Well for those people who want PT to be kicked off the side of the SSBB earth foget about it. It's not going to happen and plus, nobody's FORCING you to play as him.
Except mabye completeness for Story Mode.

IMO, i think its gonna be like this
Squirtle = Falco(kinda fast w/ fast projectile)
Ivysaur = Mario(more balanced than other 2, mid projectile)
Charizard = Bowser (this is just obvious)
FS = Team Atk
i think this will be very, VERY interesting

i'm just saying, the chances of pt being broken in some way are very high. someone will find some random glitch that lets all 3 pokemon out at once or find a way to use pokeball invincibility frames to a breaking point

I'm feeling some team matches with PT and Ice Climbers. There's gonna be some mass confusion watching a bunch of trainers in the background while eskimoes fly around on screen.
Oh hell yah.

trainer vs. trainer will be the most interesting matches, think about the strategy involved. lol they'll probably ditto in the end with the pokemon though

P.S, the character was just announced a few hours ago - we barely know anything about the actual mechanics of PT! Give it some time and just enjoy this (especially cool) update.
Anyways, on to speculation! I bet everyone's gonna stay in squirtle form

There's about 80 more updates until the game is released.
You might as well start enjoying them now. =/

Don't worry you answered the point.
On to your question. . . . . no one has ever balanced a fighting game perfectly before. The problem is these "tourney *****" or "competative" players figure out the best way how to play with the character based on strats and methods (such as glitches or unintended physics exploits or uses of a move intended) that mostly take the game where the developer never expects. The best way to balance the game is to have really good players test the game. Even though Sakurai says he has these people who played the game alot, we have no idea how well they can test the game. This update in particular shows that he is adding new elements (like foot stool) here which really makes it hard to predict how to balance the game since it hasn't been thoroughly tested like 7 years of tournies in Melee. Sakurai is a smart dude and I do believe he will make a fun game, but the update I still don't like for the points already stated.

What, are you dense? Unless it's intentionally programmed, that's an impossibility.

Yeah, red_stone, I doubt there'd be a glitch where you can control all 3.

Exatcly. People find exploits and glitches in stuff to be able to do better in fighting games.

Meh, massive fail on my part. I havent watched star wars in ages.
Well, even if you are *******s, its not me you're hurting, its the forum. Personally I dont care anymore, itd be pretty sad if I still did.
Heck of course I was mad to find out I was being dissed all over some site by lots of people, but the shock has worn off..
please stop raiding smashboards? Pm raid me all you want, spam one of my threads, but I ask you again PLEASE stop ruining the discussions of people who deserve to discuss this update, people who love smash no matter what
the optomism in this thread is inspiring, Smashboards. Perhaps the trainer will be a valuable character afterall?
Thank you, and good night.

If there's no glitch that let's you play Sheik and Zelda at the same time, there will be none for the Pokemon.
The switch move could be lagged. It can also be made so that no jumps or moves can be made after switching in the air. We don't know anything other than what we see on the site.

Ivysaur obviously; only if they did implement something like type effectiveness though which I doubt.

Since when does a fighting game need to be perfectly balanced anyways? The only way to perfectly balance it would be to have a homogenous mix of characters with homogenous movesets and traits. Part of the fun of melee is that you can choose to be underpowered if you so desire and still have a good time. True, at super-high levels of competitive play (and even at lower levels) tiers are an important part of your decisions.. But this is both expected and understood.Don't worry you answered the point.
On to your question. . . . . no one has ever balanced a fighting game perfectly before.

Sakurai is a smart dude and I do believe he will make a fun game, but the update I still don't like for the points already stated.
To question Sakurai's design ethic seems like a silly and ill-informed move to me. This is the same man that brought us the incredible physics of mlee (a so-called "party game") in such abundance that we play it to this day as a competitive fighter. The man is clearly no stranger to fighting game mechanics (as we can deduce from the hardcore combat mechanics of melee).
In short, I think Brawl is going to be a much more polished step up from melee than melee was from Smash 64. Sakurai has had 7 years to really understand the issues with his previous game, and the Wii hardware is near identical to the GC's. Ease of development combined with his already established combat system means he can focus on fine-tuning what was wrong in melee instead of making an entirely new game from the ground up.
Only a pathetic scrub would use squirtle, because water is weak to electric.

I doubt there'll be type differences.
But if so, Ivysaur as it's not exactly weak to Electric. Charizard is Fire/Flying. Weak.
