I recommend either sticking with that setup or stop playing the demo so much until you change the controls with the full version. I fully intended to switch them ASAP, but I was distracted by shiny newcomers and only switched them (and turned off tap jump) today. Now I feel like I'm starting from scratch. Still, I guess nobody can stop you from playing the demo (nothing would stop me).
Nah, I to keen to play smash to stop, beside the L being shield and R being Grab is to sunk into my mind that I think I'm fine, maybe.

Also do you like my analyses of link Fair? (Please say YES)

It's good, but I really want an analysis of Zack Fair.

I like Link's bow. While I'd prefer a faster one, it still has its uses. His bow was actually my favorite move in Melee, since in my young mind, I was a bow-sniper with the ability to hit anyone anywhere.

Zack Fair is the main character from Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core. He was just joshing you/being a smart ass/busting your chops/pulling your leg/ruffling your feathers.

As a Pikachu main since Smash 64, I would feel ecstatic if a Female Pikachu alt was a thing in Smash.

Who is to say the Jigglypuff in Smash isn't male? Just because it wears female hats doesn't mean it is female. :p

Then wouldnt that make Pikachu a possible female as well?
No, because male and female Pikachus have different shaped tails. The one in Smash is male. Plus, he has Ash's (male) Pikachu's voice.

Edit: Though Purin is usually female, so it is safe to assume the one in Smash is female.

Oh yeah forgot about that tail thing:025:

Edit: Though Jiggs is usually female I love the male Wigglytuff from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky

Well, this has been going around, so I figured it would be good to post it here. It's a rather interesting analysis of Robin as a defined character. It's a great read for those who think of Robin as "bland."

I remember reading this. We discussed how Robin is more of an aesthetically custom character instead of an avatar.

I hope Pikachu can keep the moves it gains from cosplaying in the ORAS contests.

Belle Pikachu learns Icicle Crash. ICICLE CRASH. Raichu would kill to have that in his arsenal to take on Grass and Dragon types.

And Pikachu can learn Fly legally via HGSS's Pokewalker route downloads.

But the only Ice move it and Raichu had was HP Ice.

But now Pikachu can wear a dress, and embrace its cold inner heart.

Nah, I just like Ice type Pokemon and Ice type moves the most, and it's nice to the mouse get a proper Ice move since it gets pretty much everything else.

Cryogonal/Jynx/Articuno da bess.

Robin would be good at catching Pokemon at the least. He can hit a snake with a rock 10 yards away. He'd break the Safari Zone rules no problem.

Poor Raichu. Doomed to forever be the ignored older brother. Seriously, you'd think it would make sense try to make Raichu more viable (like you know being able to use the dang Light Ball) and give people better reason to use the Pikachu line instead of trying to pretend it doesn't exist because of some stupid fear it may overshadow Pikachu.

Raichu will never live up to his younger brother, which is ironic because it should be the other way around.

I like Raichu more than Pikachu. It is orange, chubby and have a whip as its tail. A shame its existence is mostly ignored, but it can't be helped.

Sucks because Raichu is both cool and adorable. Shame that he's pretty much the Chrom of Pokémon.

Raichu did get a few stat buffs in XY though, which is nice.

You either go with Pikachu holding a Light Ball and die in one hit with your less-than-Kadabra Defense, or you go Raichu and experiment with your item choices.

There needs to be more Final-Evolution-only moves to warrant Raichu use though. Hyper Beam and Giga Impact just don't cut it anymore.

I chose Pikachu over Richu because, well, it's PIKACHU:pikachu:

That being said, it wouldn't do a whole lot of harm it both Richu and Pika got buffs (and Pichu, he is actually me favourite, so cute XD but so weak:urg:

anyway, when play pokemon y once, I was trying to get a light ball, (never ever being able to get one, ever) and just siad stuff it and leveled up my pikachu normal. Eventually gave him the meteorine thing (the one that boost def and S.def when unevolved) and HOLY CRAP, it could tank an earthquake form a Pokemon of similar level (give or take). Man it was good, than I gave up my Pika of a Joltoen (my favourite Electric type and tied first fav Eevee Evolution, with vaporeon and Leafeon)

Two @NonSpecificGuy likes. An improvement. Yay. :denzel:

Pokemon talk, eh? Been playing this stuff since I was six. Catching Mewtwo back in the Red and Blue days was the ****. It made every other 5-7 year old jealous just because you had this super awesome Pokemon nobody else had. Of course it also made you feel like a complete winner on the inside, but feel like complete crap when someone had a MEW and you didn't. :151:
