We know that giliding is probably going to be a major part of Brawl, kind of like Multiple hops and jumps. We already have 3 gliders

Charizard
Metaknight
and Pit.

Who else could there be?

All i can think up, is Balloon Fighter, Ridley, and knuckles, atm.

Mewtwo gliding makes sense

Balloon Fighter does not....Balloon Fighter should just have multiple jumps based on how many balloons he has and it also determines how floaty he is...IMO

How does Mewtwo gliding make sense, and Balloon fighter not?

have u played his games? he always has his arms spread out, and glides through the air....

I don't see how mewtwo would glide since he has no arms or wings...

:confused:

Knuckles can glide in some Sonic games.

Actually, he can in all of the ones he appears in, and the mechanic is pretty well identical to the one used in Brawl. But I think he was protesting that Knuckles is an unlikely character for Brawl, not that he couldn't glide.

On Mewtwo, I don't think gliding suits him personally. Floating/hovering the way Peach does seems more in keeping with a telekinetic character like him. I'd say the same is true of Lucas/Ness and Midna, personally.

I can't think of anyone who is likely to be in who could glide who hasn't been mentioned yet, to be honest. Ridley and perhaps Claus seem the extent of it from where I'm sitting. Most characters just don't have wings or other apparatuses to allow it.

yes Ive played Balloon Fight and have seen some vids of Balloon Kid....I know how Balloon Fighter flies around...Balloon Fighter should just get multiple jumps since thats how you gain height...by mashing the jump button(or holding B I think) and when he descends he slowly falls because of his balloons....thus he is a very floaty character.....thats like saying Jigglypuff should glide cuz she's a Balloon Pokemon...

and yea Mewtwo can glide just like he does on the ground....with his mind...

Mewtwo shouldn't glide...If he had anything, it should be more like Peach's float than actual gliding

Well he can't glide in Sonic Heroes.

About Mewtwo, he can fly in the Pokemon movie, why shouldn't he glide?

Lucario has psychic powers, so he could glide if he WANTED to, but it's not likely

How does Lucario have psychic powers...even if he has a little, I doubt his powers are strong enough for him to fly...
There is a reason he's weak AGAINST psychics

Not really, he's part steel. He can learn Psychic, arguably the best of all Psychic moves.

That doesn't mean anything. Jigglypuff can learn psychic and she doesn't float like peach in melee...

Remoraid and Spinarak can also learn psychic but you don't see them flying around and throwing people with their psychokinetic powers

Probably brawling
Cuz remoraid and spinarak aren't in any Smashbros. Lucario is more known for his mental prowess than them. He can talk, and sense stuff. His mental abilities surpass the aforementioned pokemon

Lucario can't talk and "sense stuff"... That was in the movie, there is no reason to suggest that all lucario can talk and "sense stuff", and the one in the movie died so no gliding for lucario even if he wanted

Whos to say that that Lucario was special? All Lucario are able to sense auras with their minds. their minds are hyper-advanced, and more developed than most pokemon. Besides, Pikachu in Melee = Anime Pikachu

A pokemon being able to learn psychic doesn't make them psychic...

Where are you getting the idea that the Pikachu in Super Smash Bros is the anime pikachu?

I thought that would be all done with Red in

If that lucario wasn't special they wouldn't have made a movie about it. Besides even if that one wasn't a special lucario it should have been able to use psychic to lift things up and to fly and stuff.

Also pikachu in brawl = pichu in melee
so they're not using anime pokemon anymore... O:

If Dark Samus was in, she could fly(in the games, she never even touched the ground 0_o)
And Mewtwo can definitaly glide, or floar, or hover....

Ashley could ride her broomstick and K. Roo l use his helicopter pack. They could be considered gliders.

That's not gliding at all
Click to expand...
Well, you're right.

But I think you could use the broom for gliding. That wouldn't be a big problem.
Similar to Meta Knight's /B\.

She gains high and glide with her bloon.

Ralph/Vaati/Link with Roc's cape.

Probably Ralph more, since he's a kind of comic character. Meh, anyone with a big cape/cloak can glide like a bat. See Severus Snape.
