That definitely looks like a problem with the renders;
Also notice how Pyra is missing her two wings (?) behind her.
And it's also fortunate that this leak includes TWO new characters!
I think her “scarves” are still there, they must have shrunk in the washing machine big time though :4pacman:

Why would you put Bewear who is already a Pokeball Pokemon?
The real question is how it got chosen to join the battle as a fighter. I don't dislike Bewear, and it didn't do too bad on the Google poll from last year, but I don't really see it being TPC's next choice for an Alola rep.

Another 4chan "leak", though this time it's not a new character.

View attachment 311707

Apparently an extension to World of Light.

Probably fake (good old blurry pic from an angle) but I do wish for something more for the adventure mode.

Also I appreciate the Fusion armor for Samus.
I’d be super down for a WoL expansion if they made it more in line with Subspace. Otherwise, eh. I basically had to force my self to complete Vanilla World of Light so if it’s just that but more I can do without.

It's nice that the person who did this took his time and efforts to show that Bewear's back is pink and not black (i never noticed that before in his actual design).
For the record, there is official, non-leaked Pokemon art that shows this as well:

Think the one's lying down is Mega Man, due to his boot being visible.

Still, yeah I'm joining the choir and saying 100 % fake. WoL does not use "Press X to Skip" in its text (second pic), only "Skip", for instance.
According to the third pic I found (creepy eyes Falco) it says “press start”

Pretty sure the guy gave up after people calling it fake. I believe it's a Blender scene as some anon stated.


For the characters, using the second pic, I believe it is, from left to right:

-Master Chief or Simon
-Falco
-Pyra
-Samus in her Fusion armor
-Young Link who drank too much milk
-Female Pokemon Trainer but the colors of her shirt and of her skirt are mixed up for some reason
-Bewear
-Steve's blocks on the far right
You guys are that Bewear is in Ultimate as a Pokemon assist character, right?

Do I believe this "leak" is real?
No, but I don't think we should dismiss it outright.

I'm dismissing it because, frankly, the models don't look good and there are tons of glitches.
Also I'm more and more certain that the thing on the ground is a Link that's drunk with an eye sticking close to the other.

Since someone mentioned spirits, for how long do you think they'll keep adding spirits in this game if the Challenger Pack 11 is the last one? A year? Until the end of the console's life? Six months? Stop immediately?

I guess it would be a hot take to say that I actually enjoyed WOL. I would be down for an Expansion that is using all the spirits from the DLC boards and the spirit events.

A Subspace sequel would be better though.
The only possible issue (outside of Sakurai's intense aversion of spoilers re: cutscenes, which is really weird) is how to deal with the more recent characters and power creep in terms of moves' raw damage output. Subspace enemies are not going to shield or avoid attacks as often as humans are going to, which might result in more scenarios where Subspace enemies are OHKOed or entire rooms are cleared.

Thinking primarily:

:ultcloud: : His Limit charges much quicker vs. bosses already.
:ultridley: : Plasma Breath, Skewer (which might be much easier to land on the huge Subspace enemies).
:ultincineroar: : Revenge.
:ulthero: : Ca. 2/3 of his B moves. Oh plus his 1/8 chance to crit on his Smashes combined with his buffs. It's worth noting that Side B is also buffed by Oomph and Psyche Up.
:ultbyleth: : Fully charged Arrow, Aymr in some situations.
:ultsephiroth: : The Flare family, Octaslash to some degree.


We've already seen it to some degree with WoL (Alpharad used Cloud to shred the final fight when doing his second and successful Nuzlocke), so it's worth considering if Subspace's brought back.

is bringing new gimmick is a requirement for a DLC newcomers currently? since i have noticed each newcomer had like 8 minutes or more to explain moveset
Smaller aspects are also worth noting, even if they're not instantly interesting from a casual standpoint. For example, Sakurai outright noted that Mythra's Down Tilt is a good combo starter due to its properties, even if it looks unremarkable at first glance.

Since someone mentioned spirits, for how long do you think they'll keep adding spirits in this game if the Challenger Pack 11 is the last one? A year? Until the end of the console's life? Six months? Stop immediately?
Umm... good question. IDK as well. Kinda inclined to say at least a couple months since I believe (and really hope) they continue with balance patches.

Yall talking about the Third Mario Rep in this Game even though we had neither a Kirby nor Zelda Newcomer in the Last 2/3 Games!

Bandana Dee or Dark matter for Kirby

And Impa or Skullkid/Vaati for Zelda
You should know how Skull kid Looks!

Deserve To be in!
Impa definitely deserves it as much as Bandana Dee at this point. I have hope for her eventually making it, BD too, but not this game most likely.

Star Hill. Why do you ask?
i know the picture is old but i am wondering what made them decided to remove some of the mii costumes

they were useful i once had
  • Slippy and Frogger with that Frog hat
  • Leo from Red earth with that Lion hat
  • Black mage with the straw hat and that mage gunner outfit
  • Ruby heart from Marvel vs Capcom 2 with that pirate hat
  • Claus/Masked man with that mii helmet

My 2cents:

-I also believe that Porky's absence is strange, and I don't believe in him being in the capsule at all.
There's an issue: why would they choose Porky for a DLC fighter? Only way I can see it happening now is if Sakurai actually intended to add him in as DLC from the start (not unlikely, we have some evidence that characters from FP2 were already discussed as far back as 2015 in the case of Steve). In all honesty, he would have fit more as a base roster character. Though they did add Lucas as a DLC again for the previous games...

-King Boo is cool, and I don't see any reason against his inclusion. That would be great to see him in. However, after more than a year, maybe they really forgot to make an event for Luigi Mansion 3...

-Decidueye has the advantage of being a starter in Legends, but would Sakurai have thought about that possibility years beforehand? He is not an oracle as far as we know. I think he missed his chance despite the interview.

I have nothing against these characters, but Monster Hunter also seemed obvious, and was sent to the shadow realm. From most likely to least likely, I'd say:

King Boo > Porky > Decidueye

I think they simply decided to remove most OC costumes from the DLC.
Which makes me wonder if they'll readd the red koopa shell hat, since it's technically a Mario hat.
