Again, I don't think Smash's "Pokemon Stadium" stages are meant to be named like the console games. A Pokemon Stadium 3 stage wouldn't be "A stage based off of the nonexistent game Pokemon Stadium 3", it would be "the third stage named Pokemon Stadium".

Also, the stage doesn't really seem to be based off of the games with the same names, the stadium doesn't look anything like any of the ones from Pokemon Stadium.

I want there to be one Pokemon Stadium stage that utilizes four randomly selected non-Normal type forms for each match.

Yeah, I've said it before. I'll Chatter it as often as I need to.tongue

I sure said that!

I think I mentioned before what I want from Bug, Ghost, Dark, and Fairy. Psychic would probably be some sort of libary, with te books being levitated around as platforms.

I'd like Bug, Ghost, Fairy, and Steel.

Not sure how Steel would look. The Electric stage looks like what I'd expect Steel to be.

Steel, in my mind, would be a metallic pyramidal structure with a pit full of spikes in the middle instead of a point.

Dragon would be a yellow torii, a cloud of blue-purple fog coloring the area.

Fighting would bring up two high cliffs on either side, a salt-line sumo ring on a smaller rock in the middle.

... Just off the top of my head.

Like I said, I realize that, but it would still bug the crap out of me. I like thinking of it as a specific naming convention even if it really isn't one. I might even end up wincing every time I see the stage mentioned if there actually is a stage under that name. It just bothers me on a visceral level for some reason, and I really don't know why.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

Ghost would be a spooky mansion, with various objects possessed by Ghost-types floating around, and a Deadly Chandelier.

Dark would cut the lights, save for circles of light around characters, and extra light for fire effects.

I was thinking a Dark layout would be more about encouraging dirty fighting- Ghost is the Casting a Shadow type.

Yes, but I am married to my spooky mansion idea for Ghost. And it would be dimly lit by will-o-wisps anyway, so we can't cut the lights.

Perhaps a Dark stage would be full of booby traps.

Dark is a mix of both pragmatism and literal darkness (Moreso in the Pokemon themselves being nocturnal and/or dark-colored than the attacks themselves, which aside from Dark Pulse and Night Daze are pragmatic). The stage would probably be evil-looking, sort of both.

Maybe they'll do an "Ultimate Pokemon Stadium" that combines all the previous element types plus throws in a few more.

Or, alternately, with the talk of customizable fighters, maybe they'll let people pick and choose what elements they want represented in the Pokemon Stadium stage.

[up][up] Dark Pulse is still a move that is "filled with evil thoughts"

And Night Daze is the signature move of a Pokemon whose whole schitck is illusions- To the point where it lowers accuracy.

Maybe a dark forested theme with traps swinging out from the branches or under foliage?

Well, it's too bad a really cool character is probably not playable. Ah, so much potential. Wasted on a B move.

Well now you know how I feel about Toon Link not being decloned.

Let's stop being passive-aggressive over nothing, please.

There's a difference between being playable and a clone over not being playable at all. Better a clone and having the ability to play them then never having the chance at all.

At least you can have more fun with a character that exists. That's why I want him playable, because he's a very important Mario character that should be allowed to shine outside of being similar to other characters. All the Links, who are even different people entirely, do play similar in their base appearances, but they don't play extremely similarly in Smash either. They have widely different properties. Toad's only slightly different in the Mario Karts due to the fact he's a lightweight. And a slight bit in Super Mario Bros. 2 USA. Actually, I take that back, the Links in the various Zelda games play awfully differently due to the different controls and items. In the sequels to each specific set of games Toad is playable in, he plays the same as everybody else minus two games.

So there's quite a wide difference here, especially since Toad is almost always a clone in the Mario series gameplay-wise.

Entirely different.

The second Link was always a clone. Getting the character is something to play as. Nobody was really denied anything, because they still actually do not play the same either.

Nobody got the chance to play Toad in Smash. They are hardly the same situation at all. Not really comparable here. Also, the pouring salt in people's wounds who wanted to play as him in your first post is really not helping here.

Shadow?

And you're pouring salt in my wounds for me missing out on a character who very well could (and SHOULD) have a unique moveset.

Nobody was really denied anything, because they still actually do not play the same either.

That's your opinion.

Actually, I take that back, the Links in the various Zelda games play awfully differently due to the different controls and items.

So you just provided reasons why they shouldn't be clones.

In the sequels to each specific set of games Toad is playable in, he plays the same as everybody else minus two games. So there's quite a wide difference here, especially since Toad is almost always a clone in the Mario series gameplay-wise.

And this is a good thing why?

Let's stop being passive-aggressive over nothing, please.

I relate your disappointment about missing out on something to how I feel about missing out on something and you consider that passive-aggressive?

Remember speculating stages? That was fun. What Zelda stages do you think we'll see? Something from A Link Between Worlds would be fun.

I say there should be a Virtual Boy stage for the 3DS version, one that gives you complete headaches.

Signatures are for lamers.
