I am going to be in Ocean City NJ next week. I didn't want to post a new thread so I figured I post here because everybody checks TSA's thread. So If anybody is going to find themselves at the jersey shore next week let me know.

Attn anyone who attended last Saturday's CCX, did anyone happen to catch an extra nondescript indigo controller lying around in the back room? I just realized today that it's not in my bag of stuff.

He was Hikaider from Kikaider. This guy was in ****ing Kikaider. Too good.

Darcia in Wolf's Rain.

Friggin T-Hawk in the animated Street Fighter 2 movie.

Steven Blum is God. No scratch that.

Steven Blum strangled God with his own intestines after gouging out his gut with a spoon.

Steven Blum is broken tier.

With the whole Samina thing and not being able to control the order of the pokemon switch, it looks like the trainer isn't gonna be that great.

Steve Blum aka David Lucas is my favorite voice actor ever.

His best voice actor in my opinion by far is in my favorite anime GTO "Great Teacher Onizuka" Must watch show, right behind the manga of Love Hina.

I have yet to see any pictures of Ash since my comp at work can't go on game websites but this one :(

Pokémon Trainer


No way! The Pokémon Trainer has finally arrived. And it looks like he doesn’t do his fighting directly.

Instead, he uses the three Pokémon with him—Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard—to do the fighting for him.



Pokémon change!
The Pokémon Trainer watches from the background.


Is... Is he issuing commands?!

He needs to use his three Pokémon to fight. So the only ones who fight directly are the Pokémon.

I guess you could say using this character is like playing three for the price of one!

And the Pokémon Trainer uses a special move called Pokémon Change to switch between them.
<Down Special Move: Pokémon Change>


Good job, Ivysaur! Come back!


The returning Pokémon tags the next Pokémon.


Charizard! I choose you!

They swap out in a set order: Squirtle→Ivysaur→Charizard.


They all share the same damage meter, so they don’t recover from damage during Pokémon Change. But they also have another stat, which you might call stamina.

If you keep fighting with the same Pokémon, or if you change them out too often, it’s not so good for the Pokémon.

If you want to be a good Pokémon Trainer, you’ll need to learn these kinds of ins and outs.

I'm making intelligent inferences from what I have seen. It's actually quite the opposite of being a noob.

Now if I said

OMFG!! Teh trainer looks like he is teh suk cuz Squirtle and Ivysaur are tiny and weak and Charizard is fat and slow, WTF@ making useless characters. Sakurai is stoopid.

That would make me a noob.

you forgot the many '!!!1!!!11!!' at that last sentence :p

But still, Lord has a point. Instead of percentage going up, it's going down. This means they could not only get thrown off the stage, but it means they can faint as well on the stage. If you play the 'Stamina' vs. thing on special melee, you'll understand.

People who play this character is gonna have to be real smart and such. Let's hope their 'HP' is around 300.

I will be maining Pit and Meta Knight in Brawl and use Pokemon Trainer and Ike as secondaries :p... Pit's jumps + airs = broken... and I will own someone using Squirtle in low-tiers. But you can't deny that Pokemon Trainer will either be broken or suckage... and does this mean that Pokemon actually die o.0? Omfg, they are going to be broken... Hydro Pump/Vine Whip/Flying recovery ftl... and what if you can change in the air? Mindgames...

Thanks to the TSA members who let me have a good time this weekend... it was sweet, can't wait until the next smashfest (at wherever)

You should change in the air. You could do every other move in mid air in Melee (except pull out a turnip with Peach)

Actually I agree with RaptorHawk, there's no way of knowing. For all we know Charizard might have a super gay super shinespike with infinite range and then both Squirtle and Bulbasaur combine and evolve into Venustoise from the movie and throw bombs at you.

Keitaro, Steven Blum denies that he and David Lucas are the same person. Youuuuu believe they are the same??

We have no way of knowing but some things are kind of obvious.

Like if I said Pit's recovery is going to suck, all the other 16 members of TSA would slap me.

