Game & Watch is pretty nifty. If you favor an offensive approach, he's one of the better options, thanks to his relatively varied basic moves- Especially in the air, he's basically got one of every sort of specific-property move you'd want- And his very good recovery. Thanks to his Manhole, he's even got the potential to nullify a lot of projectiles and approaches.

I sure said that!

He might be good for me, then.

I'm not too big on using G&W myself. He doesn't really suit my playstyle well at all.

I'm not bad with him, though. (The only characters I did lose as when I did my "all characters, all stages" run were Little Mac, Pikachu, and Charizard)

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

Besides, popular fighters are easily learned how to beat.

Like Little Mac...;p

Fights with Mac involved turn into cases of Rocket-Tag Gameplay- he tends to either win fast or lose fast.

Mr. Game & Watch was my main back in Melee. He's still one of my more used characters nowadays, but as of Brawl I made Wario my main.

G-Dub was my main in Brawl and (despite my persistence in trying to learn other characters, AKA mai waifus) still my best character in 4 despite never practicing with him.

Game & Watch being able to duck under a lot of moves is also really useful. Holding the down button with Game & Watch just makes you avoid most grabs and quite a number of dash attacks.

What would you guys say is the most underrated/forgotten character in general?

Bowser Jr. (Although I also count the Miis, depending on legal status)

I would say Game & Watch and R.O.B., but they have a decent competitive following. I would go with Zelda. Just because Zelda is not a character with a lot of memes attached to her and she has never been good in a Smash game.

I just thought of an In-Universe reason why Shulk has terrible frame data. Unlike the rest of the sword characters, he doesn't actually hold his sword in his hand when he's not using it. So Shulk has to take time to pull the Monado off his back and then take time to put it away when he's done using it.

I actually often forget Bowser Jr is in this game.

I actually use Jr. sometimes. I kind of like the little brat and his not-siblings.

It's weird fighting with Jr. It's like you fight with his car more than with him.

If it was JUST Bowser Jr, I'd probably like him more. Like Bowser, but faster and weaker. Claws, teeth, spitting fire, and using his paintbrush for special attacks.

Not so cloney, but more Bowsery.

I do hardly use Jr as well. Which is odd since he was one of the 4 newcomers I correctly predicted. (alongside Mega Man, Little Mac, and Shulk)

Who would you say is the least well-known of the entire roster? I'm talking about general popularity, not popularity among hardcore games.

I'd say either Little Mac, Duck Hunt, Game and Watch, or ROB are the least well-known character in the game. Obviously the most well-known is Mario.

The character whom I sometimes forget is even in the game is probably Rosalina. Nothing against her, mind.

Mii Brawler is still my favorite. Helicopter Kick is so satisfying to KO with.

I can't forget about Rosalina because I hear people complaining about her all the time.

I literally have no forgotten characters for Smash 4. The entire series I like to forget that Pichu was in Melee. Maybe Young Link as well.

Pichu evolved into Blue Goggles Pikachu.

And Young Link devolved into cel-shaded Toon Link.

As a Toon Link sub-main, I'd like to disagree on the devolved statement
