ROUND ONE

Neku Sakuraba

Pit: This guy's got some cool earphones, Lady Palutena! Palutena: That's Neku Sakuraba, Pit. Pit: Woah, what's with that weird energy around his hand? Joshua: Allow me to answer that, fellow angel. Viridi: Who are YOU?! Joshua: The name's Yoshiya Kiryu, but please, one angel to another... Call me Joshua. Pit: Angel... Right... Um, so, Joshua, what's th- Joshua: That "weird energy" is probably a trace of the Reapers' Game from Shibuya. A little odd, since there's no need to hold one while we're here, but I suppose if it's to allow him his Psychs... Pit: ...Psychs? Joshua: Think of it as analogous to that, "PSI" those little boys like throwing around. For example, you see that Aqua Ghost pin he's wearing? That gives him the Psych of Splash Core. Palutena: Thank you, Joshua. Pit, Splash Core is a projectile that stays immobile until it's hit. If YOU manage to hit it back while it's moving, it'll count as your KO! Pit: Um... KO?

Ghirahim

Pit: Oh, it's Ghirahim... Viridi: Not as excited to see the guy who teleports around and throws knives, huh? Pit: Yeah... Plus, that laugh he does is creepy. And the way he hangs around Ganondorf all the time... Palutena: Well, Ghirahim is the spirit of Demise's blade, and Ganondorf is the reincarnation of Demise. I trust you can make the connection yourself. Pit: The reincarnation of Demise... So, this "Demise" was before Ganondorf? Palutena: That's right. In fact, Demise was the foe of the first Link and Zelda, all the way back in the Era of Sky. There's some time travel involved, but not too much. Viridi: Back to the dancing fool. He's a master swordsman, stupid cloak aside. If you attack him at the wrong time, he'll catch your blades and deliver a mean counterstrike! Since he's also a sword, it'll hurt big time. So try not to fall for it, okay, Pit?

Shadow the Hedgehog vs Jacky Bryant

Magnus vs Makoto Naegi

Neku Sakuraba vs Ghirahim

Arcade Bunny vs Glamrock Freddy

I FORGOR! A DAY LATE, but WE'RE BACK IN BUSINESS! We've got a COUPLE of veterans this time around, and three more are or were ASSIST TROPHIES (not counting SHADOW). Let's not get TOO much into this, by the way, we're just playing FOR FUN! Even so, GIVE IT ALL YOU'VE GOT! THIS IS TUNA WITH BACON!

GO!

ROUND ONE

Arcade Bunny

Pit: Lady Palutena, look! It's the Arcade Bunny! Palutena: Oh, yes, I remember him. Pit: I used to play those badge cranes for hours, remember, Lady Palutena? Palutena: I'm aware. Pit: Remember the little pixel badges they had of me? It's a shame they didn't have any of you, Lady Palutena. Palutena: Remember how much money you spent trying to get them? Pit: ...S-So, fighting him! Palutena: Oh, I'll take care of this myself. Pit: Wait! Lady Palutena, watch out for the Hammer Crane! You'll be sent flying if you don't counter in ti- LADY PALUTENAAAAAAA!

Glamrock Freddy

Pit: Woah! A kid just came out of Freddy! Did he just give birth? Viridi: He's a robot. He can't give birth. Pit: You don't know that! Viridi: What do you MEAN I wouldn't know that?! Palutena: Pit, Freddy has a compartment inside of him for holding cakes and presents and the like. He is, after all, the face of Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex. Pit: But who's the kid? Palutena: That's... Gregory. I don't have information on him. Odd. Viridi: It seems like he can call Freddy whenever he likes so that he can climb into him. So you're essentially fighting two people, not just Freddy. Pit: Aw man, I don't want to hurt a kid... Palutena: Well, the kid's probably going to hurt you. When he's on his own, he'll be shooting you with the Fazerblaster, and when he's in Freddy, he'll have Freddy take your picture with the Faz-Camera. Neither do much damage, but you'll be stunned either way if you're facing them. Just don't look directly at the light.