HAI GUYZ!

Heh, yeah. No. Seriously. This is important.

I'm Chocobo, and this is a website. I talked to Cactuar and Pakman about me getting into TSA. Apparently I wasn't let in when Scar was because they thought it'd be funny, since me and Scar are BFF. I guess... if you think I'm lying, you can ask them, but they might say it's not true just to further annoy me. Scar told me to post here, and I really don't think much. I just do what he says because he goes to Penn. That's probably why he knees me. Umm... I guess I'll talk a little bit about myself. I'm a Samus main and my secondary is Fox. My low-tier is DK, because he pees blood. I met Cactuar and Pakman in the commuter lounge at our college. Me and Cactuar didn't get along well, but that's only because he doesn't have a soul. Once I got over that we were awesome, and have quiet mancrushes on eachother. Pakman inspired me to play DK because he's a silly *****. What ellllllse... I go to Drexel. Oh. Me and Scar have known eachother since we were 6. We were only friends because we both loved Jurassic Park and Shinobi 3 for sega more than we loved our families. We're rivals, like Ryu and Ken, or Good Burger and Mondo Burger.

I play Melee a lot. Like, a lot a lot. My biggest flaw is my lack of experience, which is due to the fact I haven't gone to enough venues. I didn't go to venues because I didn't think Cactuspants would let me into TSA Philly. I didn't think he'd let me into TSA Philly because I don't have enough experience. It's a vicious cycle. Um. I was at Scarfest, but I only really hung around Velocity, Triad, Scar, Pakman, and Ryoko. I think I said a hello to a lot of people, though. You'll remember me as the guy with the Chocobo jersey and the stunning beard. Like if Solid Snake had 52 hamburgers. I play Scar and Cactuar kinda frequently, and visit Velocity because I live near him.

When Brawl comes out, I'm maining Knuckles. My secondary will be Balloon Fighter, and my low-tier is Thwomp. Just so you know, my post count is low because I changed my gamertag like 3 or 4 times, so I have roughly that many old accounts. Lulz.

Ever and more,
Chocobo.

I REALLY don't think the pokemon are going to work like that. Just because Sakurai refered to it as stamina does not mean it will be like the current stamina mode.

But they also have another stat, which you might call stamina.
Which you MIGHT call stamina. That might makes me beleive it is something different. Which is backed up by....

If you keep fighting with the same Pokémon, or if you change them out too often, it’s not so good for the Pokémon.
This means that you can't pull a sheik and play JUST one pokemon....or rather it would not be smart to play as just one. This seems to mean that you would need to find a balance between playing and switching. Something that doesn't have anything to do with the current stamina mode.....think about it....what would be the difference if you just used ONE pokemon as apposed to more if they share the same damage meter?

I kinda figured that in terms of Stamina, they'd have their own meter, like a gradually decreasing bar. I the bar runs dry, your pokemanz start taking damage as if they were offscreen, or possible move sluggishly, though I think the former is just as likely as the latter.

Well if you can cycle through all 3 after an upkill waiting for respawn, then PKMN trainer can potentially be Zelda/Sheik.

i.e. DownB is the win button and Charizard gays everything.

Edit: Chocobo, Smash @ Velocity's tonight? I'm thinking from around 6-11ish. It would be cool if we could get another person though, since 1 on 1 first out for 5 hours is horribly upsetting.

Uhm, well obviously if I'm posting now we didn't go, lawlz. Based on our retardedness levels being over 9000 on the ride home, we're better off sleeping. If you do something with Ultz or Tuarz tomorrow, let me know. Also, I'll be around Thursday after my classes. I know you're not working but maybe you wanna come up? Jollies should be there too, Yayo (I love calling our friends by their awesome names) per normal. I'm assuming you've got something else planned, but the offer's out there.

Also, bro grabs.

the RRR are generally speaking extraordinarily accurate... RaptorHawk, a strange and disturbing truth you have uncovered. Perhaps the illness is a cover... for murder.
