A lot of you people are starting to piss me off. "oh, Olimar was unlikely, so now anyone could be in!" My fricking ass. Olimar is from nintendo, and his games were awesome. Get to thinking and you'll realize that he could be an awesome character anyways. And no, Lucas doesn't just have different smashes, he has different moves almost completely.

Machop90, Ness was cool and Lucas will probably be better.

that exactly what I'm saying (the olimar thing)

but lucas does have the same specials(at least up down and side, his neutral is only similar to nesses) and it looks like his forward smash is the same too.

Listen, I just think Ness's third jump is weird.I LOVE Mother 2.It's one of my fav games.But I will NEVER be able to beat it.You are right Lucas will be better.

His Up B is arguably one of the best in the game. Infact, I wouldn't have Ness so high on my team if he didn't have it. It's really not hard to master it once you get the hang of it, just play his Target Test a bunch of times. And I think I'm the only one that thinks Lucas sucks. :S

Speaking of Up B's, what do you figure Olimar's will be? (I am never calling him "Pikmin & Olima-"... I almost said it... anyway I'm never calling him "P&O" because his rightfull name is Captain Olimar, and the Pikmin ruin his coolness. >:( )

What could he possible do for all his attacks without Pikmen? That would take away the point of even having him in brawl! Olimar without Pikmin is just a random guy in a spacesuit. By the way, I doubt that his name will be Pikmin and Olimar, I think that he was just describing what the character was. It will probably be shortened to Olimar.

By the way, do any of you recognize the stage behind Olimar in the upper left picture? I think that might be part of a new stage, maybe even his.

Im guessing either a massive swarm of pikmin, something to do with his ship, bomb-rocks, or summoning some creature from one of his games(probably not , because it wouldn't make sense, but wouldn't it be awesome!?)

Hey guys, how's it hangin'?

Wow, Captain Olimar. I owe quite a few of you my ass hole for this one.
Here I was, never thinking Olimar would make it. I feel like a fool.

Now, to adress another concern of mine. Don't you guys think they should have made some graphic touch ups on the original melee stages?

err try olimar getting jumped by pikmin.

or a sticky situation: one throws a gooey bomb at another, the other one runs into the first one and the gooey bomb kills him. I don't know, the whole brawl bloopers thing isn't really a good idea coughcericoncough XD JK.

Nevermind, it looks like it's just Mario

I really hope tonights update is Olimar's special moves, although I refuse to get my hopes up.

Also sparkpro, I think whoever said that the yellow one is one of those meteo things is right. Sakari DID make meteos.... maybe there will be an AT too.

Theory on Olimar:

Why would he need a limit on the amount of smashes he can do in a certain time period?

Since I think that there won't be a move for picking more slaves (Much better to stand still and watch Olimar automatically pull them out of nowhere), I predict that the moves/smashes that use pikmin can be done in quick succession, and are quite powerful.

I also think that his weak move combo will be the mach punch combo from Pikmin 2.

well duh, what else would it be?

I think that his up b will either be:
1. similar to yoshis egg throw, but with a pikmin
or, hopefully
2.he throws a chain of pikmin upwards diagonally, can be used to grab airborne enemy's and make them fall to the ground in front of you or as a tether recovery.

obviously 2 would be awsome.

I still can't believe they did it. It's just wrong.

Anywho, I played Melee for the first time in months yesterday, and something pretty funny happened. I was playing with my two brothers and a friend. I was Marth, my brothers were Link and Luigi, and the friend was Samus. The stage was Final Destination. Link was dead already. I was in between Samus and Luigi, with my back to Luigi. Samus shoots a fully charged blast at me as Luigi attempts an air attack from behind. I use my downb, which deflects the blast back and up from me. The reflected blast happened to hit Luigi and kill him. It was hilarious.

I can just imagine that. If I were there, I'd laugh my ass off. That's hilari-ass.

Friggin' Snake's FS. THat's funny. New Character and then the FS of a long-confirmed Character. But it's cool.

You know what be awkward if Capt. Olimar's smash would be better than half of the characters, that s just a hyptohesis. But I doubt that could ever happen.....or could it.

I don't mean like a TOTAL clones, like Cpt. Falcon/Ganon, just in how they use other people as their attacks.

What coolness? Haha. XP

Final vote: Olimar as a char.
Good idea: 0
Bad idea: 1

Hmm, Snake's Final Smash. That's kinda interesting, nothing to complain about there. That sounds like fun throwing grenades everywhere. I'm enjoying how they're starting to think out of the box dimensional-wise. With this, and the Nintnedog blocking the way, it's cool to see what they're doing.

Choppa-choppa-choppa!

Ha, snake's final smash looks awsome, I'm so doing my Arnold impression when my friends are around! Also Snake's Final smash on my Birthday FTW!!!

Get to the Choppa!!!

LOL, I meant how the Pikmin follow him around. If he could do all his moves by plucking them out first.... hmm that'd be laggy... wait a second now that I think about it, it's not that gay after all. :D I like Captain Olimar now.

I also like Sanke's FS! I wonder if you'll be able to point if you're using the Wiimote and Nunchuck...

Finally, Snake's final smash, not bad.
I wanted to know for the longest time.

At 1/9/08 08:19 PM, Machop90 wrote: I wonder what Captain Olimar's Final Smash will be?

My top choices would be...

1- A rain of pikpik carrots, (cuz "pikmin" are grown and pulled from the ground) fall from the sky and do like 125%-150% damage to everyone on the map cept Olimar.

2- One of those ostrich necked bird's comes center stage and nips in random directions, knocking out anyone who gets bit.

3- THe most realistic... Olimar call's his ship from space, and as it comes down, it begins to break apart and all the pieces of his ship crash onto the field causing damage and knocking players out.

That or he summons like 400 pikmin to embed all the players and beat the crap out of them with thier leaf-headed fury.

It said Olimar need the Pikmins to do his final smash, so it mist be entirely related to them...

Snake FS.......impressive,

Captain Olimar announced as character......shocking,

Look on peoples faces when CO was announced.......Priceless XD

about time snake rains some pain!
teach all those punk smash noobs a lesson!
or some crazy vet goes...crazy!

It looks like the Pikmin are out in the battlefield insted of in the background, so I'd say you can attack them to get rid of them, unless Olimar has some decent strong standard attacks. I'd say there's a way to lose them, since you'll probably only be allowed 5, but unless we have more info on Olimar's specific attacks, it's hard to say what's what.

Anyway, Snake's Final Smash might be a wee bit broken. That depends on the attack power, knockback, and blast radius of the grenades. I think it'd be good if they KO at about, what? 80%?

Wait, Corneria has no background, so where will Pokemon Trainer stand?

I'm thinking on the Ship, still, but a few steps back...

And SHEIK IS CONFIRMED! Brawl Central made a post about it! Even though Sheik is my least-favorite character, I knew she'd return because I'd doubt they'd remove anyone with an original moveset.

That's the thing. By the laws of physics, Bowser shouldn't even be able to stand on the 3-inch thick piece of ground (not that sending people flying doesn't break the physics law either) but Pokemon Trainer is rather far back. I would think he has some sort of platform or Pokemon holding him up.

Does this mean 2 Final Smashes? I don't think Shiek would use Light Arrows. Speaking of which, Light Arrows don't sound all that effective.

I always thought that Snake's FS would be some sort of airstrike. I guess I was almost right.

In one of the pictures of Brinstar Pokemon Trainer can be seen on a platform in the background, so I guess he will have custom platforms for certain levels.
