If you had to ADD 20 characters to Ultimate this time, who would they be? (Part 2)

[Mogisthelioma]

Reverse psychology!
A follow up of my original thread, now Sakurai tells you that you must replace the 20 characters that you removed with newcomers of your choice. Again, you can only do 15 or even 10 if you feel like it. You can list out their names or use icons if you want to.

Follow Sakurai's rules: It must qualify as a video game character (No manga/cartoon/movie/book/etc. characters), it should be (but doesn't have to be) original, and it shouldn't conflict with another character. I'm ignoring the rule that it should be from a decently popular series, since these are your dream newcomers. You can pick any 10/15/20 newcomers if you want to (or even more), just they must be video game characters. Please name the series from which each one of your newcomers is from.

If you think one of your choices is unreasonable/far out, you can explain why you made the choice if you want to. You can also choose to add a character that is currently an assist trophy. If you want to add an echo alongside one of your current fighters, that does not count toward one of your 20. Absolutely no criticizing someone else's decisions.

2. Shovel Knight (Shovel Knight) Although I think he's at home in Rivals.
3. Samurai Goroh (F-Zero)
4. Ashley (Warioware)

8. Springman - Ribbon Girl as echo (Arms)
9. Isaac (Golden Sun)
10. Bandana Dee (Kirby)
11. Adeline and Ribbon (Kirby)

13. Skull Kid (LoZ)

19. Crash Bandicoot (Crash Bandicoot)

[YoshiandToad]

Since I went a little overboard and cut 25 in the last thread I'm hoping it's okay if I'm including three echos with the base 20. If not we can cut Ribbon Girl and make Aloan Meowth and Toadette alts for their characters instead.

Three Mario, Four Pokemon, Five Zelda(it's long overdue), two Kirbys, two Xenoblades, two ARMS, one DK, and four smaller series.

Considered Tails and Bomberman but figured I'd go all Nintendo and return to the games "Nintendo All Star" roots.

[SmashBro99]

I'll try to make it somewhat realistic and , so no Lanky Kong over Dixie or Hawlucha over a more likely candidate. No Knuckles because Tails, Shadow and maybe even Eggman would get in before him...

New reps for featured series:
1. Waluigi () It's time, Waluigi time.
2. Captain Toad () I'd rather have Paper Mario, but they may botch him like they did his series, and a playable Toad would be neat.
3. Skull Kid () No need to explain, he's cool and wanted, also villain.
4. Dixie Kong () Makes sense to round up the series.
5. Krystal () Wanted her in so bad, badass female spear fighter....no another FE sword guy, Japan is lame sometimes when it coems to their sword waifus..
6. Tails () Deserves to be with Sonic, definitely more than the edgehog.
7. Incineroar () Read the next one.
8. Sceptile () Now we have a water, fire, and grass fully evolved starter as stand alone characters, while Charizard fits perfectly staying with the others with PT.

(I cut Pichu and Jigglypuff so...)

Now some newcomers from a series new to smash (yes I know Golden Sun had music and AT in Brawl, I clearly mean playable characters):

9. Isaac (Golden Sun) Amazing potential to not be another sword guy.
10. Sora (Kingdom Hearts) Maybe less likely than the others on this list but he's a perfect smash character.
11. Banjo Kazooie (<--) Needs to happen.

And some echos, or semi clones, or alts, whatever you feel like, just to have more variety (I love the idea of alts when it makes sense for the movesets to be the same):

12. Ken Masters ()
13. Shadow ()
14. Protoman ()
15. Ms. Pac Man ()
16. Felix (Golden Sun)
17. Riku (Kingdom Hearts) OR Aqua.
18. Blaziken () I don't like Blaziken much (#TeamInfernape!) but I'd be ok with this cross series echo for Captain Falcon. Makes more sense than Ganondorf did...they really screwed over the demon king =\
19. Dry Bowser () Just too easy and would please people.
19. Hitmonchan () Yes echoing Mac, because I only have a spot left I want some luls. I'd play him...

I don't like ARMs, or other series that I didn't give more reps to *shrug* although I think a rep from there is a lock as DLC.

 

[MrPowerfulJeans]

That's not what I wanted to do... I didn't want to post it yet...

Ah, whatever, I'm gonna have to work with it...

[AlphaSSB]

I feel like I'm one of the few that'd have a harder time adding twenty characters as opposed to cutting twenty. Either way, here goes.

