I don't think there'll be any more Pokémon... We have Pikachu, Lucario, Charizard, Greninja and I hope Jigglypuff, that's already five.

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).

Best Stage Bass ever.

@Sterok

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.

None of those things make the characters impossible, but the list was supposed to be characters you consider "likely".

True, Shantae is technically a possibility (she started in a video game and most of her appearances are on Nintendo consoles), but considering the sheer limitations of third party presence in Smash... to call her inclusion a long shot is an understatement.

Fawriel,

If it's about other people's comments about Ridley's choice in garments, you're aware he's always naked, right?

Because that was Jr. DK wasn't in MK until 64.

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.

I already knew DKC Donkey is an aged up Jr. If Jr. were to end up in smash, it'd kinda be like Melee's case with Link and Young Link, but they could probably change up the story to make DK Jr. Donkey and Candy Kong's son and Diddy's cousin.

I wonder if there will be a category of trophies dedicated to non-playable third party characters.

I'm kind of expecting that to be the case. It'd be a way of acknowledging/commemorating third-party characters without needing to make them playable in some way.

...But I'd need to see more than just Rayman before I'm content with my guess though.

They'd better be careful with those, or this game will be so utterly screwed in a couple years.

Are people hating on Torterra here? One of the best Grass starters? For shame.

torterra be bitchin yo.

honestly the only generation where the grass starter hasnt been bitchin is gen 2, where chicorita sadly doesnt measure up to cindaquil or totadile in either badassitude or adorable-ness.

It's not like it's multiple people. I seem to be the only one not down with Boreterra.

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.
