Let me see here (Let's take into account ChaosZero, ShadowXOR and GameFaqs guy and ignore the 35 character roster for a second):
Mushroom Kingdom: 4-5 Reps (if we should keep Mushroom Kingdom's franchise amount the same as Melee)
-Mario
-Luigi
-Peach
-Bowser
-Bowser Jr.? Paper Mario?
Zelda: 4-5 Reps (see Mario)
-Link
-Zelda/Sheik
-Ganondorf
-Toon Link
-Vaati? Midna/Wolf Link?
Pokemon: 4 Reps
-Pikachu
-Jigglypuff
-PT
-Lucario
StarFox: 3-4 Reps (They won't get more than Mushroom Kingdom, Zelda or Pokemon for **** sure)
-Fox
-Second Rep
-Third Rep
-Possible Fourth Rep
(Toss up among Falco, Krystal, Wolf & ROB64)
Metroid: 3 Reps MAX (Let's think about this. Sylux and the hunters aren't characters, that's a fact)
-Samus/ZSS
-Ridley
-Dark Samus
Fire Emblem: 2-3 Reps (I doubt they'll remove Marth)
-Ike
-Marth
-Micaiah
DK: 2-3 Reps
-Donkey Kong
-Diddy Kong
-King K. Rool (if you think Dixie's going here, you're out of your **** mind)
Earthbound: 2-3 Reps
-Lucas
-Ness
-Claus? Porky?
Kirby: 3 Reps
-Kirby
-Meta-Knight
-King Dedede
Single-Rep Franchises:
-Pikmin & Olimar
-Yoshi
-Sonic
-Snake
-Wario
-Mr. Game & Watch
-Ice Climbers
-Pit
-ROB?
-Captain Falcon (EDITED IN, NOT IN ORIGINAL POST, MAJINNECRO SAID HE JUST FORGOT HIM)
I'm getting 41 Max out of this (the ROB in question is still subjective right now), currently. Actually, at this point, if we remove the questionable fifth reps from Mario, Zelda & Starfox, we get 3(9). A Very GOOD 3(9).
This is a VERY good roster, created by MajinNecro the EXACT SAME WAY the horrid 35 character roster was compiled. It also takes into account the realization of another prophet, one who predicted on GameFaqs the 'Mushroomy Kingdom' stage (name and all) in ALOT of detail.
This was posted in another thread, but I felt it deserved it's own. It has just as much chance as the other 'compiled' roster as being real.

EDIT: ZOE MY TEH GAWDSH!!!!!1111!!!ONE!!!SHIFT+1!!!!!!!!! TEH CHUK NORE-ISS OV TEH ZMASH KAPTEN FELCUN IZ NOHT TEH OHN TEH RAHSTOR!!!!!!ZOMGUH!!! Seriously guys, i'm sure MajinNecro just made a typo forgetting to put Falcon.
BESIDES, THAT'S NOT EVEN THE POINT: THE POINT IS THAT THE EXACT SAME LOGIC AND METHODS THAT PUT TOGETHER THE 35 CHARACTER ROSTER CAN BE USED TO BUILD A MUCH BETTER ROSTER. Go ahead and throw the Falcon on there, and the logic/method still works. Which is the point.

Oh my, did I forget CAPTAIN FALCON??? Please kill me :D
TC, nice job, I didn't intend for this to be a leak of any kind, however (not to TC, to posters within), but yeah, I just used logic, and the three leakers mentioned above. So, if DrClaw411 could just edit it so Falcon is in there (and subsequently fix that it would have 39 characters, and 42 "total,"), then yeah. Everything will be fine.
ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS NOT A LEAK OF ANY KIND. DrClaw411 is just using MY example of using logic to fabricate a 38-40 character roster, using three prophets (JUST LIKE CHRONOBOUND) and using them to make a roster. I am not claiming to know anything about the Brawl roster. All I happened to do was smash those three prophets into a roster, and speculate on. The point of this thread, if I'm reading DrClaw411 correctly, is to prove that ANYTHING is possible in Brawl, and you shouldn't chalk it up to a 35 character roster that everyone is passing off as real, when it hasn't been confirmed yet.
