Munchlax eats the Competition away!

[kirbykid]

Dude this update was awesome, it gives alot more info than you think

1: It confirms 4th gen, Drifbloon may have implyed it but this update destroys any doubt.

2: It deconfirms Munchlax while boosting up the probability of Lucario as a player

3: It confirms a returning item

4: It about Deconfirms Lip. Lip isn't a character without her stick. If she was a character than I don't see why they'd put her item up for anyones use (It's like making Aether an item).

5: a possible remedy to item haters. This of course will only be true if the player can change the occurance of pokemon and items like My music. If so you could make Munchlax appear more to even out items (This added with very low would make item grabs a rarity thus it would take more skill to aquire an item). Of course that's assuming alot.

6: It shows the interactivity of the crowd. I was suspesious at first but this clearly confirms it. AC characters will follow the action watching the player. their fashial expresion must alo change by the interactivity of the battlefield because in any active screenshot, The AC characters host a more dynamic expression.

7: Priority. Does anyone else notice how much the Smash Munchlax looks like the coloseum munchlax?
That's not saying alot.

The Coloseum pokes look a little rushed to some degree. I've actually noticed the same with all the pokeball pokes and the stadium pokes too. The only exception are the PC pokes and Deoxsys (I think that they probably considered him as a possible PC). I'm thinkingthat they're just taking the coloseum designs from Game freak and slightly boosting their graphical and physical feel. This would be faster but still seems a bit sloppy. Lets just hope I'm sadly mistaken.

I wouldn't complain about the graphics. You should know that the game is played zoomed out. Not only will you not notice the "low quality" models, but you'll be busy fighting someone else. Also, it's all about animation. Model detail creates believability in screenshots, but animation creates it in motion.

I'm getting hungry. :embarrass

I love that this gives Lucario a better chance. Lucario Fanboys/girls unite.
I also like that they are using forth gen Pokemon. It's also kinda cool that they'd choose to use Munchlax to confirm the 4th gen. Munchlax was one of the first fourth Gen Pokemon revealed, along with Bonsly, Mime. Jr, Weavile and Lucario.

I also like how the background characters react to the fight. Very nice touch.

The lip stick will be turned off like it always is in my game. I hate it. Terrible Item, IMO.

 

[MDupont]

Those who say 4th Generation isn't in the game can shut up now.

 

[FrozenRoy]

Nice update, if items make it into Brawl tournies(Possibly due to a future feature), then this will make things more interesting.

 

[WarxePB]

Having Munchlax PB'd increases the chances of Lucario appearing as a PC; it also increases the chances of the other 483 Pokemon that haven't been de/confirmed for Brawl.

 

[the grim lizard]

An item that eats items?...wow...

 

[BigRick]

If Munchlax eats a Pokeball, is that considered cannibalism?

rofl

Btw, why ppl are speaking about other Pokémon like Lucario and stuff... this thread is about MUNCHLAX!!!

So plz Lucario fanboyz get back to your thread b4 Munchlax eats you!

 

[Kabyk-Greenmyst]

This fits Munchlax so perfectly. I don't know much about the 4th generation, but Munchlax is one I know. And walking around eating items is the perfectly flavorful thing he can do.

If he gets enough items, he should evolve like that one guy said, and then just turn into a Snorlax and end with what Snorlax does best (i mean in Smash, not sleeping).

 

[Eight Sage]

Since we don't have full proof that was Drifloon in the background of Pokemon Stadium 2...

4TH GENERATION CONFIRMED!

Yes, because he was in the movie...

IMO Pokeballs pokes are from gen. 2 - 3 - 4(movie).

 

[Gargomon251]

Yeah, too many people are saying Lucario, (And I hope he's playable too) but there's plenty of other pokemon from DP out there....He's not out of the woods just yet. So what happens if Munchlax eats a Party Ball or a bomb? And will he knock items out of people's hands? Will he move like Marril or actually jump around? Munchlax is one of the slowest of all 493 pokemon after all... And I am hoping you can change the occurrence of items individually, and not just on/off. Although it's highly unlikely every single pokemon/AT will have a toggle.
I'm also hoping there will be a Special Mode where there are Smash Balls rapidly appearing. In fact, maybe you should have the option, like Bomberman64, to have different Sudden Death options, like bomb rain or just spawn a single Final Smash: First one to grab it wins. Maybe have a move where ONLY FSes do damage?

 

[Drake3]

So...anti-climactic. But whatever, at least this pokemon does something unique.

 

[PRINCESS PEACH 777]

what does he do any ways

 

[Sky-Kitsune]

Munchlax is awsome in general, so im glad he made the cut as a pokeball, and also the fact that the 4th generation has been comfirmed. If someone called him forth which he then ate the items that they desperately needed? Heh heh, he'd be much more of a laugh to have in the battle than wobbuffet anyway.

 

[Kirby knight]

Sure Lucario's not out of the woods yet; however with his competion sent to the pokeball's (Deoxys and Munchlax) that does raise the hope that Lucario will be playable in my eyes.

What did you mean by "but there's plenty of other pokemon from DP out there"? No other D/P pokemon even comes close to Lucario's popularity barring Munchlax and look what happend to him.

Anyway Munchlax looks to be quite annoying I do wonder if he'll change into a snorlax depending on how many items it eats.

[Wii Wanderer]

Does this prove that Lip's Stick is in SSBB?

 

[PRINCESS PEACH 777]

yeah i guess so

 

[Wii Wanderer]

I kinda thought that Munchlax was a chracter til I saw that there wasn't a "Warning! Challenger Approaching!" sign.

 

[Wii Wanderer]

Snorlax eats a lot to so why dont they put him to eat all the items. I guess they wanted a variety.

 

[PRINCESS PEACH 777]

when i saw the yellow thing i thought it was a video

 

[Wii Wanderer]

They are probably going to do 1 pokemon a month and 2 this month since they didn't do one in August.

Tom da Bobm Nook!

 

[Wii Wanderer]

Bomb* ( I put bobm)

 

[Wii Wanderer]

This is changin the subject but I just got promoted from smash n00b to smash child and I don't know how.

 

[PRINCESS PEACH 777]

lip's stick is in brawl
i wonder if a lip gloss will be in brawl

 

[Wii Wanderer]

Munchlax is evil! He's a cannibal because he can eat pokeballs! I guess the items he eats go to the Devil assist Trophy! *Laughs*

 

[Wii Wanderer]

Lip gloss isn't for me.

 

[Wii Wanderer]

What game is Lip's Stick from?

 

[falcofuku69]

wii wanderer, ever heard of the edit button?

 

[PIT_IS_BACK]

Having Munchlax PB'd increases the chances of Lucario appearing as a PC; it also increases the chances of the other 483 Pokemon that haven't been de/confirmed for Brawl.

OKAY, having Munchlax PB'd increases EVERY OTHER SINGLE pokemon chances of being a PC. NOT just Lucario

[/thread]

 

[cast man232]

Does anyone really notice the difference of when he eats the item,and when he hasnt eaten it yet?

 

[Wii Wanderer]

I am not wii wanderer, falcofuku69, I am namechanger. I hope Lucario is playable if he's in brawl. Cause I was hoping Deoxys, Munchlax, and Groudon were playable

 

[Princess Diana]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

*runs off in tears*

 

[Undrdog]

My guess also is that he'll evolve into Snorlax after eating a certain amount of items, then proceed to own us like has has in games past.

 

[Naucitos]

Does anyone really notice the difference of when he eats the item,and when he hasnt eaten it yet?

yeah, i caught that, i also caught it saying 'hes hard to stop' think he'll be attackable, or possibly change into snorlax and do something else when he eats enough items?

 

[Lupo Aro]

Way to stretch the screen. =/

Munchlax seems about as useful as Wobbuffet was in Melee.

 

[Wreked]

Do you think muchlax would still be a pokemon character if you have items turned off?

Or was sakurai smart enough to prevent this. I think it would be kinda funny. Like he looks around and doesn't see any food.

Uhm, with items off, pokeballs wont appear, thus Munchlax won't...appear.

-.- Wow.

 

[Wii Wanderer]

How can muchlax even appear if the items are off and he comes out of a pokeball?

 

[Takeshi245]

The update was okay. A pokemon that just eats items isn't much of an assist, now is it?

Edit: Wii Wanderer, if items are all off, then that means assist trophies are off, too. Assist trophies are another form of items. Munchlax won't appear in such conditions.

 

[Wreked]

-.- Wow.

I know that but with pokeballs only what would he do.

Sorry I just worded that wrong.

 

[Wii Wanderer]

Neither is the Devil character, now is it.
