Banana or not, at least random tripping is gone for good.

As long as I'm enjoying a page-topper, Sakurai if you're reading this (somehow) you need to put Lip in Smash.

Saw the new character reveal via Twitter. Popping in to see if there's bitching and moaning about if Mewtwo won't be in...

Yep, there is. All I needed to know. Ta-ta for now.

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

Heck, even Lucario barely qualifies at this point.

First Mega Evolution you fight. First Mega Evolution you use. Signature 'mon of the gym leader who gives you the Mega ring. He's got a statue in the Tower of Mastery. Does Pikachu have a statue?

I'm not sure, but I bet Alfonzo has a replacement one for him.

Okay you're right. Lucario still counts. Jigglypuff doesn't though. She shouldn't have been in Brawl to be honest.

I'm loving this Alfonzo meme.

Anyway, nice to see Lucario back, since I considered it to be in the danger zone. I'm not that surprised, though.

As expected, Gamefaqs is flooded with "why is Lucario back?! this ruins the game for me!" threads. Not even somewhat-understandable "Lucario upsets me because he'll take a spot from someone I want", just "Lucario's inclusion inherently upsets me regardless of its impact on the rest of the roster" kind of stuff, as you'd expect.

Not sure why you think they should cut Jiggs. It's the second most popular Pokemon behind Pikachu, not to mention one of the original 12. Plus it's fun to play as.

[up][up]To some it doesn't matter, but Jigglypuff has some fairly feminine costumes.

It's probably safe to assume Jiggs is a female.

Is she really second most popular? That might be an old poll. Also original twelve or not Jiggs has zero relevance to the franchise right now. There's no point to her inclusion by the time Brawl came.

That Yellow Devil is going down.

I like that Jigglypuff can sing characters to sleep. That's sorta funny.

[up][up][up][up]What does that have to do with anything?

[up][up][up]I don't see what that means it should be cut. Perhaps if they were desperate for room, but as far as I can tell they don't cut characters just to make room for new ones. Plus, relevant character or not it has a unique playstyle that'd be a shame to lose. Like Mewtwo.

[up][up]I hate to burst your bubble, but I'm pretty convinced Yellow Devil is just a stage hazard, not a bawss.

..."It" isn't a human anyway. It's a Pokemon. tongue

I don't really like gendered pronouns, anyway. I'll be courteous enough to use them in regard to humans since it's considered rude not to, but otherwise I prefer to use neutral pronouns.

I hope Jigglypuff ends up being revealed some time later. She's awesome.

Jigglypuff has no gender differences in the games. Mewtwo is technically an it, the Pikachu is a male because he lacks the notch in his tail, it's safe to assume Lucario is male because there are more male than female in the games. Jigglypuff is entirely ambiguous.

Lucarios can be female, actually.

I'm half-expecting the Yellow Devil to be both a stage hazard and a boss, considering we've seen him with only one PC twice: once in the Mega Man trailer, once in this screenshot. That might not mean anything though, it's probably not that hard to obscure another character in the Kirby sceenshot at least.

EDIT: Man this topic moves fast/I'm slow. tongue

Jigglypuff has a bunch of female accessories, so it's probably female.

For what it's worth, I do assume they intend for Jiggs to be seen as female what with its hats, but I still generally prefer to use "it" for animals and other nonhuman life.

@Yellow Devil not a bawss

That's a pretty tight positioning for those characters if he's just a stage hazard. Also, in the Megaman trailer, the Yellow Devil appears to the right of stage, positioned like a Megaman boss, and Megaman is the only one on screen. It could be a hazard, but it could be a boss. And that would be a terrible waste of a potential boss character.

I am very much under the impression he's part of the Adventure Mode unless there's some conflicting report.
