greninja is not OP... it just has high speed and good ability, nothing more... one trickroom setup and he's done for...
He's got horrible defenses and no bulking moves...

But there won't be any issue about his ability protean or torrent in smash, so there's no OP anymore. Speed isn't everything ye know... it would suck if they actually squeezed that pokemonbattle mechanic in his build... like fire attacks wouldn't harm very much n stuff...

Anyways, it's not pokemon x/y, it's smash.

I can tell that the controls for him are going to be hard to master, but it will be worth it :)

My only question is can you use regular attacks while charging Shadow Sneak? It could be really good for combos.

Greninja is going to be dumb, people are going to be salty when the play against him.

Wish his wording was a bit clearer on the last bit there, but it looks cool enough. Why's there a random fire cloud near Charizard though?

I hope they put a demo on the e-Shop. Even if Greninja isn't in it, I would love to be able to get a feel for how this game compares to Melee, Brawl, and especially Project M.

See how his tail is in front of him? My best guess is that his tail was behind him to begin with, and during whatever move he's doing, he kind of swung his tail forward, and the fire is the trail of where his tail was.

Whelp, I guess I may have 4 mains. Yoshi and villager, and now Charizard and Greninja...

Yeah, a lot of people are getting caught up on the phrase "charging up."
It looks like a buffed version of Dimension Cape.

Now im also very excited to use greninja... I love sneaky and fast plays. Those have been my favorites in almost every game. (league of legends for example)

Really would have preferred Zoroark but I guess Greninja isn't the worst. At least it fits my play style. Also since there is a Fire and Water starter fully evolved where is the fully evolved Grass starter. Or is Grass going to be left out. I mean I'd love to see Sceptile in the game. It would be interesting.

That's the majority. I on the other hand haven't. I always have Zoroark on my team no matter what the situation is and I think it would have been a perfect and totally unique fighter.

But the majority of people have forgoten about having zoroark and moved on ever since 6th gen was announced
Regardless, that doesn't negate his right to be disappointed that character he hoped could be in is absent.

Greninja will definitely be one of my mains in the games for sure, especially since he was my starter in Pokemon X.

I actually thought it still had a good chance even with gen 6 on the way.
Naw, while he was popular, he was more of a fad that passed away as well as being regarded as more of a gimmick in the competitive community. Pokes like Mewtwo and Lucario on the other hand were always more consistently popular and more of threats in the community. Especially with 6th gen, hype around Greninja obviously had it included. Zoroark would have had a good chance had it been 5th gen, but it's 6th, and had very little chance from the start.

I see your point but I still had hope for it. Oh well though. I'm sure I can get used to Greninja. And if not that's what Lucario and Charizard Mega-evolved are for.

Can't wait to play Strider hiryu Greninja. he did seem pretty unexpected, but awesome nonetheless.

Well not totally unexpected. And actually for an absurd second during his trailer I was like "Holy **** its Naruto!" when I saw him weaving hand signs. And Water Shuriken looked exactly like Rasengan at first.

yeah you can all shout that Greninja will be your main for sure, but let's talk again when you'll actually be able to play him. Who'll know if he sucks...? I like his appearance and he seems cool, but i hate the term "maining" someone... just play all-round... more fun and less boring to play against ^^

So now we (more or less) have names for all of Greninja's specials.

Neutral: Water Shuriken
Side: Shadow Sneak
Down: Substitute
Up: Aqua Jet

I'm just saying there's no need to be dissapointed when his chances disappeared a long time ago
Oh alright I guess we'll all just run our hopes and expectations by you first to make sure they make sense. Good to know.

It was pretty commonly excepted that zoroark missed his chance the moment gen 6 was announced

People like you seem to forget that some people main characters based on how much they like them canonically, let alone in Smash. I like Greninja in Pokémon X, so I'll play as him in Smash 4. Simple as that.

No, of course, i understand that people are hyped to play as greninja cuz it's a cool pokemon, but that's not the way it goes here... when a new character will be revealed, they'll suddenly change their minds again and all claim the new one to be the new main. It's just stupid imo to main a character without even knowing how he plays. We've seen moves, yes, but you haven't played it for yourself... You'll have to wait till smash 4 is out there and able to test all the characters yourself...

I don't have main characters... even though there are three characters under my avatar, they're just three characters i'm hard to beat with... Not calling them my mains. I play all characters. Let's say, i just main them all.

lol, I didn't go fanboying for either the Trainer, Villager, Megaman, or Little Mac. I'm fanboying for Greninja because he looks like a combo character which I enjoy playing because imo those have the steepest learning curve. Also cuz he looks so motherf**king sexy.
I main characters in order to get better at one character, know almost all that character's ins and outs. More satisfying rather than shallowly learning all the characters.

Sadly I can't say the same for me and Rosie, I don't know I just really like her as a character