ROUND ONE

Magnus

Pit: Hey, is that Magnus? Heeey! Magnus! Over here! Magnus: What- Oh, angel face. Figure'd I'd see you here. Pit: Of course! You were an Assist Trophy for a bit, so of course it would only be a matter of time before you made it big! Magnus: Feels a little weird, but I'm glad to be on the battlefield longer. Gaol sends her regards, by the way. Palutena: Tell Magnus I do apologize for what happened to her. Viridi: Um, do we even need to give Pit advice here? He's beaten Magnus once before, hasn't he? Pit: Yeah, but that was different. This is a whole different way to fight! Magnus: Having another private conversation with your goddess, angel face? Pit: Just- Getting advice on fighting you! Magnus: HA! Then I guess I don't have to go easy on you. Pit: Gulp.

Makoto Naegi

Pit: Huh. He seems like an ordinary guy. Palutena: That's Makoto Naegi! He's a student at Hope's Peak Academy, a vocational high school. Viridi: Vocational? What discipline? Palutena: All of them! Every student is the best of the best at their talents, ranging from Swimming to Fortune Telling to Gambling! Since Makoto here won a lottery out of every high school student in Japan, he's the Ultimate Lucky Student. Pit: Can luck be a talent? It's not exactly something you train in. Palutena: Well, strange things do happen around him. Pit, if he starts Concentrating, those Truth Bullets he collects as the match goes on will start to home in on you! Keep up the pressure to break his concentration!

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

Shadow

Pit: Oh, that's Sonic! Heeeey! Sonic! Dark Pit: You idiot! That's not Sonic! Pit: Pittoo?! Dark Pit: That's Shadow the Hedgehog! Fifty years ago, he was created on the Space Colony ARK as a genetic experiment using the cells from the alien Black Doom by Gerald Robotnik. He was commissioned by G.U.N. as an ultimate weapon, but Gerald was using him to help find a cure for his daughter's autoimmune disease, and that's when Maria and Shadow became close friends. But G.U.N. found out about it, and they were sent to eliminate the entire space colony, so Maria, with her last breath, sent Shadow to Earth. He was then unfrozen by Maria's cousin, Dr. Eggman, and he's slowly come to terms with his own identity. Oh, and FYI, by the way, Shadow may LOOK like Sonic, but that's because Gerald misunderstood a prophecy on the walls and deliberately modeled Shadow after Super Sonic. If you think he's going to fight EXACTLY like Sonic, you're DEAD wrong! He can fire Chaos Lances, teleport with Chaos Control, and he even has Chaos Nightmare as well! Do NOT underestimate Shadow the Hedgehog! Pit: ...Wow, Pittoo, you really know a lot about Shadow. Dark Pit: Obviously. He's the coolest! Pit: So, uh... Can you give me any actual advice on fighting him? Dark Pit: Not a chance. Pit: HEY! GET BACK HERE!

Jacky Bryant

Pit: This guy looks so cool! It's like he's ready to race! Palutena: That's Jacky Bryant, an indy car racer known as the Blue Lightning! Both he and his sister, Sarah, are accomplished fighters, as well. Pit: A racer? Like Captain Falcon? Viridi: No, the F-Zero races are in space and in zero gravity. He's just a regular gas-guzzling car racer. Pit: Well, he's also SUPER fast! Those kicks are faster than lightning! It's like I'm moving in slow-motion... Palutena: His Jeet Kune Do moves all lead into each other VERY well, Pit! If you're caught in a combo, just... Wiggle around, I guess. Viridi: Ugh, you're hopeless against fast fighters! Pit, if you're facing a fighter like Jacky, don't just let yourself get caught! Space him out and get him frustrated! If he wants to get it done fast, wait it out! Make him go at YOUR speed! Pit: Wow, that was... Helpful, Viridi! Viridi: Yeah, I'm pretty good at this, aren't I? Palutena: Well...

do you mind reblogs with fan movesets or do you prefer to come up with them yourself?

I HAVE MOVESETS FOR EACH AND EVERY CHARACTER. However, I don't mind OTHER PEOPLE MAKING MOVESETS! That's just more PROPAGANDA!!! REBLOG AWAY!!!!!

[super-smash-bracket]

yall see that nick all star brawl 2 announcement that shit was crazy bro

Hector vs Don-Chan

Karate Joe vs Sissel

eShop Bag vs Mach Rider

Zagreus vs Igglybuff

We're in the SECOND HALF of the Bracket! Of the THIRTY-TWO fighters that made it through in the last half, SEVEN were UNDERDOGS! Fascinating! That being said, LET'S NOT SLEEP ON ANYONE IN THE SECOND HALF!

GO!

