Both Lucario and and Mewtwo? I doubt it. Lucario is Mewtwo's successor.And why can't we have both?
Hardly. Both were planned at one point or another, and they really aren't all that similar(different types, different roles, different movesets).
Keep in mind we don't have any idea exactly how 'planned' he was. All that's left of Mewtwo is a directory file. It could well have been that he was intented to return very early on, until it was decided Lucario should be included.
Cool it. It's not outlandish to assume that Lucario replaced Mewtwo and you know it. I'd even say it's obvious. Having scraps of data left hanging around, even an unused victory theme (which isn't, all that's there is the name of the file from when all characters were going to have individual victory fanfares) still doesn't mean he was pulled out at the last minute. There's no need to flip out at me, I'm just discussing the possibility.
It's also crazy to assume they use characters to replace others based on "patterns" we don't know exist. I'm not sure what the issue is with both of them being in the game, and considering the continued or growing popularity of both Mewtwo *and* Roy, it's not ridiculous that one or both of them will return.
I'm not calling out a pattern. I don't believe in patterns either. But I do believe Lucario can be considered Mewtwo's replacement, even if there are a lot of differences between the way they play. That's not an unreasonable suggestion, right? I thought it was a pretty commonly held belief.
Yes. Lucario gets stronger the more he is hurt. It's a unique ability which makes him more offensive when damaged. If Mewtwo remains a light weight (hope he doesn't) then he will become more and more defensive when he is at a higher percentage. More so than other characters.Let mewtwo come back.
Just asking, if mewtwo and lucario become semi-clones, will the aura mechanic make their play style appreciably different?
They won't take out Jigglypuff. She's been in three games now.
Jiggles is a veteran, she's not going anywhere.
While I agree with you, this is likely not going to happen. I can think of many Pokemon that I would rather play. If they took her out, though, there would be huge flaming and QQing and crying about it. So might as well keep her in.
Wasn't Revolution a battle sim? (A terrible one at that, even though it SHOULD have been like Stadium 2, but noooo)
It's been a while, but it's very well done. It's all in Japanese, but it's easy to get past that and straight into the fighting. Although a couple of their character choices were kind of odd.
I'm surprised they haven't made a Smash style game with only Pokemon. There is enough of a fan base and plenty of Pokemon to make it work.
