Job #3: Submit a Donkey Kong character​

Thie was originally gonna be "Submit a Rare character" but by this time Rare is fully owned by Microsoft, hence why no Rare characters made it in Melee. So to make up for it, we'll instead be submitting a Donkey Kong character! Doesn't necessarily have to be limited to the Rare games.

 

[Deleted member]

I took the easy choice of Wario last time so I'm gonna let someone else take Diddy.

King K. Rool
I like villians and heavies. I think it'd be cool to see how characters who where added from Brawl onwards (4 and Melele especially) would play in melee.

 

[Perkilator]

Job #3: Diddy Kong
I intended to submit him for a Rare job but since that fell through, I'm gonna submit him as the DK character,

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

Dixie Kong

Dixie Kong is one of supporting DKC characters and she is a spider monkey with blonde ponytail and Diddy's GF.
She has ability to spin around and hover in air for some time.
She could have cool moveset potential for a fighter in Smash Melee 2.0 and she is one of Most requested Nintendo Characters in the game.
(It's a short write-up, so people know who she is)

 

[Butters Stotch]

Job 2:

This may be cheating and I will delete this if it is, but my idea is to have Diddy and Dixie as a duo character. This would be a nice reference to a scrapped idea for Brawl, which was to have both be playable simultaneously.

However, since hardware restraints on the Wii (a stronger console) prevented that, perhaps they could reuse the Icies’ mechanic or, if that’s too difficult, work like Duck Hunt, where they’re controlled by a singular AI and move, attack, take damage, etc. at once.

 

[Otoad64]

Donkey Kong Jr.

A more classic DK character that could represent Nintendo's arcade days.

 

[Speed Weed]

So I got a couple questions about this thread:

1. How much bigger will our roster be than the original Melee roster?
2. How are we gonna handle stuff like stages? Are we just building upon the preexisting lineup or are we doing what we're doing with the characters and sorta more or less starting from scratch?

1. Roster will be an itsy bit larger than the original one
2. We’re going to build upon the pre-existing stage lineup

 

[The Smash Nerd II.0.]

Roster will be an itsy bit larger than the original one

What do you mean by making the roster a itsy bit larger?

 

[Perkilator]

By a itsy bit larger do you mean.

Mostly the same in size.

I'd vote for Dixie but I don't think she makes any sense to have without Diddy

3. Diddy & Dixie

 

[Champion of Hyrule]

1. Jr
2. Diddy & Dixie (I know it sounds biased because diddy is already in smash, but I do genuinely think them as a duo fighter would have been the better option)
3. K Rool

 

[Perkilator]

King K. Rool​	19​
Diddy Kong (solo)​	18​
DIxie Kong (solo)​	4​
Diddy and Dixie​	6​
Donkey Kong Jr.​	6​

And in a shocking twist of fate, King K. Rool is the winner! Well, the more villains the better!

Job #4: Submit a Moveset for King K. Rool​

I feel like most of the specials will be obvious, but I'd still be curious to see other people's interpretations!

 

[FazDude]

I'm basing K. Rool's design off of his DK64 appearance, and while you could do everything Ultimate K. Rool does based off that (and I would be more than OK with just using that moveset), I did want to try and do something different. I mainly went for a stage-control/trapper vibe with him, since that's an archetype I find really interesting and kinda absent from Melee.

• Neutral Special: Blunderbuss
  • Pretty much the same move from Ultimate - Fire the cannonball, suck it up (or an opponent), shoot it in a different direction.
• Side Special: Crownerang
  • Again, the same thing as in Ultimate, with K. Rool using his crown as a boomerang. However, it would act much more like Link's Boomerang, with the crown always returning to K. Rool.
• Up Special: Kremling Slam
  • The first move which got flatout changed, K. Rool leaps into the air before coming down with a mighty stomp. It's pretty much Dedede's Up Special.
• Down Special: Klaptrap
  • K. Rool pulls out a Klaptrap and leaves it to patrol whatever platform it was placed on. It won't stay around for too long, but it'll repeatedly bite any opponent who happens to cross its path, leaving them open for K. Rool to attack.

Only FazDude has submitted anything so they win by default.

Job #5: Submit a Gen 2 Pokémon​

Yes, the obligatory Gen 2 'mon. Just to be clear, we'll handle Gen 3 content another day, but for now we're focusing on Pokémon from the Johto region.

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

Job 5:
Scizor (Gen 2)

Scizor is bug/Steel type pokemon, who debuted in Gen 2. He is based on insects with elements taken from scissors. He evolves from Scyther.

He has a moveset potential, since he could use Bug-type moves and occasionally steel-type moves. He also could include original attacks in his moveset.

We never had a Bug-type Fighter in Smash, so Scizor would fit into the Roster.

 

[Butters Stotch]

Job 5:

Heracross is my pick. It’s a fighting Pokémon, which fits with the theme and genre of Smash, and its relevancy was boosted by it being on Ash’s team in the anime.

Missed out on the last job since notifications stopped showing for some reason. FazDude ’s moveset is better than anything I could come up with, so that was probably for the best.

 

[FazDude]

Job 5: Entei

To be honest, I'll probably end up picking Scizor or Heracross as my top pick anyway, but I just wanted to throw Entei in the ring. It's a fairly important Pokemon within the mythos of the series (or at least Gen 2's storyline). Also, I just think it's neat.

 

[Otoad64]

I was going to submit Heracross originally but since that was taken

I actually do like Pichu so I’ll throw him in the ring

Sorry man, would’ve submitted someone else if I had known.

 

[Otoad64]

Sorry man, would’ve submitted someone else if I had known.

It’s fine, I was considering submitting Pichu anyway.

Feraligatr

I think he could have a pretty fun moveset. He would be another heavy, but quicker and useless his claws.

1. Scizor ( Tankman from Newgrounds )

3. Entei ( FazDude )