Promoted Characters
1) Krystal
2) Zoroark
3) Midna
4) Waluigi
5) Captain Toad

Other Newcomers
6) Slippy Toad
7) Peppy Hare
8) James McCloud

11) Shadow
12) Skull Kid
13) Sylux

18) Chibi-Robo
19) Dixie Kong
20) Chorus Kids

 

[I'd Negæte That]

RIP Me MTGO/MTGA probably doesn't count as a real video game in most people's eyes so I can't really use that IP. Anyway, here goes.
1. Master Chief. Unironically. (Halo)
2. Rundas (Metroid Prime 3. The series still needs more reps IMO)
3. Kumatora (Mother)
4. Paula (Earthbound)
5. Waluigi
6. Krystal (The series needs another rep, and I think the crossover w/Starlink could potentially keep the series IP alive)
7. Skull Kid
8. Magolor (Kirby's Return to Dreamland)
9. Lubba (SMG2, another meme character)
10. Bandana Dee
11. Obligatory Banjo-Kazooie
12. Decidueye I guess
13. Soren (Fire Emblem Something)
14. Poo (Earthbound)
15. Roll (Megaman)
16. Incineroar I guess
17. Ashley
18. Peppy Hare
19. Slippy Toad (another meme)
20. Leon (?)

[Kevandre]

I'd probably get flack for all the Fire Emblem in my list but come on you guys... It's such a rich series with a ton of potential...

1) Ephraim (Fire Emblem Sacred Stones)

2) Hector (Fire Emblem Blazing Sword)

3) Niles (Fire Emblem Fates) (Nina as an alternate costume)

4) Incineroar (Pokemon S&M. Dude shoots fire out of his dong. Tell me that doesn't sound hilarious in Smash)

5) Paper Mario (Paper Mario. OG moveset, fully utilizing partner characters from first three games)

6) Shovel Knight (Basically just copypasta his moves from Rivals of Aether)

7) Shantae (Finally playing a Shantae game and I'm all in on her for Smash)

8) Octoling (Splatoon. But only if Marina gets an alt costume)

9) Impa (Hyrule Warriors specifically)

10) Celica (Fire Emblem. Robin echo. I may heavily dislike her as a character but I love Erica Lindbeck so put her in there)

11) Slippy Toad (Starfox. He's gotta be like a turret-based fighter)

12) May (Pokemon. She functions like Pokemon Trainer, but has a Snivy, Quilava and Swampert, all with unique movesets)

13) Masked Link (Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask. Again, a lot like Pokemon Trainer but swapping masks between Deku/Zora/Goron)

14) Dr. Eggman (Sonic the Hedgehog. A semi-echo of Bowser Jr. A lot of the same movement stuff but with some significant changes)

15) Dixie Kong (Donkey Kong Country 2. Original moveset preferred but she can be a Chrom-esque echo I guess)

16) Rayman.

17) Chibi Robo (I feel like Zip Lash existed purely to give him Smash Bros moveset potential, just like Punch Out Wii did)

18) Mike Jones (Startropics. He'd be fun in general but mostly I want the series to make a return a la Kid Icarus)

19) Rundas (Metroid Prime 3. Lucas/Ice Climbers are bad ice-based characters. Rundas can be a very good ice-based character)

20) Liu Kang (Mortal Kombat. I'd like to see MK get something because I feel like it matters more than Street Fighter? And Liu Kang, being the main character, probably works the best for Smash Bros. Also I'd rather see Rundas do ice so I didn't pick Sub Zero)

 

[Meritocracy]

Not a massive gamer, but let's see how far we get before I run out of steam/start adding non-video game charecters

[Michael the Spikester]

-Banjo-Kazooie
-Black Shadow
-Bio Rex
-General Scales
-Kanden
-Medusa

I think...I think that's it from me...

 

[Exalt4747]

Klonoa
Shovel Knight
Incineroar(he's not in until he's in)
Serperior
Zeraora
Garchomp
Cynthia (Fire Emblem)
KOS-MOS
Morrigan (Darkstalkers, hell, I'd take like half of the cast)
Bandana Dee
Daroach (I'd take just about any Kirby rep)
Final Fantasy rep (If pressed I'll say Terra)
Nia (XC2,

Spoiler

would switch between forms

Alucard (Castlevania)
Maria (same)


This is hard, and not definitive, but I'm really struggling with getting to 20 here.

