He saw Grayninja and thought about it shoving its long, slender tongue up his butthole and wind its way through his intestines.
>>267954057
edgy
>>267954171
Not everything is edgy just because it makes you hard.
>>267953719
Biasedman does it again!
I bet he gets to pick every non 3rd party character too. So shit picks like Rosalina, Lucina and Shulk were his idea.
>Edge OUshitterfrog gets in
>Gardevoir doesn't
>Furcario gets in
>Mewtwo doesn't
WOW fuck Sakurai
>>267954775
>gardevoir
>>267953719
>he took out Pokemon Trainer and only kept Charizard
>Lucario is still in
>Mewto, which a lot of people want back still isn't in
>>267954775
>Gardevoir
You just want her for fap materialDon't deny it
>Furcario gets in
He's one of the most popular Pokemon, of course he's going to remain
>Mewtwo doesn't
Mewtwo's old and busted
>>267954876
I love that once an image macro gets used enough, you can use only an incomplete version and everyone understands the meaning and context immediately.
>>267954775
>Actually wanting Gardevoir and Mewtwo
Thank fuck you're not in charge of the roster.
>>267954919
Define a lot. Nobody I know wants him back. Lucario has a similar, better move set. Deal with it
>>267954930
>old and busted
>featured pokemon in x/y to pander to nostalgia fags
>TWO different mega evos
>>267953719
He does
but when he does, he has to listen to Gamefreak's standards of having said pokemon
>>267954283
It does if you have a knife for a dick.
>>267954919
To be fair even if he wanted Pokemon Trainer to stay it couldn't because of his stupid rule that both versions must share the same roster, and everything transformation related had to go.
>>267953719
....so? it was about the new gen representation, dont try to turn it into mewtwo butthurt, geees.
>lucario picked twice over shittwo
can mewtwofags get more btfo?
>>267955254
sakurai is confirmed for a furfag
>>267954876
So it's okay for other shitty female characters to make it in to appease waifufags but not Gardevoir?
>>267955150
Or if only knives get you hard.
>>267954775
Fuck that I want Deoxys, Azumarill, Electivire, or Sableye.
>>267954919
>Mewtwo and Lucario both get in
>Everyone on /v/ screams CLONES CLONES CLONES
DAT SAKURAI EGO
Should I respect their creation and only put in characters that really deserve and represent the series?
NA I'LL JUST PUT IN WHO I THINK IS COOL
LIKE THIS NINJA FROG
>>267955476
Not really. They'd be like Ness and Lucus or Fox and Wolf.
>>267955370
Fuck off furfag
>>267955370
it's just a shitty choice for smash
>>267955551
>furfag
Gardevoir is not even based off an animal, you fucking retard.
>>267955675
Please list reasons, and refrain from using insults like 'waifufag'
We already know this though. Gamefreak's request for Sakurai this time was "save a spot for a X/Y Pokemon". They don't actually give a shit if Mewtwo or whatever is in or not.
>>267955847
>Gardevoir is not even based off an animal, you fucking retard.
>frogs aren't animals
>>267955847
>Gardevoir is not even based off an animal
>>267955847
Not than anon, but what good would she be? Your waifu a shit btw
>>267955476
I know metwo's a literal clone, but the only thing him and luke share is their B move, somewhat.
Everything else, from the way the play and their weight class is different.
>>267955847
No one cares about your shitty poke waifu not getting in anon
>>267955924
>>267956020
>Gardevoir is a frog
is this some sort of meme? Because I'm pretty sure Gardevoir is based off of a royal dancer
Sakurai is the end-all-be-all of what goes into Smash. Anyone who thinks otherwise is dumb
>>267956329
>Because I'm pretty sure Gardevoir is based off of a royal dancer
Yup, and Polywrath is just based on a wrestler.
>>267955847
>Please list reasons, and refrain from using insults like 'waifufag'
Because she's even less important than Pokemon like Jiggs, Greninja and Charizard.
>>267956359
Who?
