Jiggs is confirmed female?

I know Ivysaur is female thanks to the yellow thingy in its bulb.

It's not confirmed- There's no morphological differences between male and female Jigglypuff- But the ribbons and sunhats in its alternate costumes are decidedly feminine.

I sure said that!

I've never been able to think of Super Smash Bros' Jigglypuff as anything but female.

The one that followed around Ash and company in the anime either, really.

In fact before game-stated genders I thought that all Pokemon were one gender. All the girly Pokemon like Jigglypuff, Clefairy, Chansey, Jynx and Kangaskhan were all female....and fortunately when genders came out I was a little more right.

...though Smash's Ivysaur I thought was a male because I didn't know about the seed. Oh well.

You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stay

There was also that Ivysaur's voice was female in the Japanese version of Brawl. Ivysaur having a male voice in the English version might be a case of Lost in Translation.

@Nap: It's like you went out to create a character that tournament players would despise. Then again, Peach was widely-used in Melee, so maybe not.

[up][up]Actually I was specifically trying to make her less hateable for tourney players since all her items have advantages rather than disadvantages (If Sakurai made it I'm sure he'd include a joke item somewhere, I was specifically avoiding that). I was looking towards how they handled Teddie back then, since most people consider him good but not OP (that dubious honor belongs to Aigis and Mitsuru so uh).

To be fair, I'm pretty sure Anna as the Random Number Goddess is just a fan thing, not really based on anything official.

Except for the whole "highest stat is luck, has Rightful God as a bonus boss" thing. It might not be stated but I have a feeling the developers like the idea.

I always suggested having Crasher Wake be the Pokemon rep who fights on his own instead of actually using Pokemon.

If you don't mind Nap, I'd like to critique your Anna moveset:

  • I love the idea of a random-weapon system for Anna's specials, very reminiscent of Dissidia!Gilgamesh.
  • I also think her normals are pretty much perfect, speaking as someone that hasn't played Awakening.
  • How about letting Anna hold the B button to let her keep fishing for a preferred item, for players that don't want to use the currently stored item? Of course, the probability would be the same, so she could still get the same item multiple times in a row.
  • I like the idea of the Side B also using the item grab, but what led to a second special using them instead of some other kind of move?
    • What would happen if Anna tried her Side B without storing an item first? Would nothing happen like a DK trying Hand Slap midair, or would there be a "non-action" animation like an Olimar failing his Pikmin Pluck?
  • If i could make a moveset adjustment suggestion, instead of Counter, Anna's Down B could be Lucky Seven, a buff special that adds invincibility and distance to all her dodges and to any move that uses invincibility frames.
  • I can't wait to see what your idea for her Final Smash will be.

Anyway, if Nap can plug a moveset (tongue), here's my moveset for Plusle and Minun.

Well, there goes my theory of it being Smokescreen. tongue

Anyway, interesting that Greninja is intended as a kind of expert character, like Ness.

I really hope there's a lengthening shadow effect while the move is charging.

The Mario Bros. are only from Brooklyn in non-canon material though. Earth only exists (or only gets mentioned) in the movie, the TV shows, and Mario is Missing!
I prefer to think of them as being from Brooklyn because I'm a native New Yorker which makes me automatically biased toward anything from New York, especially if it's from the boroughs.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

It's too bad the trophy quiz made me give up on the possibility of Tiki, for similar reasons.

Nah, as much hijinx as the idea of using its own tongue as scarf could be capable of, Greninja is far too composed for it to be used as such.

I sure said that!

Close, it's just a pic of Greninja.

@Tech Powah: Side B without any items would probably have a non-action animation, like she starts to throw something but realizes she has nothing. The idea mostly came from the javelin and hand axe weapons, honestly. Plus, Anna throwing a book or something would be completely in character.

I had a different idea for a new Down B only because WFT already has the buff thing. Locktouch (should probably be Steal but that's not an ability in Awakening): A command grab that causes little damage but lets her sneak behind them. She'll take any items the character happens to be holding (in competitive play this could still be used against Peach or Link primarily.)

Final Smash would probably be Rightful God: a super mode where all her weapons become proc weapons and have their various effects (Lance becomes Luna, Sword becomes Sol, Axe becomes Vengeance, Bow becomes Astra, Staff becomes Miracle. I'd have to think of something for tomes).
