I think it was done to emphasise how expressive everyone is in this Smash Bros. title. However, his personally so far seems an awful lot like Ash's Charizard from the anime. I sort of dropped off the anime shortly after those days, but I do still remember Ash's Charizard quite well in it. The whole idea of being a free Pokemon, to do as it pleases, and fight its own battles is emphasised in the trailer in my opinion. Again, similar to Ash's.

Of course, there's no concrete evidence to back this up, but it does draw a line for me.

Totally assumed this thread was about discussing how good we think he will be. Lol...

Either way, Im down for keeping the positivity.

I just finished watching Pokemon Origins for the first time. I do have an aversion to the original animated series, so naturally this one flew over my head.

After seeing that, I hope to see more expression from Charizard. I can't see him being anywhere near Dedede as far as range of emotions are concerned, but there is certainly no need to be so stoic. Charizard is without a doubt a creature... a warrior of fury and determination. That said, I am sure even he can relish in a victory, be caught in a state of shock, express disinterest, etc.

I know this post may make it sound like I do not understand the topic, but what I am getting at is this neutral expression will make it so shifts in emotion can be more tangible. Kind of like those people IRL who always look angry all the time. We already got a character who is always scowling... Ike of course! What matters is that Charizard is capable of looking angry when he needs to be.

Optimistic Charizard needs a character icon. It worked for the glorious substitute doll, so why not?

Why isn't there a picture of optimistic Charizard in the op!?!
How are people supposed to know what he's talkin about?
Also a comparison of brawl charizards mouth would be nice.

Thank you for mentioning this. I am a lazy OP, and I get distracted by a great many things. There are now pictures of optimistic Charizard in the OP now. :bubblebobble:

This might possibly the greatest veteran related thread since Ike's confirmation.

Optimistic Charizard!

Did someone make a joke about rocks / Stealth Rock already?

I like it cause it reminds me of the smug, cocky Charizard from the anime and that was the reason I loved Charizard in the first place.
