Oh no doubt, most people I've found are receptive to idea of Layton in Smash, but he wouldn't be the "crazy hype" pick like Sora would be for a decent chunk of the fanbase.
76: Yeah okay. I would prefer Spring Man because im basic but she may as well be mascot #2 so fine.
But not enough Fire Emblem? ;P
Pretty okay with this all things considered, and a couple who I actually like (Rayman, Ahri, Dante). Not my absolute dream pass, but I won't complain.
You know Morrigan Aensland from Darkstalkers?
There is never enough Fire Emblem.
The closest thing furries and fans would get of Krystal.
I would be extremely excited, as minmin and geno are two of my most wanted along with phoenix wright, ill be sad that dante got in over him but dante is still a cool choice that i would be fine with. Rayman im mostly okay with, if it's him or crash i would definitely prefer rayman. Doomslayer would be really cool, not much to say about that. I personally dont like mobas at all but ahri looks cool i guess. Overall, compared to plant and fp1 this would be miles better imo.
From what I've seen Morrigan is actually quite comfortable with who she is. It's Lillith who has the "hates her true nature" part, and that's because her purpose is to become one with Morrigan, which would ultimately mean she would stop existing.
That wouldn't work with Urshifu because it can't actually switch forms in the games.Alright so I proposed the idea of a stance character awhile back, but now that I think about it Urshifu is another possible candidate for that archetype that might have a shot if Nintendo really wants to advertise for Pokemon Sword & Shield Isle of Armor DLC by including it's mascot Pokemon.
Essentially he's a Kung-Fu bear with 2 different fighting styles, one focusing on hard hitting sting strikes and one on flowing rapid jabs. Although not how it exactly works in the game, perhaps in Smash he could change his fighting style on the fly with a down special or something of the like.
Not too fond of his design or the idea of a promotional DLC character, but I still think their is a possibly for him to be included and have an interesting mechanic. What do y'all think?
Well i guess i highly disagree. I think cacomallow has a good chance at being real and i think geno is one of the most likely additions.
*creative license intensifies*
The king of Bājíquán fighting is already in smash as an assist trophy.Alright so I proposed the idea of a stance character awhile back, but now that I think about it Urshifu is another possible candidate for that archetype that might have a shot if Nintendo really wants to advertise for Pokemon Sword & Shield Isle of Armor DLC by including it's mascot Pokemon.

76: Ok
Geno wouldn't excite anyone other than hardcore Smash fans. Also, SE has other characters that are more likely.
At the same time, those examples given don't have a defined gimmick like Urshifu, who was hyped up for having 2 forms you need to choose between*creative license intensifies*
Saying geno would only excite hardcore smash fans sounds a little strange as you make it sound like only geno fans would enjoy it. I didnt know who terry was and hes probably my favourite challenger pack. And of course wether or not there are more likely square options is subjective
I think it's more likely that we'll get a Pokemon from the base game than one from the DLC.Alright so I proposed the idea of a stance character awhile back, but now that I think about it Urshifu is another possible candidate for that archetype that might have a shot if Nintendo really wants to advertise for Pokemon Sword & Shield Isle of Armor DLC by including it's mascot Pokemon.

There's 2B, Lara Croft, Neku, Sora, and other FF characters to choose from.
This is Smash we're talking about. You can make a character true to the functionality of the games they come from while still taking some liberties to allow for unique gameplay options.
I was a bit late on the draw for editing, but this is what I had to add:
Although, perhaps it would be better to add Kubfu, and have him evolve into one of the Ushifu forms either depending on how you play, or just by letting them pick one when evolution is ready. Could be quite interesting, though probably more work than the character is worth.
Honestly, not really. Basically every argument here relies on some degree of "dude trust me lol". We can look at precedent to figure out general trends and then use those trends to see how well each character goes with or against the trend, but there's still some degree of trust involved.
I mean, heres where it gets really subjective, as in my opinion the only square enix characters i think can get in are geno 2b and sora(yehiknowhesdisney). I also think chrono trigger and twewy content is possible but indont see a character. I also dont see another ff character happening like seph, tifa or lightning
I don't think that we're even getting a Pokemon at all, because of the Spirit Event.
That's a pretty good comparision too.
Oh, forgot that Lilith's the one who had that (I knew Morrigan's the comfortable one though). Never been that hugely into Darkstalkers, and most of what I know of Morrigan comes off her crossover appearances.
I'm guessing the general consensus here and not giving my own opinion. Keyword being guess:
Idk, TPC's shown that they're stingy when involved with Smash so doing something that goes against their marketing tactic sounds like something they'd get pissed at
76: It's a sound choice. Makes sense but I would prefer Spring Man.
Yeah I could see The Pokemon Company being pretty restrictive on how Urshifu is depicted in Smash, thet probably would shoot down fighting style switching, even if it would make for an interesting fighter imo. Maybe if Sakurai could convince them but IDK.
I was mainly bringing him up as I wanted to talk about stance changing characters, rather than his chances.
You say this every time SwSh is brought up.
I don't really think the timing is an issue. 3H came out only four months before SwSh and still managed to get a spot in the first pass.
I'd actually buy it. There's a good mix of gaming eras represented, it has newcomers highly requested by Smash fans, and none of them seem like they'd retread old ground previous fighters have already covered. As a whole it's better than the 1st pass. Ahri is the only low point for me, but even still I prefer her to 3/5 of the 1st pass's characters.
Ah so that's who she is. I kept seeing pictures of her and now I know. Not interested in characters like Palutena or Rosalina so she does nothing for me. Pretty much meh tier.
TPC's likely the reason we don't have proper Shiny alts as that'd taint the rarity of them or something after all. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they're the reason you can't hit Pokeball summons at all which is ****ing garbage
I don't know about that, but the second idea I proposed doesn't go against what they were going for at all you start as the base form, and then after meeting some requirement (likely filling an Exp. bar) you can pick one of the evolved forms.
Palutena and Rosalina don't have a heavy (or any really) emphasis on trickery though so it may be a bad comparison. To be honest, I think the only character like that is oddly enough, Sonic, though I doubt she'd play anything like that.
I swear I remember being able to hit
in Melee.
I've only played Melee for like 5 minutes so I can't speak about that, though I remember someone here saying you could hit Giratina when that's blatantly false as I tested it a few minutes ago. Pretty bull**** you could smack around ATs for nearly 6 years but Keldeo is allowed to just Do ThatI swear I remember being able to hit
