Chances are for the same reason as to why you can't capture another trainer's pokemon.
Oh and as far as limits go for the Pokemon trainer, I don't see him commanding anymore than 2 pokemon out on the field at one time, so him sending 6 total on a character isn't going to happen IMO.
You can rationalize it all you want, but the glaring evidence that Red looks exactly like he does in Brawl proves otherwise
And I’m saying it doesn’t matter at all if they look alike,
Red’s design is a major symbol for the series (again, based off the guy who made pokemon when he was a kid himself), so of course they are going to use that, he is one of the strongest parts to the series. My point is it doesn’t matter if it is him 100% because they say “PT” for the name, because they are for a part talking about the symbol that they character has when selecting him. Funny bit of info though about a thing like this,
it can be “both things” for a subject like this one in case this thread didn’t know that. However, this thread would never do that for a subject...
We should be talking about pretty much the full variety of pokemon out there for him to use in order to represent his “symbol” as a whole that he is suppose to be
(you know as in the “Pokemon Trainer” part of that), and not just a limited number of them which is what
some people in this thread are saying and what I really am in disagreement about in the 1st place when it comes to this area (because I just noticed some people might not have got what I'm trying to say).
If they actually used Red for the name at the character select, then that would mean that they did in fact limit what would be talked about just now. After all, canon wise Red has a team you fight at the end of GSC/remake and PS2 games:

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Red_(game)#Pok.C3.A9mon_Stadium_2
And like I said before, if you guys are really going to be off about the thing and thinking the stuff should be exact like shown in SSBB, than why is he using more than 3 pokemon that aren't Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard?
Unlike Pikachu, humans are different in appearance
Actually, there are several form differences as well for pokemon besides just gender (which is the most common):

Such as big examples from this stuff:
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Spinda_(Pokémon)
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Unown_(Pokémon)
Oh and to explain why differences in looks are to the point where they don’t look so different, I suggest you look at humans as well:

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Youngster
You have to like how every young boy and girl pokemon trainer looks the same according to their art now as well huh. Do you think they are the same little boy and girl trainer each time? Or are you aware that making a lot of realistic differences for close to about 500+ and going up still in number pokemon is going to take a lot of time and energy and a lot of memory space on a game card as well?
It's pretty much the same idea with various areas in the Mario games, EB, or pokemon as well, places like Fourside are scaled down I mean just look at it:

You can tell how what I mean right?
I just find it very silly how you're trying to rationalize every little thing lol
I’m pretty sure I’m not trying to rationalize every little thing, otherwise I would have stayed in another topic that is trying to do that.
Nintendo dislikes guns soooo
Pokemon is the obvious alternative
obv.
No, I’m pretty sure Nintendo has no issues with guns at all, as you can see in this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=na0mYSFPoCU&playnext_from=TL&videos=_IQx4LbbGkg
Look at the guns on that thing. Just look at them.
Oh and they have no issues with this as well:

