Huh? What about neither. If Jigglypuff is in, it'll probably be an unlockable, and early events didn't feature any unlockables in Melee. Besides, there was a "Pokemon battle" event in melee, and it only featured Pikachu.
I really don't see how that's good at all. If the black Samus is really supposed to be Dark Samus, rather than just a shadow due to the sun light, that means a real "Dark Samus", either as a costume or a character, won't be in the game.

That would definitely be cool if it happens!Dreavus said:

What's to stop them from having a "part 2/3/4" to the event, starring any and all Pokemon that may be in the game?
If any one ranging from Mewtwo, Purin/Puff and Lucario are in the game, then surely they could get starring roles in other events, with perhaps the other dudes in Pikachu's role instead.

Wow, nice. There were basically three freaking updates in this one.
Wow indeed, Sakurai

If there was any doubt, this update confirmed Pokemon Trainer and Lucas as starters, as well. The former isn't much of a surprise though considering the box art.
It's looking more and more obvious with each update that everyone on the Dojo is from the starting line-up (minus Snake and Sonic, probably). And that we're not getting any characters recently because Sakurai doesn't want to reveal the unlockables yet.
But Sakurai is obviously going all-out with this game so you can bet on it.

For some reason I always took that comment made by [Solid Snake's VA] David Hayter as definitive proof that Jiggly is in. There really isn't any reason why they wouldn't include Jiggly in the game. David hasn't done VA for any of the other Smash Bros. games and I'm pretty sure he hasn't played them either, so why else would he mention Jigglypuff?

I don't think anyone has pointed it out already - there would seem to be items in Target Smash:
Fake Edit: Now that I look at the original Target Smash update, it looks like items were shown there, too. I just don't remember any kind of outcry about it, which seems strange.

He does those codec scenes where Mei Ling, Otacon, and Roy Campbell relate to Snake about the other Smashers. If Jigglypuff's included, Hayter would have done a Codec scene involving her... it.... whatever gender it is...
Since the pokemon trainer's outfit is green, along with Ivysaur and Charizard being green (you can see the green charizard in the small event pic), maybe there are several different color pallet swaps for the pokemon? Red, blue, green, black?
Sounds probable to me..and hopefully black is one of them.

Actually, the main thing that no one seems to have pointed out about the target mode update.. it seems to confirm that there are no longer unique stages for every character? (Since you would be able to have any combination of characters as its co-op, right?)
I remember back in the original target mode update the update said something like "there are 3 or 4 stages" (I am too lazy to check). There was a lot of debate going on where one side thought it meant OVERALL, and the other thought it was per character... now it's looking more like the former
Although who knows, maybe co-op mode gets unique stages or something. Either way, co-op anything is awesome
There were two Pokemon events in SSBM; one had only Pikachu and the other had only Pikachu and Pichu.Earthstrike said:
Edit: Three if you count the one with Jigglypuff and four wireframes acting as decoys to stop you from getting the legendary-only Poke Balls. Even then, Mewtwo was never heavily featured in a Pokemon-specific event, so it doesn't seem like any kind of trick to me.
New unlockable character for the Christmas update, believe.TenshiOni said:
Eh, there might be an outcry if they spawn randomly, but we're already used to fixed items in Stadium contests because of the Homerun Contest. Just gives people another tool to use...LouieGeetoo said:
Speaking of this, it would be awesome if, for at least one out of Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard, someone addresses how those species survive when they're 87.5% male. (75% female Jigglypuff also raises some questions, but not quite as many.)Golden Darkness said:

So I've been looking at that events picture.
I think I've figured out who the shadow images are. The one in front is obviously Samus, but I think last night we settled on Link for the other. Looking at it closer, it can't be.
Blow it up larger if you need to.
Notice the two strands at the top of his head. It's the wind blowing a bandana up. The shadow is also not a human shape, since the cape is flowing away from the screen, obscuring the shape. Finally, there's a sword in his hand pointing left.
Ike and Samus are fighting something on Eldin Bridge.

Looks more like Link holding his sword up in the air, and the shield at his side to me(thus obscuring a portion of his body) but to each his own, I suppose.

Wait, do we know what the shining thing is in event #4? Looks almost like a Lightning Bolt on the Mario Kart track.

This is curious. You can clearly see the sword, so it's likely Ike or Link. The bandanna gives credence to the Ike idea... but what's the large bump on his side if not a shield?
When you factor in the fact that he and Samus are both shadowed out for presumably no reason, and that those aren't actual costumes for them... could the icon be shadowed out to hide the fact that the character in the back isn't Ike OR Link? Rather, someone with a sword, bandanna, AND shield?
???!?!??!?

I think the shadow is just for dramatic effect.
It's probably a mercenary mission, linking Ike and Samus similar to a bounty hunter mission for Samus and Falcon in Melee (though that was competitive, not co-op).
The sword definitely closes off at a point on the left side. It's a sword, not an entrance. I think the shield is just a cape flowing away from the camera, it's too round to be Link's.
Link's is angled at every end.
I dunno, at this point, I'd be willing to bet money it's Ike.

The cape's a bit of a stretch, yeah.
But the bandana is hard to argue with.
Wait...what if it's Snake? XD

Is it me or is Event 4's picture a total Indiana Jones reference?
What makes me think it's Link is that it's Bridge of Eldin and usually the event stages are chosen by what characters are in it: Delfino Plaza for Two Trouble Kings, Battleship Halberd for Pink Ball Repulsion, Yoshi's Story for Sleeping in the Eggs, etc.
And one more reason.

The single-player counterpart event is probably Dark Link Duel.

Far from always.Jiggy37 said:
Battle of the Bounty Hunters in Melee, for example, took place in a Donkey Kong stage.
Sudden Death is just a Wario Ware stage.
All Mine, which has set characters, takes place on Angel Island.

Jiggy37 said:
Hm, that might make sense. A dark Link and dark Samus for players 1 and 2 to battle against with the non-dark equivalents.
That bandanna is still something, though...
...unless there's a tower with a ribbon-flag on it that happens to be right behind Link's head.
yeah, the two player looks like Dark Link and Dark SamusJiggy37 said:What makes me think it's Link is that it's Bridge of Eldin and usually the event stages are chosen by what characters are in it: Delfino Plaza for Two Trouble Kings, Battleship Halberd for Pink Ball Repulsion, Yoshi's Story for Sleeping in the Eggs, etc.

It might just be at an odd timeMrCheez said:
Hmm I'm not entirely sure it is Norfair. From what we've seen of Norfair it's much more red, and the background of the stage is a lot darker and not foggy like in the event image.
It might also be another Metroid stage

I don't know if that's Link because if it were that picture has him looking RIGHT-handed.
Yeah, not always, just usually. All Mine and the Sudden Death events are kind of interesting cases to me because they're based around a mechanic rather than a story/character theme.ShockingAlberto said:

Wario, at least, is known to be greedy. I can't remember if Bowser's ever had some financial schemes cooking, but he does like-a the treasure.

Lightning bolt? Nice! I hope its not a broken item or I'll have to turn it off like I do to the star and hammer in the current game.
