I just default to "dinosaur" due to the name...

Although it's name might be different in Japan lol. I don't know Pokemon all that well

Ivysaur’s name in Japanese is fushihisou, which roughly translates to “it seems strange.”

>Mario has Bowser
>Link has Ganondorf
>Donkey Kong has King K. Rool
>Samus has Ridley
>Kirby has Dee Dee Dee
>Pikachu has Mewtwo
>Fox has Wolf

>Ness and Cpt. Falcon don't have a villain rep
Do you guys think Nintendo will keep the villain-hero theme going or is K. Rool the last one?

Young Link could have Skull Kid

The others I doubt unless we get Black Shadow.


There's no way Mother gets a newcomer in my honest opinion.

 

[Mega Bidoof]

What?

Arent you still going on about the message you received?

If not and you’re just tossing random ideas, I sincerely apologize.

 

[Deleted member]

(Venusaur clearly has scales)

What you see as scales, I see as warts.

No.
I think the hero villain "theme" was just a nice coincidence with Ridley and KRool being very much requested characters and they leaned into it for KRool's trailer.

I don't think any other villain has even begun to approach the fan-desire for those 2.

 

[blackghost]

Didn't they recycle


Hold on

You know you are wrong, right?

people legit just pull info from nowhere on this thread

 

[Mega Bidoof]

Yeah those really look like warts, or maybe little spikes or something. They’re rounded and are poking out of the body, and there are only a few of them scattered around.

Black Shadow is getting a decent following, and I've heard the idea of him as a Falcon clone even as far back as Brawl.

 

[SmashingXan2]

Is anyone here thinking they'll just upload all the trailers to Youtube and cancel the direct?

 

[Shroob]

Is it soo weird to think he's just a toad with fantastical elements?

 

[Nethermoosen]

Ken Sugimori confirmed the Bulbasaur line was based on frogs.
Link is Japanese but it's the best I got... https://web.archive.org/web/2010123...ntendo.co.jp/ds/interview/irbj/sp/index4.html

Luckily this is pokemon, so we can say Ivysaur is a frog and call it good. Lol
If the creator says that’s what it is, then that’s what it is.

Nah. I'm sure they'll air it by next Thursday at the latest.

 

[Shroob]

Nah. I'm sure they'll air it by next Thursday at the latest.

And by then evvvvvvvvvvvvvverything's gonna be leaked.

Like, unless you're super invested in seeing the gameplay, we'll have pretty much everything spoiled between CoroCoro and Famitsu.

 

[MaestroDavros]

So has anything from Smash leaked yet or just non-Nintendo stuff?

Also how you guys/gals doing this fine evening?

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

That would be cool, as long as they got one labelled "Mystery Newcomer" with a question mark on the thumbnail.

 

[FooltheFlames]

I forgot how to make gifs work on the site. The img brackets and insert media functions aren't working for me. Oh well.
I think Smash has enough villians for now, time to move on to the more obscure characters to surprise us; i wanna be surprised!

 

[Graizen]

Agumon and Pikachu fighting in a Smash trailer.
Can you guys imagine the internet's reaction?

 

[WallyPalmer]

I'd think Mipha is the EASIEST Champion to remember because you activate her ability the most lol

No I remembered Mipha and all her unfortunate interactions, I was joking for that one
I was referring to forgetting about the character called Paya, who is apparently Impa's grandaughter. Not that there's much to remember, as she's only slightly relevant in the first mission outside of the Grand Plateau, and her only bit of lore is that she has a tattoo on her butt.

 

[Idon]

Black Shadow is getting a decent following, and I've heard the idea of him as a Falcon clone even as far back as Brawl.

Probably with the caveat being Ganondorf getting his own stuff.

As you can see, that's clearly not happening now.

 

[CaptainAmerica]

It's ok.

I've...

Oh man this was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I had to pause it at the ‘Trashy Man’ speech since I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe.

Anyone who doesn’t recognize this, go look up Pokémon Vietnamese Crystal on YouTube (NSFW, especially when picking up items and placing them in your bag)

Well, it's Sakurai's call on that one, we don't know who he'll throw at us next. Might be a villain, might be a hero, might be a wild card, or someone completely unusual.

Anything's possible. I'm sure Nintendo will do their best to get it out when it's ready. I wouldn't be too surprised to see it on Monday/Tuesday.

You catch up finally?

Spoiler

Only asked due to you liking a lot of my posts from hours or even days back

Honestly since I saw Viet Crystal I've refered to Victory Road as "The Road of Ultimate" and I love it haha.

 

[John Dylan Smith]

Well this waiting for The Direct (Which is understandable) is a little tiresome! Allow me to ask you all a question!

What other alternate costumes (For the characters who don't have one) would you all like to see in the game?

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Anything's possible. I'm sure Nintendo will do their best to get it out when it's ready. I wouldn't be too surprised to see it on Monday/Tuesday.

Yeah, Monday and Tuesday are safe bets. Anytime after would have a chance of leaking.

 

[Disfunkshunal]

Young Link could have Skull Kid

Young Link should have magic based Ganondorf. Toon Link should have twin sword Ganondorf.

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

That would assume the direct is nothing but trailers and I don't think that's the case

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Ms. Pac-Man for Pac-Man

 

[Nethermoosen]

I would like to see an Agahnim alt for Ganondorf.

Edit: For those who don’t know Agahnim, he’s the original Ganondorf.

 

[Zinith]

A Yoob color scheme for my boi

Or Boshi

 

[Deleted member]

I could see maybe Wednesday morning, but even then that's pushing it. Somewhere in between Sunday morning and Tuesday afternoon is what I'm expecting.

 

[Jedisupersonic]

Probably have some long segment explaining exactly how the online works yeah.

Anytime after Tueday Zinith must confirm to us that he's a Yoshi. We out here making bets, real betting hours.

 

[FooltheFlames]

Well, it's Sakurai's call on that one, we don't know who he'll throw at us next. Might be a villain, might be a hero, might be a wild card, or someone completely unusual.

Waiting for that wildcard~

The Sakurai wildcard... Will likely be something completely nuts this time.

Dark Sonic Shadow's inclusion is likely imo.

Wild Card = Groose.
Seriously though... Imagine if Groose got revealed... The internet would go nuts.

I might have to commission art for that lol

We would get a remix of the greatest character theme known to mankind:
