So I told myself I wouldn't do this. Well it hasn't been the only time I've lied to myself. But believe this character has been commited an injustice by smash fans. Who is he? He's Dr. Lobe.



You might recognize him from the big brain games


He's pretty much established himself in Nintendo and has become the mascot of the BBG's as well. He plays role in two highly profitable games and at this point shows signs of continuing.





So we have established that he is a nice Nintendo character but a Brawl fighter? In my opinion having seen Game & Watch and Red become Playable Characters, I believe any decent character could now fit in. He'd be the perfect WTF character. One sure to raise eyebrows and I know he'd get a fanbase.

BUT WHAT WOULD BE HIS MOVES, HOW WOULD HE PREFORM?

I believe I have figured it out. Now I won't bore you with stats or a overly excessive movelist but I will give possible specials, a attacks, and grabs.

A attacks



You see that stick in his hand, he'd use it to swack the player with it. smash attacks might have some math or reading symbols come out to whack the opponent. He can also use his head his hat, stubs and body as attacks as well. Grabs can work in the same way too.

B attacks /SIZE]

basic special: Dr. Lobe gives the player next to him a mentor smack ( a stick slap to the head), the recipent then becomes dizzy like after breaking one's shield. It would have more range than Mewtwo's disable and more stun than the pitiful attack as well

right special: Dr. Lobe would point his wand forward as a wave of mathematics and reading streams forward. It has as much distance as Bowser's fire breath when using the attack and would experience a bit of lag, but the wave would be good in that it pushes the opponent away from Dr. Lobe.

Down special: He waves his wand as a big brain comes out from the sky above him and crashes into the ground. After impact a green bubble appears showing it's weight in grams. It can be random in nature as some brains can be heavier than others. The move can have the same nature as yoshi's bomb abit him not moving. While the move is taking place Dr. Lobe experiences lag but also has super armor so he doesn't move when he gets hit (he still experiences damage though).

Up special: you know the balance scale dr. Lobe stands on during the games? Well his Up special would be just that. the balance scale would catch him and shoot him back into the air (like a spring). Another idea is that a weight appears and that a random item falls on the other side shooting him up. the item could be random (pig, brain, etc.) and shoot him up a random height. the move would have slight lag before shooting him up (like fox's).



one way his up B can work

Final Smash: The good Doctor jumps on his scale and waves his wand. a chart appears in the background as a humongous cranium falls from the sky crashing into the ground below.

I'm not going to get into stats or anything of that nature because it's has no purpose in proving the character as a worthy fighter but rather a likeable one. Do you think Dr. Lobe could fit in the brawl formula. Please comment.

And you also said that you laughed at fan boys who supported Red or Ash . But look who's in brawl now. Sakurai said he wanted to put in odder more diverse characters in brawl. Dr. Lobe is the perfect WTF character
I don't remember laughing at supporters of Red, i liked the idea... And i still think he would be stupid.

I'm sorry but I mean you laughed at the concept of Red being in brawl (otherwise you thought there wouldn't be a chance)

and gath, you broke my heart Mic. To each his own I guess.

Or
Hah, did you join when the blog and forums merged? Nice chunk of posts, good sir.

Well thought out thread... I have to say I can't really see him being any more than an AT, but you did give him moves that'd be more interesting than most movesets I see around here. Nice pictures and descriptions too.

Note: Unless I'm fairly confused, there are apparently two Mics. I believe the Mic that you might be remembering is the moderator Mic, whose name will be in red to indicate omnipotence.

I'm all for it.
I can see him as a playable character.
He could support Nintendo's education games.

Having looked through some records apparently...you did. Oh well i'm sorry. There's only one squirtle pic so we'll have to be share for now. Well, I got the up B attack that you couldn't figure out. :)

Qdmbp: yes I did. However in no way am I a smash noob.

Thats what I can see him as right now. Not sure what real attacks he could do.. Throw around some numbers and signs that damage people.
