  • Assist Trophies are a huge part of Smash, allowing many more characters to join the battle in a more minor way than a full fighter would. Let's talk about every origin for assists, from Brawl to Ultimate!

    Here's a fun fact about Rodin being in Smash: he asked for it.
    In the Switch port of Bayo2 they added amiibo support to his shop. If you scan certain amiibo Rodin will claim she got a package in the mail. He makes references to Hyrule, Samus being a bounty hunter, the villages in animal crossing, ect. If you scan a Smash amiibo that is not tied to specific franchises he will claim she got a package from her "fight club". They will request that the next time she goes back to bring him along.
    The Switch port of Bayo2 was released before the announcement of Ultimate. So him being an assist trophy is a direct callback to him asking her to bring him along next time she was invited.

    Another thing about Guile sitting on Down-Back like he is, is it's also the most advantageous position for defense, as it allows you to block all incoming attacks except from the air (or flagged as 'overhead'), and makes high-aiming attacks miss entirely.

    Poor Isaac. I mean it's one thing to stay as an Assist Trophy each time, but it feels worse to get removed as an Assist in Smash 4, only to return with a few upgrades in Ultimate. It's not that I don't appreciate the upgrades, but it's not what I, or many fans of Isaac wanted. He's one of the last few Nintendo franchies not represented in Smash with a playable character. Gotta just hold out for Smash 6 I guess.

When he fires it on the ground, the downward shot just disappears, so it LOOKS like he's only firing 2 shots. I don't know where you got the one shot from though...

    Pretty sure Elec Man always shoots all three Thunder Beam bolts, it'd be pretty weird if the number of shots was variable since that has never been a mechanic with the boss or weapon. It may only look like 1 or 2 because two of the shots are vertical, so if he is on the ground the downwards shot will immediately get eaten by the floor, or if he were to shoot directly below a ceiling the upwards shot would get eaten by the ceiling. So the only way to actually see all three shots is if he shoots midair in open space, or maybe on a pass-through platform but I don't recall exactly how the shots interact with those.
    In the Mega Man series proper, most attacks in the Classic games pass through terrain, so this isn't an issue. With Thunder Beam in particular its shots don't even get stopped when they hit an enemy, passing straight through them instead. Though in the Powered Up remake, terrain actually does absorb most attacks, so Thunder Beam's downwards and upwards shots are similarly limited there. This is pretty clearly not Powered Up Elec Man though, as that game used a very distinct chibi art style, the terrain projectile absorption is simply a result of Smash Bros mechanics.
    Also, for Pac-Man ghosts, Inky also tries to move in front of Pac-Man like Pinky, but while Pinky's goal is a consistant distance in front of Pac-Man's position, Inky's goal has a variable distance based on how far away Blinky is from Pac-Man. If Blinky is close to Pac-Man, Inky's goal will be close to Pac-Man, but if Blinky is far away then Inky's goal will also be far away. Meanwhile, Clyde is not random. Instead, when far away from Pac-Man, Clyde's AI is essentially the same as Blinky's, going straight for Pac-Man. However, when Clyde gets close to Pac-Man his goal changes to be the bottom left corner of the maze. This is why taking out the bottom left corner first is typically a good idea, Clyde is the last ghost to leave the box at the center of the maze. If Clyde is active and you're in that bottom left corner then Clyde will be on top of you at all times. However, if you're in any other part of the maze then as soon as Clyde gets close he'll change his mind and go back off to his corner. Unless, of course, you have somehow ended up BETWEEN Clyde and the bottom left corner, in which case you'll need to do some extra maneuvering to get around him as he makes a beeline down there.

After beating the Omega Pirate boss it falls ontop of Samus, liquifying & melting into her Gravity Suit which gives her the Phazon Suit. It's not a cutscene but Samus does have to step into Phazon pools crested by Metroid Prime's core in order to access the Phazon beam & damage Metroid Prime's final form at the end of the game.
      Not sure where this guy gets Metroid Prime copying her DNA...it's just the Phazon Suit it stole at the end before the core blows up.

    If you could add at least 5 new assist trophies, which would you choose? Here are my choices:
    -Travis Touchdown (No More Heroes): he would use any of his 4 blades from NMH2 and lucha libre moves
    -Geno (Super Mario RPG): he would shoot different types of bullets from his hand, finger or elbow, and boost his ally with extra attack and defense
    -Eva (Metal Gear Solid 3): she would go on her motorcycle and run over the enemies like Wario's bike move. Also she can give a random weapon before leaving
    -Mega Sceptile (Pokemon): it would appear and launch his tail tree like a rocket, dealing a massive explosion, like in the anime
    -Gatekeeper (Fire Emblem Three Houses): he would use his Charging Horn to summon a gambit of different Fighters, and creating a stampede

    "Not popular enough" was never a factor for Snash characters. Nobody knew who Marth was when he was included, to the point that many people thought he was a Smash original, plus Roy and Corrin were added to promote tgeir games, they were added to get that popularity in the first place.
    It could be debated for some of the other charas, but these are pretty good examples it's not popularity alone that gets you into Smash.

      @@CrickettoSantalune And your point is what exactly?
      Yes, the GBA weren't the first in the series as a whole, but it was the first to make it outside of Japan, and that was AFTER Melee was released.
      Most important IP? That is questionable, it was popular in Japan, but not really as much as other jrpgs like Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior or the MegaTen franchise. Then there's the fact that as you yourself noted, the 7th game in the series was the first one they bothered localising. And to top it all off, if you look at actual sales, the series didn't do that well until FE Awakening. So that's less a "reminder" and more a "questionable claim".
      And of course, for all it's importance and popularity, it still doesn't change the fact that when Melee was first release, nobody outside of Japan had a clue who Marth was, to the point most of the Smash community thought he was an original chara, a blunder so silly it has a trope named after it.
