If we got Phoenix and Lloyd or Yuri it would be fantastic. I’m not excited about a Pokémon, but at that point I’d already have gotten two of my most wanted characters so I’d be fine with it
I'd love Phoenix
On the other hand... I'm looking forward to Unite releasing. Considering Tencent hasn't dropped their ball with HoK, I'm expecting this to have at least a decent amount of long-term support.
I guess you could say you... dig it.[Garchomp with a ****ing snorkle]
Okay, the employee that came up with that deserves a pay raise. S tier costume.
Gonna be honest the only reason I care about Infernape is because my brother finds anything adapted from Sun Wukong hilarious after he finished Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint. Something about “prisoner of the golden headband” must’ve broke him inside.
Seeing how Joker was implemented makes me doubt we'll get another two/three-in-one moveset, tbh. I think even if we end up getting a trainer as DLC, I find it more likely for them to team up with one Pokemon at most. Which can be interesting, depending on how it's done.
Fixed; Nobody is a step above a meme pick. That's why we'll be getting a meme pick as the Touhou rep
I think Phoenix Wright would be great.
The thing that makes me doubt a Gen 8 pokemon in DLC is that a new playable pokemon rep is also released with generation respective Pokeball summons like:
Unless Sakurai pulls a funny of course.
Well let's see, I love Ace Attorney and made a fan moveset for Phoenix Wright out of love for the character,
Phoenix Wright makes the pass for me.
I don't want a Gen 8 mon myself, but is that any worse than having to wait a game for Guile and Rodin ATs?
I once thought Elesa could have something where you must hit with Volt Switch to switch out.
By your logic, we would’ve gotten a Gen 3 rep in Brawl because there were also Gen 3 summons, and a Gen 5 rep in Sm4sh because there were also Gen 5 summons.
Tbf, it's not like they've been adding extra pokeballs/assists as dlc in the first place.
I mean I don't know if it matters to the Pokemon company but they seem pretty restrictive with how Pokemon is represented and Smash has lots of reservations made for them. The only DLC Pokemon character we've got so far is Mewtwo and he's a veteran who represents an already represented generation.
Except I never said anything about not representing a previous generation.
I don't understand what the problem is. Each new generation of pokemon of the year gets a character and Pokeball summons to go along with them. How is that explanation weird?
Never really got this logic, TBH. So what, does the spirit event have to have included every single Galar 'mon for Gen 8 to be considered out of the running? With other spirit events, even if they didn't cover every notable character, they were still agreed to be a critical hit (heh) towards these characters. The point still stands that if they were going to include Gen 8 in Pass 2, then why did they do a Gen 8 spirit event around the time FP2 was finalized in the first place? Wouldn't they have just saved those spirits for the playable 'mon's board?
The problem here is that we've only had two rounds of Smash DLC and only one has overlapped with a new Generation that could provide new Pokemon so we can't say for certain that TCPi absolutely wants summons to go along with a character. It's entirely possible they'd be fine with a Gen 8 Pokemon coming without them, particularly since the draw of a playable character is still pretty huge on its own (just look at Incineroar coming without a new stage unlike previous games).
Dragalia Lost is available in the UK, it's the only European country it's available in though.
For all we know, they probably could’ve looked at other options during that time and then used the ones they figured couldn’t be fighters as Spirits.
There wasn’t any spirit event for Three Houses before Byleth was revealed. If post-release spirits don’t disconfirm, this would make no sense as there are enough Three Houses characters not only for a spirit event, but also for a spirit board.
Like I just said in my previous post, wouldn't they have just saved those for the playable rep's spirit board?
Erases all of Europe except the UK from the map
Cinderace: Ahoy!
If that's the case, why would there be new Pokeball summons every smash game if the Pokemon company would be fine without them? Pokeball summons are an item exclusive to that series that summon different kinds of Pokemon so wouldn't they want new Pokemon to come along with their new Pokemon character? Pokemon are the main highlights of the series.
I was thinking Aviary Attorney, myself.
Like I said before too, they didn’t even scratch the surface with the amount of Galar-original Pokémon to use for Spirits. Literally only 7 out of 89, and nearly all of them were grouped together (those being the starters and legendaries).
Yeah it's weird because he just kinda...is there now. Butter Building too. He's a bit more interesting than in the official Smash games, but I think in terms of game feel he's more of a sidegrade than an upgrade.
Yeah I think that's it. Especially since they just unceremoniously drop down at the last second and then float in place because they otherwise don't fit in the shot.
Those seven were fairly major Pokemon, though. The starters, the Legendaries, the Pikaclone, and one of the first Pokemon revealed. It's not like they just tossed together a bunch of randomly-chosen Pokemon like, say, Centiscorch, Appletun, Barraskewda, and Dracovish. No, they went for the Pokemon who got heavily pushed in the marketing. Because of that, I don't really see SwSh happening.
You'd basically be making an archetype of characters who all share the same down special, but we got three Links so I'm not complaining.
Somewhat curiously looking forward to it, I have kind of always heard about MOBAS before on PC and in recent years Mobile and wondered what the big deal it is with them, But I have always been a console gamer and personally don't find the popular ones you always hear about appealing from a setting and style stand point.
This is still confusing me what you're saying.
It DOES feel like a huge missed opportunity to create a fully decloned Ganondorf. It's weird how that game decides to remain slavish to Smash at times(like deciding to add Pichu...)
Extreme "meh".
I think it would be a massive waste to spend the development resources of 3 characters to create one character, when they could spend them on 3 new characters instead.
Yeah, Smash doesn't seem to care much about DLC. I'd presume it's you'll need the base game in the first place just to get the DLC, so the base game is what gets pushed. If we get a SwSh rep, I think it'll be a base game Pokemon.
The opposite, actually. The English fanbase is big enough that ZUN can just let them make translations for him. Seeing as he's just one guy, having the fans translate stuff for him means he gets that much extra time to work on other stuff.
The UK sorted that out in its own wayErases all of Europe except the UK from the map
UK is the only Europe, therefore Dragalia is available in all of Europe. Euden's fine
If this applies to Pokemon then it applies to other games and franchises that got hit with spirit events like Resident Evil btw.
