Come on, stop hating on fiery felines since our only chance to get a cat character in Smash Bros!

I found this fan art endearing and it did a lot to warm me to Brionne's design.

So, I then made the mistake of googling more art of Brionne.

Bear in mind that I have Safe Search ON.

One piece has Brionne opening her mouth full of creamy goo. I mean, maybe it's saliva. Very glue-like saliva.

Another had a disembodied hand grabbing a blushing Brionne's butt.

Another had Brionne all fat and swollen after apparently eating someone.

I... I think that's enough internet for today. Maybe forever.

You could have just used the site the linked image was from. Google image search of any cartoon is going to give you some serious wtf.

Now search up Gardevoir.

They will run whatever is most popular, and if that includes pre evolutions I guess thats that.
Having split tiers gives you a lot of size variety to play with as opposed to 3 fully evolved, and honestly its always been endearing to have non evolved pokemon doing their best as opposed to people just using whats supposed to be the strongest on paper.



Well... they did have the saddest episode of the anime dedicated to them, but yeah there is a lot more you can do with the 3rd form as a character.
While it's true that they might run with Pokemon that's had proven popularity the thing is at the time of the game's planning we didn't know the full set of starters. So Sakurai pretty much had to shoot in the dark for Pokemon to choose in Smash and popularity would've been hard to tell at that point.

It's also as I said that a Pokemon Professor with knowledge in Pokemon moves and was a seasoned trainer would use a team of fully evolved Pokemon and it would help him standout compared to the Pokemon Trainer.

Okay sorry to distract from all of the Pokemon talk, but I just want to say.

We need Hyrule Warriors music in this game.

The Sun and Moon final evolutions are seriously some of the best designs ever. They're such a well-designed trio that I'd love to see them all playable in Smash.

did we cover this? basic gist is that certain series with more than one character have a special "black" version of their logo stored on the site, and this guy discovered that f-zero, rob, pac-man and wii fit all have a black logo stored on the site.

there's numerous holes but its interesting to think about who would even be a second rep for these series'.

It would be a pretty cool contrast to regular PT, yeah. However I do think each of them would need some sort of scruple or fundamental weakness for the trio aspect to hold up.

Interestingly, while both Daisy and Waddle Dee have multiple entries, It doesn't seem that Isabelle doesn't.

Might punch a hole into Vergeben's rumors...

Doesn't Isabelle already have 2 Amiibo, though? 4 if we count the Animal Crossing cards? That just seems weird all around.

We've been made assured multiple times by his fans that Bandana Waddle Dee and regular Waddle Dee's are not the same character. So even if Waddle Dee is to have multiple Amiibo, that shouldn't affect Bandana Waddle Dee, who has yet to have one of his own

Bandana Dee's species is Waddle Dee. It's the same thing with Normal Yoshi's & the 4 Yarn Yoshis' Amiibo all being read as the main Yoshi in Smash 4; the generic character reads as the canon ones in games where the distinction doesn't matter. I'm assuming Inklings will be treated the same way.

Also, the generic Waddle Dee Amiibo gives Kirby Bandana Dee's bandana in Planet Robobot, so maybe the Amiibo is just Bandana Dee, but hatless. I mean, the Amiibo's pose is one of the Dee falling.


Kukui would single-handedly make the game entirely too sexy

Thank you! I didn't want to be that poster, but yeah. Kukui would be the hottest character on the roster by far. I'm all for Kukui because he's an amazing character for his role in SuMo & his personality, but... looks definitely might have me biased.

Well F-Zero has a roster of like 40 potential character candidates (since only Captain Falcon, Samurai Goroh and Blood Falcon are out of the running), but it would seem likely it'd be Black Shadow. Pac-Man having Ms. Pac-Man as Echo isn't out of the question either. ROB would probably have to have Professor Hector, since there's no other characters involved in the series unless they count a general Famicom/NES hardware-based character as the same series (which isn't out of the question), and that would also explain why ROB hasn't gotten a home stage on his fighter page. Wii Fit I have absolutely no clue though who could be added there.

What would rowlett's movement be? Just always flying?

Nope. Have Rowlett hop along the ground & make the li'l hooter a Jigglypuff Echo. I legitimately want this as the Gen 7 rep with Mimikyu gone. I love owls.

Neat! I should buy some & put them next to my Sonic X card game for the novelty (& yes, it is called "Gotta Go Fast").

F-Zero & Pac-Man are easy; the former gets Jody Summers or Black Shadow, the latter gets Ms. Pac-Man, full-stop. The others could get Professor Hector or the sentient Balance Board, but I somehow doubt that'll happen.

I think this is actually pretty old,I remember it going around I think before the last direct.

Like you said there's a lot of holes. Fire Emblem lacks it entirely and several series that otherwise probably wouldn't get any secondary reps have it.

I wonder if the Tharja trophy will stay buried in the depths of the prerelease version of Smash 3DS. I still think it's amusing how it was the only trophy not to make it from the ESRB leaked footage.

Like what? Have boring typical humanoid punches and kicks and shoot fire from his crotch belt instead of his mouth.

If its typical then the designers failed and so have your imagination. Its not just the wrestling motif that has moveset potential because having limbs lets you create moves from a massive well of martial arits, fighting game, pro wrestling, and anything else that people can do. This is why 99.9% of characters in fighting games are humanoid.

Id love a 4 legged character if they could make it work well, but its not really something easy to give a moveset to unless you're a combo of 2 very cartoony characters ie. Duck Hunt or the sole star of your own action game like Amaterasu.

I'm ok with a floppy or surfing Brionne, but Rowlet is a little too weird specifically for a ring out game like smash.

Also who in their right mind prefers Incineroar to Litten? I don't care if it ruins a wrestling motiff, I want Litten.

You know how some characters like Charizard fly when they're sprinting? Basically that. I don't know, it doesn't seem like that much of a stretch to me. He'd basically be a little ball like Kirby!

I find Incineroar to be way cooler than Litten. I see way more personality and moveset potential with the wrestler motif than just the little fire cat.

The reason I favor three different stages of evolution is, for some reason, I find switching between three Pokemon of the same relative size to be weird. The light, medium, heavy thing just works so well with Pokemon Trainer that I wouldn't mind seeing it again. Second, a professor would be all about evolution! It's a little showcase of Pokemon, where they start, and how strong they can become!

CoroCoro talks about Smash?

Will this week's CoroCoro really have Smash in it or is that speculation? I expect it to have Pokemon but not Smash