 

[BronzeGreekGod]

Wow thats a lot of characters to add. Well here we go (in no particular order):

1. Geno
2. Isaak
3. Skull Kid
4. Banjo-Kazooie
5. Rayman
6. Chrono
7. Springman
8. Bandana Dee
9. Lara Croft
10. Scorpion
11. Takamaru
12. Nightmare
13. Loyd Irving
14. Diablo
15. Tracer
16. Ray
17. Shovel Knight
18. Ganondorf with an OOT moveset
19. Masks Link
20. Goku

 

[Admiral Pit]

Hmm, that's a super hard one given my picky nature.

1: Phosphora
2: Medusa
3: Monster Hunter (as in a hunter, better than MvC's). 4 outfits for male/female respectively, able to choose from different voices.)
That's pretty much the only ones I care about.

4: Decidueye (I don't mind him, but they should approach him right, and make him shoot arrows.)
5: Inceniroar (I don't mind him, but they should approach him right.)
6: Shantae (might as well give some ppl someone they want... She's one of the few I have no negativity towards, well, anymore.)
7: Dr. Eggman (should be in a machine like Jr, except heavier and different)
8: Arlon (From KIU, I like him)

I have no interest for anyone else from the top of my head (most of the others I have some negativity or bitterness towards). My apologies for not reaching the 20.

 

[War Anvil]

69-71: Misty (Pokémon) (Starmie, two other Pokes that are preferably Water)
72: Mini Kangaroo (1950s Nintendo toys)
73: Shantae
40£: Louie (PIKMIN)
56£: Celica (FE Echoes: Shadows of Valentia)
74: Edelgard (FE: Three Houses)
75: Tethu (Ever Oasis)
76: Earthworm Jim
77: Dixie Kong (Donkey Kong Country)
78: Porky (EarthBound)
79: Mona (WarioWare)
80: Andy (Advance Wars)
81: NiGHTS
17£: Tetra (Zelda: Wind Waker)
82: Elma (Xeno X)
83: Rex (Xeno 2)
84: Marx (Kirby)
85: Phoenix Wright (Ace Attorney)

You read it right: Misty's the OTHER three-in-one, "hard transformation" character a la Pokémon Trainer. What an ULTIMATE spinoff of the same concept!

 

[splat]

Some notes:

1. Decided not to include third party reps.
2. I've refrained from Waluigi because I feel like he's in series limbo. It'd be really awkward for him to rep Mario while Wario does not.
3. Toadette is an alt.
4. Paper Mario flies under his own banner - though his symbol is really similar to the regular Mario's.
5. Dixie, Waddle Dee and Ninten round off their series really well, I think.
6. I decided on a common infantry unit for the entire Wars series.
7. Poor Alph is bumped up to be an Echo. Ninten is one as well, obviously.
8. I haven't made an icon for Rex.
9. Dr. Lobe would make a wicked WTF character.
10. In a perfect world, Mach Rider is a fresh remix of Captain Falcon's moveset - which is awesome.
11. Order by existing series (with Paper Mario being near Mario and the Wars series in the Fire Emblem spot), then alphabetically for fighters from new series.
12. Tabuu reps Smash.
13. I forgot Spring Man and cannot be bothered to put him in. I'd probably swap him in in place for Ray or Dr. Lobe.

[Vanguard227]

So first off, the 20 fighters I would remove from the current roster (Definitely not based off of personal preference, but more about who I believe would be realistically cut if there was an actual 20 fighter purge.)



Now, my list of 20 fighters I'd add to Smash, in no specific order. (Based purely on my wish list, and not realistic.) Since I removed all echo fighters in my remove list, all 20 newcomers will have completely unique movesets.

Skull-Kid (Legend of Zelda)
Black Shadow (F-Zero)
Isaac (Golden Sun)
Crash Bandicoot (Crash Bandicoot)
Spyro (Spyro the Dragon)
Rayman (Rayman)
Bomberman (Bomberman)
Nightmare (Soul Calibur)
Shovel Knight (Shovel Knight)
Geno (Super Mario)
Dr. Robotnik (Sonic the Hedgehog)
Shantae (Shantae)
Decidueye, or Incineroar (Pokemon) I can't decide which one I like more. XD
Elma (Xenoblade)
Travis Touchdown (No More Heroes)
Dixie Kong (Donkey Kong)
Bandanna Waddle Dee (Kirby)
Crono (Chrono Trigger)
Doomguy (DOOM)
