Project Pikmin
Introduction
Hello, some of you may know me from the KC:MM forums, if not, then...I'm Matteron, I hack for a hobby, this is my first official project involving SSBB. Project Pikmin is inspired by the fact that eventually someone one will snap after working for somebody for a long time, in this case, some Pikmin have decided to be free from Olimar's rule. The pikmin's move set will be based on all pikmin, meaning that the attacks will not be varied between all the pikmin's abilities.

Extra Information
~ Pikmin will be over Pikachu
~ Pikmin will be real size, meaning that the model will not be scaled in anyway.
~ Light weight(can be knocked off stage at about 60%)
~ Fast(A little faster than Pikachu)
~ Weak hitter

Move Set
In "{}'s" are the color of pikmin the attack is based on.

Jab ~ {any} A simple downward swipe with its stem.
F-tilit ~ {any} Pikmin rolls foward then back.
D-tilt ~ {any} Pikmin swipes its stem downward.
U-tilt ~ {any} Pikmin does a short jump and spins around.(multi-hit)
F-smash ~ {purple} Pikmin smashes its stem down.(Heavy Damage)
D-smash ~ {white} Swipes its stem to both sides.(Gives flower)
U-smash ~ {red} Pikmin does a short jump and flips backward.(Fire Damage)
N-air ~ {yellow} Pikmin lets out a small electric surge from it's body.
F-air ~ {any} Rolls its body.
D-air ~ {purple} Slams downward, technically it's a ground pound.
U-air ~ {white} Lets out a poisonous gas from its flower.(gives flower)
N-special ~ {many} A charge move, the more you wait the stronger the attack is.
Low Charge - A normal slap with its stem(like forward smash except weaker)
Middle Charge - Shoot's a small bolt of electricity(exactly like pikachu's)
High Charge - Surrounds itself with fire for a couple seconds
Max Charge - Releases multiple poisonous "spores" that span most of the stage
F-special ~ {any} Launches forward, if it catches onto an opponent it do its classic pummel.
D-special ~ {white} Digs up a berry and eats it to restore very little damage.
U-special ~ {any}It spins its flower around like a helicopter until it tires out.

Play Type
The pikmin is meant to be a light weight combo hitter. It is made to be hard to hit to make up for its weight.

Personally, I feel it should go over Olimar, but, I support this project :3.
Why should it go over Olimar?

Also, I'm looking forward to this. I saw the post on KC-MM the other day and was interested in hearing more, so this is good to see.

The main reason I made it over Pikachu and not olimar is for:
1. You can now take revenge on Oimar ;)
2. Its better for the moveset.

Well, it may just be me, but, I don't like Olimar that much... It's just a personal opinion lol. Also, they have the same "symbol". If it goes over Pikachu, wouldnt the symbol change for ALL pokemon characters, that is, if you decide to change it.

err... I can't tell if this is epic or just cool. I mean, it's Pikmin, but... sort of not Pikmin.

Won't an Ike Fsmash just kill everything anyway?

Yes, it would, because then he doesn't have Pikachu's neutral special or any articles to work with to make it. When making a character, the series icon is pretty low priority.

Does anybody know how to edit hit boxes? If you do please pm. The reason why, is because blue's hit boxes surround the whole stage, you can hit his no matter where you are...

lol thats weird, it must be a bone being too big, or it could be a psa problem

I have no idea if those two things I said are true or wrong either

just throwing some stuff in here

also, how do you change pikmins? I saw in the vid only the red pikmin :O?

would be awsome if you could have the 5 of them at the same time, and change them with a command, idk, I love the original 3 pikmins overall :)

if he's replacing pikachu he might not get all 5 pikmins since pikachu only has 4 custumes

I do know how to edit hitboxes a little, but for GFX I don't know anything, but atm I'm depressed with Golem, and I'm not hacking till the next BBox update and after the version get a mouse thingy to make smoother animations

If anything the white pikmin has to be in the list of pikmin

I'm sure all 5 models will be available for download. You'll just have to select which 4 you want available.

@Fen:
Exactly...
anyway, my wii stopped reading my sd card after I formatted it...so...progress will be slow
What did you format it as? I think the Wii may only read SD cards formatted to FAT 16/32.

For me, Brawl wouldn't load the SD (Gecko applied GCT codes just fine) because it was FAT, not FAT32.

Just make it FAT32 and make sure you don't have an SDHC/don't **** anything up and you'll be fine.

Since it worked before, it's obviously related to the formatting. It may not even necessarily be in the wrong format right now, though, but just corrupted in some form. I've had issues with my SD card where it seemed to function normally on my comp, but the Wii was convinced it was corrupted. Backed up the files, formatted it, and then it worked fine.

I know, I'm pretty sure it has to do with the fact that I'm formatting it on a mac...wait, does anyone know how to force the wii to format a sd card as if it were the first time putting it in?

This sounds like a cool idea from what I have read so far. I am a bit worried about the Down B, it could be hard to balance or it would become a move to use after a kill to heal up only a very small % such as 15% (not what I would like to see, just what I expect form a move like this). I do think a cool idea would be to do something with the flowers on the pikmin's head, starting as a seed then growing into a flower. Not really sure what though, kind of a reverse pokemon trainer (from Vbrawl) and the pikmin gets stronger as the seed grows or maybe his B moves become stronger. IDK, just a though.

This. (about the leaf/bulb/flower)

Getting stronger after time makes more sense since they die fast and if they manage to survive to get the flower they will get an advantage in the Field.

start with the flower (for now) after he's done, do the flower part ^^

Ok some bad news...Ayzer's computer broke, so our psa'r is down...and since my SD card broke I will need some one to be a temporary tester. Yes, you will be able to get all the files for pikmin before any sort of release, but I need someone I can trust that will do what I ask them to do.

I know that InTrepidCognito will do a fine job, because I have seen his work, but GeminiCrossFade, I don't really know much about you send me a pm and we'll talk.

I wish for the testing job. I am quite good at pointing out problems and explaining possibilities.

Sorry to somewhat necropost, but what happened to this project? I know Matteron is working with some other things now too, but have this just been totally dropped in the meantime? Is it going to be picked back up? I just had to ask because it had so much momentum before, especially since animations were very simple to do (relatively).
