Do mine eyes deceive me? Someone else who doesn't think we're getting a new Pokemon on the base roster
Oh, are we starting a club?

After it was established that the newcomer pool would be small I figured that the novelty of them adding in a recent Pokemon would be outweighed by them actually selecting characters that were heavily requested. It doesn't hurt that the gimmick of the game upticked Pokemon's roster count more than anything else, with or without counting Squirtle and Ivysaur separately.

I don't. There's too much mixed marketing imo for Pokemon right now to the point where I don't think Sakurai will choose one for the base game.

I'm even skeptical on DLC and was considering swapping it out for Eldegard of some 3 houses character.

At this point we have all of gen 7, we have let's go bringing back gen 1, and we have the basis for the 2019 game being made.

They've all been made alongside eachother so I don't think Sakurai is going to opt for a new Pokemon base game. The choices are to many and he would have to predict well what the fanbase would want.

As for my other roster calls,

  • I don't give a flying flip about Ashley on a personal level, but do you see Robin's position in the art? I've read some pointing out that it looks like he's reading to someone, and if he is that's clearly not a posture meant to be reading to an adult. And I gotta keep in mind all the Badge Arcade Ashley spam, the fact that I'm preeeetty sure she's hella got fandom, and the fact that BOTH Ashley and Kat & Ana are AWOL from the current Assist spread. I could see them revamping Kat & Ana's designs if Ashley got in, especially with the ridiculous attention to detail and polishing this time around. And she doesn't seem like she's hurting for an easy unique moveset either.
  • I know a lot of folks are skeptical of Verge and for good reason, but I will say that their suggestions make sense. Simon Belmont is basically one of the last quintessential NES characters not to already be in, and Isabelle is already an uber-mascot for one of Nintendo's top selling franchises to the point that she's in Mario Kart getting slammed in the face with Blue Shells. It's logical and what he's spat out so far strictly Smash wise is conservative, which is the total opposite of most Smash leaks. Hell I'll give him props for actually trying unlike most people regardless of whether he's right or wrong, most fake leaks are pretty cookie cutter in format.
  • Mostly I've got my eyes towards potential DLC, as if the game gets it then that's where the bulk of newcomers are going to be added in from. In this territory I'm personally thinking of Octolings (hey we already payed for DLC of them once) and Dovahkiin (not even likely a consideration during primary development but significantly more reasonable post and likely to get a "wait what the hell?! reaction from people that few other characters could barring some sort of legal nightmare). Both kinda unlikely but seem like good fits for DLC as opposed to being anywhere near the base game.

It would be fun to FOOS Mario off the stage.

I admit, my futa puns were horrible.

I am probably the worse at making puns in this thread.
