The Smash Bros. Nintendo Direct finished airing half a year ago and I didn’t cover it because, well, I… uh… I fell asleep… I’ll make up for it with this Smash Bros. Pokémon Extravaganza!
New Fighters
First, we have a returning veteran. But this time he’s all on his own. Gamefreak can’t get enough of their Charizard wank and that’s probably why they tortured Sakurai in their Mystery dungeon to put him back in. Charizard now looks a bit toughened up, ready to wreak some havock.
Next up, we have this thing. It’s apparently one of the new starters from those recently released Pokémon games on the DS3, and boy it looks totally inferior to all the Generation I designs which are all perfect and totally not influenced by nostalgia. But enough of this genwunning. If you thought Greninja wasn’t overused enough, here you go! I asked which Pokémon you thought we’d see in Smash and nobody said this guy. Or so I guess because Disqus doesn’t let me see my replies anymore. Anyway, nobody won, but I’m sure Sakurai surprised everyone by picking these two characters.
Mega Evolutions
Of course Mega Evolutions couldn’t stay behind and that’s why both Lucario and Charizard get access to their souped up forms. Once they break their Smash Ball they power up, giving them more powerful moves to add to their arsenal. For example, Mega Lucario’s Aura Sphere hits for maximum damage instead of going off on how much damage you’ve taken.
Poké Balls
Smash Bros. wouldn’t be Smash Bros. without Poké Balls. A wide variety of old Pokémon return, like Goldeen and Electrode, but they added quite a bunch of Gen V/VI Pokémon. These include for example a rideable Gogoat, Fennekin, a cute Chespin, Dedenne and older Pokés like Eevee. A new addition is the Master Ball, from which legendary Pokémon emerge, such as Xerneas, Keldeo, Deoxys, Mew and more.
And that’s mostly all important Pokémon news! Smash Bros. 3DS is set to launch this summer while the Wii U version has to wait until winter. Rest assured some news will drop although I find it highly unlikely a new Pokémon fighter to get confirmed. In the meantime, you can discuss this in the comments and we’ll be back tomorrow with a Gen III article, if moving manages to start moving.

Chespin looks stunning on the Wii U <3
Chespin’s the cutest! 😀
One does not simply dislike Greninja.
I forget is Frost Cavern the Special Attack Horde?
Yup
Vanillite and Smoochum 🙂 Not Cubchoo (they give Attack)!
Sorry if this is too off topic, but I need help. My brother is slowly driving me insane from the inside out.
Kick him in the nads
If I do anything to him, my parents will kill me.
Then i’m completely out of options….
Everyone is.
Shoot him in the jugular and hide the body and run away
Gonna go make some more competitve team ideas, choose one, then begin to make it.
Hellooooo….
Would eviolite magneton work?
Kinda not really.
I have a better idea.
What the world has becoming is really concerning me, living in the middle between. War is only destruction, no winner, but lots of broken families.
Greninja will be one of my mains but i will refuse to use charizard
I willuse them all, but I feel charizard and greninja will be my mains.
i dont know i felt like charizard was the waste of space
So, wait. How do you evolve a magneton in x/y?
route 13
So charizard has been in every smash game
he was a pokeball?
What?
the item?
What are you asking?
u said he was in every smash game and i asked was he in a pokeball>
Oh yea, he was a pokeball in the first two
thank u 😀
I hopethey a fully evolved grass starter
Hopefully Sceptile
Can’t picture meganium venusaur toerterra
Chespin is already in a pokeball
Sceptile fits
I don’t think there’s going to be any more pokemon…
Jigglypuff loves to say hi
not really
There won’t be anymore Pokémon. We still need place for Chrom/Lucina, Ghirahim, Ridley, Palutena, Mii, Ness, Shulk, and many more…
And Pac Man!
Don’t forget the Pac.
If he’s confirmed I’ll quit
We can safely/painfully assume that Greninja and Charizard is a stand Alone Combatant
I like both those pokemon they fit perfectly
Me too. I feel like the oonly one who is ok with charizard.
I am okay with it

Yeah Greninja is growing on me,
Its display of Water Elemental Ninjutsu is quite awe-inspiring
Me too its know one of big list of mains
Well as long as Wario comes back I’ll be happy
Has he been annouced?
No, but He’s bound to make a Re-appearance
😀
Earthen Wario isnt going anyway
don’t you mean Anywhere?
yes im in a phase
Gentlemen I give you Greninja’s Final Smash
Night Slash!

