Rivalries:
Alright. With the final fighter out I’m gonna give my final list of character rivalries for ultimate, if arcade mode had a “fight your rival!” segment.

:ultmario: vs. :ultsonic: i don’t think this one needs explaining
:ultluigi: vs :ultfalco: the two main co-pilot/sidekick/wingmen of their franchises. Plus we got cocky vs. timid
:ultpeach: vs :ultzelda: nintendo’s two major princesses
:ultdaisy: vs :ultchrom: echo fighter royalty added in Ultimate
:ultbowser: vs :ultincineroar: spinning fire villains (Incineroar is a heel wrestler)
:ultdoc: vs :ultwiifittrainer: two fighters obsessed with health
:ultrosalina: vs :ultpalutena: the roster’s two major benevolent gods
:ultbowserjr: vs :ultdiddy: mini versions of Mario’s two major villains
:ultpiranha: vs :ultgnw: the two most bizarre fighters
:ultdk: vs :ultbanjokazooie: Rare’s golden children
:ultkrool: vs :ultkingdedede: fat greedy kings
:ultyoshi: vs :ultwario: gluttonous Mario side characters who got their own spinoffs
:ultlink: vs :ultcloud: do I need to explain here?
:ultsheik: vs :ultgreninja: ninjaa
:ultganondorf: vs :ultsephiroth: again, is an explanation needed?
:ultyounglink: vs :ultpichu: the forgotten melee fighters who are young versions of the original 12
:ulttoonlink: vs :ultike: i don’t know why but pirate vs Ranger feels like a good matchup to me.
:ultsamus: vs :ultmegaman: nes arm cannon gun wielders
:ultzss: vs :ultolimar: outer space survivalists
:ultridley: vs :ultwolf: space pirates
:ultdarksamus: vs :ultdarkpit: dark doppelgängers
:ultkirby: vs :ultpacman: super gluttonous balls
:ultmetaknight: vs :ultcorrinf: spinney Swordfighter who can grow wings
:ultfox: vs :ultfalcon: fiery kickin bounty Hunter pilots
:ultpikachu: vs :ultpyra:/ :ultmythra: the main mascot Pokémon vs the main mascot Blades
:ultjigglypuff: vs :ultrob: these two were just left over
:ultmewtwo: vs :ultness: master psychics
:ultpokemontrainer: vs :ultjoker: I don’t think this one needs explanation either.
:ultlucario: vs :ultbrawler: Fighting type Pokémon against fighting type Mii
:ultlucas: vs :ultrobinf: for reasons unknown to me, this was on a list of potential death battle matchups I saw once and it stuck with me ever since. No idea what they have in common though.
:ulticeclimbers: vs :ultduckhunt: NES duo characters
:ultmarth: vs :ulthero3: major mascot characters of rpg franchises that really only have notoriety in Japan despite heavy marketing and vocal western fanbases
:ultroy: vs :ultrichter: descended from greatness, and both of their games started out as Japan exclusive
:ultlucina: vs :ultisabelle: this one just makes sense to me, idk why
:ultbylethf: vs :ultshulk: someone else on the boards have me this one and they had a reason but I don’t remember what it was and i’m pretty sure it was a spoiler.
:ultpit: Vs :ultsora: again, this one needs no explanation
:ultvillager: vs :ultsteve: avatar characters from life sim/town building type games
:ultlittlemac: vs :ultminmin Arms battles are just boxing from a distance
:ultinkling: vs :ultsnake: gunners who also sneak
:ultswordfighter: vs :ultgunner: mii vs mii
:ultryu: vs :ultkazuya: they we’re rivals in Street Fighter x Tekken
:ultken: vs :ult_terry: they we’re rivals in CVS.
:ultbayonetta: vs :ultsimon: magical monster hunters
I’d swap the Jigglypuff/R.O.B/Piranha Plant/Game and Watch/Kirby/Pac-Man match-ups around

:ultjigglypuff: vs :ultkirby: : Pink Puffball Battle
:ultpacman: vs :ultgnw: : Simple and Old
:ultpiranha: vs :ultrob: : Bionis vs Mechonis Generic enemy with different subtypes (R.O.B takes from SSE here)

your mom
I simply Do Not Vibe with it as I cannot in good faith call it a bad game
That's completely fair and I respect that

I will say however that one of the reasons I enjoyed Dread so much is because the Flash Shift reminded me of the mobility in Hollow Knight

Right now I'm trying to find the best option for me to watch the 1986 Super Mario Bros. anime movie.

The options present on YouTube come in so many different shapes and sizes.

Well, I don't wanna stress out more people.


Things are heating up in the Pokemon Leaks comnunity
Before I get into the leak drama, can we talk about how Stupid Poketubers can be.

BDSP hit shelves yesterday and you tubers are all like

“OH MY ARCEUS BIG LEAK DATAMINE coming”

Like what the **** so they think BDSP datamines will reveal, cresselia?

It’s a faithful remake for a reason.
Some dude (Eclipse) being exposed as a fraud, same dude caused another leaker to pretty much give up (kinda) because all he did was peddle misinformation. Eclipse supposedly has a sock puppet account where he pretends to be a Japanese leaker but it's Google translated Japanese and yeah.

And Centro is still fraudulent.
Anyway back to this,Eclipse was starting fights with the Chinese Riddler. Even though Evlipse was just copying info or making the most basic speculations. Which is why I never really cared for him, he was just useful to see what Info he put out from others.

The Chinese Riddler called him out and started a fight for Eclipses bull****, ultimately saying he’s tired of people stealing leaks in the community and was going to stop posting real leaks. For reference the Riddler leaked all of Sun and Moon’s dex, even Blacepheon who didn’t exist in Sun and Moon, but was added in Ultra. . He also came back late onto sword and shield with some info but I don’t remember the full extent there. Flash forward to the current leak season, he’s the one who posted the image collage that everyone’s been talking about.

Before leaving Twitter either temporally or permanently, he said one last form that’s coming. Which was:

Water Steel Goomy line based on some Yokai with a shell
I want a regional Sudowoodo that’s a low poly tree.
Regional line for Sudowoodo that looks like the cut tree sprites would be great.
The column he's referring to
There was a problem fetching the tweet
Interesting how Banjo went from Unreasonable to us having a lot of Microsoft content. Really shows how strong their relations grew in the past few years.

The most 'exciting' thing will be "You can find these old Pokemon in the new Underground stuff" lmao

Well, if it’s not one thing, it’ll be another.

Nintendo speculators just seem to thrive off of blatantly clickbaity fake leaks.

Yume Nikki is one of those games that I feel I played wayyyyyyy back then, even though I played it this year.

Funny how those things work, huh?
