I don't get this thread's obsession with dreams.

Just putting that out there.
You should visit the Ridley thread. There's a dream like every 5 pages. Although I do think we all dream of Mewtwo's inclusion, just not in a literal sense...

Hey guys, I'm new here and I'm a massive Mewtwo fan! I'm loving the roster so far, all of the characters I wanted made it in! Except....one of my favourite pokemon hasn't been confirmed yet :( what are the chances that he'll make it in as a playable character?

99% Chance. :)
The one percent is banking on how insane Sakurai would have to be not to include him.

I like that number! I hope you're right :( he was supposed to be in brawl and is one of the, if not the most requested character :(

I say it's very, very high. He was planned for all the games so far after all (was cut very early on in 64, actually included in Melee, and has game files in Brawl). I have a feeling he'll also be at the very least considered this time, and with his extreme popularity and relevance I think that consideration will turn into playability.

So for some dumb reason I didn't get alerts for this so I missed a few pages :(


Yay Mewtwo broke stuff just like how he will break the faces of his enemies in smash bros and not break our hearts by not being included in smash.
I can't even count how many times smash boards has done this to me....bugs the living ____ out of me!

Yes! Also...think about it...they have to hype the game around release. Sakurai may be saving Mewtwo (and maybe Ridley but that's another discussion) for the final reveal(s). No other characters will hype the game as much as these two, especially Mewtwo since he's highly requested worldwide.

Yeah, and he is the most wanted pokemon ever (over jigglypuff and grovyle)

The thing I'm thinking though is that, with Sept 13th being 54 days away they could start revealing more and more characters. Assuming that Sakurai wants to reveal all before the 13th (even secret characters) and we'd be getting around 50 characters, I wouldn't be surprised if they start revealing veterans every other week (like this weekend at SDCC.) And newcomers, well, depending on how many of them there are left, at least two probably, there would be one in August and another in September. The last newcomer I think they'd show would be the best, which would be Ridley. Alongside Mewtwo? Maybe. I wonder if he's taken that in consideration because the WHOLE Smash community would EXPLODE.

I hope they reveal Mewtwo soon though because I am SOOOOO eager to find out if he's in. I'm pretty sure he's in, we just need official confirmation!

I don't think I could give a specific chance score at this point, but he seems likely, since he has basically everything in his favor and the "slot" argument took a hit with Lucina. At this point, it seems like a question of whether or not Sakurai believes Mewtwo is worth including, and I don't see any reason why he wouldn't. However, there is the possibility it may not happen. No character is a guarantee. But there is a lot in his favor.

Mewtwo has a 100% chance...I mean not being in that slew of Pokémon in the greninja trailer,Greninjas sillohette looking like Mewtwo,in summer of LAST year they were "thinking about it",most requests worldwide.I mean really?Also if I was in the e3 tourney I would've started a Mewtwo chant.
I have come to support Mewtwo.
What is that?!

Wasn't Sakurai's "thinking about it" comment said in 2013, which was after the roster was finalized in 2012.

I guess you would call it a fan art crossover? League of Legends x Pokemon. The character being portrayed is known as Syndra. She kinda has a similar back story as to Mewtwo. Society tries to control her so that her power doesn't grow. Her power keeps increasing exponentially and so she was isolated from society. Meanwhile Mewtwo was tried to be controlled by society for their use. Syndra is my favorite champion from the LoL and Mewtwo was my main in Project M, I just like the idea of the most powerful beings being together.

Did you paint this? This is awesome! I don't know who the other chick is though, but great piece! I'm an artist too, but I'm saving the art until he's revealed..
No its fanart made by Aocom. Sorry to disappoint. I didn't want to post the original image source because it would take up the entire page. So I edited the size and put it on imgur for personal use.

I'm surprised at how confident you guys are about Mewtwo returning. Do you think that he will return at the expense of Jigglypuff, or will Pokemon end up getting 6 reps?

Techincally Pokemon had 6 reps in Brawl. Considering that PKMN Trainer was 3 in 1, Charizard now has his own slot, and that Squirtle was theoretically scrapped for new gen 6 Greninja, I think that pokemon can have at least 7 reps. Those being Pikachu, Jiggs, Lucario, Charizard, Greninja, Mewtwo, and possibly Sceptile if they continue the pattern. Granted it does seem like a lot and over representation.

Only 10 more pages before we hit 150. Anyone else excited for that?
I... guess? Just hope people don't overly spam to get to that page or just to have a post on that page like (must as I hate to use it as an example now) the Ridley thread, as we'll get there soon regardless.

Love that pic Mansana, or at least the artistic direction that it took with Mewtwo.

I think we're gonna get six reps. The current ones plus Mewtwo and Jiggs. I don't see any more than that getting in.

Unless of course Jiggs is replaced with Mewtwo or Sceptile. :3
....I'd be ok with that.
I really don't think Jigglypuff is gonna leave. At least, I really hope she doesn't. I know the original 12 might not actually be untouchable, but I like to think that they are. I suppose if Mewtwo were to replace her, sure. But getting Sceptile/Grovyle instead of Jigglypuff, as much as I love Sceptile, would really rustle my jimmies.

Really?
Well, I do admit I'd miss her a bit, but think about it...wouldn't be cooler to have those guys as playable and then perhaps get Jiggly as DLC along with any other missing veterans?

The Jiggernaut is a character I've enjoyed in smash for years, cutting her for anyone other than Mewtwo would be devastating. Even if she was cut for Mewtwo it would be a double edged sword for me :( I want em both and I think they both deserve to be in at this point, and I think 6 reps for pokemon is fine. They technically had 6 in Brawl, plus it's Nintendo's second biggest IP, I think 6 is the perfect number. More than that would be too much imo.

Hopefully, there won't be any missing veterans aside from Snake, Ivysaur, and Squirtle. One of the reasons I'm so attached to the idea of the original 12 is because I started Smashing with the 64 version when I was 5 or 6. If one of them was missing, it wouldn't feel entirely like a Super Smash Bros game to me. I freaked out when I unlocked Mewtwo in Melee, but I've played Brawl so much more even with him not being there. So I think with this one, if they took the time to tweak Mewtwo and make him a really fun, balanced fighter and decided to just release him as free DLC instead of worrying about deadlines and just not putting him in the game, I'd be perfectly fine with that if it means Jigglypuff gets to stay. Plus I do really like playing as Jigglypuff.

I've got a sinking feeling about some of the Melee veterans. Falco and Gannondorf...where are those guys?

This did occur sometime after E3 2013.

However that means we're going to see 666 characters from 3 different series, I mean if both Mewtwo and Jigglypuff are in, then what about Zelda and Mario?

Oh and if this does happen, then Giratina totally hinted it.

And Metaknight. To be fair though, they said the same thing about Capt. Falcon until recently. They'll be in, no doubt. Unless they're replaced by newcomers from the same franchise which is unlikely.

As much as I'd like to see more Zelda characters, I don't know about the 666 theory, it's too limiting. And Giratina what? Never heard of that one.

Yeah, it would be cool to see Sceptile but it's hard to imagine Jiggs being replaced by him.

I've always thought of Wario and Yoshi as Mario characters (they may have their own emblems but they definitely rep Mario too, they appear in more Mario stuff than their own stuff xD) I think Zelda is fine at 5, it's not as big as Mario or Pokemon. Either way DLC, if they choose to do it, can add more Mario and Zelda characters!
