Smash Ace
If Luigi is in a higher numbered port than his opponent (i.e. if he has lower port priority than his opponent), in certain combinations of stage and opponent character Luigi's down-B (the Luigi Cyclone) begins the match with a charge. See this thread: http://smashboards.com/threads/luigis-down-b-starting-charged.292168/
I play the PAL version, and upon testing it myself, I discovered that the list given in the thread appeared to be wrong; in some of the matchups which the thread stated Luigi should receive a charge automatically, he didn't, and vice versa.
I tested the 6 tournament-legal stages. My results were:

After discovering this, I tested a few characters on the 1.02 NTSC version using Dolphin, and they showed that the list in the original thread appeared to be correct for that version.
I would appreciate if other people with the PAL version could verify my tests.