>>267956329
I always thought it was just supposed to look like a girl growing up
Ralts=baby
Kirlia=Child in a tutu
Gardevoir=adult in a dress
Mega Gardevoir=Woman in a wedding dress
>>267955532
It's funny because Sakurai made a better choice than Game Freak would have made.
This guy is a sped for wanting Gardevoir in Smash but on what fucking planet does Gardevoir look like a frog?
>>267956570
Sakushit pls go
>>267956065
Didn't stop them from crying about Wolf
>>267956640
If Game Freak was in charge, they would have added shitty Pokemon like Blaziken and Mewtwo. Be thankful.
>>267954057This is my fetish
>>267956657
>waifufags think they can marry Gardevoir
>she's amorphous
>>267956881
>Implying I'm not a Grimer
>>267956812
Aren't they going to be in that Pokemon Tekken thing?
Bullfuckingshit game freak didn't demand Lucario stay in, it's pretty much their Lightning.
>>267957093
Silly Anon. Pickachu's the electric type.
>>267955532
If Sack of Rye wanted to add a Gen VI rep, then as far as i'm concerned, there were only to choices: Hawlucha or Greninja. So there's no problem here. Either of them would be finebut both would be the best
I distinctly remember Sakurai saying the choices of the characters on the roster, specifically Pokemon ones, were pushed hard by Game Freak and that it was virtually out of his control.
>>267956812
But I wanted those
>>267957076
I still want more information about it.
They already revealed a new Tekken 7 character but haven't revealed shit for moths about Pokken
>>267957093
Lucario was obviously gonna be returning. He's pretty fucking popular. Game Freak didn't need to do shit.
>>267957208
>>267956812
>Blaziken
Well thank the lord that Sugimori's ugly waifu wasn't forced into yet ano-
>Mewtwo
Screw you anon.He'll be back in, r-right? Muh Wii U Leaks!
But he did make good choices:
>Pikachu
Do I have to explain?
>Jigglypuff
Used to be popular on Japan, probably reminded him of Kirby so he put it in
>Charizard
Probably the second most famous Pokémon.
>Lucario
Most famous pokémon from the "newer" gens
>Greninja
Another good choice.Became the most popular Pokémon from the newest gen
If I were Samurai I'd just have Pikachu, Jiggs, Charizard and Gengar. Pokemon that only autists like such as Mewtwo and Lucario would've never gotten in.
>this man decided that he didn't want ivysaur and Squirtle back just because
I can't go on.
>>267955049
>>267955476
>>267955542
God damn it. I know at this point it's probably just to bait, but I fall for it every time. They would not be as close as Ness and Lucas. They share one move (neutral b), and even that has different properties and trajectory. Everything else about them is different. And fuck this shitty Kid Icarus shilling roster. I hope if another smash game is made that Sakurai does not lead it; I don't know why he shoehorns his shit so hard in a separate game and ignores the fans.
Greninja looks similar to a character in Uprising, which is why he chose it
>>267957698
Naaaah
Honestly Pikachu is the only justifiable main stay
I can understand Lucario, but I can't say I like his stay
Also I think Chairzard should go back with PT since PT's role as a protag
>>267957816
So only pokemon from 1 generation out of 6? Great representation of the series there.
>>267957329
You're right. Normally GameFreak tells them which Pokemon they want in.
http://nintendoeverything.com/how-pokemon-characters-are-chosen-for-smash-bros/
From the E3 Q&A though, it was said that Greninja was an exception to the rule. That he was added because of all possible New Gen candidates, he was the one that the team liked the most.
>Jigglypuff over Snorlax
>Pichu over Heracross
>Lucario over Garchomp
>Greninja over Hawlucha
This guy is confirmed a huge pleb
>>267955049
>Nobody I know wants him back.
You don't shit for people, then.
Mewtwo's even up there on the Japanese polls. Way more than likely, Mewtwo was the most requested veteran, Pokemon, and general character for Smash Bros. 4 even before 4 was officially announced. Nigger was everywhere in every roster discussion on every website.
