Doesn't it have legs inside the cone, like a skirt?

Fair enough, though.

I have a message from another time...

Mewtwo, Raichu, Lucario, Greninja, Sceptile, Gengar

My knowledge of Pokemon is very limited to mostly Gen 1.

Braixen does have a better design than Delphox, although it's a bit overly feminem for something that can come in both male and female. (Same thing for Kirlia, Gardevoir and Lopunny)

Delphox is a bit on the weird side and I think it would had been better if they had done the "robe" in a more Harry Potter-ish "cape" kind of design instead of the aged "lol wizards in dresses" cliché that is just beyond stupid.

  • I: Pikachu (you kinda have to)
  • II: Pichu (he was a fun little thing)
  • III: Sceptile (we need more Sceptile love)
  • IV: Lucario (it makes too little sense not to have him in)
  • V: Zoroark (I love Zoroark, and he could make a unique addition to Smash)
  • VI: Greninja (He really fits well)

...my list isn't very different from the actual game.

My main issue with Delphox's design is that the ear hair is way too large. It looks fucking weird.

I remember when Delphox was first leaked and many complained that it seemed to do away with the twig. (Common themes in evolutionary lines can disappear by the final form; see Blastoise's not-so-squirrely tail, Chesnaught's weird color scheme, and Greninja's lack of a bubble scarf.) Then when the official artwork revealed it to have had the twig all along (it just carries it in its sleeve), I thought that was a pretty clever design choice (a fox with a trick up its sleeve). Just not as clever as Braixen's witch broom tail. Overall, though, I think its design is a bit weak compared to its fellow final starters. I was originally going to choose Fennekin, but I jumped ship to Froakie after realizing just how cool I thought Frogadier looked, especially compared to Braixen.

When Greninja was leaked I was so confident it was a fake and even though I loved the design I couldn't really get very into it because of that.

Fast forward two days before X/Y was released and I find out it was real.

Greninja brought me extreme hype both in Pokémon and Smash Bros tongue

I remember thinking Greninja looked too strange to be a good final evolution for Froakie, and the tongue scarf really alienated me from the design at first. Even though it looked very unique, I was still convinced that this was the final form because it just made so much sense. Fast forward a few weeks later when the Gen VI games were released, and Greninja grew on me to the point of being one of my favorite (if not my favorite) Pokémon.

If only I cared to pick it up in Smash, but he seems to have a very high learning curve.

I really didn't think he did. He was one of my mains in Smash 4 when it first came out (I've stopped using him since... maybe I should pick him back up, he was really fun) and I was really good with him from the get go.

I think the biggest gripe I had with Greninja's Overly Long Tongue was that it reminded me a whole lot of Miley Cyrus frequently sticking out her tongue, and the games came out a couple of months after that one incident at the VMAs.

As such, MileyCyrus is what I chose to name my Greninja amiibo.

If you want to master Greninja you're gonna need to learn a lot of stuff.

If you do though, you can do combos that can do 68% or more.

Have you forgotten that over 90% of Smash's audience are LITERAL children?

I have reason to doubt that he chose to argue with "literal children" in a lengthy and obscure news article.

The giant Falcon Punch would be really cool as an official final smash.

All those stolen vehicles would be hilarious if they could be official.

Especially to use them against their original owners.

And the giant Falcon Punch needs to be this version.

I'd also argue that saying 90% of Smash fans are, let's just say, under the age of 13, is going a little extreme. A majority, sure, but 90%? That's a little...

I'm pretty sure the concept of Law having limits was a translation error. -Wanderlustwarrior

How the fuck did Melee go from being my primary game to my Berserk Button?

I'm afraid none of us know the answer. I can make a guess:

You dislike how more casual Smash players stereotype all tourney players as "Stop Having Fun" Guys?

I dislike Melee because the community is generally stuck up and toxic, and because the metagame is incredibly stale at this point.

I would go with Venusaur, Skarmory, Absol, Infernape, Meloetta, and Goodra. I know, I'm a weird guy, but it's part of the job description.

  • Gen 2: Suicune
  • Gen 3: Swampert (with mega-evo as Final Smash)
  • Gen 4: Garchomp
  • Gen 5: Zoroark
  • Gen 5: Goodra or Noivern.
