Maybe one of Shulk's taunts could be "Pesky thing!" But without actually doing Shaker Edge xD

Maybe a similar idea has come up, but I was thinking of a Final Smash right? Sort of spoilerish?

Shulk can see the future right? So what if when you activate the final Smash, Shulk sees a vision of the future.
How would that work you say? What if for the next 5 seconds, you become invincible(Like PIt's FS in Brawl) After the 5 seconds are up, everything that happened in those 5 seconds happen again, but in slow motion, so you can like plan out a strategy or something? it sounds weak but if used right it could be deadly. (Note the other players can't move when everything is in slow motion

Man, if it isn't Shulk who gets revealed on Monday... I'm gonna feel really bad for you guys XD

That said, all signs would seem to point to Shulk, and even if it isn't him, it's nearly all but confirmed that he's in anyways, so.... congrats either way! Must be nice to have one of your most wanted so close to being confirmed... must be nice... *wistful sigh* :p

I recently started watching a Xenoblade playthrough to get me hyped for Shulk. Let's just say that when I get to see Shulk in HD I will be fangirling so hard!

I could start listening to Xenoblade songs on YouTube and the time would just slip away.

The battle tunes are brilliant but the environment music is just magical. I get warm feelings whenever I listen to Satorl Marsh (Night) or Frontier Village (Day).

Oh look what I found

http://themudkipman.tumblr.com/post/79471220605/looks-like-shulk-is-in-smash-bros-wii-u-3ds-neat

Kinda skeptical, though, seeing as how he's wearing goggles while also wearing his default attire. I'd expect him to wear goggles and some different clothes as some alternate costume.
Saw that a couple of weeks ago and flipped my lid. Guess it happened after the Palutena leak and the Chrom leak.
There was even one of Luigi fighting a Mewtwo on the Dr. Wiley's Castle stage in the Wii U build ... not sure I believe it but yeah ... there is either a leaky faucet or some skilled/bored/artistic folks are bored and heartless haha.

Seriously can't wait until Monday morning now. Gonna have to wake up early and make myself a nice breakfast to sit down and watch this with.
#MonadoMonday will be glorious haha

Seriously, we just need to focus on Monday. These leaked photos have been proven fake.

Well since we really don't need to have a "Who's going to main Shulk?" thread, I'll just go ahead and ask right here...are you planning to main Shulk? Secondary? Or are you just excited to have him in the game?

As I've stated before, Shulk is going to be my main alongside Ike. Good character or not, I'll make the most out of what I can with all the other Xenobrothers of the Bronado.

Main main main main. I don't care if he is the worst character in the game tier-wise, I wanna main.

I'm planning to main Shulk and Greninja. No doubt about it. And between those two, I'll likely prioritize Shulk.

I don't care if Shulk is the best character or the worst character in the game. I've already planned that he is going to be my second main. (my first main is going to be Luigi as always)

I can picture Moday's reveal now. Someone in the shadows holds a long glowing object with a round light in the middle. Could it be the Monado? Is Shulk confirmed?

Nope, it's Chrom holding the Falchion.

I'm confident he won't end up being the worst character, but I get your point and I'm with you on that.

Yeah, I'll likely be prioritizing Shulk over Ike myself.

There's a scene I remember from a Simpsons treehouse of horror episode where the earth is doomed and the most important people are evacuating the planet. Homer and Bart stow away on one of the spaceships but it turns out it's full of annoying celebrities singing annoying songs, so they eject themselves. Then said celebrities crash into the sun.

We're the annoying celebrities singing about Shulk.
The sun is Monday.
Homer and Bart are last minute Shulk deserters.

We need a gif.

I will main Shulk, don't care if he's the worst or the best character too.
He will probably be my secondary, since I would really like to main Bowser this time, since he is finally faster to play. Hate playing super-slow characters; I like more balanced ones.

EDIT: Speaking of character speed, how do you think will Shulk play? Faster, slower, lightweight, heavyweight, strong smashes, fast smashes, good aerials, bad aerials...

I think Shulk will be a medium-fast middleweight character with stronger, but slower smashes and great aerials. His different Monado arts could also make him a more control-based character. I am so excited to see how he plays!

Time for one of my favorite overused Xenoblade jokes.

If Shulk isn't revealed on Monado Monday, it would be a... tragic decision.



Anyone else wish that song played more often? Its almost under appreciated as a result since hardly anyone hears it without delving deep into the game as well as gets overshadowed by the typical tracks.

I rep based off of franchise love (Fire Emblem, LoZ, Star Fox, Kid Icarus and Mario). Since Fire Emblem is my favorite Nintendo franchise in Smash, they always get the main slot (don't mind my character icons, I just use them to showcase my favorite franchises :p). With Xenoblade stepping in Shulk can step in as main. Ike for FE, Ganon for LoZ, and Falco/Wolf for Star Fox, Palutena for Kid Icarus and Bowser for Mario. I'll probably have to limit my secondaries...but I fanboy too hard :laugh:

'Tis true. Luckily, Youtube is always here to save the day :)

Ha. It's funny because I always thought exalted falchion looked slightly like the monado. Sorryfordoublepostnotusedtophoneohgoddontkillme.

I'm glad that I wasn't the only one. When I first saw the Exalted Falchion, I immediately thought of the Monado.

WATCH OUT! FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING AND XENOBLADE CHRONICLES SPOILERS!



















And both swords slayed a god in their respective games! Although the Exalted Falchion can't kill Grima, he can only kill himself by suicide... which happened in the "sacrifice" ending because of time paradox. But hey, Falchy is still useful for weakening Grima.

Oh hey add me to the support list? I've been a supporter since before Smash 4 was announced! I mained Falcon in brawl despite him being bad, so Shulk is my sure-fire main now :]

24 hours left. Normally I'd say it's gonna be a long wait, but World Cup Final is today and I'm looking more forward to that anyway. Not that I'm NOT excited to see Shulk, though! A character announcement after World Cup final and some EVO finals? Good day for me!

Argh.
How am I going to wait an entire 24 hours?
At least I feel pretty good that it's Shulk this time.

Oh, and I'm going to be pretty indifferent to Shulk's place tier-wise, unless he's somehow Brawl Ganondorf levels of awful (though I seriously doubt he'd be that bad). I'm definitely trying him out, though I don't know if he'll be my first main. From the demo at Best Buy, I might try Greninja out first. I really liked how he played. That, and Mr. Ninja Frog is one of my favorite Pokemon along with Mr. Aura Dog.

Really hoping Shulk is announced tomorrow, if the only valid possibilities are the characters leaked by Gematsu (otherwise I would hope for Ridley ^^). I am curious as to how his gameplay mechanics will work (with the Monado and all). Plus, while I like am fine with the Chorus Kid being in Smash, revealing it tomorrow wouldn't be that exciting. As for Chrom, well, revealing him tomorrow would be the ultimate hype killer. So yeah, give us Shulk!

"Mr. Ninja Frog" is not male, though or at least that was never confirmed. :p
