I’m sayin you phrased your statement rudely.

Instead of going “I dunno about that one *state your piece*”

You went “Nah **** that ****, make it a poke ball.”

Poke ball would at least be something. People wouldn't even acknowledge Poochy as AT material...

About that...

how is the Trojan warriors Pokémon that looks like fighter team Kirby not unique?

And it’s not a big, it only looks like one because it’s a troop formation

Welp, that's what I get for not playing Sword Shield yet


You know what, I'm just going to head off, because I really don't wanna start another big "oh no I misunderstood! Better quote me a bunch, even after I apologize!" after what happened yesterday with you. Really don't need the stress.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Which is fair, but why would you comment if you know actually nothing about something and say they wouldn’t be cool?

You’ve got a good point which I agree with.

for the record I thought it was cool even when I thought it was a caterpillar.

Very true, I don’t disagree.

I just think he coulda been more polite is all

Polite is like the one thing I hate acting like, but I do anyway because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, not a big deal.

If anything, I just like to be blunt here and there just because.

and, now I'm heading off! (for real this time)

Dude, I’m not starting any arguments and I certainly don’t mean to be hostile. Yesterday and today were both instances of you having misinformation when discussing something.

which isn’t wrong, I get misinformed too plenty of times on subjects. But it was better to point them out then not to. I have no vendetta or ill will towards you. With my post I wanted you to at least consider something first when you’ve seems rather then just seeing a picture and making assumptions based on it.

That doesn’t make character speculation fun. If you want a quick look at how it acts watch this:

All six aren’t out in the front. You can easily work them into coming out for attacks. And no retreat would be a sick gimmick in smash.

movement would have them marching and charging, after that you can take other poses they make for aerials and what not.

Also I’m not saying your suggestions are bad choices either. I love Rillaboom and cinderace is pretty cool too and would be fun picks. I just wanted you to at least see the viability in Falinks as a unique addition, even though it’s super unlikely, it would be fun.

I hope you didn’t think I was rude as I did t have that intention or think I did either, if not then I’m sorry for giving you the wrong idea in my responses.

 

[MBRedboy31]

I’m being completely serious. I genuinely think Falinks deserves the Pokémon spot. It’s so unique with a brilliant design that could make for a supper fun character

I imagine that they’d have really strong and long range attacks when together, but they’d be reliant on preventing the opponent(s) from separating the troops from the leader, lest their attacks would become much weaker and short ranged. It’d be kinda like how Pikmin Chain in Brawl has more range if you have the maximum number of Pikmin with you, except with a lot more of their moveset. Some multi hit attacks would have more hits if you have more members, since the animation would consist of them attacking one at a time in rapid succession.

 

[Shroob]

Falinks

Ice Climbers


But on crack

 

[Z25]

It’s definitely meant to look like a caterpillar. It’s armor definitely looks like it, but the Pokémon themselves take on a military formation design on the interior.

which is why I love this Pokémon, it has so many concepts going on that all blend really well and make it stand out above the rest

 

[PeridotGX]

eh, beg to differ.
if I had to pick a Pokemon character from Gen 8, a random insect pokemon? Starter Evos(either individual, such as , or style) or Box Legendaries would be the best options, "Fun"-wise

Fun and recognizable are two completely different things. I'd argue that some of the least recognizable Pokemon would be the most fun to play as (Lurantis, Heliolisk, Roserade).

I could definitely see that. Maybe even to balance it more, the other five go away per opponent hit for a short time but eventually respawn. Essentially you could be punished more for get hit and would want to be good at spacing with them. Which would be a pretty interesting route to go with.

 

[Shroob]

So yeah.


I dunno if Fighter 5 will be shown off at TGAs(Though I'd say it's VERY likely)



But we're almost assuredly getting them shown off this month.


January has a new wave of Amiibo, and by some strange string of fate, every month where we've had a character released every month when we've had a new wave of Amiibo.

 

[Noipoi]

I think they’d lose one or a few at a time rather than all of them at once (depending on the strength of the hit(s)) so that you don’t get punished too hard for getting hit just a few times, but it’d still emphasize not getting hit. (On the plus side, having fewer members would decrease your hurtbox size, making it easier to dodge attacks.)

