Why :wolf: was cut anyway ? Was :4rob: or :4wiifit: this important compared to him ? He's like the only vilain that represent the Star Fox side, why cutting him from Smash 4 ? Because he was a clone ? Or it was just Sakurai saying "No more space animals in my game." ?
Are you dissing the :4rob:?
Death is coming for yoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooou.

"Actually **** you."
What? Why? What did I do? D:

Cue RamOne making Project Spark videos on YouTube in the near future.
Yeah, right, and Ridley is gonna be playable.

And new conquest:


I know Dark-type is called Evil in Japan and therefore making it fit, but it's still funny to see Greninja as a bad guy next to Ganondorf and Bowser.

Ridley was too big to begin with. It's his character with yelling and being a big vilain.
Ice Climbers weren't "that" wanted.
But I still don't understand for :wolf: and :lucas:. They are popular in their fanbase, fits perfectly the roster and represent well their series as bad guy and hero. But noooooo, let's cut them, they were clones remember. Sakurai at the beginning never wanted clones. So he cut them, and after he realized his mistake by adding the clone trio, he knew he f*cked up.
So, to "excuse" his mistake, he decided to add Mewtwo late in development, so that people forget about his mistake.

But in general, :lucas: and :wolf: should have been priorities over other characters like :4rob: or :4drmario: (even though he was added late in devlopment). My theory is dumb, like any theory. But I still think those two should have been added first.
They were likely cut due to time restrictions and limited resources, not because they were clones. Remember that as much as we want it, not every character can return even if they have good reasons to stay, and that's always going to be a fact of the game's development. So no, it was not a "mistake," it was just the way things worked out in development and they were the ones that got cut.

Greninja being with the villains/bad guys is something indeed lost in translation.

In Japanese, the Dark-type is, in fact, called Evil-type (あく aku).

If you were to literally translate "dark" to Japanese, it would be 闇 yami or 暗い kurai. The former is a noun (the dark, darkness), the latter is an adjective.

It's likely that in the original Japanese script, the team is called something like 悪人 akunin, literally meaning "bad/evil person" or "villain".

As I referred in my previous post, the Dark-type is called Evil-type (あく aku). In kanji, it's written 悪. Isn't it familiar? (You could easily guess what 人 means by now... :p)

Wait, what happened to the whole "no Pokémon are evil" statement the main series put out?

Don't worry, buddy. He'll create another account and continues there. He's like weed, he always returns.
And for the time being we have Gligar13Vids, he makes some good points.

Gligar13Vids is funny in a sense that the likes to hate a game he really likes. That's pretty ironic.

Quoting myself:
I was being facetious, I'm aware of the different names between the Japanese and English versions, but since the franchise in general is adamant about Pokémon never being evil (which makes for an interesting case with the name in Japanese), it made for an easy joke on the matter.
