What if we had a character like Double who uses the best moves from the rest of the cast. Help me fill this out guys.
B- Synthesis/Solarbeam

vB-Falco shine yo
A- #Kirbyjabs

>>A-Wolf's
>C- Marth
^C- Fox
It could be Ditto. The only fitting nintendo "character" for that role, I think... that I know of. He transforms into a different char for each move/animation, then transforms back to ditto for idle standing/falling animations and maybe others. But all your "best moves" are wrong. It should be best or most iconic (or some compromise between the two) moves and animations from across the cast, but with quirks that make them slightly worse reminiscent of Ditto's inability to ever copy anything perfectly.
Falcon's fair, maybe the sweetspot/sour spot reversed tho
Falco's dair, but it's a meteor not a spike
Jigg's bair, slower to end and less disjointed
MK's Nair, not sure what difference
Pika's Uair, some spots send at different angles?
Roy's Dtilt, sends slightly more outward
DDDs Ftilt, but hammer is slightly smaller and easier to CC; could also be a 2-3 piece combo, starting with snake's Ftilt1, ending in DDDs
Sheik's Utilt maybe? Not many notable ones
Yoshi's dsmash maybe? but sends slightly higher angle
Marth's fsmash or maybe someone else, lots of options here for good ones
Lucas's or Fox's usmash, weaker or more outward
Jab combo 3 piece, ends in Ike's Jab3 overhead slash, but starts with other characters' jab1/2
Fox's laser if he's not already used, but as slow as falco's
ROB's side-b, slightly slower to start, only gets one
Not sure whose up-b, preferably not a long one
Snake's C4 or Link's bomb, slower to set-off+much weaker KBG or slower to pull, respectively
DK's fthrow->options (all slightly worse)
MewTwo's/Zard's uthrow
Maybe Sheik's dthrow, lots of other options tho
Mario's bthrow
Bowser's >100 ledge attack, slightly less reach and speed
Luigi's landfallspecial (for that wavedash animate mmmhmm)
Various other ledge options
Various Dodging options
Various knockdown options
Somebody's jumpstart animation
Somebody's initial dash (Marth's?) transitioning into someone else's run loop (Sheik's?)
there is so much cool stuff to be done with this
responding 4 pages late though
without reading anything after it
and quoting this for ease
I just realized. The perfect character for P:MBR's first P:M unique smash character is one nobody ever talks about- BattleToads. I don't know the names of the characters (do they have any?) but it doesn't matter since they fight the same. This has to happen. So many people have nostalgia for that game. It would be a nice homage for the sequel that never happened. Fair bit of potential for their moveset, too.
Hell, they even have item throw and crate carrying/throw animations, a swimming animation, and a ledgehang animation, in addition to stuff like a jab combo animation, various other attacks like a super kick, headbutt, overhead double fist swing, an uppercut, staff swing, etc, during most of which their limbs iconically expand to comic proportions. They even ride stuff at times- recovery moves. Also a taunt- the jaw drop when they meet a boss.
Also, can stick tongue out to catch flies, for w/e that's worth
Just gonna leave with:
Ridley is
still too big, resizing will look ********, and olimar's dumb, non-canon resizing is not a valid excuse for more dumb, non-canon resizing
Pichu is
still a ****ty character choice based on being a ****ty version of pikachu, there are much more deserving options... like battletoads, plus standard toaster confirmed the pichu pic for being a ruse
time to gtfo this thread before i catch the cancer
