So the Plasm Wraith seems to have survived the Direct somehow. I thought for sure it'd be a Spirit, but as far as I can tell it hasn't popped up yet. Instead we have the Bulborb and the Smoky Progg of all things. Speaking of which, anyone else feel like the Progg got an unusual amount of focus...

Piranha Plant is a more hype character than Incineroar and everyone from the Grinch leak don't @ me

Seeing as it's Smash Direct eve, I might as well officially throw my hat in with #TeamReal so I can confidently laugh at others/myself when the truth is revealed. Whatever happens, I'm not gonna be too concerned over what gets shown off. Already got Ridley and K. Rool, anything more is just a...

That Pikmin remix omg I love it new pikmin character confirmed???? I hope the selection of Pikmin tracks is better this time around. The series has some real bangers but the majority of the songs in Brawl and 4 were the more relaxing/peaceful ones. Would love to see some of the battle themes...

The Plasm Wraith does kinda have a nucleus in one of its forms. I do agree that the theory is a bit of stretch. It's certainly cool to think that this creature pursued Olimar in 3 different forms throughout the series, but it requires a bit of reaching to draw connections between those three...

Thanks for the support! I'm glad my thread was able to convince you of the Wraith's potential. I actually hadn't thought about the Plasm Wraith mimicking Olimar and leading its own squad of Pikmin. Pikmin 2 sort of played with that idea with the Antenna Beetle, but that only forced your...

I've only ever played the Wii game, but it was one of my favorite titles on the console. The idea of feeding jellybeans to the blob to make it transform is so charming, and the blob itself is one of the cutest characters I've ever seen. All of the transformations would lend themselves well to a...

Yeah the Plasm Wraith isn't remotely close to likely, even after everything we've seen; still, it's hard for me not to have a little hope after 2 of my other Smash dreams got fulfilled lol. I agree that the villain thing is almost certainly coincidental, but on the off-chance that it's not, the...

Thanks for your continued support! And yeah the influx of villains has me a little more hopeful for the Plasm Wraith's chances. On that same note, we made it through our first Direct without mention of the Plasm Wraith or any Pikmin content in general, aside from a better look at the updated...

Just watched the Direct. What a legendary presentation. I seriously couldn't be happier with it. Simon. Surprise Richter. Amazing Dracula's Castle stage. Chrom FINALLY getting his chance. Dark Samus rounding out the Metroid team. BRINSTAR DEPTHS AND FOUNTAIN OF DREAMS. Final Smash gauges. And...

oh hey another music leak /s Simon seems like a character that would get revealed at the end of a Direct. I feel like there's a good chance we'll get a reveal at the beginning too, but who? I'm predicting either Buzzwole a Pokémon, Bandana Dee, Ashley, or someone of a similar hype caliber.

What a horrible night to have a broken Smashboards. :p I'm almost more hyped to have Bloody Tears in the game than I am about Simon. Absolute banger of a song.

1. Nihilego, Buzzwole, Pheromosa - Nihilego played a big role in Sun and Moon's story and was the first Ultra Beast to be revealed. Buzzwole and Pheromosa were somewhat more prominent/marketed than the rest of the other Ultra Beasts, and have physiques and abilities that are easy to translate to...

AWAKEN MY ULTRA BEASTS Sakurai is known to be a pretty big Jojo fan.... Maybe he saw Buzzwole's concept art and was like "yes I want the jojo bug in smash"

Agreed. I would love to have the President as an alt especially, just because the thought of styling on people as him is too funny to pass up. Being able to play as all the captains + the Plasm Wraith is pretty much my (very unlikely) Smash dream, so I'm hoping at least one of those things...