I like how you lol at this, so please tell me again why Ness can fight foes physically with a baseball bat when they are flying and have projectiles as a weapon?
I draw that Mario has amazing agility (one of the few characters that examplifies it at such a degree), but not that impressive "mph speed"
I like how Mario showing that he is super in pretty much everything in general for his games so far (super strength, super durability, his title being “super” ^_^) would magically mean he doesn’t have some form of super speed as well despite using star power to travel around the universe and having full control over himself at those speeds. BTW, the upgrade for FLUDD that lets Mario run on water really isn’t much faster than what he can already move at in SMS (well, it is almost 2x faster I guess).
Personally I still want to know why Mario avoiding cannon fire from things like heat seeking bullet bills which are designed to fly through the air well isn’t an example of both super speed and super agility.
I also think this thread still doesn’t notice just how much ground Mario is traveling through again when it comes to the games, so on top of my Super Mario World stuff and all that other stuff I've shown before. I’d also like to point out things like how you should check out what the 2nd area of where you go to in Super Mario Galaxy 2 is and what they just happen to be from:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZraNj5idCPQ&feature=related
(if you go beyond 16 seconds and don’t notice what it is than you should look again)
Granted Mario is using a space ship to help in a good chunk of the traveling between them, but it is clear based off the levels that Mario is going through various large areas once again.
I would fail to see why FLUDD be disallowed
It talks and is a power-up, for all intensive purposes
It also shows that it has a personality of its own that is clearly different from Mario’s, as in it is the simple fact that FLUDD shows that it has artificial intelligence. Which IMO that would link it to leading Mario some outside help in a match.
Stuff like the umbrella Peach uses in SPP (Perry) shouldn’t be allowed because it is clearly a separate character from her and IMO that would give Peach outside help which is against the rules of the thread. I also don’t see why Link should be allowed to use a certain horse, a being of twilight, or a certain fairy’s special powers as well.
In case you can’t tell, FLUDD is hardly the only thing I have issue with; granted FLUDD is different than those other things I talked about. I guess this is an odd issue, because I’m pretty sure there are plenty of other machines like FLUDD that we have to talk about.
Something like the Poltergust 3000 wouldn’t bug me because that machine at least doesn’t show it is a separate character, FLUDD does.
The power to travel across the universe...is called the Warp Pipe. Which everyone can use.
Mario’s canon has actually talked about this subject; they clearly say that the Mushroom Kingdom and other areas such as the Bean Kingdom are connected by pipes; that system is clearly different than what a warp pipe or other forms of teleporting that Mario has.
The stuff in the SMG games is different as well, and I’m also sure that certain pipes like the “escape pipe” or items like the “magic whistle” from SMB3 are different from just the normal pipe system that you brought up; Star Road from various games such as SMW for starters is a different system as well, and how about that, it is linked to the “stars” again.
The launch star might be more like the power of the Luma then it is Mario.
Ok, I know that the Luma are shape shifters who can if they want pretty much become
anything because of what they are, you can even see them become power ups for Mario (such as the Red Star that allows flight in SMG1). So, with that info are you going to say that Mario shouldn’t be allowed his power ups as well? I don’t see how only becoming one of the many
fuel sources that allows Mario’s power would be a bad thing that still wouldn’t link the power to be his.
After all, what makes you think Mario has unlimited potential energy now huh?
I mean they aren’t the only things that become energy for Mario to use. After all, there are clearly foes in SMG (such as the bosses in the 1st place) and other Mario games being made with that Star Power. Yet Mario certainly has no issue taking them out and using the energy they were using, because they certainly can make power ups besides a launch star for Mario as well in case you needed to know. Just saying plenty of foes after being beat make things as well a good % of the time, so how is that not just Mario making the surrounding energy into that? He clearly has control over himself when he is flying to other planets in case you need a reminder about that.
Mario, Bowser, Peach, Luigi, even Wario and a certain Yoshi in some cases certainly have them under
their control in case you can’t tell that. The Toads in SMG aren’t able to use the power because in case you forgot, they have to have
space ships they fly around in these games instead.
Oh, and there are even sources of energy that Mario has use for allowing him flight/super jumps/power ups that aren’t linked to the Luma or foes, as you you don’t see them become the item/energy. So, how is that not just Mario using his star power there in those spots because they would be the safest spots/best spots for them? Check out this boss fight for example to see Mario using a mini launch star in this (avoid the level part of course, just go to the boss):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FkI2zmLBz0&feature=related
How was that not just him using his power naturally in that video, you don’t see any other reason for that to be there, there isn’t a Luma helping Mario and becoming the energy, and no foes were KOed for that as well.
If Mario was to throw star bits at Kirby, he would most likely eat them. He would probably like the taste.
How does this work? You are aware Mario can fling more than one right? I don't see how Kirby is going to suck up a lot of them being thrown in a row at him.
What makes you think his shape shifting abilities is not instantaneous?
Maybe because he has to swallow something 1st before he puts on the power, which includes switching from powers, that is clearly not done in an instant in games like KSS for the DS which shows him storing his powers/items away in his belly.
Forget Sunshine, recently in the last two Mario games Bowser had a shiny switch that pretty much said "hit this to defeat Bowser" (twice in the same fight), then in Galaxy 2 he gives you the ammo to use against him in every single battle with him. It's like he just wants to get his tail handed to himself.
NSMB and NSMBW is about Mario returning to his roots, just sort of like how Mario vs. DK has a bunch of old things in it.
I don’t see how Galaxy 2 having Mario hit huge chunks of rock back at Bowser’s face while running about his man-made planet is Bowser’s fault. You can clearly see in the background that this area might just have some side effects based off where you are fighting but if you don’t get my point about how the battlefield might just have a ton of random flying stuff around it then how is “he giving” the rocks to you during the final showdown when he is trying to suck Mario into a “black hole?”
Mario: Pure hearts! Woohoo! (If they even work)
Ganon: I wish for the pure hearts.
Ganon: I wish for my invincibility back.
Ganon: I wish for Mario's invincibility to be null and void.
/end
So, Ganondorf can steal god power now? Why hasn’t he just wished for the other two parts of the triforce then?
Also, I doubt Mario is so fast that Bowser couldn't wish for invincibility before Mario attacks.
I’m going to point out right now that chances are the Pure Hearts, and the Power Stars are all more powerful than the Star Rod if you actually look closer at what they have done per game.
The Pure Hearts for one thing are a container for the “God power” item the Chaos Heart, as in they can seal most of the power it has away. The Power Stars are pretty much a form of the Star Rod in that they can get you anything but they happen to contain far more power overall.
After all, the power stars and the energy connected to them have remade the universe; in fact the Story for SMG2 is pretty much just a retelling of SMG1’s story in a way. Now, I’m not sure on this but I’m thinking that things like the Crystal Stars have just as much or perhaps more power than the Star Rod, after all the specials that the Crystal Stars give Mario happen to actually be a lot more powerful than anything the Elder Stars do in the 1st PM for one thing.