>>267957983
It's the only generation that matters.
>>267958120
>Pichu over Heracross
>Lucario over Garchomp
These are the only ones i can agree with you on. Having to decide between Hawlucha and Greninja would likely lead into an aneurysm.
>>267957967
Would like it to be one Pokémon for each gen.
Choosing most populars and uniques here
Pikachu
Scizor
Blaziken
Lucario
?????? (No one stands out from here)
Greninja
>>267958220
That's wrong
>>267954919
I'm hoping at least Squirtle makes it back in as DLC or something
>>267957983
Gen 1 and 2 are the only ones that are any good
Are you telling me this guy gets to decide what goes in his own game? Woooow never woulda guessed.
There's no doubt in my mind how bad you'd sperg out if someone tried to tell you what to put in a game you were making.
>>267958120
>Heracross
Pretty sure the Gen 2 character that Sakurai was considering was Scizor.
>>267958317
No it wouldn't
>>267958319
Personally I think it should go by prominence/roles
>Pikachu(mascot)
>Pokemon Trainer(protag/MC)
>Mewtwo(legendary/final boss/villain)
That way less bloating and no flavor of the month characters
This makes a whole lot of sense, muhgens can stick to pokeballs
>>267958592
Not really. As somebody who still plays them, they're pretty much all the same with a few small things added every generation. Plus, Gen 1 aged like shit.
>>267958592
They are also the only ones you played
>>267958740
But the protagonist and legendary(ies) changes every game too
>>267958708
Scizor is my boy, but I don't think he would have worked for Smash, not that Pichu was worth a shit.
>>267958319
>??????
Zoroark.
>>267958861
There is none more prominent than the ones listed
It is what it is
>>267958908
>Scizor
>Not work for Smash
He is a pokémon. All of them have thousands of moves to choose from
>>267958220
>>267958592
Is pokemon the only franchise in smash that suffers from this faggotry? I never see people complain about how only the original Mario game should be represented.
>>267955037
>>267955049
You know, you people are such contrarians. If Mewtwo ever returned, people would be thrilled. The only reason there's no much shit posting is that some of you get off on people's disappointment.
>>267959151
Yeah I know, I just can't picture him in Smash is all
>>267959141
Too bad.
Gen 1 will always be the most famous since it is the oldest.
Smash is meant for advertising and I don't think they want to advertise old games.
>>267958740
>Personally I think it should go by prominence/roles
No, I think the best would be
Pikachu + Starter of each type (different gen each) + Mewtwo
The starting Pokemon are some of the very most important Pokemon in the franchise and you have a generational variety to choose from. You'd think Sakurai would have made that a regular thing for Smash by now.
>>267959171
Smash was never about representing every game in an entire franchise.
I actually feel that, with the exception of the glaring omission of Mewtwo, the Pokemon selection in Smash 4 is pretty damn good.
>>267959171
It's cool to hate new Pokémon gens.
Even little kids play the new gens and post on facebook "le gen 1 and 2 were better!" even though they never actually played them
>>267959171
Well technically Sonic's in Smash, and you know how that fanbase is.
>>267959363
It was also never about representing only one or two games of the same franchise.
>>267959293
So you agree?
>>267959513
No.
This "role" thing is dumb for franchises that don't use the same characters.
That's the same as using this role thing for FE and making every character be from Awakening since it is the most famous one.
>>267959509
That's actually pretty close if you think about it.
>>267959721
No.
>>267959721
It happens, but it isn't the goal or purpose of smash.
>>267959671
Actually it makes sense
The role system would work well for FE
Say the weapon triangle
>sword(Marth)
>spear(Ephraim)
>axe(most prominent axe user)
>>267959912
How does Hector not immediately come to your mind.
>>267959912
But they aren't the most prominent ones.
Every character should be from Awakening since it is the most famous game just like every Pokémon must come from Gen 1 since it is the most famous game.
That is your logic
>>267959863
