Just found a decent fan-made victory theme for Shulk, and I don't believe I've seen it posted to here before.
Too long and too MIDI for my tastes. But the melody could work.

I mostly mean the melody, yeah. I just can't see any other track in the game working as well for a victory theme. I imagine in the game it'll use actual instruments and be amazing. Just like the original.

Yeah, exactly. If it's just shortened a bit and played with actual instruments it could sound really good.

That's pretty much exactly what I expect his victory theme to be. The secret area theme would work, but this would work better.
Call me particular, but i'm really impartial to both of these. They just seem a bit too... I dunno... passive?
Now I understand Shulk isn't exactly and aggressive person but i'm just not sure either the secret area theme nor this one are perfect for him.
Then again, I can't suggest something that would work...

This.

[GALAHAD FORTRESS SPOILERS] Also, I tried playing Riki's theme in the background of:

The fight against Mumkhar

I laughed much more than I should have

You know Shulk has an awesome shot in Smash when the hardest parts to think of are his freaking victory theme and how he enters a stage.

I still think they might do something generic for his entry. Like a flash of light from which he emerges or something

Regarding the stage entering thing, I thought of something good.

First of all, Shulk jumps down on the stage.

Kinda like 00:45-ish in this video, but without the monado activated.

Then, he activates the Monado like this:

02:00-ish.

It's not a perfect idea, but it's a start.

Maybe he drives in on that tank-thing that Fiora used when she attacked Metal Face?

Alternatively, maybe he could warp in as if he used a warp panel in the game.
I could see that happening. Just look at the Fire emblem characters and Mario + Luigi.

Hey guys I'm relatively new to this thread, but am a dedicated supporter of Shulk! I haven't read up on some of the past pages so I'd like to ask what you think his FS could be?

Me personally I could see something related to the Monado giving him a vision. His eyes start glowing blue, his sword grows longer and he dodges any enemy attacks for a whole 20 seconds. This could be a good representation of how his visions and the Monado work in the game, add to that the fact every single sword user in Smash has some sort of sword combo or single sword strike as his FS, Shulk could bring something new. What do you think?

He just falls from a really great height, takes 9999 damage when he lands, pulls out his Monado, and collapses, dead.
C'mon, it's happened to y'all before.
Never happened to me, I'm just MLG like that. :troll:

it happened a lot to me

Welcome! It's great to see some new faces around here. I will warn you though, there is an awful lot of insanity within this thread. Proceed with caution.

As for your idea for his Final Smash, that's actually quite interesting. It's a better representation of the visions besides the standard counter. Some other ideas I remember being discussed were simply have Monado Buster, or to have a Chain Attack with two other randomly selected party members. There would be different effects depending on who is included, but overall a very similar outcome.

Not sure what you're referring to... do you mean the chain attack?
Say Dunban were included, he could use a lot of combo attacks that do high damage but have less knockback on the final hit. Someone like Reyn however could have slightly less damage but a much larger knockback. Obviously it would need a bit of thought but that's just an idea.

EDIT: Hang on, I see you're referring to the insanity part... Yep that makes sense

Yeah, it's one of my things now. As soon as someone mentions how insane this thread is, I post one of my gifs (Preferably one of Duckson or Dittson) and ask "What do you mean?"

Thank You. I have been cringing a bit at some Dickson gifs the past few pages, but I've seen worse things in other threads so as long as you're not shipping 20 foot monsters with humans I'm cool. Having the Monado Buster as FS would be cool, but I would prefer if it'd be a standard special instead with it getting longer through damage received/inflected or time since its pretty accessible in the game.

The Chain attack is brilliant, but I don't know how Sakurai could make it work. Sure we've seen Robin/Chrom team attack as FS, but since the chain attack goes slow motion and each character gets a move in maybe they'd go with something easier( or just turn it into a :4megaman::4falcon:cinematic). Here's hoping for it tho.

Can we collect all of them together? I don't want any of your previous masterpieces getting lost in further insanity ^^

Haha, we'd never do that...
Really...
Oh god... @ TitanTeaTime TitanTeaTime

Yeah, it'd have to be a cinematic or something. It'd be cool if you could have an impact on it but it'd kinda be over the top.

I think he'll activate the monado while saying "I will change the future" or something along those line

Imagine if Shulk entered the stage in a mech from X. It would make no sense but it would be kinda funny.

Or he could ride in on a chariot carried by a group of Nopon slaves.
