Why is the Chikorita evolutionary line so bad?
The poster I quoted was right. Samus never had that mole in any Metroid game.I don't get it.
If you want a non-lord FE rep who isn't Anna, you needn't look further than this avatar:
The only starter I didn't box was froakie
i traded him for protean froakie
Every other starter got boxed. Even smug leaf. They all went downhill after gen 3. Gen 3 starters where amazing.

4 > 6 > 3 > 1 > 2 > 5
In terms of starters. Gen IV had a great trio all-around and VI was also pretty dang fantastic. III, I, and II were pretty average, and V's only saving grace was Serperior. And while Serperior is my personal favorite of all starters, it wasn't enough to save the gen from Samurott and, in particular, Emboar.

I thought it was mostly bots these days, are they programmed to type a random Kappa every 5 minutes or so

Speaking of Pokemon, have any Eeveelutions appeared as Pokeball Pokemon?
Needs access to more moves to leverage contrary

6 is just perfect. Something about them works well with each other thematically. Even meh like Delphox blends well when you see it with each other.
But Torterra's got them!

Wait, you get a free Lucario in BW2 as well?
how many games can you get one for free lol
Watch the Greninja trailer.
This guy gets it

You don't get a free one but you can catch a wild Riolu before you fight the first gym.
In fact, it's encouraged since the first gym is Normal-Type and Riolu is your only Fighting-Type choice at that point.

Sakurai: "What does that come from?"
Since we're talking about Pokemon, let's talk about Lucario's changes. First, stuff that are visible right away.
Lucario's Aura Buff
Sakurai has talked about this before in two POTDs. The first being the Aura Sphere gets a noticeable size difference at higher levels of aura. It was visible in the pic, so it was easy to see the difference. The next time was talking about how Lucario's recovery gets a larger range with higher levels of aura. That wasn't very easy to see in a pic.
But the clip in the direct shows a huge difference. When Sakurai said that in the POTD, I did not expect this at all. Glad that Sakurai is adressing the fact that the difference between higher and lower levels of aura were not clear.
Mega Lucario
Lucario's Final Smash is mega evolving into Mega Lucario. This was very much expected. Allows you to control it like normal but with max aura. The Side Special, Force Palm, looks much bigger there.
Another thing to note is that Extreme Speed actually does damage. Maybe it is only possible in Lucario's mega form, but I hope it is available in its normal form as well.
Attack Changes
There are two things here that aren't easily visible. GIF is slowed down to 1/3 speed during the new Back Airs.
One of the changes is a new Back Air. Lucario does it twice in the GIF. The first time is right at the beginning. The second time is on Luigi getting a KO. This new Back Air seems to have more start up lag (and a new animation), but seems to have more power as a trade off.
I was trying this out in Brawl with the same damage percentage for Luigi and Lucario and making Lucario use its Back Air. It was not a KO when Luigi was standing on the left part of the center diamond on Final Destination. It was pretty bad. Though Lucario does get an aura buff in Smash 4, it still should have killed Luigi easily at that percentage in Brawl. It also required a sweet spot in Brawl which made it really bad to use.
The other change is a faster Forward Air. You can easily miss it since it happens only for a short period of time. It happens right before Lucario does the Back Air on Luigi. That's a welcome change.

Lucario's Aura Buff
YOU MUST RECOVER *SDs*
of course Smashers use self-destruct for suiciding, they have to use a Pokemon term for everything
Starters would be:
1 > 4 = 6 > 2 > 5 > 3
One of the things that Gen I got completely right and no other generation has really came close in surpassing. 6 was promising initially, then the evolutions for Chespin and Fennekin were revealed and it just went all downhill. 2, 5 and 3 are close enough to where they could switch up depending on my mood.

Does Giratina show up in the beginning Pokemon lineup or something? I didn't see him.
Hey, Sakurai used it first - the term is official as early as Smash 64 iirc.
Speaking of Lucario's Aura buffs, he's going to be nigh-impossible to kill without gimping him or just directly hitting him all the way offscreen. That Up-B with high Aura is stupidly good.
We now have an Eevee so who cares about the abominations that are known as Eeveelutions.
I like them, but Eevee is cuter and better. <3

I know, but SDs, dittos instead of mirrors, etc.
Yeahhhhhhh! One of my favorites.
1. Chesnaught
2. Charizard
3. Infernape
4. Greninja
5. Blastoise
6. Empoleon
7. Venusaur
8. Swampert
9. Typhlosion
10. Delphox
11. Blaziken
12. Feraligator
13. Sceptile
14. Meganium
15. Torterra
16. Serperior
17. Samurott
18. Emboar
That's how I'd list them.
This is incorrect

Good job, again.
I'm really loving all these changes. I can't wait to try them out and see just how different it feels compared to Brawl.

Eh personally I beg to differ. I think 6 early forms were kinda lacking and it was the final form that made them truly defined. And 1 for me was pretty eh save for Blastoise.
*Avatar quote*
how can your listing of grass types be so, so wrong
1. Chesnaught
That's all I needed
tbh though, Grass is my favorite type, but other than my new Second Favorite pokemon ever, I don't like the starters too much.

meh Gen 1 is way overrated. They all become obese reptiles.
I'd say this is probably the most agreeable consensus. Id switch the last three placements around with each other but close enough.
Id say Dewott, Quilava and Grovyle are the best 1st stage starters.

As in "Heathcliff"
Okay, let stick with Smash topic please since we are getting off topic area right now.

Near the end of the lineup behind Lugia or something. It goes by really quick, it's ridiculous. I didn't see it until someone pointed it out to me that he was in.
Don't fight it.

Eww, that Eevee looks bad.
It did. It's in the back row just before Lugia and Kyurem.
Rayquaza is suspiciously absent though.
We already got a picture of Greninja earlier today. Get with the time zones, man!
I think that we'll get a troll pic. Maybe another non-specific shadow that may or may not show Ridley or Palutena.
