The next WTF character?

In a world where there is no Sakurai. Only Link...
Simple discussion - no flaming kiddies - about who the next WTF character is. Butt... before you all say "ZOMG Geno" or "Leon S. Kennedy" or something like that - I'm talking characters no one would expect.

The great thing about Pokemon Trainer was that nobody would have predicted him. Come on, he was a great WTF character, and he is probably one of a duo (Or a few - whatever). The next one, to be WTF worthy, would have to be pretty out of left field, or a minority character everyone would think was an AT.

Before you say that there's discussion threads for all the WTF's (Lip, Jajamaru, random third party character etc), I would like to clarify that this is a discussion about characters no one had in their "propechies" or "leaked info" or on their idea of a roster.

Go nuts. My examples would be someone minor like, say, Marcus from FE6 and 7 :laugh:.

The thing about a true WTF character is that they've already been brought up by someone and competely dismissed by the majority. Take Pokemon Trainer for example, there were people who reckoned he would be a good character (as Red or whatever). These people were labelled n00bs by the majority and flamed completely.

When Pokemon Trainer was revealed. Lo and behold, suddenly it was a great idea. "Wow," the majority said, "Nobody ever expected him to be a character."

So, a third-party like Cloud which everyone strongly denies but if it did happen would be a great WTF character.

Similarly, closer to home, we seem to have invented this cap-offs for franchises. There's this whole Geno vs. Bowser Jr. debate going on. What if... just what if... Mario got a really unique representative that made his so-called representation numbers too high. It'd be a WTF if Tatanga or Captain Syrup or Wart appeared but it could happen.
