Agree on the size, weight, and the PSI magnet. I'll edit that part in. Also like that attack idea, although it sounds more like a smash attack.
Well, Lucas and Ness already use extended PSI to an extent, so I feel like Giegue/Giygas should as well, but with PSI Rockin (perhaps the non-Omega kind?)

See Lucas' dash attack for the prime example of this.

More supporters and Swamp Castle's Moveset have been added to the OP!

Can you guys help me revive some other threads?

Had to look up a video to see what you mean, and I agree completely.

Thank you! I try.

I suppose, if I support them *shrug*. Show me what you've got.

I'll pass reviving the others, but thanks. (Seriously, though, you should revive my Daitoryo thread. It's been dead for awhile now.)
I shall try, though I don't really know how to go about reviving a thread.

Oh, and I added another thread to that list I just posted.

If anything, PK Rock in should be a neutral move that you can charge up and save the charge. Once released there should be a medium ranged attack that's really powerfull.

Took this from me never having enough pp in earthbound to use that move, so I often had to save it up.

I'd much rather have Giygas be playable over Porky myself. Both of them appear in two games apiece, but Giygas is the reason everything is kicked off, even if Porky is the one who finishes it. Plus he just seems a lot more intimidating is part of it as well.

Exactly.
I love Porky's backstory and the character as a whole, but he was only the antagonist in one game, and even then he was influenced by Giygas.

My thoughts exactly.

You can probably tell by my profile pic, but I want Porky WAAAY more than Giygas. Although if the EB/Mother series magically got four slots, then we could have Ness, Lucas, Porky, and Giygas. And if Giygas was in SSB4, I'd probably want him in his Mother form instead of his EB form. It'd be much more Smash-friendly, plus we would be getting some Mother rep.

I recently thought of the idea of having Porky and Giygas as one character.
It would be sort of a Rosalina and Luma type character, with a mid-possession Porky (in the red and black stripes suit) using EB Giygas as some attacks, while also attacking with physical power sometimes to.

It could work, but I would like to see Porky in a seperate slot. It would make more since to have him in his old/Bed Mech form, due to it being his latest incarnation. :smirk:

Yeah, this would be cool.
Is worry about this being to big, and still being OP if Sakurai shrunk it down, but Crusade proved that it could work.

And also, if a certain someone was making a Smash fan game, and if they were considering to have Porky much later on, what form should he take? Besides the Bed Mech.

Yeah. I remember reading an article about how the Bed Mech's model in Brawl was HUUUUUUUGE! It was way bigger than the actual size it was in Mother 3. That's why Crusade reassured us that it was possible. (D***, why haven't they released it on MAC?!)

Well, the Spider Mech would be the obvious choice, but I feel like it doesn't have as much moveset potential as the Bed Mech. And Porky without a mech? Well, what the h*** would he do? :facepalm:

I know, I wish that Crusade did a Mac release too. Then I can have an understanding of a Smash Fan Game for Affinity (Fan game I'm making, it has a Dojo thread).

Meh, I am not exactly sure what Porky would do without a mech.
Though I do like the Porky and Giygas thing.

Oh! Cool, you're making a Smash fan game? That's pretty awesome.

But yeah...Sorry for getting off topic! :facepalm:

I suppose by Giygas we're mainly talking about Giegue right? Considering Giygas doesn't even have a physical form in Mother 2. If so, count me in. He's been in two mother games as the main antagonist (and was supposed to make a cameo in Mother 3 from what i understand), and would make an incredibly surprising and unexpected addition to the roster, even if he does sort of resemble Mewtwo.

How cool would it be to use both Mewtwo and Giegue together in battle? Of course the only problem is, how do you take a character who is effectively powerful beyond imagination to the point of incomprehensibility and place them in a fighting game on equal standing with Princess Peach? I know the same thing can be said for Ganondorf as the King of Evil and all but still, limiting Giegue's limitless power may dull his character somewhat. After all, isn't his power what makes him so iconic? That he has to be killed by emotional weaknesses and prayers because conventional weapons do nothing? Besides the whole scary final battle thing.

This is his biggest obstacle (if we're not including overrepresentation of the Mother franchise). However, if it worked for Ganondorf, whose gimmick was that he's the holder of the triforce of power and all, I think they could make it work for Giygas/Giegue.

The same can be said of Palutena since she is a goddess, so I don't think it would be an obstacle for Giygas. Also, I support. Will probably do a moveset another day. I'm too tired to do one now.

I don't know too much about the Earthbound series, but I like what I see in Giygas (which should be what he ought to be called if he was playable). I agree he needs to be in his Mother 1 form to work. That way that the three Earthbound characters of Ness, Lucas, and Giygas each represent one of the games. I support him being in.

Despite Giygas being one of my favorite characters ever, I don't want him if Mewtwo returns since he's very similar design-wise to Giygas and is more recognizable. If Mewtwo doesn't come back though, I totally support.

Oh, boo. They're only as similar as Jigglypuff and Kirby are.

Well they are both also psychic. Jigglypuff can't suck up people and copy them like Kirby does.

Granted, there are a lot of things you can do with PSI and Giygas is far more powerful than Mewtwo, so you could give him an original moveset.
