I believe that rivalry could reign in Fighter Pass, what do you think of that idea?

Agumon for Digimon vs Pokémon
Scorpion for Mortal Kombat vs Street Fighter
Crash Bandicoot for Crash vs Mario vs Sonic

Mmm. Rivalry is a topic that would rustle up anyone's boring feathers. It's hype. It's always a matter that gets people talking about it. Excited for the temptation that it brings when the fact becomes reality from months & months of discussion.

I'm just not convinced quite yet. It's very fitting though if it happened. Digimon vs Pokemon has been ongoing for yearsssssssssssss.

So aparently already been confirmed that the news isn't about survive. it's probably not about the next story game either since that's still a long way off. and this report came out the same day that joker's dlc got released for smash, just in time for people to start wondering about who the next character is. just food for thought.

I believe Digimon were Virtual Pets, not Tomagatchi, which was an entirely different brand.
Which is in large part why the initial question I asked persists.
They are called "Digimon Tamagotchi"

And the Eevee ones are 100% the same as the Digimon ones.
Made by Bandai as well.

It could've been a different Digimon. Maybe Tyrannomon?
Was that a Virtual Pet?
There were only like 8...
They were each based on different animals.
And holy hell were these the original Digimon?

...no. They couldn't have been. None was a whatever Gabumon is.

Well, it was among evolutions in Virtual Pets. I think all VP were Rookie level? I don't remember as I never had any of them.

He's a red-colored dinosaur Digimon. But probably wasn't it. I don't know if Tentomon had one, though, but he's a red-colored insect Rookie level Digimon.

They are Pixel versions, very small and had no color, maybe you just don't recognize.

It seems the one I had was a gigapet- which was also the highest selling one in the USA. Interesting.
Also I have no idea how I would even remember it if it came out in 1995.
The Digimon Tamagotchi was made for boys in 1997. Digimon was born there.
Programed to have battles, trade digimon, use items, etc

It sold so much that Digimon was as Big as Pokémon.
Thats why Digimon have Animes, Movies, Mangas, Games and new Tamagotchis until today.

The Digimon Card Game and merchandise is big in japan, they have so many things you can't even count lol

This is why people here don't think Digimon has a chance, but Japanese people know very well that Agumon has a chance in Smash.

And you can buy in US and Canada the Digimon Tamagotchi 20 Aniversary Edition:

This is BIG news, becouse this merch it's rare to see here. They are giving big support for the Digimon Tamagotchi again for us here.

I'm a proponent of Digimon/Agumon getting in, but no... Digimon was never as big as Pokemon.
Pokemon, in the first few years in particular (after America, in 1998), became so big so quickly, it was classified economically, sociologically, and philosophically as a Phenomenon.
There is literally no direct comparison to Pokemon from any series. The closest since is what is currently going on with Endgame and the MCU.

The point you are making, as to the size of Digimon, otherwise stands... but not as a comparison to Pokemon. That argument is not winnable, and ultimately makes the merit that is behind the statement sound less true than it is.

Ok, great.
Thank you for making this as Big as the Big Bang.

Correction: Digimon was Big, but not even close to Pokémon!

There's some fun ones. Angewomon for Gunner(or Brawler), though there's others like Andromon(who could work for any of the three. He has electrical discharge weapons, but also a lightning blade for a potential sword, and easily could attack physically).

Musyamon could be a fun Swordfighter. Though Victory Greymon sounds like the best option for that, or Gaiomon respectively. Omnimon to some degree too. Tankmon would be a fun and silly Gunner option as well. I actually can't think of some really good Brawler options that aren't as simple as "happen to fit" like Zudomon could due to his body design, or his final form, Vikemon. There's just so many options it hurts. ...Not over 9000 though.

The Spirit Digimon from Frontier would be awesome as Mii Costumes!

Overall, the lack of non-human mii costumes is pretty lackluster.
I hope this changes in the future.
In general Mii Costumes work best if we get .... hundreds...

In terms of Mii costumes, I'd want these:
:ultbrawler:
  • Togemon
  • Gatomon
  • Veemon
  • Flamedramon
  • Justimon
  • Gaomon
:ultgunner:
  • Machinedramon
  • Gorillamon
  • Tankmon
  • Omnimon's Garuru cannon
  • Imperialdramon (Fighter Mode)
  • Beelezemon
:ultswordfighter:
  • Omnimon's Wargrey sword
  • Piedmon
  • I swear to everything if we get Victory Greymon skin
  • Gallantmon
  • Starmon w/ star sword (lol)
  • Goblimon holding club
And universal ones (meaning, they don't go to just a certain Mii Fighter. They're shared among all 3. OR, they're just hats or costumes):
  • Angewomon
  • Angemon
  • Gabumon
  • Greymon
  • Patamon
  • Etc
EDIT: There's just so many, lol. So many to choose...
