To be fair, piranha plant is a great character in the game and has been around way longer.

I kinda wanted them to add Groose from Skyward Sword as a joke character since he'd be a good Zelda character who's name isn't Link or Zelda.

It's clearly not just a Piranha Plant, but an apex specimen that possesses the abilities of multiple different subspecies.

I'm honestly still kinda disappointed in a lot of Ultimate's roster. >_>

Way too many JRPG reps in the two fighter passes and some of them didn't even have any relation to Nintendo, like Joker.

Also they made Dark Samus an echo, which was lame as fuck

I'm pretty disappointed in the fire emblem picks. There's no need for marth, Lucina, roy, and chrom to all be in the game that's fucking absurd.

Every game should get one rep max. Awakening got 3. That's bullshit.

If I could wipe it clean here's how I'd do it:

Marth, Lucina, Azura, Byleth, and Anna (FEH version).

This way you get 2 of the most major recurring characters, and a full weapon triangle, along with Byleth who uses the whole triangle alone.

Also Tiki should totally be an assist trophy.
It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

I mean in smash brothers. Great recovery, super heavy spikeball, super armor on the pot. The character has a unique move set and legitimately stands out in a game that has 800 sword characters with counter moves.

Next Smash game should have exactly 1 Fire Emblem rep. They need to drastically cut down on the the weaboo characters.

tbf Piranha Plant is more relevant and recurring in Mario, Yoshi, and Wario games than Waluigi

Plant is unironically a great character in Smash, though.

God I completely forgot there were like, 8. That's more than a lot of classic mainstays, like Metroid or DK. How the fuck did we not get Dixie Kong? Or another Zelda rep?
Mainly due to circumstances.

  • Marth is the first Lord and the face of the series, so his being in was expected.
  • Roy was included in Melee to promote his then-upcoming game. He was added as a Marth clone, since they had no time for anything else for him. (Melee's development was notoriously rushed--13 months of development--to meet the Gamecube launch window.)
  • Ike was the most recent Lord at the time of Brawl's development, so for a new FE rep, it was either him or Lyn (and Lyn infamously got Assist Trophied).
  • Robin, again, was the most recent protagonist at the time of Smash 4's development. He was picked over the actual protagonist Chrom because Sakurai felt Robin had more to offer, and he did. Awakening is also arguably the most popular entry in the series, so that also helps.
  • Lucina was originally intended to be a Marth alt, but when they decided to change the properties of her sword to make her more beginner-friendly, she got split off to her own slot.
  • All signs point to Corrin being mandated by Nintendo to promote Fates. Even Sakurai felt that Smash 4 was already pushing it with the FE characters in the roster thus far (all five of the above), but was convinced by his team that Corrin would be a fun Fighter.
  • Chrom was heavily requested by Japanese players, and was thus added as a Roy Echo.
  • Byleth was likely picked, again, by Nintendo to promote Three Houses. Three Houses is also one of the most popular entries in the series, and I feel that there would had been less vitriol over Byleth getting in if the FE roster wasn't as big as it is.

Piranha Plant is better

Do we really need another Mario/Luigi clone?
