I don't know if I missed the conversation about Yellow Devil in Lucario's pictures, but I was just watching GameXplain and they got me thinking about the fact that Mario Mega Man and Lucario are all REALLY close to each other while attacking. I mean I don't really know people's hitboxes down to a science or anything, but should that be possible without them hurting each other?

Maybe I'm just overly hopeful that he's not a stage hazard after all...


Judging off Brawl's hitboxes you would think Lucario and Mega Man would be hit by Mario's nair. Mega Man looks like he could be setting up an attack as his Mega Buster is not present. Some questions are, what is Lucario doing, his position looks like an air dodge but he appears to be charging his aura so it looks like he's firing Aura Sphere, but wouldn't that hurt Mario and Mega Man? It also appears as if the aura is surrounding Mario's lower body, why?

Lucario is clearly air dodging which explains why he's not getting hit. As for Megaman I have no answer for that.

Or the 3 are in the same tag team, another possibility.

Then why is there that blue sphere between Lucario's hands?

Perhaps Yellow Devil actually is a boss. Or maybe, just maybe, he's a stage hazard in normal play. But he's becomes a boss during some single player modes. Just throwing that out there.

But shouldn't their colours change? Mario would logically have his blue alt or Mega Man and Lucario would have red alts.

That's what sounds odd about it. But then, why Lucario isn't hurting them?
Well Lucario's aura seems to be surrounding Mario. Maybe it doesn't cause flinching anymore?

EDIT: But then why wouldn't it surround Mega Man? Are they on the same team but Mario isn't?

I like how everyone is just accepting that Diddy Kong is on his way.

It'll make it so much more delicious when he throws us all a curveball. :troll:


edit: Not that I'm not hoping for Diddy as well, he was my first main in Brawl.

He does seem like the most obvious choice. Or at least something DK related seems obvious.

Doesn't look like it to me. Just looks like his Aura. That looks nothing like his Aura sphere. Unless he has 2 moves that use aura sphere which would be dumb.
Aura sphere is looking very different to its Brawl incarnation.


Of course in the Yellow Devil pic the aura looks nothing like the aura sphere here, it is possible Lucario has only just started charging it up and is at low damage.

Considering that Lucario's aura focuses on his hands it's probably aura.

And as for why they arent hitting, its pretty obvious that sakurai would pose them into the pictures. It would be nigh impossible for him or even three people to get them in those exact positions if it was during an actual game.

Other wise almost all the pics would look horrendous.

I like how I just went into Brawl and created the same picture. Look even the sphere is there. LOL I literally just air dodged with Lucario.

Well that explains why Lucario isn't being hit but if the hitboxes are similar to Brawl's than really Mega Man should be hurt by Mario's nair.

well it certainly looks to be entirely identical to brawl's air dodge for him, so i'm gonna go with that. i'm guessing it's just that lucario's aura is positioned that same way as it was except it trails behind from the point between his hands paws, which is why it appears to "surround" mario.

Alright, so the airdodge explains Lucario. But if he bothered to take the pic in teams with colors disabled, why did he make Lucario airdodge instead of also doing an attack or something?

Guess it's just coincidence.

Cause that's the look he was going for?

Well that's my point, the pic seems to me like the look is "alright let's all get him" so having him dodge isn't exactly in line with look.

Like I said though, obviously just a coincidence, just thought it was worth getting clarification on what was going on.

No, I mean, like, Lucario looks like he's rearing back to launch some kind of big move in the context of the picture. Maybe none of Lucario's aerials fit the look of the picture.

The creator has said he's increasing Lucario's Aura output this time.

I feel more and more like I'm the only one that doesn't want a Diddy/Dixie tag team. I mean I wouldn't hate it, but I like Diddy as is and I'd rather they be separate characters, especially if they don't feel too different from other partner fighters.
I'm with you, buddy. Diddy and Dixie are definitely unique enough to have their own movesets.



Judging off Brawl's hitboxes you would think Lucario and Mega Man would be hit by Mario's nair. Mega Man looks like he could be setting up an attack as his Mega Buster is not present. Some questions are, what is Lucario doing, his position looks like an air dodge but he appears to be charging his aura so it looks like he's firing Aura Sphere, but wouldn't that hurt Mario and Mega Man? It also appears as if the aura is surrounding Mario's lower body, why?
Isn't it possible that Sakurai "tightened" hitboxes for a more defined gameplay experience where moves actually look like they connect? Or is it impossible?
I'm not that huge on Smash tech, especially hitboxes, so I wouldn't know.

Edit: Incredibly sorry for the double post, I had no idea I was doing so.

That would make for an incredibly picky game.