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

Zagreus

Pit: There's something... Divine about this guy. Palutena: Hm... Let's see... Wait. Zagreus?! Viridi: No way. THAT Zagreus?! Pit: Should I know Zagreus? Palutena: Well... Let's just say... Viridi: That's Hades's son, Pit! Pit: Hades has a SON?! Oh no. Do you think he's here for revenge? Palutena: Hardly. Zagreus is Hades's secret son who was raised by Nyx. He desperately wants to break out of the Underworld and reach the surface. Looks like he's made it out alright! Viridi: Even so, you're not the only one who can call on a goddess's assistance, Pit. Zagreus can invoke a random Boon that completely changes how his moves work! Palutena: You should be careful of all of them, but especially the boon of Dionysus! You'll be so enraptured in the fogs of delirium that you'll be unable to move in the right direction! Pit: Yipes! At least the gods he calls on are fickle...

Igglybuff

Pit: Aww, it's Igglybuff! Palutena: Igglybuff, the Balloon Pokémon. Number 174 in the Pokédex, and Jigglypuff's pre-evolution. Viridi: Looks like it's joining the baby squad with Pichu! Pit: Since Jigglypuff evolves from Igglybuff, do you think they'll fight the same. Palutena: Almost. Since Igglybuff's even lighter than Jigglypuff, it needs some hard-hitting moves. It has Hyper Voice and Double-Slap, but what you need to watch out for is Sleep Talk. Pit: Sleep Talk? What does that do? Viridi: It'll take a nap right on the field. If you hit it at all, Pit, you'll get sent flying instead of it! Basically, don't wake the baby, okay? Pit: Yeah, yeah...

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

eShop Bag

Pit: Aww, Lady Palutena, look! That's the little guy from the eShop! Palutena: That's right, Pit! We've had some fun times with this little one, haven't we? Pit: Yeah... It's so nice to see them in Smash now! Viridi: I think they look a little lost, like they don't know where to go. Does it even want to fight? Palutena: If you must know, Viridi, the eShop Bag is more than capable to fighting. Be careful when its friend, Flipnote Frog, jumps out! It can draw barriers with its leaps, so it can change the terrain as it moves! Pit: FLIPNOTE FROG IS HERE TOO?! Do we HAVE to fight?!

Mach Rider

Pit: That's SUCH a cool bike! Palutena: Glad you think so, Pit! That's the Mach Rider, who comes from a bleak future where the world has been taken over by aliens piloting Quadrunners. It's up to them to clear the sectors and save any survivors! Viridi: So, an antihero of sorts? I can't imagine much comfort in someone blasting through a wall with a machine gun in hand. Palutena: Oh, Pit, good on you for noticing the motorcycle, because Mach Rider is a very fast opponent. Look out for when they kick those oil drums at you. Pit: Really? What do they do? Palutena: Well, nothing, but they'll burst into an oil slick if you're not careful, and then the whole stage will be too slippery to stop. Just try not to fall for it.

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

Karate Joe

Palutena: So, Pit, how's it going? Pit: I mean, not good? This guy feels non-stop! Palutena: Well, it's Karate Joe! He comes from a long line of karate men. Viridi: I thought karate was about breaking boards. What does punching flower pots and the occasional cast-iron pot have to do with that? Palutena: Viridi, isn't it obvious? Pit: So, Lady Palutena, any advice? Palutena: When he uses his Crop Stomp move, don't reflect the onions he'll launch at you. Instead, shield so that they can fall on the ground. That way, you can eat them to regain health! Pit: Oh, floor onions! Neat! Viridi: I'd argue they were on the floor to begin with...

Sissel

Pit: That's weird. I'm getting this chill in the air, like there's a ghost nearby. Viridi: That's because you're fighting a ghost, Pit. That's Sissel, a phantom who possesses inanimate objects! Palutena: Once he has possession of those objects, he can manipulate them using something called a "Ghost Trick". Every ghost has different tricks, you know. Pit: I see... But he's not possessing them right now, right? Because he's summon random objects and he's not possessing them THEN. Palutena: The answer to that's a little complicated, Pit. Instead, you should watch out for the Phone Lines! Ghosts can travel through phone lines, you know, and if you think you'll be able to space him out, you'll be dead wrong.

