He was revealed late during the Brawl lead up as well.
He wasn't revealed on the Dojo until after the game came out in Japan.

As foolish as it may be, it has dampened my enthusiasm quite a bit, but further updates could turn things around for me. I just need something to raise my excitement again. Anyway, I won't fill up this topic with my complaints. I'm just disappointed. I'll come to deal with it myself. If I can accept Wii Fit Trainer, I guess I can get over this eventually.
So I was right. He was really fucking late.He wasn't revealed on the Dojo until after the game came out in Japan.
I'm not going to bother with some vain preface and balderdash in an attempt to establish credibility. Read and think what you will, but remember to come back to this list as more and more revelations show concurrence.
<u>Final Character Roster</u>
1st Row: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Rosalina, Bowser, Wario, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Pikachu, Pokemon Trainer, Jigglypuff, Lucario, Mewtwo
2nd Row: Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, Toon Link, Toon Zelda, Pit, Palutena, Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Fox, Falco, Krystal, Marth, Chrom & Lucina
3rd Row: Mii, Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Ness, Samus, Olimar, Captain Falcon, Ice Climbers, Little Mac, Takamaru, R.O.B., Mr. Game & Watch, Mega Man, Sonic, Pac-Man
All names written as announced upon selection.
Cut: Ike, Lucas, Wolf, Snake
Reworked: Pokemon Trainer
Clarifications and general information are as followed:
- Mewtwo was the final character solidified in the roster.
- Mewtwo will not use either Mega Form.
- Mewtwo's Final Smash is called "Psycho Break".
- Lucario's Final Smash has not been finalized.
- Zelda's transformation into Sheik has not been changed.
- Samus's transformation into Zero Suit Samus has not been changed.
- Pokemon Trainer no longer commands Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard.
- Pokemon Trainer's Final Smash is called "Tri-Pledge" or "Triple Pledge".
- Pac-Man will be announced at E3 2014 via Nintendo Direct.
- Ganondorf will be revealed at E3 2014 via Nintendo Direct.
- Release date will be announced at E3 2014: Wii U being "early autumn" and 3DS during the holidays.
- Other characters are at the whim of marketing demands regarding showcasing
Regarding Chrom & Lucina: During the selection screen, the player may choose who to start the match with. Both Chrom and Lucina have a separate moveset and fight individually, save for when any of their specials are used, at which point their partner will materialize (having been out of view in any other circumstance) to perform a combo and switch them out. Their specials are the same in name but perform slightly differently depending on who was in use upon their activation. They share the same Final Smash, which does not induce a swap out. Switching is instant, considering the special being used, and has no transformation delay.
Regarding Krystal: No blaster--she uses her anticipated staff from Star Fox Adventures. Her Final Smash isn't yet decided but is narrowed to the names "Krazoa Spirit", "Krazoa Takes" (which may be a misinterpretation on my end), simply "Krazoa", and "Quake".
That is all I know for the time being. Other details and finishing touches I will learn gradually throughout the first and second quarters, upon which time most information will be pouring out regardless. I'll close in saying that this isn't my first time at the rodeo, fellows, and that I know how this whole routine usually plays out; despite inevitable doubt and ridicule (even though complaints at the "drought of information" are everpresent and ongoing), know that it was my pleasure to share this leaked information with my peers and friends, as it always.
So I was right. He was really fucking late.

Things might be a bit different this time around anyway. Having secret characters stay secret nowadays is an exercise in futility since it'll all get leaked and propagated. I'm sure Luigi among others is still an unlockable character (if the whole roster isn't there from the start, anyway) so he might just be showing off anyone and everyone this time to save us the grief.
Basically this. I can't see Toon Link being a starter character unless unlockable characters are a thing of the past.
Am I crazy to think that they are saving him for a special occasion, like the announcement of a brand new F-Zero game ?
Because it's fun!None of these rumors are true except the one guy who reported WFT and Villager before E3. Why do we indulge?

