Shantae, the Half Genie Protector of Scuttle Town! (A Switch To A New WayForward)

[Dyllybirdy]

At this point male default with a female alt would feel more insulting than just male-only.

i don't think theyd even attempt go that route again, after seeing the reception Robin and Corrin got. ;p

Um...they did it with Pokemon trainer in Ultimate already.

 

[zferolie]

I would like more girls too. Heck, Shantae, Medusa, Impa, Ms Pac-Man, and a bunch of others(including female like pokemon) are in my top wanted list.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Um...they did it with Pokemon trainer this game alone...

Oh god.

they have to go through this fiasco again, huh? I'd say this was a success on their part.

 

[Wwlink55]

Oh god.

they have to go through this fiasco again, huh? I'd say this was a success on their part.

I havent seen anyone complaining about Pokemon Trainer having a female alt. Im just saying that a new Male default, Female alt has been added in Ultimate.

I like male and female alts. Heck Inkling is that as well, but so far our only one that the female is the default. Honestly, COrrin should have been the default

 

[Parallel_Falchion]

Robin, Pokemon Trainer, and Villager I am okay with.

Corrin being male default is a farce.

Well in his case, he was there first ( not only in smash but in the pokemon franchise too ), and I think it's a cute move from them to even put her in the game at all.

Especially as it seems FE consideres the default corrin female in other games, like Warriors and Heroes

Small little thing, though.

It's actually somewhat hinting at the Pokemon Franchise. In the first gen, which Pokemon Trainer is based on, there was not a female alt. It took a later game to add a female alt.
When you think about it, this could have been intentional. ;p

Female Corrin is a good girl in a bad situation.

Male Corrin is a dork with a dorky haircut.

EDIT: ....I cant believe I double-posted.

i hate the fact that Robin's default is male. :/

but, that's just me...

i mean, yeah, at least she is there.

Huh. Marvellous.

I know that this female trainer was originally about to make it in the very first game, she had her design made ect but got cut for some reason ...
EDIT : Yeah I'm so glad she's there and is the only reason why I'll play pokemon trainer at all ^^

 

[Parallel_Falchion]

I mean, if it were up to me, I'd have Robin be female default, but considering all the context it's understandable.

I pretty much only use the female alts when I get a chance, so I agree

Also, I am happy Dyllybirdy didn't get made at my double post earlier today. I didn't want to do it but no one was tagging in of 15 minutes and I didn't want to edit. first double post on this site though

The research I’ve been doing into creating Cynthia’s moveset as another Pokémon Change character made me realize that most of her Pokémon including the ones that I think are most likely to represent her (Garchomp, Milotic, Spiritomb, Roserade, Glaceon, etc.) are all confirmed female. Her only male Pokémon are Lucario, Togekiss, and Braviery. So adding her has the chance of adding THREE female playable characters all at once, four altogether.

Good point there.

Oh man...poor guy.... I really, really do hope he able to pull through. I don't watch him personally, but I know and have seen what that dark place does to people, and I can honestly say nobody deserves to go through it.

Speaking of female characters, one of my pipe dreams for newcomers is Estelle from the Trails series. She could bring something new to the series being the only staff user and is no slouch in the personality department. Unfortunately Trails doesn't have a big presence outside of Japan but with some of Falcom's games being ported to the Switch recently there may be hope for her yet. Well at least I can dream about it.

>Based Estelle

I have always had troubles playing the games, as I am a bit too much of a mechanically-inclined gamer, but I would love Estelle to be announced.

I don't know her but her design alone makes me like her ^_^

She's cute! I like her already.

 

[Wwlink55]

She's cute! I like her already.

Literally just a few minutes into the first Tales game makes you love her character. She's a bit tomboyish with a lot of enthusiasm and ambition. Her (adopted) brother, Joshua, is the "straight-man" to her, and is often there to keep her in scope.


EDIT: Seems like some people of /v/ are actually starting to warm up to Shantae...which is surprising.

 

[GoldLiger]

Man the leaks are getting out of hand. I know that Isaac's growth item is in the game but that doesn't mean ALL of the banner leak is true. It's just mean a higher possibility for Isaac to be a fighter nothing more and nothing less. Are we really going to believe a leaker that tried to frame someone else?

 

[meleebrawler]

Robin, Pokemon Trainer, and Villager I am okay with.

Isn't this just a case of them not knowing the female would be more popular at the time of Corrin's release?

Well I do want banjo in so badly so yeah

Sorry

 

[EarlTamm]

Possibly. And I don't think they have ever changed what the main skin is and what the alt is, so it also makes sense why it is still the same.

I don't think we can jump the gun and say that item is from Golden Sun just yet. It very well could be, but the sprouts don't look identical, they are both just generic spots with two leaves. The Healing Field item had a spirit on it that looks more similar to the mystery item, and that item looks like a blossom. So it's possible this item could be a seed that you plant which over time sprouts into the healing Field.

Not saying it's certain for either, just that we can't assume anything.

No?

I mean, I'm not going to go around, actively trying to stop people from believing it, on the off chance that it is somehow real, and also because I'm not the kind of guy who goes around trying to crush people's hopes and dreams, because of the amount that's happened to me (Mostly, with things concerning Rotty, but that's beside the point).

We have no proof it's from Golden Sun, and I find that very hard to believe. Psynergy moves just don't remotely function that way, and I'd argue there are far better choices for Golden Sun items, like the weapons.

I'm only saying that growth in the GS have isn't a physical item, so it doesn't have an official object form. So if it is an item, the team had to give it a look that can't be taken completely from the games, as such it doesn't look exactly like the icon in the game and this has just as much likeness of being unrelated.

I want Isaac to happen and think he is incredibly likely, but as is anything on this mystery item can only be an assumption.

It could be a freakin' Mobile Sprout from Earthbound for all we know. We do have a Ramblin' Evil Mushroom item after all.

Welp, that's it. Pack it up boys and girls.

Our girl is most likely an Assist.

And she'll never ever be more than that if we just "pack it in" as you say. Hope you're happy.

Yeah, I already know TOY.

Rottytops is an assist.
I mean, she couldn't ever get past that role.

It's okay if you want to leave, but don't try to drag everyone with you.

I have said it before. If you want to give up, then fine. Do it. But don't tell others how they should feel. If others are still able to believe, then let them. Nothing has come out to say she is disqualified, you are just losing hope without evidence. Do it if you must, but please keep it to yourself.
