Infinite Swim Time?

[Princess Diana]

In brawl you can swim, I think squirtle should have infinite swim time cause... He's a water type pokemon and he's turtle. It wouldn't make sense for him to drown.

So yeah and how will charizard swim with that whole tail goes out and he dies thingy?

 

[tirkaro]

I'm supposing it would work like this

squirtle: can swim infinitely
Ivysaur: swims normally
charizard: swims for either a very short time or not at all.

 

[Rx-]

That would work well, but I think Sakurai will overlook this, and all the pokemon will swim normally. The whole swimming issue is shady anyway. I'm very curious about it. Remember: if it worked the way that the OP described it, then strange things might logically follow, i.e. Charizard can "swim" in Norfair lava.

Maybe Red's squirtle is ********? Also he might not know surf or dive.

you always learn surf before waterfall! that way your in the water in the first place!!!!

 

[FaceGuy]

Unless you teach Surf to one Pokemon and Waterfall to another

 

[ZenJestr]

as for Charizard's tail going out in water...on the surface he keeps his tail out and when he falls its burning so intensely that it doesnt go out....

and I do think that Squirtle should swim forever...

 

[Darkurai]

Charizard will melt if he goes into the water.

 

[Chepe]

In one episode of the anime, Ash's Charizard was launched by another into water where he was completely submerged, tail and all. When he came back up, his tail flame was fine when he poked it out of the water...

I think all the Pokemon will swim like anyone else, and Charizard still be hurt by lava. But, since Ice Climbers were given special traction that let them walk normally on slippery surfaces, perhaps he will give Squirtle and Charizard those appropriate features...

Its hard to say at this point, but the possibility is certainly there.

Charziard= best recovery out of water (he can glide, and might have 6 jump!), worst in water
venusaur= both are avg. (perhaps he has a tether recovery with his vines?)
squirtle= worst recovery out of the water, best in the water

It would make sense...

But water isnt a common element in stages, so it would be kinda unfair to give Squirtle only good recovery in the water... And IVYsaur does in fact have a tether Up B, look in the Dojo...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I used to NEVER give my team HM's until they added the move deleter person

 

[MAtgSy]

But Surf's pretty much the best water move anyway!

For real, 90 power 100 acc is way good.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

For real, 90 power 100 acc is way good.

Well I replaced it with something better...

So obviously there is a better move that doesn't have that bad of accuracy

...Don't remember what though

 

[Lgndknight]

That makes absolutely no sense! It's far too bad, might as well just HM slave a Birbarel, thats better than teaching surf to something, then giving some poor, undeserving pokemon WATERFALL.

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

same concept as flying. pit cant fly forever. squirtle cant swim forever

 

[Steeler]

It'll just be the same. Charizard can keep his flame alight in water and Squirtle...well iduno but it doesn't seem like you'd want to stay in the water for long anyways. Seems like it leaves you open to attacks from above.

yeah but he went up fast and it possible that his tail is hotter than a charmander

Waterfall is a good move... =\

 

[SonicLuigi]

i think that infinate swimming sounds right but about charizard and ivysaur...thats a new story

 

[PSIguy89]

ummm just wondering somthing.....when and where did it say that you can swim in brawl??? or is everyone assuming this? i'm just confused

 

[HaXer]

I have nothing another idear

There is three choice:

1. It can't go swim or just little time.

2. In it tail there shoiel or something like that.

3. Chari afraid water or just die is it touch that.

 

[VagrantLest]

Waterfall is a good move... =\

Yah wtf, Surf and waterfall are both great. Those and Hydro pump are like the only water moves used in standard.

Hydro Pump?

There's at least one video floating around where Pikachu can be seen floating at Delfino Plaza, and I think it was confirmed by some people at E for All. You can also see it in one of the screenshots from the update for the Summit.

 

[Galvanic]

What I'd like to see in Brawl; Charzard reacting to water the same way everyone else does to lava (ie, bouncing on it while taking damage)

 

[RenegadeRaven]

Hydro Pump?

Nope

Water Spout/Water Sport(Can't remember which one it was)
120power?
100acc
5pp

swimming, dont think it exists. after that one picture of king dedede in the water and everybody thinks you can swim. that was king dedede right before he DIES! if they have swimming, it should be an ability only givin to a select few, like gliding was givin to charizard, pit, and Meta Knight.

Meta Knight Rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mr.Victory07]

Well maybe charizard would react to touching water as a normal person would to touching lave and vice-versa. He may be unnafected by lava (in the anime he falls right into a volcano and comes out fine), and me he would just jump up at touching water like aMario would to touching lava.

No, you're wrong. It was confirmed at E for All that you can swim in certain stages with water like Delfino Plaza. Go watch some videos of the Brawl demo and get some info. before making a bold statement like that.

Also, have you even read Gimpyfish's thread?
(1.) If yes, he stated that you could swim for a limited ammount of time, and all characters could do it (Even Sonic, although he's not supossed to be able to).
(2.) If not, I suggest you do. It has tons of info. and impressions about the Brawl demo at E for All.

Edit: Here's a vid that shows some of the characters swimming. http://youtube.com/watch?v=bIE6MA-zzw0(About 1 minute in.)

 

[Mysteryfox1]

I think charizard just swims smash doesn't have logic since when can people jump twice and in melee a thingie the IC'S sent didn't melt in bowsers fire breath and I don't think that thunder attacks do more damage on squirtle then like ivysour