Frankly, I prefer fake leaks like the one with "the stork from Yoshi's Island".
ALL these "rumours" are about characters talked about on the Internet: Ridley, Takamaru, Dixie, King K Rool, Palutena, ...
I'm sure the roster will have big surprises. And I'm sure that all these characters we always talk about won't be in. It's like Brawl. There's characters that a lot of people expected in Brawl that still aren't in Smash Bros. But we had ROB or Snake.
Fake rumours posters need to step up their games

These "leakers" really need to stop pretending they somehow know the specifics of Nintendo Directs months in advance.
How would you guys feel if they replaced Lucario with Blaziken?

I don't see any reason for that when both Lucario and Blaziken were prominently featured in X and Y. Both received Mega forms, and both are given away (Lucario in-game, and Blaziken via download event).How would you guys feel if they replaced Lucario with Blaziken?

An anonymous source emailed him saying that those six newcomers would be revealed at E3. He hasn't heard anything from the source since then.Have we heard anything from the guy that predicted Wii Fit Trainer? And did he ever mention how he found that info? I forgot.[/SPOILER]
Is this another slots post where people will claim Blaziken is a Lucario clone if Blaziken "replaced" Lucario?How would you guys feel if they replaced Lucario with Blaziken?

lolActually Mewtwo will be a Lucario clone. Buts that's just me.
Good luck out there!WELP! On my way to APEX to play some nonstop SMASH 64 TEAMS and watch all the HYPE!!
If I get a decent connection maybe I'll post from there. Otherwise, enjoy the weekend SmashGAF! I'll be back to let you all know how much I carried people with that 360 controller to N64 adapter ;]

Actually, I'm pretty sure the Smash threads have already been relegated to Community before. I'm not sure why we've not been relegated to it since then; my only theory is because there's still technically news coming out of the daily images, although most of it's small, and the big news generally gets its own thread.I'm not sure if they can do that. Community is mainly for the games that are released, not announced games with lack of information (Smash 4 from 2011 to 2013), or series community. This thread is for daily image, which would be update for 5 days. every week until the game got released. I think it's possible that moderator would lock the thread for few days if people are getting out of control.
I don't see a Xenoblade stage here. Honestly, even if we don't get a Xenoblade character, we should really have a stage from it; the environment design is absolutely stellar, and there's too much good music to just let waste.Everyone was doing character rosters, so I decided to try my hand at a stage roster (Wii U version). It's rough and not terribly pretty to look at, but it is what it is:
No names, as is customary, and you're supposed to guess, I guess.
The images are more intended to show what I think they should be based on, not what the stages themselves would actually look like.
Though I will give you the answer to one of them, because it's just not possible to guess--dark green one with the tree on the bottom left of the main group is supposed to be a Fire Emblem countryside type thing, kind of a field battle version of Castle Siege. Not easy to get a picture that communicates this idea.
Maybe I'll do a 3DS one later.
Man I wish smash had good internet... My brothers hardly play anymore
I've been playing a lot of Brawl/Project M and man what is up with the Pokeball Pokemon? It seems like all I ever get is Lati@s, Munchlax, Bonsly and Gardevoir. I was actually surprised when Snorlax came out this morning because it had been so long since I got one that I forgot it was even in the game!
Also I'm thinking very few of the Pokemon will be from Gen V and VI, because there is no Stadium/Colosseum/Battle Revolution to pull all the models from and they have to be made from scratch. There's the 3DS models, but those are all probably very low-poly, so either the new Pokemon will look like crap on Wii U or most will be 3DS only. It's just a guess but so far most Pokemon were either sprites or just had their model pulled from one of the 3D games, and since the games now ARE 3D there's really no novelty in making a Stadium-type game anymore.

they could probably rip the models from X/Y directly and touch them up slightly. It looks like for Xerneas they may have done just that.
Maybe I'll do a 3DS one later.

I recall from Brawl the pokeball pokemon selection was bad and the frequency was odd.I've been playing a lot of Brawl/Project M and man what is up with the Pokeball Pokemon?

I hope Takamaru gets deconfirmed soon so I can win the avatar bet I have with IntelliHeath.