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

Hector

Pit: Wait, I think I recognize this guy! It's Lyn's friend, Hector! Palutena: That's right, Pit! Hector is the Marquess of Ostia, and the future father of Roy's friend, Lilina. He's also a lifelong friend of Lyn and Roy's father, Eliwood. Viridi: That axe he's carrying... It's crackling with destiny. Palutena: Hm... You're right. But, that's for future Hector. Right now, he's as reckless as ever, and as solid as a rock! Pit, he'll be a bit hard to launch thanks to his heavy armor, but Armads might be the least of your worries. Pit: Wait, why? Palutena: Because he also has a Hand Axe. They tend to curve upwards when thrown, so they're the perfect weapon to take out flying targets like you. Pit: Gulp...

Don-chan

Pit: It's Don-chan! Ba-Dum ka, Da-dum, Ba-dum, Da-dum- Palutena: I see you're finding your rhythm. Pit: I can't help it! His drumming is so infectious! Viridi: I'd imagine so, since he's a walking, talking taiko drum. Palutena: Of course, being a taiko drum, Don-chan is all about moves that involve a little sound. Pit, watch out for his Taiko Beat! He has two kinds of projectiles for this move, Dons and Kats! Viridi: Also, that tackle attack he can do electrifies him! What do drums even have to do with electricity? Pit: Uh, rolling thunder and rolling drums! Viridi: Yeah, I guess that's fair.

[super-smash-bracket]

I wonder if the followers remember the PALUTENA'S GUIDANCES...

Chain Chomp vs Artorias the Abysswalker

GO!

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

Gordon Freeman

Pit: Woah, this guy looks serious! Is he in the right place? Palutena: That's Dr. Gordon Freeman, a theoretical physicist previously employed by Black Mesa. Pit: Theoretical physicist? ...So he ISN'T a real doctor. Viridi: I've heard of Black Mesa. They do a lot of research into nuclear energy and the like. Pit: I'm, uh, sensing some anger in your voice. So, what do you think of nuclear energy, Viridi? Viridi: I'm indifferent to it. The sun's a giant nuclear reactor, you know, so I know a lot about the actual processes. What I DON'T trust is humans with that technology! They'll destroy themselves working with that stuff! Palutena: Discourse on applied nuclear sciences aside, you should watch out for Gordon's Laser Tripmines! They can be set up anywhere and remotely detonated!

The Prisoner

Pit: Am I seeing things, or does this guy... Not have a head? Palutena: That's the Prisoner! It's... A little hard to explain, but think of him as a revenant. Pit: A... Revenant? Viridi: Ugh, you know, a ghost possessing a dead body? Pit: Oh, so he's not a zombie? That's so cool! Viridi: So, you'd be scared if he was a zombie, but you're not scared that he's a reanimated corpse? Pit: Yeah? Viridi: What's the difference? Pit: There's PLENTY of difference! Palutena: Well, I was GOING to tell you that you should avoid getting hit when the Prison detaches his head, since if it sticks to you, it'll drain your health and won't let go. But, I'll just wait until you're both finished. Viridi: So, if a ghost were to possess a zombie? Pit: That's still scary, since it's still a zombie! Viridi: Do you hear yourself?!

[super-smash-bracket]

ROUND ONE

Heavy

Pit: Lady Palutena, this guy's huge! Paluetena: That's the Heavy Weapons Guy, or just Heavy, for short! He's a Soviet mercenary on hire by Mann Co.! Pit: To... Do what? Palutena: Heavy's huge size says it all; he's a powerhouse that can't move very fast! Viridi: Yeah, that's obvious, but what is he being hired to do? Palutena: He can recover health with his Sandvich, Pit. However, if you knock it out of his hands before he eats it, YOU can heal off of it, and he'll have to make another one! Pit: Ooh, floor sandvich! Viridi: WHAT'S HEAVY BEEN HIRED TO DO?!

Psyduck

Pit: I always feel bad for Psyduck. Viridi: Yeah, having a constant headache can't be fun. Palutena: Psyduck is a Water-type Pokémon, so you can expect some Water-type moves, Pit. However, that headache... Pit: Huh? What about it? Palutena: Well, if Psyduck's headache gets bad enough... It'll enter a trance state, more or less. While it's like that, all of it's moves will be stronger than normal, and some will even be entirely different moves! Pit: Wait, so... I just can't hit Psyduck? Viridi: What's wrong? I thought you felt bad for it. Pit: I do! Just... I also wanted to win...
