Arlo. The chaotic neutral of the SwSh controversy.

Question for y’all. If Clefairy had been Pokémon’s mascot like they originally intended, how do you think Smash’s lineup of Pokémon would change?

real talk, would Pokemon have even been as successful as it was, with anyone other than Pikachu?

It was like the perfect mascot material,

it's both cute and cool at the same time, so it appeals to multiple demographics simultaneously

Clefairy really wouldn't have had that same advantage, I feel

We probably wouldn't have Pichu either, and I imagine they would have picked someone other then Jigglypuff to be a last minute clone because he would look so similar.
Probably cleffa since that's the baby form of clefairy like pichu is to pikachu.

If I constructed two fighters passes, my mythical timeline would consist of a Dope Fighter Pass (DFP) and a Preston Fighter Pass (PFP).

The DFP consists of "heavily extensive research" that catalogs the first and third parties people I know would want. It is entirely based on a selfless desire to see my friends and family get who they want, so then I can selfishly feel good when I will it into existence.

  1. Geno - for TerminalMontage and some Geno stans
  2. Andy from Advance Wars - for my brother
  3. The Bravely Default gang - for Gentlepanda.
  4. Phoenix Wright - for Hinata and some evil dictator I know.
  5. Resident Evil - for Jones and Staindgrey
  6. KOS-MOS - for the cool KOS-MOS stans and so Lesley can get a female character. Plus her design is sick.
  7. Dark Souls - so I can watch the internet flip the **** out

The PFP consists of characters I want and anyone who disagrees with me can suck it. Yes, this is smaller than the DFP because I already have like 3 of my most wanted already
  1. Bomberman - upgrade that ****
  2. Mike Tyson - This would be the Mike Tyson before the criminal allegations. Back when he was an NES icon for being one of the most iconic video game final bosses to date. Plus he pretty much defines guest characters as a concept and how cool they can be.
  3. Digimon. Specifically, Omnimon. - I grew up back with the DS and Gamecube games, which were weirdly fun. Plus I love how Digimon is just Pokemon but with ****ing battle-mechs. They make the evolutions more insane and it's a wild charm for a young boy growing up. Anime was pretty widespread too. If they're going to give us Agumon, they better give him an evolution mechanic.
Any single one of these happening now would be a cherry on top. They would all be dope in some way to me.

If we're doing the 11 more slots thing...

1. Tracer
2. Dixie Kong

3. A pokemon from Sword/Shield
4. Master Chief
5. Laura Croft
6. Spyro
7. Ezio
8. Crash Bandicoot
9. Chun-Li
10. Scorpion
11. Tails

Bolded characters are the ones I actually care about. The others I just think would be effective fits.

Holy crap

As much as I bashed this game, I never expected them to stoop down to THIS level. We are approaching EA/Bethesda territory folks.

Wow
I think the issue was that the Dex cut was announced during the Treehouse stream, which is aimed for an English speaking audience. Masuda only knows Japanese so he had a translator.
Also does not help that it was the middle of the night in Japan at the time.

Edit: I hate autocorrect

They have had five months to give a formal announcement to the Japanese about this

There is absolutely no excuse for this shadiness

How come mid November always brings on an absolute crapstorm/consumer backlash in the gaming community?

2017 it was Battlefront II

Literally this time last year it was Fallout 76

Now it is Pokemon Sword & Shield.

Oh yeah.


Some guy did the maths.



Assuming we don't get another scrunch like what happened with Banjo's release, the CSS has enough room for exactly 11 characters, which, actually 100% lines up with the "16 Slots" theory from World of Light, since we still have 11 unused World of Light slots left.
So basically, updating the game bit by bit for the Switch's entire lifespan?

Then let's get this bread.

I did the same math and only got 7 extra slots? How did they get to that?

Technically I didn't ask for controversial opinions(I just gave one) but ya, I agree.

Controversial huh?

Smash Bros' roster is the worst due to its unequal gender ratio, unlike the better balanced Central Fiction and the "small but significant" Tekken 7.

You can dine on my blood tonight.

Wait, did someone say Goku? If he did, OFF WITH HIS HEAD
Dismissing everything Sakurai has done just because “there isn’t enough females”?

If you want to turn people against your movement, saying that is precisely how you would.

No real predictions, but Mega Man X, Jin Kazama and then 9 other characters that make people really happy.
