Yhea how do you switch characters with the debug mode. How to choose you character, and do they switch after each stock? or do you need to activate in a game...

Activate debug mode. If the game "freezes" instead of zooming in like it normally does when you press pause, it's in debug mode.

:GCB: + :GCDpad:LEFT/RIGHT
Swap to the next character.

:GCA: + :GCB: + :GCDpad:LEFT/RIGHT
Swap to the next 10th character.

When swapping between characters, they are ordered alphabetically (sorta) by their assigned names in the game files. Make sure you let the game finish loading each character individually before attempting another swap by 1 or swap by 10 command, since it can sometimes end up loading the commands indefinitely (and if there are no characters loaded on screen, you can't pause the game to quit out; you'll have to restart your system or wait it out for however minutes it takes). They are ordered like so:
  1. :falcon: captain
  2. :dedede: dedede
  3. :diddy: diddy
  4. :dk2: donkey
  5. :falco: falco
  6. :fox: fox
  7. :gw: gamewatch
  8. :ganondorf: ganon
  9. :ike: ike
  10. :kirby2: kirby
  11. :bowser2: koopa
  12. :bowser2: koopa ("gigabowser")
  13. :link2: link
  14. :lucario: lucario
  15. :lucas: lucas
  16. :luigi2: luigi
  17. :mario2: mario
  18. :marth: marth
  19. :metaknight: metaknight
  20. :mewtwopm: mewtwo
  21. :ness2: ness
  22. :peach: peach
  23. :pikachu2: pikachu
  24. :olimar: pikmin
  25. :pit: pit
  26. :ivysaur: pokefushigisou
  27. :charizard: pokelizardon
  28. :squirtle: pokezenigame
  29. :popo: popo
  30. :popo: popo ("sopo")
  31. :jigglypuff: purin
  32. :rob: robot
  33. :roypm: roy
  34. :samus2: samus
  35. :zerosuitsamus: samus (szerosuit)
  36. :snake: snake
  37. :sonic: sonic
  38. :toonlink: toonlink
  39. :warioc: wario
  40. :wolf: wolf
  41. :yoshi2: yoshi
  42. :zelda: zelda
  43. :sheik: zelda (sheik)

Alternatively, what you're describing (swapping out characters each stock) could be PM 3.5's all-star mode. Instead of going to "VERSUS" mode, go to "SPECIAL VERSUS," go down to "OTHER" (the last option), and set it to "ALL-STAR" and hit OK! In order to pick different characters/costumes for each stock, follow these steps:
  1. Hover your "mouse" over the character you wish to select
  2. DO NOT press A yet
  3. Press X/Y to select your costume
  4. NOW press A, once your desired costume is shown
  5. Press A/B to pick your character token thingy back up
  6. Repeat steps 1-5 for your next characters.
  7. If you wish to reset your selections, you must exit out of and re-enter ALL-STAR mode from the SPECIAL VERSUS options screen.

Imagine the number of stocks as your available "slots" for character/costume choices.
  • If there are the same number of stocks and selected characters/costumes, you will play as each of them in the selected order.
  • If there are more stocks than selected characters/costumes, you will play as each of them in the selected order, and then it will cycle back to the first choice and you will play as each of them again until the number of stocks runs out.
  • If there are less stocks than selected characters/costumes, the "extra" characters/costumes will not be included, and only the first bunch of characters/costumes will be played as in the order selected.
