Definitely an obscure choice for a new item, which is interesting in itself. But if there's anything we've learned as of late, it's that fake leakers have gotten better at picking really obscure concepts that would still work in Smash.Red Vest item?
Sounds like the Assault Vest from Pokémon.
It increases a Pokémon's Special Defence but prevents them from using Status Moves.
I mean, maybe it'll be an item in Smash?
Technically, any echo has the huge potential to be their own unique character. You mean to tell me with all those weapons in Kid Icarus Uprising had, Dark Pit should be an echo? He even has his own staff but its basically a toy in SSB. Daisy and Lucina too could've been interesting themselves with the right amount of work, but its all good.
He could use those weapons but the Silver Bow is his most used weapon, it's kind of his signature and characters in smash normally stick to their main weapons. That just reminds me of people saying Lucina could use a lance when she really wouldn't.
I think 9 PM EST?
Alright cool thanks! I'll have to tune into that.
"I'd love to see Kanto as a region again, but that doesn't make any sense. It's popular and all, but why would Game Freak bring back the region from the 1st gen at this point?"
Are we talking about Daddy Saks or Game Freak?"I'd love to see Kanto as a region again, but that doesn't make any sense. It's popular and all, but why would Game Freak bring back the region from the 1st gen at this point?"
Who knows?
The way I see it, in order to be an echo you need two things:
I don't know about Decidueye but we're definitely getting a Gen 7 Pokemon as a playable character in Ultimate.
S***, now i want Gengar.
Heck, even if you completely ignore the Dillon's unique moveset potential, making Dillon a sonic echo is outlandish simply due to body proportions. We're not talking a minor "few inches shorter than the base character" like Daisy or Lucina. Dillon would have to have freaky long legs, a much smaller and skinnier torso, and a completely different head shape to work as a sonic echo.
This is the same reason why I don't think that Isabelle should be an echo of Villager. In order for it to work Isabelle would have to have her dimensions drastically altered to match the early AC games.Heck, even if you completely ignore the Dillon's unique moveset potential, making Dillon a sonic echo is outlandish simply due to body proportions.

Wait, what does my post about Sun and Moon Pokemon have to do with Gengar again?
Also, interesting to note that the Smash Ultimate Exhibition starts when the Blog is usually updated.
I agree Stand Up is great, but the other two I don't care as much for. Never Give Up is fine for what it's going for, but it doesn't stick with me as it feels very typical in terms of its tone and doesn't have enough to stand out from other themes like it. New World is more unique and it definitely owes that to its direction trying to fit the tone of the arc, but it also works against it as it ends up being a little too soft and somber for its own good. Both are better then the Digimon Fusion theme for the reasons you stated, but I don't think they're as memorable or even as catchy as most of the other Digimon themes around them.
I have to say, they did a pretty good job with that!
To add to this, his body proportions also come at odds with how Sonic's moveset would work. For instance, Sonic uses a lot of kicks in his movesets as moves like his Down Air, Jab 3, Ftilt, and the like all have him make full use of his long legs. Dillon's legs are short and stubby by comparison, so a lot of those moves would have to be reworked since he won't have nearly as much reach or flexiblility with them as Sonic would. You'd essentially have to put in work into a clone that by definition doesn't require as much work, and due to that it makes Dillon not that feasible as an echo .Heck, even if you completely ignore the Dillon's unique moveset potential, making Dillon a sonic echo is outlandish simply due to body proportions.

2 AM BST (9 PM EST) but it doesn't usually update on Weekends.
That wasn't what I was arguing.
Blog updates being closed for the week doesn't bar an announcement from happening separate from the blog.
Honestly at this point if Gen 8 has even a pinch of Gen 1 pandering i'm gonna lose it.
I have to say, you got me there.
The Gen I pandering wouldn't be so bad if it was more Classic Pokémon Pandering.
They had no real reason to not include the cross gen evos of Kanto Pokemon in LGPE.I have to say, you got me there.
The Gen I pandering wouldn't be so bad if it was more Classic Pokémon Pandering.
As in, including Gen II in the fun.
Gen 8 is just Gen 1 but it's set 100 years in the future when everything is more techno
Only thing though is LGPE is a companion piece with Pokemon GO, and they are up to Gen 3 there last I checked
NOOO!