In turn, I think they should respawn faster when you get hits of your own, so that you are encouraged to keep fighting rather than try to stall out their respawning.

They might have an attack that launches one of them out as a strong projectile, but you can’t get them back until they respawn as aforementioned, so there’d be a lot of risk/reward associated with it. There could be a charged version of it that launches all of your troops at once for a really strong projectile as a “risk it all” attack similar to Magic Burst.

With Namco off the table, I want it to be someone that really knocks our socks off. Another Snake/Cloud/Joker character of “I never ever thought they’d be in”. A character we never even contemplated the likelihood of because it just hasn’t crossed our minds.

If Nintendo is gonna force me to be surprised, I want to really be surprised. I don’t want another Rillaboom situation where the final product is super obvious.

All of this would be really awesome to see actually. I really like the high risk high reward style. The risk aspect for everything in general could make for a pretty in depth and fun fighter.

So you're saying:


Reimu time

If it needs be. Although I really hope it’s another western ip just to prove to all the people who still think it can’t and that Banjo is an “exception” that it can happen.

Master Chief

Kratos

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Master Chief

Kratos

Just so you know, because of your last post I am reading your posts in Otacon’s voice.

Also.... I get Master Chief, Microsoft already has a characters yadda yadda yadda..... but why Kratos? Is it because Sony is technically a Japanese Company despite its gaming devision being primarily controlled by its US division and the character and series being developed in California?

Oh, I always assumed that Kratos was western developed.

He’s western developed. Sony Santa Monica is an American Studio. But Sony as a whole is a Japanese Company.

All I know about Fighter 5:


If it's Phoenix Wright/Amaterasu/Reimu: I'll scream for joy

If it's Sora: I really won't care but congratulate his fans

If it's anyone else: I'll be scouring through all the hints and fake leaks and trying to find a connection like Pepe Silvia.

 

[Knight Dude]

It's Officially Christmas Season. December 1st, let's get it.

I've been trying to get all the spirits and so far I've made decent progress with it, got Protoman and Rush finally. I've also got a ton of Leon and Jill Spirits since those two fights are mad easy.

I'm mostly just trying to grind specific copies so I can get stuff like Ribbon Girl, Yun and Yang and the Kyurem forms.

 

[TheMightyP]

So i played FighterZ for the first time. First off, my hands hurt. Secondly, I came in believing my team was Yamcha, Krillin, and Tien, and it ended up being Yamcha, Teen Gohan, and Frieza.

Crazy how life works sometimes...

All I know is that there is an increasingly high chance I’ll be dissapointed by who they decided to bring to the second biggest gaming event in the year. And I desperately hope that they deliver with a character who’s just as big as the event.

But hoping with all my heart wasn’t enough to get the Grookey evolution I wanted so.... guess we’re getting Phoenix Wright or Edelguard or Steve.

I don’t hate Phoenix Wright. He’d be a fun Goofey character. I just think it’s not a relatively big reveal. He’s like... Terry tear. Not something you bring to something as big as the game awards.

I would also find them doing Ace Attorney over bigger Capcom series like RE and DMC very strange.

Plus, I have never seen Capcom as a viable option for this pass.

I mean, consider:


Joker was revealed at the Game Awards.


I honestly would not consider Persona 5 on the same levels of say, something like Halo getting into Smash. It was a big game sure, but still a certain audience.

I mean, what's your definition of "big enough for VGA?"

 

[Noipoi]

Bubsy hasn’t been disconfirmed yet.

Just sayin.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

It’s like trying to define life. It’s hard to nail down the exact criteria, but you know it when you see it. Examples I could think of would be doom, dark souls, god of war, banjo would definitely have been game awards tier, Crash.... or something super weird and out there like Carmen Sandiego, Angry Birds, or Frogger.

 

[Knight Dude]

Anyway, time to study Chun Li combos, because I actually perform the best while playing her in Street Fighter 2.

Plus, she's actually really fun.

#ChunLiForSmash

I'm more than cool with her being in. Anyways, glad you like SF2 at least. Let us know if you try the Alpha or SF3 games, even Super Turbo, since Chun got a couple new moves in that.
