I have an Idea for an Assist Trophy.

I do find it weird that Zelda is Nintendo's 2nd or 3rd most popular franchise and yet, the last two games haven't had a new character. I mean Sheik was only in Ocarina and yet she is still in.

With the caveat that I could not condemn harassment, death threats, and any abhorrent behavior of that nature more strongly. . .I hope, if against all odds and hints from insiders, the Grinch Leak is true, they undergo at least some introspection. Personally speaking, regardless of intent, when people only ever allude to what they know in one-line "it's wrong and I won't elaborate why" responses, specifically to people getting excited about Smash characters, it comes off as elitist. As though that person has some impulse to be paternalistic and police discussion, when it's such a minor deal if a few people get angry because their expectations aren't met. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way.

The Grinch very well may be fake, and that's fine, this game is going to be superlative no matter what, but no one is at fault for not taking insider one-liners at face value, when the banner and surroundings are so singularly well crafted, and when the details from people who elaborated under pressure are wildly conflicting. If all those people are somehow missing something, whether because their information is outdated or they're not well-sourced within specific companies, it would be nice to get not an apology, but some sort of admission that, hey, maybe the people we smirked at like PapaGenos were on to something.

I am worried about the fallout no matter what, and that if Grinch is real, the internet's dirty underbelly will be extremely scummy to the insiders. Everyone stay safe. But any kind of discussion of what would hypothetically be blind spots for a historic number of insiders is not in and of itself "toxic."

...honestly what are a lot of insiders supposed to do if they've got inside knowledge they can't exactly share without screwing up an NDA or endangering their sources, but this knowledge simultaneously makes it obvious some potential leak is fake or highly unlikely?

I'd rather insiders at least drop a hint at something making no sense with established knowledge, even without it being detailed, than pure radio silence.

for those who played super mario rpg and got any idea as to what i'll talk about: do you think that if geno is revealed tomorrow it should have mallow somewhere in his moveset, or straight up have mallow as AT instead ?

If Geno is in, our little frog deserves to be an AT casting Thunder or something along the lines.

Sheik, especially now that she's separated from Zelda, can just represent a Sheikah from Zelda. So she doesn't have to be the one from OoT. There are plenty of Sheikahs.

I want Grinch to be real, think it's gonna be fake. If it is fake, though, and Incineroar is real... just think about how perfect he is going to be now.

He's a heel wrestler in Pokemon form. Already, I realized I liked the idea of Incineroar's inclusion because of how much people were against him. Makes him a great heel.

But now, the Grinch leak is going to amplify that to an obscene degree. Incineroar is going to be like, the representative entity for people's salt over the Grinch leak being fake. They will undeservedly pour all their hate and frustration over characters they like not getting in into Incineroar. Incineroar will be the one that is blamed for "getting in instead of the character I like".

He's the ultimate heel for the ultimate Smash Bros. game. If he is in the game, it is a thing of beauty.

Smash fans are going to hate Incineroar as much as Bayonetta and I love it. I hope he'll be completly broken, as much as Bayo lmao

Incineroar getting in after all this will be Roman Reigns winning the Royal Rumble over all the other fan favorites.

Such a Big Dawg.
