October: Mewtwo or Jigglypuff and Sonic
November: Zelda
December: Diddy Kong
If there will be SSB4 news in the next Nintendo Direct, then I expect to see one of those flashy trailers that we saw at E3 for a newcomer. I'm predicting that newcomer to be Little Mac.
The october part is what im thinking either mewtwo or jigglypuff and sonic because its confirmed that 2 charactera are possible per month

Jigglypuff is a species that's population is 1/4 Male and 3/4 Female. So Females ARE more common but you can call it whatever gender you want. Although I like to think that the Jigglypuff I play as in smash is male, I generally refer Jigglypuff as a female to avoid confusion.

I feel like if Mewtwo returned, he'd require a special video and wouldn't just be announced as a regular returning character, and if they are just showing off returning characters then I don't think we'll see him in October. Before hand it'd be super odd to consider seeing Jigglypuff but, it seems like the whole not showing secret characters thing is out of the window. Luigi we all thought just had a pass because of Year of Luigi. But with Toonlink shown as well now, yeah.

Correct sakurai clearly had plenty of time for mewtwos trailer wince hes more likely than jigglypuff to be confirmed first i mean he could have ben working on mewtwos trailer during the few months

Beside i really doubt newcomers will not be revealed till near the release day i mean after all there are newcomers who are going to be starters even though it looks like sakurai will reveal all characters in random order according to toon links reveal i mean i really doubt both links are going to be starters

Point I'm trying to make is, is that if the pattern of only showing off old characters is true, then we won't be seeing Mewtwo in October. Yes he technically is a old character but he would the be the first of his kind to be the first returning character that got cut from brawl. Again, patterns have been broken all the time so its not out of the question that we could be seeing a newcomer be revealed soon.

With the patterns being the way they currently are, Jigglypuff has the best chance of being shown in October, followed closely by Lucario, followed by Mewtwo or Pokemon Trainer, followed by any other possible new Pokemon, followed by None.

I was just pointing out that the Jigglypuff in Smash is always referred to as a he... c'mon, doesn't anyone read the trophies...

A Pokemon is the obvious choice.

Pokemon Trainer is possible---it would give Sakurai a plethora of potential picture possibilities.

Jigglypuff could work.

Mewtwo would build hype, but is that Sakurai's goal?

You sure? I looked up Jigglypuff's trophies for both Melee and Brawl, as well as it's description in 64, and in each and every one Jigglypuff is referred to exclusively as an 'it'. At least that's the case in the English versions, maybe it's different in the languages of other versions. Really, it's safe to assume that Smash Jigglypuff is female - officially 75% of Jigglypuffs are female, add to that the fact that Jigglypuff wears female clothing (including a hat belonging to a female trainer), it's about 95% probable that 'it' is a she. I wonder why people never pull people up who refer to Pikachu as a he, saying that in fact 'he' is a she? It's more likely that Smash Pikachu is female than Jiggs being male.

Hopefully Pokemon Origins, as well as the Kanto starters being in X/Y means that Red (Pokemon Trainer) will be confirmed in October, if not then November to celebrate Origins becoming available internationally. There's no better time to reveal him than during the next two months, if he's not revealed during during that time then I'll become even more concerned about him not returning. I'll be optimistic and say he'll be revealed in October, and since Toon Link broke the pattern of one newcomer per month I see no reason why Sonic can't be revealed as well.

Let's go a step further in predicting the next few month's of reveal and assume that, with so many high-profile games and game anniversaries, there will be two reveals each month until the end of the year:

October: A Pokemon character for Pokemon X & Y (P. Trainer, Jigglypuff, Lucario, Mewtwo, and/or a newcomer are all likely, and we don't know which Sakurai would go with); Sonic for Sonic Lost Worlds
November: Zelda for A Link Between Worlds (As somebody pointed out in another thread, the anniversaries of both the Japan and International releases of Ocarina of Time are the days directly before and directly after (respectively) ALBW releases, so a dual Zelda/Sheik reveal is relatively likely); Captain Falcon for the anniversary of F-Zero's release (which also, cooincidentally, is on the 21st, same as Ocarina of Time [Japan]) OR a Mario series newcomer for the International release of SM3DW (Toad?)
December: Diddy Kong for Topical Freeze (A DK newcomer, either Dixie Kong or King K. Rool, is also possible but an outside chance); A Mario series newcomer for the Japanese release of SM3DW (more likely than the above, as Sakurai has so far seemed to mainly time his reveals around the Japanese releases or anniversaries)

That's as far as Veteran series go, I am unsure of anniversary dates for likely newcomers' series.

Just learned something R.O.B could be confirmed in October the gyromite anniversary is october 18th in usa

With that said if a gyromite stage is confirmed thats almost a confession that R.O.B is coming back

I'm guessing Sonic and a Pokémon rep in October, considering we don't have the one character a month thing anymore.

Mewtwo

Man, I wish it was ROB. He's my most wanted veteran this time around

Other than Dedede but I have full confidence in Dedede returning

I think Jigglypuff and Mewtwo would be revealed near Pokemon X & Y release dates. But then again, R.O.B. could also be revealed (which would make sense because of the Gyromite anniversary).

Luigi's likely unlockable too, I think he'll pick Mewtwo or Pokémon Trainer for the X Y reveal given the Kanto Starters being given to you in X and Y. I hope for Mewtwo, but he may wish to keep that for later to build up hype, especially since Sonic's return would be a pretty big deal too next month. I don't think who's been revealed has any relation to who will be unlockable this game.

I think they need to build up hype now.

It's dead hype as far as I'm concerned

Love the prediction but for week 2 i think mewtwo or pokemon trainer is more premotional than jigglypuff in my opinion.

Digging the prediction could happen

i mean x and y you get 2 starters this time and the 2 starter is a kanto starter witch is what the pokemon trainer had in brawl all 3 kanto starters in brawl

And for mewtwo he was the first pokemon to introduce the mega evolutions we diden't know it was a mega evolution at the time and plus hes the only one with 2 mega evoltuions

And for ROB and Sonic ROB possible for Anniversary of gyromite and sonic for promotion of lost worlds

I think they would reveal by Japan date though. Plus no upcoming game is promoting R.O.B., so its we know till release.
Oh really then explain to me that peaches revealed one day before super mario brothers for the nes true release date for the whole world but still possible for rob to be revealed in october

Plus luigi was revealed for the usa release of mario brothers dream team

Its unlikely, but what if they revealed peach only because they revealed luigi, and thats why she did not promote anything.
She was revealed for the anniversary of super Mario Brothers nes one day before that came out

I have a suggestion.

Why not turn this thread into a game?

Users can post their guesses on the next character revealed. And When the next character is revealed on the Dojo, we can update the OP with the character revealed the users who guessed correctly.

I like this idea. We can guess the date and character, and the one spot-on, or the closest one in that matter, will get snaps.

I guess I will have to take Pokemon Trainer for Friday, October 11. :pt:

I'm going to play the price is right with all of you and say Thursday the 10th (though I think it'll be earlier) we'll get Mewtwo and Sonic revealed in a Nintendo Direct; however, as this is who's next I'm going to have to choose one to put my fictional money on, and I go Mewtwo will get the first trailer/appearance in the Smash trailer.

Jigglypuff or Pokémon Trainer

At this point i've given up on any newcomers being revealed at all. It's pretty obvious Sakurai has no intention of actually revealing anything interesting on the site. Not even any changes to existing characters
