After Olimar's reveal it would not surprise me if Yoshi is being held off until Yoshi's New Island is released. I fully expect him to be shown off with a new level from that game.

Luigi is the only real surprise considering this is the year of Luigi. Would not surprise me if he is revealed around Aug.

Wouldn't surprise me if he isn't revealed in a weak (although he should still be unlockable)

I believe both streams have ended for the night.

I'm hoping G&W is returning, then I can have a battle between 3 unexpected characters. (as long as R.O.B. returns as well)
I honestly don't see why they wouldn't put him in, he isn't really a complicated character or anything, he's a 2 time veteran, and the reason he was worth putting in smash in the first place still holds ground :p (also he's my favorite character to play as in brawl so I will be very deeply annoyed if he doesn't return XD)

Depends on if Luigi is still unlockable or not.
I don't recall Sakurai ever showing off an unlockable character before the game's release other than Snake and Sonic (and presumably Mega Man if Sakurai still feels guests should be locked).

It IS the Year of Luigi though, you'd think he'd get something special for a reveal or something.

Anyway, as cool as a luigi reveal would be, I wouldn't be mad if he is revealed since he is a lock

sidenote: Anyone else see pacific rim

edit: Only reason I want poltorgust is if it can combo into his up-b (Super Death punch of green ph1r3)

By now Luigi should not be an unlockable, especially after receiving a second game in his own series. I don't think he'll be hidden this time. If we receive another Mario character, they will probably take his place.

As long as it remains on his back for decoration like Ganondorf's sword or Falcon's gun :troll:
I actually thought of a way it could work in a Final Smash.

He rides around on the Poltergust (like in the PAL version Luigi's Hidden Mansion Boolossus battle)
and the Poltergust will spew out fire, water, or ice and the 3 elements can be switched through in the middle of it. It's also possible to fire a ball of one of the elements that travels as far as the blast limits of the stage or until it hits something solid.

Personally, I like it, him and jiggly are the only 3 characters to be unlockable in all 3 games, as long as they are obtainable early, I wouldn't mind if he's unlockable

Going to go see it tomorrow.

Good man

Just read up on Pokebeach about the Geneaect movie... Crap, the movie has absolutely ruined Mewtwo. I did not think it was possible but they managed to ruin one of the best Pokemon. If that is what I have to look forward to, then leave Mewtwo in the grave. That movie was nothing but a straight up cash grab.

So i'll be getting a 30 day Xbox live gold card (just so i can talk to my IRL friends that i haven't seen in a while) and Zone of The Enders HD collection.

Going to go see it tomorrow.

ZoE da bess. Good choice.

The 360 port was a little...sketchy, though. Lot of unnecessary frame drops, especially in ZoE2.

As far as I'm concerned if that cash grab brings mewtwo back then I don't really care, I've given up on pokemon's tv series a while ago (not the games though >:3) heck even bring in Genesect for all I care he's actually sort of cool XD

Luigi should not be a locked character anymore.

I've always thought that the newcomers should consist of most of the locked characters with few veterans thrown in for good measure. (People like Falco/Wolf, Ness, etc.)

They retconned the old Mewtwo out of existence. "He" doesn't exist anymore as far as the anime is concerned...
As a 90s Kid who loved the first and second Pokemon movies, that makes me very sad.
So Mewtwo Strikes Back and Mewtwo Returns aren't canon anymore?

Also, there's an evil tree-like Pokemon shown in an X/Y commercial before the film called "Aurotto".

I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be Grass/Ghost, given that most fan Grass/Ghost types are typical jack-o-lanterns or haunted trees.

Credit to PokeBeach for the sketches.

So the Mewtwo I grew up with and loved is gone forever potentially.

:crying: W-Whyyyyyy...?

Guys, what if Mewtwo has been both male and female all along?

He just was bored in between his break and was like ''Call me Mewtina."

:troll:

I read the synopsis... It doesn't look like it actually contradicts it that much it just makes mewtwo seem less like a jerk XD
You need to read it again then because it COMPLETELY changes "his" origin story. It's a retcon.

It would make sense in some ways. I don't understand why they wouldn't do that to keep things right in canon.

Pokemon are animals and some species do have the ability to change their gender.

How did they screw him up?

It said it was raised in a lab by evil scientists but then she blew it up and killed them by accident... That doesn't seem like a real retcon to me...

Well...

This doesn't really change anything....

The Mew in the Lucario movie was a different Mew than in the first movie.

No one was bothered by that.

I see it in the same way. Mewtwo is still a badass. Just a new Mewtwo.

That she shouldn't be there. Old Mewtwo was CLEARLY male.
