Charizard and Greninja announced for Smash Bros.

I love these new additions, one of the GOAT Pokémon and one of the best of the new ones. Greninja looks fun to play as well.
 
Why are people thinking Jigglypuff is dead? It's a 3-game veteran and even with its addition there will still be less Pokemon than in Brawl.
 

Do you have a clearer image of this?

Solo Charizard is a big Huzzah from me. He was always the one I'd choose to be with the Pokemon Trainer. And they picked the best Mega Evolution form.

Now Greninja, looks damn good and fun to play.
 
So glad. I've wanted Greninja to be included in Smash since it was revealed but didn't think it would actually happen.
 
Greninja is the best possible choice they could have made for a new Pokemon rep. Not even mad about the reality possibility of Mewtwo sitting things out again.

'Zard getting his own character slot is great, too. Easily my favorite to play as of the PT trio.
 
I'm going to miss Squirtle and Ivysaur :( but Charizard is awesome as fuck and Greninja is a nice choice for a new Pokemon rep. I think we'll still get Jiggz and Mewtwo for 6 total reps
 
Of course Charizard would be in this game.

Greninja on the other hand.
HOLY FUCK I AM SO CATCHING THIS BADASS IN POKEMON Y!
 
Meh. I was hoping for something more retro or offbeat than another (2) Pokemon. I fear what this means for Jigglypuff though...
 
I dislike starter favoritism a lot; complaints about Charizard wanking seem to become more legitimate by the minute. I don't know whether to blame Megaevolutions or the 3DS's hardware for the Red/Pokemon Trainer casualty. That was one of the coolest concepts of Brawl.

Putting heels on samus was dumb. No tears would have been shed if they just dropped T&A suit.
 
Not sure I'm okay all the Pokemon reps to be honest. Assuming Jigglypuff gets confirmed, that brings it up to a total of 5 characters. That's pretty excessive for a franchise that already has hundreds of unique critters already in Smash with Pokeballs.
 
RIP Captain Falcon

I think it's worth noting that Captain Falcon has never been revealed before the games actually came out. (Well, Brawl did, but he was in spoilers)

I have a feeling the same thing will happen with this game. Falcon, Game and Watch, Jiggs, Ness etc will probably only be revealed right before 3DS launch.

Honestly, I think it'd be really neat to have them NOT show up on the site at all. The characters will all remain secret until people start unlocking them, not unlike what happened with Pokemon XY.
 
Greninja seems very cool, great addition...

Though I'm still waiting for that Mewtwo. He's gonna be in, just like Jigglypuff.

Kinda sad that Squirtle and Ivysaur (most likely) got axed.

I don't get Sakurai's newfound adversion for switching characters. I loved them, they were unique in their own right.
 
Honestly, having five or six Pokemon characters makes way more sense than having three Star Fox characters, given the popularity of the two series and possible character variety.

Yes.

You'll have no issue with that. It's the final form of the Water starter.

Yeah I forgot, what I should've posted was that I am gonna use that frog starter pokemon.

Oh and is Greninja's scarf....it's tounge?
 
They showed Samurai Goroh running around as an Assist Trophy. They're not going to keep him and axe Falcon. The good captain will return.

As for Greninja... SO COOL! I wonder if they'll incorporate his Protean ability somehow. In Pokémon XY, it allows Greninja to assume the typing of whatever move he uses, I.E. Grass Knot turns him into Grass-type, Shadow Sneak turns him into Ghost-type, etc.

At least her heels gave her recovery! :P

Speaking of which I guess this means no more Up B tethers.

Honestly, I'm fine with five or seven six Pokemon. Brawl had four with one having a threeway transformation. Hell, Project M has freaking SEVEN, and that feels fine.

My biggest worry is that they won't add Jigglypuff due to this line of thinking. Pokemon is one of Nintendo's biggest franchises if not their biggest franchise at this point. It's remained consistently popular while Mario and Zelda (as much as I love them, 3D World, Skyward Sword, and ALBW were great) feel like their popularity is slowly waning. Pokemon has earned five or six slots.

The only person that haven't shown with a tether that's left is Link right? Olimar and Sheik both got their tethers removed.

The Rep limit is looking to be 5 this time around (That's what Mario and Zelda are sitting at currently), and Pokemon currently has 4, so chances are one of them ain't making it.

Yea I'm sure Sakurai wanted to add Jigglypuff but one the fundamental laws of nature, the rep limit stopped him.
