Except no, EVERYONE knows the 'main character first' meaning Simon would have been including, Chrom and Dark Samus were safe picks, especially judging from what Sakurai said. And Gothitelle is what kills it because should Gardevoir have some kicks, which I highly doubt it wouldn't have, Gothitelle would be unable to do the same. ALSO NOBODY LIKES GOTHITELLE
Don't make me go Mike Tyson on your sorry "If they completely change 90% of the moveset and then change the animations for it then it's still an echo" *** because at that point, only the specials would be the same. I am willing to make a ****ing money bet with you like I did with Blue that Bandana Dee wouldn't be an echo. How does 50 euros sound?
Lol. Except nobody knows if Richter Belmont was the original character (Again, Sakurai even teases who was the original character in the direct). The leaker never said Chrom.
You are making some pretty heavy, biased judgements about what you think the fanbase likes and doesn't like.
Did people like Pit or Palutena? Ice Climbers? Game and Watch? R.O.B? His logic is that Gothitelle would be an echo fighter of Gardevoir, an actual popular pokemon character. I am indifferent to the whole idea anyway.
And lmao, stop getting defensive or angry about somebody else's comments. I merely said I could see it. No he wouldn't have 90% of his animations changed. They'd actually all be the same as Kirby's with the addition of a polearm, and different specials. I'd be estatic about Waddle Dee being an original character and believe he should be. No, i'm not willing to bet for it, because I don't care about it. Its a damn video game lol. Relax.
Who's "Pitcher?" Seems strange that an employee would know the entire list except for what Pokemon is coming. I don't buy it.
Its Richter, the person who is writing definitely does not speak english as his first language (just read the article)
