What characters I would like for Super Smash Bros?

With Super Smash Bros having a large variety of all star gaming cast including third party and with the recent announcement of more Super Smash Bros Ultimate DLC on its way, here are the characters that I would like for Super Smash Bros. I’ll try to come up with as many possible movesets as I can. I may also mention some related Assist Trophies.

Eeveelutions/Eevee – Pokemon

Naturally as an Eeveelution fan, I would be so hyped for the Eeveelutions or at the very minimum, Eevee. I actually thought with the release of Let’s go Pikachu and Let’s go Eevee, there would be a possibility of that happening. It would be so fun to use all the Eeveelutions into battle with a variety of moves based on their type. Even if only Eevee is playable, it actually does have many moves it could use from Let’s Go Eevee including its Move Tutor moves. Either way, their final smash could have all the Eeveelutions gathering together to unleash one powerful move, making it an awesome Final Smash.

At a side note, maybe there could also be a Hoenn, Unova and Galar representation (unless Sword and Shield will have a new Eeveelution!). Blaziken and Snivy comes to mind since Starter Pokemon tends to be chosen although there was once a rumor about Gardevoir and Gothitelle for Super Smash Bros Ultimate which would fit that bill. 

Phoenix Wright/Apollo Justice – Ace Attorney

Objection! Having Phoenix Wright in Smash wouldn’t be a joke since he did appeared in Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 and being an Ace Attorney fan, it would be a dream come true if this became a reality. Phoenix Wright’s Smashes could be his finger pointing poses, yelling “Objection!” and “Take That!” which would be so entertaining and he could summon his partner in crime Maya Fey to defend him. He could work in an almost similar way to Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3, having Investigation, Courtroom and Turnabout mode, making himself stronger as he gathers evidence. Of course, his Final Smash would be just like his Level Three Hyper Combo from again Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom; testifying the characters in court in a true Ace Attorney style.

On a similar subject, Apollo Justice could be his echo fighter, swapping Maya Fey with Trucy Wright while Athena Cykes could be an Assist Trophy character, using her Mood Matrix to attack the characters on screen.

Dante – Devil May Cry

With Bayonetta in Smash, it would be about time that Dante joins Super Smash Bros. He would have a wide variety of moves to use including his Ebovy and Ivony, Rebellion and Devil Trigger which would make him a versatile, if not stylish threat.

Black Knight – Fire Emblem

A couple of people have been suggesting Three Houses characters including Byleth and Edelgard which I wouldn’t mind having to played the game myself. However, there is one other Fire Emblem character in mind and that is Ike’s rival Black Knight. This would be an interesting direction as an antagonist based Fire Emblem character who would be a formidable heavy weight; tanking hits and hitting hard. Whilst his mobility would be poor with his heavy armour, he could use his Fire Emblem Heroes based skills Wings of Mercy or Wrap Powder as his recovery.

With Fire Emblem Heroes comes to mind, I would also add Reinhardnt as an Assist Trophy character, firing his Dire Thunder at the opponents saying “Magic is everything!” He could even use his Meisterschwert sword at close range opponents. 

Sora – Kingdom Hearts

As unlikely it may seem for now, Sora is no stranger to crossovers having to venture in the Disney universe. He would almost certainly be versatile with a variety of moves to choose from including his keyblades, magic and limits. Maybe he could even bring Mickey, Donald and Goofy with him.  Not only that, but a Super Smash Bros and Disney collaboration would certainly be something to hype for so maybe one day, Sora could open the door that would lead him to the Super Smash Bros universe.

Karate Joe/RingSide Wrestler  - Rhythm Paradise

When it comes to a Rhythm Paradise (aka Rhythm Heaven) representation, The Chorus Boys have been the first choice that comes to mind for many fans. However, my personal choice would be Karate Joe. The reason is that he's the kind of character who is made for fighting being a karate man and he is even shown using his karate skills in his games, hitting bombs and barrels with his punching and kicking moves. His other special could be various references to other games from the Rhythm Paradise series. This would make Karate Joe right at home in Smash.

But that's not all, I would also like the Ringside Wrestler who could be Karate Joe's echo fighter since he is the character who would be suited for fighting. After all, he is popular thanks to those memes associated with his game.

God Eater

Having to play God Eater, I have thought of the idea of having a God Eater character in smash (either using the main playable God Eater character or Soma or Alisa who are probably the most popular God Eater characters). They do have a variety of arsenal including their God Arcs (such as blades, Guns and Spears), Blood Arts and Devour. Having a God Eater character would also mean that we would have their music added and I find that the series have one of the best gaming soundtrack.

As a side note, one of the Aragami, the Vajra could be an Assist Trophy or a stage hazard, ramping the characters with its deadly electric based attacks.

