You just stated that you dislike him for being a "bad character" without any legit explanation. Out of context it seems you were just referring to his Tier List placement/metagame in SSBM.
Agreed. It seems to me that a lot of people don't argue based on logic, but more of "i don't like that character". That doesn't mean he wasn't a well liked character. I myself want Mewtwo and Roy to come back. I don't really want Dr.Mario back, even though i liked him in Melee. (or i guess i WOULD take him back if they added another Mario character with him.)
PTs' Pokemon are from first gen, but his design is 3rd gen, so you could say he's a 3rd gen rep. Also, it's been pointed out in the past that Sakurai doesn't reall think of Pokemon reps in terms of Generations.
Neither do the people who make Pokemon, actually. That was one of their goals supposedly with the sequels to black and white. To blur the lines between the generations. Read this on IGN haha. I think it's only a fan thing to split the pokemon based on what games they're from.

Very few people liked him. He was basically added as last-minute roster filler, and was cut with no second thouhgts, unlike some other cut characters who have leftover data that suggests they were planned at some point.
Then again Wolf, Jigglypuff, and Toon Link were but people don't want them gone.
...were what? Roster filler? There's little evidence to suggest any of those characters were decided upon at the last minute. And, unlike Pichu, only one of the characters you listed was a blatant clone of another character.
Nope.
Spydr Enzo says bye... again.
Oh wait, it can't... because it never existed.These two comments right here prove that you have no idea what you are talking about.
Why does it all have to be about specific representation with you? By your logic, Mewtwo was the Psyhuc type and Legenday representative. Lucario is the Fighting type representative. PKMN trainer is the Trainer class and Starter represent.
Sounds like you're implying that representation is the only way to keep the roster in check
No one here is against proper representation. You just seem to have a skewed vision of how the Pokemon series should be represented. You seem to think that each Pokemon was included to represent a certain type or a certain generation, but this is horribly false. Neither type nor generation matter a single bit.
Who cares if neither their type nor their generation has any current playable representation? I can tell you one person who doesn't... Sakurai. It's just you, kid. And I would really like to know what puts a Pokemon like SCIZOR on the same level as Zoroark, Lucario, Mewtwo, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Charizard, Squirtle, and Ivysaur. There is absolutely nothing that stands out about Scizor, and where is this "great popularity" that you speak of? Sounds like a lot of bias to me.
Pikachu is on the list, he's number 48. And no one was arguing that Scizor isn't one of the more popular Pokemon, but just because he ranks high with the demographic that voted on this poll doesn't mean he is in the same class as the Pokemon playable in Smash. Scizor really has nothing going for him other than above average popularity. Plus he's already been dismissed by Sakurai when a 2nd gen was actually a possibility.
Oh geez, for some reason I read he wasn't on it. Most of the Pokemon above Scizor are legendary, I'll do the same post for 18 up to Mewtwo.
I feel I have to make counterpoints to these.
It more so shows Mewtwo standing and able to walk whenever it's Gengar it generally shows him hovering, I was just saying some concerns. He's one of my favorites so that'd be awesome to see Gengar.
