Will listen to my bias & say Anna although Toadette & Nooklings are also good picks.

A new duo who can transform like Pyra/Mythra or classic Zelda/Shiek

Dark Matter

Power Up to add to Mario's moveset
Cloud Flower from Galaxy 2; replaces FLUDD as the Down Special and can be used to create a floating platform. You can use it off stage to aid in recovery or use it on stage to change up the layout.

The cloud platform can be passed through like most small platforms and can be destroyed if takes enough damage. Mario cannot make another one until the first disappears.

He performs the Star Spin from Super Mario Galaxy en placing the cloud and can continue to use this move after one is already out.

A character from an oddball spin-off. No standard stuff like another Persona character or Waluigi to rep the sports and party games. This one is a bit subjective, but things have to have gone in an unexpected direction. A few examples:

Fire Emblem to Tokyo Mirage Sessions
Gradius to Parodious or Otomedious
Bomberman to Bombergirl

Edit: 😣 Doh, hadn't refreshed the page since yesterday, didn't see that there were new posts.

So, for a new Pokemon for Unite, I'd go with Banette. No particular reasoning, it's just one of my favorites. Keeping the same question.

Does the Builder from Dragon Quest Builders count? I keep that.

A Taito rep for Smash (No Bubble Bobble nor Space Invaders)

Yeah, I would say so. Builders is a pretty big departure from standard DQ.

I'm not too familiar with Taito tbh. I assume we're only counting stuff actually developed by Taito. I'll go with the little I know; Reika from Time Gal, but that was a joint project with Toei, so I don't know exactly where that lands. If not that then one of the girls from Magical Date?

Pokémon Trainer (Rusty)

Western 3rd Party character from the N64 era
N64 era meaning they had a game on N64 or meaning they debuted in that era?

If the former than Rayman or Doom Slayer. If the latter Rocket from the Sucker Punch game of the same name or Glover, also from a game of the same name.

An in-game event that gives a handful of fighters new costumes based around said event. (Like in a gacha title.)

The latter, but both are ok.

Earthbound, would make a good parody of Epcot, only with aliens and PSI

An echo fighter for a Smash Ultimate DLC character, describe their differences with one another.

Gooigi for Luigi.
  • Less slippery but has shorter jumps
  • Smile balls Neutral B that traps the other players if shoot many of them.

I think they meant an Echo fighter for one of the actual DLC characters; :ultbanjokazooie::ultbylethf::ulthero::ultjoker::ultminmin:ultpiranha::ultpyra::ultmythra::ultsephiroth::ultsora::ultsteve::ult_terry:

Also, this thread is about choosing characters for particular criteria in Smash, so the Gex question doesn't quite fit here.
