She's in 7 too? My mistake, then...I never played it, and because she was shown off in the latest Direct as if she were a series newcomer, thought she was one. I was also trying to compare the two in games prior to mid-2012, when this game started development.
Really only in Other M, where he's basically a Spikes-of-Villany-ed-up Hulk with wings and Woody the Woodpecker's face. Otherwise, he's pretty-well dragon-shaped in all of his appearances, and not very humanoid at all. If you consider "true" Ridley humanoid, then so is Charizard.
I've only really had one discussion with Saturn before, and that wasn't really anything heated or anything. It's just illogical to me that we're reducing things to the bare minimum when there's been set a certain standard.
Obviously, but I feel that the inherent notion that needs to be made apparent is that characters are not chosen based on some arbitrary whim of "need", it is pathetic when people cite Donkey Kong as deserving an additional representative because it "needs" one. There seems to be no other reason. The blatant fallacious nature of these posts annoy me to no end. If you have logical reasons to support your assertions, great. Many decide that is unnecessary to develop a cohesive argument so they proclaim that something "needs" to happen. It is a personal problem of mine, I suppose.
If he wants to get the game hyped, he could reveal Ridley pre-release. I mean, he has to know how wanted he is in the west. What better way to get people excited than with Ridley?
My point was that what is needed is completely subjective and thus you arguing about it with me is pointless because I can simply declare anything needed or unneeded by opinion, asshole.
Easily overlooked? Everyone who's played pokemon x/y knows about mega evolutions and the tutorial, saying it can be easily overlooked is like saying that the new pokemon movie can be overlooked.
GENIUS!

It wont be overlooked. Sakurai speaks with the Pokemon Company, he already knows about what they are doing that is pertinent to Smash. The Lucario tutorial isn't important, let us be realistic. However, it doesn't need to be relevant. Lucario is already an established veteran, Lucario is still one of the most important Pokemon, I doubt this Mega Evolution plot-line is going to be the ONLY thing they do with such an iconic Pokemon, it also meets the criteria of relevance. Even if it was, it is enough for him to retain the essence of value.
I mean more humanoid in the vein that his overall structure is almost like that of a basic human but has its own altered animalistic way. But still, the only thing that really makes Ridley seem like a dragon is that he can breathe fire, nothing else really.
Not what I meant. What I meant is that it wouldn't have really mattered if they put it in the game at all, and could have easily been overlooked and it wouldn't have made any overall difference to the game in the long run. Hell, at least give me the opportunity to use my Mega Blastoise instead!
Again, at least when I say the word I don't use it that literally. I know that Ridley isn't in fact needed in order for the game to be successful or anything, previous installments will constantly declare such a statement false. However, it's more or less a personal need in order for things to feel complete, and that's how I read it when other people say it too. I guess it depends on how we each interpret things, but I don't think it's supposed to be taken so literal unless it's spoken by the dimwitted.
...okay, sure, whatever. I give up. -exasperation at maximum-
However, they DID put it in the game. That is the important thing. You are absolutely correct, it wasn't necessary. They did it anyways, why? Probably to make Lucario relevant again, he already has the popularity and whatnot. He just needed a minor push, they decided to give it to him.
Well, it wouldn't be very fun if they would've been like "LOOK! MEGA EVOLUTION! Sure hope you picked one of the random twenty-or-so Pokemon that can do it! Oh, you didn't? Too bad." Somebody had to be the throwaway. So it was Lucario.
I did a little mistake, I missread and thought he was playable in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, but he wasn't. But Rosalina is in Mario Kart Arcade GP GX. But this is all just minor details that doesn't really have importance. and comparing them in Spin-off Isn't much point since King Boo is 6 years older.
What better way? Well, Sakurai can just show Mewtwo instead...

to SmashBoards, my apologies for the late welcome.
His shape doesn't confirm anything. Most call him an Alien Space Dragon out of convince.
The only person who too it literally was you so I have no idea why you're complaining. I said we didn't HAVE to King K. Rool. I didn't mean that literally, so hypocritical much?
Besides looking like a freaking dragon.
I was more or less arguing about it because I thought it was a surprisingly stupid thing to try and whip drama up over. I understand where you come from with the Palutena example you gave earlier because that made sense, but afterwards it just became this kind of Captain Obvious thing where you reduced things to the minimum, and I don't really see what the point of those posts were besides whipping up a ****storm intentionally. I'll gladly take the bait on that one personally.
It was THE Mega evolution because it was revealed first. Once they showed off some others Lucario was immeadiately put on a pedestal alongside Mewtwo. He was also the "posterboy" for the mechanic in the actual games.
This. This is all that matters really.
Ridley spits plasma, just saiyan.
Just like poor Charizard pre-XY.
This is a question? Because Lucario is pretty important, as is Mewtwo.
Your obvious highlighting of the word NEED sure implied that you meant it literally. Your way of phrasing it sure implied it too.
It did actually it gave a whole story to how you get the megaring and learn how to use Mega evo's even learn they came to be, it make's a big difference overall it added to the games fun and overall story line.
Most of the time you know because she responds.
One could consider him a Dark/Dragon-type, since his diet consists mostly of delicious parents.
Only I know the truth... it is really sad. If only there was a "love" button.
I hope my point still stands though. Ridley's a big flying dinosaur that shoots murder out of his mouth. That sounds like a dragon.
