Every time Rex is discussed in this thread, I feel more and more sorry for him missing out on the roster.
it's ok we get elma in challenger pack #4 to coincide with the november announcement of xenoblade x on the switch

This may upset some, maybe it’s because I’m a bit more familiar with 2 than X but honestly Rex and Pyra/Mythra appeal to me more in terms of moveset potential than Elma.
Yeah but Elma's got GUNS.

And SHADOW CLONES.

and MECHAS.

You know what would be a great game that’ll never be made? Shonen Jump Ultimate Alliance.

tbh i like both about equally but if he wasnt dead rex would be my premier choice because his blade shenanigans would be suuuuuper interesting to see incorporated in a smash moveset

Tbh I can't imagine it being any more competently made than Jump Force was.

Needs more T-elos stepping on me
I see you are a man of culture as well

Okay. I'm picking a new avatar now. Help me out, Smashboards.


And just to be clear, whichever gets the most votes isn't necessarily the winner. The most convincing argument will probably do it.
Option 4, mainly because it satisfies both my FE and Pokemon bias.

But all of them are pretty good.

Anyone up for an arena?
I'm free right now.

Same with me.

Don't get me wrong, I think Elma has loads of moveset potential, but let's face it - her game wasn't exactly a smash hit. I know people hate it when I talk about sales being important, but I feel like they are. Whether you like it or not, XC2 broke series sales records and introduced a lot of people to Xenoblade. Even if Rex isn't popular among the hardcore fans, that's who most of the newbies would recognize. You'd appeal to far more people with Rex (or Pyra/Mythra) than you would with Elma.

Plus, Rex is a really popular request in Japan.

Can I ask why? Not angry at you, I’d just like to hear why you think that.

Good look with the premium blue.

And I still got it. :shades:
Honestly the premium blue kinda helped me decide.

2/4 clearly had the most people liking them and I figured I could save Jill+Nemesis for the inevitable RE3make hype. For now, Trainer Azura was the best.

Though Gentlepanda Gentlepanda 's favorite is definitely happening someday. It's too good not to.

Don't you dare use my own gif back at me. You're grounded, mister.

They both have equal moveset potential for me.

Honestly, I'm cool w/ Rex and Pyra making it into Smash. Personally, I was hoping that both them and Elma would make it into the base roster back in the day (obviously that didn't happen).

The only reasons why I support Elma more and think she's more likely is:

1. Xenoblade X is the only Xenoblade game I've actually played, so there's a bit of bias
2. Sakurai's statements regarding Rex specifically during the November 1 Direct (regardless of whether you think it means anything, it's still somewhat weird that Sakurai even talked about Rex's chances on roster at all)
