True, better his onesie than his thong.
Six is pretty easy to see, not counting DLC. Besides Jigglypuff, Mewtwo was talked about in an interview, so he's very likely to at least be considered for playable(whether or not he is is another story).
Shadow?I don't understand how Shantae being third party rules her out or how Cranky showing up on a stage rules him out. Nor how Sceptiple having competition does. Explain?
Shantae being third party kills her chances because third party characters are supposed to be as limited as possible, in order to ensure that the focus is still Nintendo. Plus there's the fact that Sakurai has said that a potential third party candidate needs to be, and I quote, legendary. As in, an icon. Snake, Sonic, Mega Man, and Pac-Man are all widely recognizable icons. Shantae is a long way from attaining thay status, despite increased popularity in recent years.

Depending on who you ask, they're the same character. And besides, you can't convince me that the main character of the arcade Punch Out is Little Mac, but Mac's got an arcade-styled alt in this game.
They'd better be careful with those, or this game will be so utterly screwed in a couple years.

It's odd. There hasn't been a single generation where Grass was my favorite starter. For me, it goes Fire/Water, Water, Fire, Fire, Water, and finally all 3 in generation 6, leaning towards Grass just because I hadn't had a grass favorite yet and Chesnaught was as close as they were going to get.
I liked Grovyle best out of all stages of G3 starters, though.
