Should characters have special abilitys?

[Wrath`]

You know how pokemon have special abilitys like SPEED BOOST:raises speed every turn.
Do you think brawl charecters should have an abiltys like that?

I think thats what items are for. I guess it would be kinda decent though.

I had this SAME idea in the morning, but dont get me wrong, I had the idea, but I dont like it XD...

Each character already has their own unique moveset and everything. What's the point of having some kind of designated 'special ability?' It would basically just be part of that character, so the term 'special' would be pointless, except in the case of 'special' attacks, which are each character's B moves.

The idea wouldn't fit in this game, maybe in a Smash Bros. RPG, but not here. As mentioned, the items serve as the difference makers. That and the fact that the different natural weight classes and special attacks already set characters apart from everyone else. Speed up, attack up, defense up... it would be a hassle.

Yeah i agree. Items are meant to increase certain abilities. Such as the bunny hood (jumping increased dramatically) etc.

Sounds like something for a RPG, sorry it doesn't sound logical in SSB.

Their B moves are already their special abilities.
