OMG...

*cries of happiness*

I'm not the only one that would want him in... ^_^

Cubone for Brawl! (we need one of those sig images like my Isaac one.) He's just so ridiculously cute and awesome. Nothing beats Cubone. ^_^

I fully support Cubone for Brawl! One of the only new pokemon I'd be happy with. He was adorable as well as badass. Not Marowak though, because then he loses his cute edge. Cubone definitely deserves a spot over Lucario and any other Pokemon that wants in. CUBONE FOR BRAWL!

In your mind- Toying with your emotions
Cubone is one of my favorite Pokemon, but I don't think he should have a spot for a playable character. That's why they invented the Pokeball item. Opinion wise, I think all Pokemon characters should come out of Pokeballs and not be playable, but that's just me.

I don't think Cubone is that popular of a Pokemon to be playable. Pikachu, Pichu, Jigglypuff, and Mewtwo were the most popular Pokemon, so that is mostly the reason they got to be playable in Melee. But I would love to see Cubone as a Pokeball Pokemon. If he is a playable character, then I will be very, very, very suprised. That, and I'll eat my gym shorts.

Cubone? if you want him youmight as well pick out Pichu as well

I don't get your reasoning GigaKoopa. Pichu was a lame, clone character that all he did was hurt himself with electric attacks. He had no originality and even looked like Pikachu being his lower evolution. Cubone is a short stocky dinosaur with a skull over his head. He can bring a unique playstyle being a mid-weight--> heavy pokemon who uses a weapon (his bone). I know he has like no chances but he'd be a good addition and a great fighter.

Yes, I don't see that logic.

Pichu is a clone, Cubone wouldn't be a clone. I could see him working like Link, though. He'd have a few short range attacks, and he'd have a projectile as well. (what was it is, the bonemarang? XD It's been a while since I played the games and everything but I remember him throwing it.)

I'm not saying Cubone would be a clone of any sort because there would be nobody to clone by, I meant that "you might as well throw in Pichu" because he would be a horrible choice for brawl, his uniqueness in moves are good in all but the reality is that he doesn't have a chance at all imo, maybe perhaps as a pokeball, but not as a playable pokemon that's all i'm saying

I agree I don't think he has a very good chance, but did people think that Pokemon Trainer would have a chance? Just putting that out there.

The only reason Sakurai added Pokemon trainer was because he wanted to include Ivysaur, Charizard, and Squirtle all in one slot, rather then them taking up three slots, other than that I wouldn't see a reason for him to be in Brawl at all

no, because I simply don't like him, sure his moves would work out but IMO, hwe wouldn't work out for me

Cubone FTW!

It really bothers me that Cubone hasn't even been shown in a Pokeball.

Though, I was watching the intro of Melee on Youtube last night, and... when it shows all of the Pokemon Cubone is one of them! I had never noticed that. That is so awesome! Sakurai acknowledged Cubone's existence! ^_^

I don't like Sonic. Doesn't mean he shouldn't be in the game.

Cubone is adorable. He should at least be a pokeball pokemon. I swear there is some type of plothole/evolution line because I could swear Cubone is a baby Kangashkan.

I always thought Cubone was awesome...


I thought they should have made mother cubone a ghost/ground type just for that part of the game and gave her ghost/ground/normal moves...


It would have been awesome...

Add this thread to POKEMON BATTLE: WHICH POKEMON DESERVES TO BE IN BRAWL
and close it here!! -_-
Why? Lucario can have his own topic... Why can't Cubone?

Seriously, if you don't know anything about the rules for locking topics, don't start going around saying topics should be locked.

Moveset!!!

B) Bonemerang - Throws Bone Club at opponent
FB) Bone Rush - Charges violently at opponent with club and strikes hard
UB) Rock Climb - Raises upward with levitating rocks
DB) Dig - Digs into ground or throw ground layer, can pop out for sneak attack...can only be hit by certain attacks

Final) Earthquake - Shakes the ground, stunning and severly damaging all who are affected.

Very cool movelist, except maybe for the Bonerush he charges with his head down, bashing them with his skull? Cubone, he would be cool to see as a Pokeball just for his recognition, but I think he's deserving of a character slot. Cubone for Brawl!

****ing stage hazards... They ruin everything.

Still... At least he got any recognization at all. I mean, honestly, I didn't expect to see him at all.

Waiting for you to slip up.
Maybe he wacks people who get too close.

And a one dollar bill to whoever can guess what the Electric Stage hazard is...

Well, maybe Cubone is out of the picture...

But what of Marowak?

Man, that's hoping for too much. Marowak probably won't appear in the game at all. >_>

Yeah, it's pretty cool that Cubone's in Brawl at all.
Many of my favorites will doubtless be forgotten, like Quagsire, Octillery, Shiftry, Seedot, Nosepass, Dunsparce, Torkoal, or Spheal.

Cmon who really cares about Cubone LMAO
Cubone is the best Pokemon ever, and would have made an interesting addition to Brawl had he been playable.

So of course I care. >_>

I should have specified... It's my opinion.

I don't recall ever using him in the games, but I believe that's aside from the point. I think he could have been fun to play as in Brawl.

And so, The bone item defines cubone/marowak and FYI with that and sword dance Marowak achieves the greatest attack in the game. Period.

But besides that Cubone is just cool. I think pokemon did him a big disservice (they boosted up less worth pokes in places of the emo bone monster). At least Cubone makes the background for Poke stadium.
