Personally, I'd prefer Bowser Jr. over Baby Bowser for a few reasons:

  • Easily separates Bowser's and his "clone's" moveset since Baby Bowser would have (potentially?) the same moveset as Bowser for it to make sense
  • It won't follow the "Baby" thing that's already going on with a lot of otehr characters
  • Baby Bowser can't beat a Yoshi
  • Bowser Jr. sounds much cooler

is it possible to give a mini bowser the star rod? would be epic :D maybe give him the falcon/sheik star rod ability, and change it in terms of strength,speed etc. would only change his ftilt/smash and dash attack. could also try to change it to look like a paintbrush :p
There's a vast amount of win in this post >.>. The star rod would affect his jab, too; however, in terms of knockback, speed and power... that can be changed, right? Sweetspots with the star rod would be awesome, too.

the main problem though is that while holding an item you cant grab... so we would have to maybe make the kooper klaw an alternative grab (lucky that he has it :p ), or just balance him out some other way. thats the only problem that i can see

can't sword ganon grab? if so, why cant bowser jr?

since he'll be holding star rod.......can it be changed into only f-tilt and jab are star rod moves?
star rod f-smash would be okay, but then it'd have to have infinite star shots and maybe less range since about 3 stars shoot out or change it to 1 star shot

I'm in full support of this idea. A unique mechanic like this would be simply awesome.

Though his inability to perform normal grabs may be an issue... maybe the hacking team can find a way around that.

oh well if he can grab with the star beam, then we have 1 serious prob.... no grab modifier atm, so would be exactly the same grabs as bowser.
I doubt it would be a problem unless it messes with the size mod. If grab range is decreased as well as power (and knockback? maybe a chaingrab :p), Bowser's smaller clone shouldn't have any problems with having the same grabs as Bowser. tbh, I'd rather just see Bowser Jr with a star rod working and have everything else fixed when it can be.

forbidden seven=characters in brawl that are not there. their data is still on the disk
they dont even have css slots.
only slots available are warioman,gigabowser,red,blue,green,yellow alloys, solo popo, solo nana

not sure whether it was popo or nana ( or both? ) have their own css slot

I think that it was just Popo.

Speaking of, why can Geno be made from solo Popo? :/
you mean nana. as of yet this is the Giga Bowser anf friends CSS equivilency:

Bowser -> Giga Bowser
Wario -> Wario Man
IC -> Popo
ROB -> Nana
Mario -> Yellow Alloy
C.Falcon -> Red Alloy
Kirby -> Green Alloy
Zelda -> Blue Alloy