Tails – Sonic The Hedgehog

A lot of people have been wanting Shadow the Hedgehog as the next Sonic representative. I do think that Shadow is cool and I can see why but I was thinking of somebody more traditional; Sonic’s sidekick Tails. Since after all, we have Mario’s brother Luigi and Ryu’s friend and rival Ken so maybe one day, Tails could join Sonic in Smash.  His moveset could be identical to Sonic’s as he does knows some spin dash moves of his own, except that he is able to fly which would give him some mobility and he could use his inventions as his Final Smash including his Tornado 2.

Arcade Bunny – Nintendo Badge Arcade

An odd choice he maybe but as I was playing Nintendo Badge Arcade and enjoyed its variety of crane based games to get the badges and was thinking that his specials could be based on the crane games including a the crane hook to grab his opponents, a hammer and bombs. This makes him an unusual choice that could actually work.

Ray MK II – Custom Robo

If Nintendo were to use one of their more obscure franchises, I would choose Custom Robo, making Ray MK II the obvious representation (also since he have been an Assist Trophy in Brawl). This could help to give Custom Robo more recognition and for veterans to rediscover the series. And who knows, maybe it could give the series a revival.  

Kite/Haseo – Dot Hack

As I was playing Dot Hack GU HD Remastered, I thought of the possibility of a Dot Hack character being playable for Smash with a wide variety of moves the characters could use including Haseo’s Dual Swords, Scythe and various lost weapons which are all bound to have lots of possibilities. This would also give the franchise some more limelight after being stagnant for a decade. Kite would possibly be the first pick as he’s the better known protagonist though it wouldn’t do harm to have Haseo alongside him too.  Either way, their Final Smash would involve Data Drain (with Haseo using his Skeith).

Makoto Naegi – Danganronpa

In a similar vain to Phoenix Wright, Makoto would be an odd pick since he’s a mere human with no powers or weapons but as a fan of Danganronpa, I thought it would be cool to have a Danganronpa representation and asides from Monokuma (who could be an Assist Trophy or a stage hazard and I’m personally not a fan of having an antagonist as the sole representation), Makoto would be the most obvious pick. Like with again Phoenix Wright, it would be interesting to see how could Sakurai could come up with a moveset for Makoto to improvise including a Megaphone Hacking Gun (from the Danganronpa side game Ultra Despiar Girls), truth bullets and various references from The Class Trail minigames including the Bullet Time Battle. For now, we have to hope that this becomes a possibility (pardon the pun).  

Muddy Mole – Mole Mania

If Sakurai were to choose one of the more obscure characters from an obscure game, it would be Muddy Mole from one of Shigeru Miyamoto’s little known works. We had some many odd choices throughout Smash Bros including Mr Game and Watch, R.O.B, Wii Fit Trainer, Duck Hunt Duo and Piranha Plant and Muddy Mole could join the Unexpected Character trope. It could even help to give Mole Mania a bigger following. Two of his moves would involve digging (of course) and moving the ball like he did in the game.

Mii Mage

Not actually a character but a new class for the Mii Fighters. There have been times when I’ve created Miis based on characters that have magical powers or people who would have magical powers (like myself) and Mii Gunner is the closest thing to it having long ranged attacks but they’re not really magic so adding a new Mii Fighter class would solve that issue. They would have a variety of magical based powers to choose from including Fire, Electric, Ice, Air, Aqua, Light, Dark or just Psychic. They could also have some defensive based moves including teleport and shield, giving them some versatility.

Wonder Red – Wonderful 101

Wonderful 101 was a wonderful gem back in the Wii U days (pardon the pun) yet it apparently didn’t sell very well. Maybe if Wonder Red were to appear on Super Smash Bros, maybe it could help more people to get into Wonderful 101, earning it more sells. With so many moves that the Wonderful 101 characters have including Wonder Red’s Unite Hand and being an action packed super hero, Wonder Red would feel right at home in Smash.

Saki - Sin and Punishment 

We have Saki as an Assist Trophy and a Mii outfit but I say it's about time to have a playable Sin and Punishment representation and Saki himself is a no brainer (or Isa from the squeal or even both of them with Isa as the Echo Fighter). This could help to give Sin and Punishment more exposure. 

Tycho Minogue – My ExBoyfriend the Space Tyrant

Lol.

Honorable Mentions

I’ve been playing Resonance of Fates HD remaster on Steam and thought that Zephyr would make a cool addition, having a couple of weapons to choose from and Hero Mode that would make him a faster, stronger and enable him to jump higher, making him a formidable character.   

With Sega’s former cash cow franchise Sakura Wars getting a new game, maybe a Sakura War character could be possible including Sakura Shinjuuji or Ichiro Ohagami, adding another Sega representative.

The other Capcom franchise come to mind is Darkstalkers with Morrgian Aensland as the playable representative I guess.

If Smash Bros were to have a Disgaea representation, then Laharl would be an obvious pick with him being the star of the first game...along with Captain Gordon, Defender of Earth! Cos it would be fun to have a hammy hero parody style character in the game. 

As far as other Indie games representatives comes to mind, Awesomenauts would be...well, awesome! There are so many characters to choose from with moves that would suit well for Smash Bros. Lonestar and Clunk comes to mind.
