did with EGM, Kotaku just reported it.
     
    From the interview:

    Let's set the record straight: In North America, Poison is officially a post-op transsexual. But in Japan, she simply tucks her business away in order to look like a girl.

    @Anwar: Yeah, Soul Calibur and DOA are definitely way sluttier than Tekken, but Unknown, Nina, Christie, and Julia got some tight outfits on.

    @RockmanBionics: They should have given shim Dr. Girlfriend's voice from the Venture Bros.

    @skrutop: okay tight outfits but early on, where you couldn't see shit, because it was poor 3d, they weren't that skanky, but Cammy and Chun-Li were sluttier from the start for me, I have not paid attention to the newest costumes of tekken characters though.
    If you think Chun-Li and Cammy look slutty, you must be using the wrong English dictionary.