I’m still really mad about the favoritism going on in smash…
I really hope they finish the water/grass/fire trio with sceptile :c
It’s final smash could be solarbeam!
Except this isn’t any solar beam….
It uses frenzy plant to hold them down, then summons a sun into the stage, then it absorbs the Light through its orbs, then it releases, killing all enemies that it trapped.
And I honestly think we could’ve gone without lucario IMO…
Love this idea! And I think that Lucario was included to show his new Mega Evolution.
True lol I just thought that since charizard had two megas…
SCPETILE SCEPTILE SCEPTILE 😀 D::D D:
Did i forget to mention SCEPTILE <3
Number of Times I rewatched that trailer: 300 and still counting….
I’m sorry but, I really need to get this out of my system. After rewatching the trailer so many times, I realized that I LOVE Greninja in Super Smash Bros. To be honest, I never liked any of the pokemon in Super Smash since N64. They never appealed to me. The other characters did like (Capt. Falcon, Ike, King Dedede). This is the FIRST time, I’m genuinely excited about a pokemon character in Smash Bros. I may “moan” at the sight of Greninja in Pokemon X/Y, but I absolutely LOVE the sight of Greninja in Smash Bros. In my opinion, there is no better “unique” pokemon that is fresh and popular to pick from that can surprise us as Greninja has.
And for the record, even now, there are people still complaining that they wanted Mewtwo -____-
Despite loving Chesnaught in X/Y, Greninja = LOVE in Smash Bros.
And for the record,
Greninja > Mewtwo >>>>>>>>>> Charizard > Pikachu >>>>>>>>>>>> Jiggly
I’m more hyped for Smash Bros than Mario Kart……
They can make anything awesome if you add HD graphics and an appearance with ZSS
Same here. It’s the game I’m most looking forward to this year. As for Greninja, I think it was a great choice due to its speed, shurikens and stance.
Mewtwo would have been cool but Greninja is in my opinion Better. It is still unknown why they removed TwoMew but Hey…..That MegaCario Tho
I must agree, I myself am greatly looking forward to testing out Greninja’s abilities in the Battlefield
XD Just watvhed the funniest greninja reveal first reactions youtube video ITS HILARIOUS XD
they thought greninja was mewtwo are were screaming MEWTWO?! MEWTWO?! OMG and then they screamed GRENINJA
I think I saw the same one
i saw it on pokemon global academy
scarf tongues are all the rage yo
I can never think of a good team. The one time I did it, it kinda just came to me.
PSSH i loved greninja BEFORE it was cool 😛
Hipster Sceptile
0___0 Slipster Sceptile
Yes! XD
Everyone is so hyped, and yeah, hes cool, but I’m not that hyped, probably since I’ve never played smash
I knew I was going to get Froakie and love its evolutions from the start 😛
I cried (tears of joy) when I saw Greninja, I really like it a lot c:
I kinda feel bad that I picked Froakie because I never picked a water starter before. But he was really awesome nevertheless!
Is it weird that I HATED Greninja back in october?
no, alot of people did except me and xatu pretty much XD HATED delphox though and still do
Each his/her own. I thought Greninja’s design was weird when I first saw it and though it was fanmade.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJMCIt9Zz9g
exactly like the one i posted XD HILARIOUS
well i didn’t see it but still that’s how i was
lol the ending WHERES MY MEWTWO >:(
Anyone HATED delphox and still does?
I personally don’t hate it, I like the spell caster scene it’s going
I’m just not too big into Spellcasters and Psychic types
its cry killed it for me, and its movepool its terrible. The design,movepool and cry makes it one of my least favrotie pokemon ever. I loved Stunfisk fmore than that XD
I’ve always loved Stunfisk…
I have a Level 100 one
Yeah, I much prefer Fennekin :/
same, i liked the fake male one that leaked
I saw that too. It looked pretty cool
The fennekin line started as my favorite at the X/Y reveal and became my least favorite by launch
I love Delphox actually. Honestly, I was originally going to pick Fenniken as my starter until my bro called dibs…BUT I GOT GRENINJA!!!!!!
FUNNIEST reaction video XD its the one i mentioned below
