After reading gridatttack's post, I have to agree that it seems fake. Sorry, Kid Icarus fans, it looks like Palutena will only appear in Pit's final smash.

Interesting. More new characters, rather than veterans which people already played with them the past game(s)

But on closer look, it looks fake. See Palutena's outlines and compare them to Mario's outline. Unless you can set the outline thickness per character or the characters normally have different default outline thickness, I say its fake.

Althought i certainly hope she's not, just because there was a fake doesn't mean she wont be in the game. The best I could do is an assist trophy, but making her a character is just like giving the kid icarus series more fighters because Pit is the only one. Maybe next game a playable. Although knowing sakurai's fangasm to kid icarus, she probably will be playable.

He did direct Kid Icarus: Uprising, y'know. I'm assuming that this is going to be another case of Kirby and that we're going to get two new Kid Icarus newcomers in the same game. It's probably going to be Magnus and Palutena, but I don't think that the pictures we're seeing here are actually early leaks.

Wow, that's a shocker. I didn't think he'd come back. Then again, the more characters, the better, in my opinion.

You've got it wrong, this whole Lucario is back thing is making the chances of mewtwo coming back less ;-;, Sakurai won't have more characters, he'll simply cut characters. Why? Because he for some reason doesn't like taking use of Wii U's extra power.

That doesn't mean it at all. Who says Mewtwo and Lucario can't be together (they can just replace the Pokemon Trainer with Mewtwo). IMO Lucario returning only makes Mewtwo's inclusion more likely, since they both have Mega Evos, have been prominent and I think even Nintendo knows that Lucario vs Mewtwo is any Smash fanboy's wet dream.

NOTE: The following rant is targeted at fanboys in general. I'm not referring to SSL (even though I quoted his post above)

People forget that unlike people like Dr. Mario, Pichu, Young/Toon Link and the like, Lucario IS NOT a clone of Mewtwo. Their movesets are completely different. All they have similar is the neutral B (Shadow Ball/Aura Sphere) and a similiar but still different Forward Smash. THAT IS ALL! (and the fact that they are from the same franchise)

Mewtwo has literally no relation to Mewtwo. Its like saying that R.O.B replaced Dr. Mario in Brawl and that Lucas replaced Pichu

And I still don't understand why people want Mewtwo. He looks cool, but that's about it. He SUCKED in Melee and has multiple times been considered the worst character in the game (even worse than PICHU). I just started playing Melee again and I was incredibly disappointed with Mewtwo. The only thing he's got are great throws, great recovery and great projectile. EVERYTHING else is bad. His down smash is the worst in the game, he is easy as fuck to juggle, he is light and yet tall (the worst combination), his side-B is the worst reflector in the game (and generally useless) and while Disable can be used its really situational and will almost never work well on any people with any sort of skills. Oh, and his aerial attack suck. Hard (only remotely useful one is his forward air, which is just a worse version of well EVERYONE else's forward airs)

Lucario however was a great character, and is considered very high-tier. He has a unique gimmick that is useful, he actually has usable Aerials (Mewtwo gets my vote for worst Melee Aerials HANDS DOWN), good recovery (although Mewtwo had slightly better), good weight/height, usable finishers and all his Specials are useful except maybe for Double Team (which is still better than Confusion).

In short, the people who think that Lucario instantly means No Mewtwo, that Lucario is a clone of Mewtwo and that Mewtwo is superior character can go F*** THEMSELVES HARD!

Sorry for this rant but this is the hard truth that people have to understand and I get pissed off when casuals attack a very unique and good character just because they like a hardly-usable, worse one better.
