How cool would it be if Skull Kid was in SSBB?

If you're talking about the pic I posted, I didn't draw it. I have no talent, lol. I found it on google images, and the artist signed the his work if you're really interested.

Skull Kid would be awesome in SSBB but I'd rather see him as an AT/Boss.

OK, since you're new here, I have to tell you: EXPLAIN YOUR REASONS OR YOU WILL GET FLAMED. This is SmashBoards, so don't act like a nOOb when you aren't one.

Yes................................
I don't see why not. It could make a pretty interesting character and he is not lacking in moves or fans. I hope he is atleast a boss or an AT.

He'll keep on updating. Just this time it will be unlockables and he won't be holding back anything.

Sakurai kept updating the site after Melee came out since February, like the Bassoonist guy said; he will focus on the unlockables and won't hold anything back. Anyways, Skull Kid would be cool, but as you can tell from my sig, I prefer Vaati.

Majora's Mask was an incredible game, if we can't have Skull Kid as playable I'm at least hoping Great Bay returns. This time with a day and night cycle and showing the moon coming down in an actual three day cycle with the stage shaking and everything.
That's how the one in Melee should have been.
I know many people hate that stage, but Majora's Mask needs SOME representation!

Why would people hate that stage anyway? It was so fun making Tingle drown.

Because it's a pain to play on... lol. It's really easy to fall of the stage and then there's the platform on the right that if somebody knocks you under the stage you'll bounce off and die instantly (sorry I'm not good at explaining, I hope you know what I mean.)

I do. I thought that was what made the stage unique. I still love it.

needs a bump.
Indeed.
So, I've got a question. Should Skull Kid move like GaW or Mewtwo? Floaty or choppy. It varies from scene to scene in Majora's Mask. I imagine him more like GaW than Mewtwo, to be honest. Still, thought I should get some other opinions.

I imagine him as a rickety kind of walker, like his head moves back and forth. And when he runs, he just swings his feet out in front of him.

Smash Journeyman
yes its either like kraidguy or floaty.
i can image it more floaty but his taunts could be the thing where he shakes. his scream. the 2 faires swarm around him. he does gandorfs taunt but the the magic stuff from mm around him.

No, Clock Town's clock tower should be his stage. It will be normal first, like it is shown most of the time, with rooftops on either side of it. Then after a minute, it flips and is the area where Skull Kid summons the moon, and is completely flat. Then it goes back through time and ends up on the first part again.

Do you guys remember the very first part of mm right after the skull kid steals your horse? It`s the entrance to the cavern that you fall in. I think that should be his stage. The music should be the opening music and then the s.k chase music.
KraidGuy
Smash Ace
You mean the Lost Woods should be his stage? Well, it's not very well known, so I would think that the clock tower would be a more appropriate stage.

clock tower oh boy would i love that stage.
but that would mean 3 zelda stages.
but oh well. im sure suraki can figure something out.
i doubt that melee stage meant anything anyways.
although its my second faveorite.
used to be my faveorite and almost tied first

Brinstar Depths was my favorite. But that's off topic. I don't think Sakurai would count the Melee stages for these new ones, so we have a good chance of getting the clock tower.

At the peak of the Clock Tower right, I think I remember that place being the most memorable.
Anyone who had played MM will remember the location as a stage
Not to mention, any fight on there would be epic.

But there has already been a stage from Majora's Mask, remember? Great Bay wasn't very well known, but Sakurai put it in anyway.

.....yeah.....hm.
well still if we get skull kid.
we will be having the clock tower.
...hopefully.

Clock Tower would be epic, although I wouldn't count out Lost Woods. It was where he first appeared, and wasn't the origin of Skull Kid a child who got lost in the woods and turned into an imp? Possibilities for stages could be the bridge from OoT where you get the fairy ocarina, or... well, that's all I can think of. I'd prefer something from Majora's Mask. If not Clock Town, I would like Snowhead to make an appearance, because it could make a really good stage.
I might as well post this while there's still some activity here.
Revised & Completed Moveset:
In this moveset, Majora’s Mask is actually the true power behind the character, and the Skull Kid acts only as a puppet. I made Skull Kid into a very VERY unique character with a dynamic playstyle.
At the start of the fight, you play as Skull Kid, who is weak and fragile, yet annoying and deceptive. However, Majora’s Mask begins to slowly glow over time, becoming a brighter and brighter yellow. When the mask is fully charged and ready to be released, the eyes on the mask will light up and the little tendrils along the sides will come alive and begin to wave up and down.
Your goal as Skull kid is to make use of avoidance and stunning moves to incapacitate your opponent until Majora is at full power. Once it has reached that point, activate Majora’s Mask by pressing Down+B. The Mask will detach itself from Skull Kid’s body, float up and sprout arms and legs, becoming an incarnation.
Watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9-4zppf5NM
The now helpless Skull Kid falls to the ground, unconscious after being drained of all of his power and acts as a non-combative object. Just be careful, if his body fails to land on solid ground, he will fall and die. Majora himself will not die, however, he will not be able to return back to his puppet to regenerate his power after he is weakened.
In his incarnation form, Majora will be exceptionally fast and powerful, with many juggling combos and powerful knockbacks. He also has an awkward fighting style -- bouncing and dancing while moving about. Due to this, however, after a short period of time, Majora will become exhausted and very weak, retracting his arms and legs and becoming the floating mask, unable to perform any attacks. You must guide Majora’s Mask near enough to Skull Kid’s body and Press B+Down to re-sync the characters. (Note: Majora gains the glide ability while in its mask form, to help it recover if it loses power when off the stage.)
The only way to earn a KO on this character is to kill Majora itself, whether attached to the Skull Kid or not. Majora’s Mask takes all of the damage and it transfers over to the Skull Kid when reunited.

Um it's probably the only way Skull Kid has any chance of getting in.
Skull Kid himself is pretty boring otherwise, without the Mask and Majora, he is nothing...
Besides he would need a unique moveset for him to stand out from all the other potential character options, something that gives Pokemon Trainer and Ice Climbers merit.
