Look carefully at the background of the left-middle in the above image. There, you see Trainer on a platform.

That platform isn't there when Trainer isn't. It's now confirmed that Trainer gets his own safety platform for moving stages.

Hazaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It has to be this way because some boards are too exciting for him to stay in the background. For example, he can't stay in the backgrouns of Shadow Moses because he'll get crushed by the falling debris when the Metal Gears destroy the front of the building. In Rumble Falls, he needs a platform so he won't die by the screen scroll.

SUCCESS!

 

[Akiak]

Thats a platform alright.

Nice find!

 

[Night Avenger]

XD LOL at PKMN Trainer dying by the acid... I saw this too a while ago...

 

[Superninjabreadman]

And so ends one of the most discussed issues on smashboards...


Great job though, I dont really like any of these stages, Im happy enough that Hyrule is back. so I didnt look in too much detail.

 

[AustiniusRex]

well played, i noticed too and almost made a new thread. glad I found yours first. :-D i'm looking forward to trying him out.

 

[m0dredus]

I keep looking, but I don't understand. I suppose its chunk of land that is only there when PT is in the match? Even so, it just looks like he's on a chunk of rock. I suppose thats what you meant by "platform"?

 

[Polostick]

i owe you big that was a big discovery. i have to tell some one

Hey all you people, hey all you people, hey all you people come listen to me(L)ee

also i was gonna question Frigate Orpheon. when the screen rotates 180...

 

[CommanderGrit]

but the platform is there when the PKMN trainer isnt!

 

[W.Jr]

thx for the info good find

 

[CommanderGrit]

thx for the info good find

except, he didnt find anything, the platform was still there!

I was actually wondering how Pokemon Trainer would handle the Metroid level... I had always thought he would hop on his bike if stage was a moving stage, but didn't have too many pits... like, he would jump the chasms, if there were any. Maybe use HM moves to clear obstacles in the background, like a safari traveler in a rain forest with a machete?

 

[LarkOhiya]

UMMM.. thats not the same platform at all.

 

[Bacon Man11]

I wanted PT to die and suffer in a burrning pain. Oh well...

 

[Polostick]

explain this...

 

[xixDaShrimpxix]

but the platform is there when the PKMN trainer isnt!

i agree with LarkOhiya, that's not the same platform that he's standing on. i think a new platform appears just for him. that one circled in the pic is too far away, he looked much closer in the other picture.

 

[Polostick]

he doesn't even show up on deflino plaza

 

[Your Hero]

I was hoping for him to be on a flying pokemon, but a platform works just find. Way to go :]

 

[Polostick]

The thread is called transportation on moving stages not bad stages. he dissapears on moving stages like halberd and delfino plaza. he is on the parts where the stages dont move and after seing some videos, i think that he just dissapears on rumble falls

 

[Robling]

Haha, well I suppose that's a bit better than swimming in acid.

 

[ngtm]

whats funny is after ptrain gets defeated he stays in the background with his head hanging in shame until the end of the match

 

[MzNetta]

But thats not even a moving stage....

 

[vastler]

i saw a video in youtube when pkmtrain fight in that meteroid level.
there was a flying steel platform in the background with the pkmtrain standing on it (it was so far you can barely sees it)

 

[Wolfblade]

****, and here I was hoping to see him sprinting full speed along the F Zero track to catch up to the battle.

 

[ngtm]

I wanted PT to die and suffer in a burrning pain. Oh well...

that's just about the most stupid, naive, and pointless expression of emotion that could have transpired on this board....

 

[ngtm]

YES that would've been amazing

[DoH]

it's something sakurai put in so you can't dash dance

 

[ngtm]

it's something sakurai put in so you can't dash dance

i dont know if thats good or bad...wow something blatantly put in the game to make a melee strat impossible to do is weird...
