Binacle.

Joking aside, I can't think of any new Pokemon from Gen VI that would work... although Hawlucha is pretty cool.

Hawlucha would be simply awesome, come to think of it.

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if VI's representation was only through the Megas.

Well, Xerneas is confirmed to be in, so...

Anyone who assigns themselves loads of character tropes is someone to be worried about.

I think playable representation was implied. Pretty sure Xernes is either a Pokeball or stage element.

Xerneas is probably a Poke Ball Pokemon. Same will probably go for Yveltal.

honestly, I can't think of any Gen VI Pokemon that's both highly notable and the right sort of size and shape.

IDK, I think Greninja is highly notable and it's perfect for a fighting game. Maybe it could replace the Pokemon Trainer's Squirtle.

I still think that if another Pokemon Trainer shows up, it'll be a Hoenn trainer with Mudkip, Grovyle, and Blaziken, since those three Pokemon are all more notable than any of the other starters (Mudkip because I heard people like them, Grovyle because of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series, and Blaziken because of the new Mega and his general popularity.

Anyone who assigns themselves loads of character tropes is someone to be worried about.

You say there is no Gen IV Pokémon what would fit in? Then they have to make it so!

I mean, you can make stuff work as long as you put your mind into it.

[up][up][up]I've said similar things about Blaziken. Starter notability is one of those topics, apparently.

(Although Chesnaught and Greninja are both the goshdarndest badasses ever.)

We've already had a gen IV Pokemon, Lucario. :V

Also, why would the Kalos starters not be notable gen 6 Pokemon? That doesn't really make any sense...They're all humanoid too, so it's not really a stretch gameplay-wise.

It's not that the starters aren't notable, it's just some people here argue no one starter is any more important than another.

Which I would agree with, if not for the Ensemble Dark Horse status of ones like Blaziken and Greninja and Snivy and Mudkip

Yeah, maybe we should segue into something, as Pokemon representtion has proven to be one of Those Topics.

Sure, Ridley. I've said it before: Ridley's biggest unique asset should be his size. He's a Lightning Bruiser and Glass Cannon that is easily knocked around due to his size and average weight, but he's got good range and decent power to him.

I still say Zoroark's the one. He's got the build for a Lucario replacement and the movie appeal. I'd rather they not go back to Mewtwo, but its inclusion in X and Y makes it viable as well.

I'm aware. To date, there's no one Gen VI mon that has the right amount of buzz, barring the returned Mewtwo. It also feels wrong that Gen V should get the shaft on representation, though i suppose Gen III also did.

Mewtwo would be cool as long as he looks sleeker than he did in Melee. More like this.

I fell off the bandwagon when I found that I didn't have the time to play through Pokemon Black (though I've been meaning to get back to it when I can). I feel like if there were any really notable Pokemon in the past and upcoming generations that someone who hasn't played the games in a couple of years would've at least somewhat heard of them.

[up]I just realized, Mewtwo has Hartman Hips.

Place your bets on Mario Galaxy's theme!

Good Egg Galaxy? Gusty Garden Galaxy? Something else?

My personal bets are on Good Egg Galaxy. (Granted, if My Music comes back then we'll most likely have both.)

Several different ones, I think, including both of those.

I want the music switch to come back, is what I'm saying.

I have no reason to think otherwise.

Good Egg and Gusty Gardens are both shoe-ins.

Gen VI's "rep" will probably be Lucario, with his Mega form as either a stance change (a la Zelda/Sheik) or Final Smash.
