May for Brawl

[Shadow Calibur]

May, the female protagonist in Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald. Now why would I want her in?

- Sole human representative for the Pokemon franchise
- 3rd generation rep. Also 'cuz I don't want the franchise as a whole to be represented in the roster.
- Female character, something that Brawl needs more of.
- half popular, half obscure.
- Popularity: Starred in the anime, along with 3 movies (or four, but who's countin'?)
- Interesting to see a human character in the Pokemon part of the roster.

^Yeah, I'm not very good with my reasoning. Sue me. But still, these are good enough reasons.^

Advantages: Attacks have good range, fast movement speed
Disadvantages: Lightweight, Low resistance to damage.

(WINNING POSES)
1. Rolls a Pokeball on her shoulders, pops it in the air, then catches it. Think of Dr. Mario's taunt.
2. Puts her hands behind her, crosses her legs, and looks at the camera with her head down. She smiles.
3. Pets Latias, saying "Good Job!"

I know that she probably won't make it to the Brawl roster, but it doesn't hurt to wish. Feel free to comment, compliment, trash, bash, whatever.

And try to use good reasoning as to why you want her or don't want her in Brawl.

 

[Shark X]

As cute as she is, I'm sure there was a brand new topic for her around here somewhere...either that or someone discussed createing one. Pokemon needs a human representative. May's the cutest for it.

For Once, Me & Shark X Comes Too An Agreement

Yes, May Is Sexy, Id **** Her Anyday, But Ash Has A Better Chance!
& Even His Is Low.

 

[xianfeng]

It's ok and your reasoing does suck, but replace the summoning moves with something else like wailmer pail, Fishing Rod, Mach Brace. I don't know pokemon items

[Shark X]

Actually the funny thing is, I just did a search, and no May topics popped up, not even this one.

 

[Shadow Calibur]

Shark X: Well I have something to say to those people: I got dibs first. Neener.
magar: Screw Ash. Give the more obscre character a chance to shine.
xianfeng: I'll try to look for some alternatives. Thanks for the tip.

Glad everyone's OK with the suggestion.

 

[Shark X]

Ash would be called Red if he ever made it in...what would May be called? I never played beyond Blue and Yellow, so I don't know May's default name.

Ash Is A Legend And Has A Way Better Chance Than May
But, I Was Thinking Wann't Misty A Trophy In SSBM?
& Prof. Oak Who Started It All!
Think Of Those

 

[Shadow Calibur]

Ash would be called Red if he ever made it in...what would May be called? I never played beyond Blue and Yellow, so I don't know May's default name.

May'd just be called May, I figure.

magar: I thought, they stunk.

 

[Shark X]

Always confused me that Misty had a trophy, and Red or Blue didn't. But Misty is cute too anyway O.o At least Oak had a reason for being a trophy.

 

[magar]

May'd just be called May, I figure.

magar: I thought, they stunk.

Well, May Is Just 2 **** Sexy & A Late Enter In The Pokemon World

So, She Has Allmost No Chance

 

[Tomasiarity]

May is actually a good idea for a non-Pokemon character. Cuz she is the only character that got to the anime without getting a serious makeup (Example: Red to Ash). For the first post moveset, I agree with xianfeng. If you give her a moveset based on the anime, she becomes an anime character. And you know what Sakurai thinks about anime characters ;D...
So you should give her Ruby/Sapphire moves. Like Wailmer Pail, Mach Bike, Super Rod, etc. With May inclusion on Brawl, an Emerald style color becomes obligatory.

 

[Iggy K]

I don't see why we need a human represntative for pokemon anyway, leave the pokemon representation to the pokemon, if the third gen was represented, it'd be Deoxys or Blaziken, and if they were to add a human representative, it'd be Red.

If I "May" Interupt, I Agree w/ da iggy

 

[Shadow Calibur]

Tomasiarity: Oog, I forgot. I edited her moveset a bit.
Iggy: I figured the 3rd generation needs at least 2 representatives: Deoxys and May.

 

[Shark X]

So your saying her game name was May too? Sweet.

If you give her a moveset based on the anime, she becomes an anime character. And you know what Sakurai thinks about anime characters.

Then explain the inclusion of Pikachu, Pichu, and Jigglypuff.

EDIT: Deoxys would be a good rival for Mewtwo. Was Deoxys evil in the games too, or just the series?

 

[Shadow Calibur]

Then explain the inclusion of Pikachu, Pichu, and Jigglypuff.

Those three were some of the most popular Pokemon in Japan, not by the anime alone but by the games.

 

[Iggy K]

EDIT: Deoxys would be a good rival for Mewtwo. Was Deoxys evil in the games too, or just the series?

Well in the movie, it was revealed there was more than one(though it's not like the anime should be taken for fact) and Rayquaze attacked two Deoxys which came to earth, I'm not netirkey sure but I think one gets badly wounded and lost, so the other Deoxys goes on a rampage to find it, when does thanks to Ash and co, the two Deoxys go away and that's it, so, no, I guess kinda not. I don't think it did anyhting evil in the games either.

 

[Shark X]

So I guess Mewtwo still holds the record for the only evil Pokemon. Kinda sucks, but it still makes Mewtwo unique I guess. that, and being a man-made Pokemon. And being an Anti-Pokemon.

EDIT: Wait, Mewtwo was only Anti-Pokemon in the series.

 

[magar]

Well, Twas A Great Series

 

[Iggy K]

So I guess Mewtwo still holds the record for the only evil Pokemon. Kinda sucks, but it still makes Mewtwo unique I guess. that, and being a man-made Pokemon. And being an Anti-Pokemon.

EDIT: Wait, Mewtwo was only Anti-Pokemon in the series.

One of the major factors that I want to keep Mewtwo in brawl.

 

[GaryCXJk]

I myself prefer one of the PokeGirls, and since I do prefer May over Misty anytime, I'd also call for a May. She's just better personality-wise, and is more kind to Ash. I do think the relationship Ash-May currently is just a brother-sister relationship, but I do hope this will change later on, because Ash and May belong together.

Other than that, May's just cute. Yeah, if I was into lolicon I would say I'd love to bang her, but I see her more as a love interest for Ash, and I'd like to keep it that way thank you.

Indeed, and by the end of the first movie and even troughout the Mewtwo Returns special you'll see that Mewtwo isn't as bad as we think, he's just badass.

Get it? Bad as, badass. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Never mind.

Ya, Ur too Much Of A DK Nerd

I used to love pokemon now there's like 400 of them so that me a non poke fan. I remember for my 6th birthday I got like heaps of pokemon stuff I got all the gameboy games, a giant pikachu it was great I still have heaps of it

 

[FiErCe_oNi]

may is a 10 year old pokemon co-ordinator, i dont think she can fight. i think pokemon trainers shouldnt be characters, i think 1 pokemon should represent them (like pikachu representing ash)

 

[tirkaro]

may is a 10 year old pokemon co-ordinator, i dont think she can fight.

naw, may didn't do that co-ordinator stuff in the games. and you sayin girls cant fight? they should just put in may instead of ash/red soley for the reason to show 8 year old sexists who play this game.
>.>
<.<
I'm not gay!

EDIT: as for the serious topic, may should certainly be in because smash needs more females
but she definetly shouldn't replace deoxys for the 3rd gen. deoxys 4ever! so they should put in may AND deoxys for brawl....okay, yeah that would result in too many pokemon chars, but I can dream can I?

 

[FiErCe_oNi]

i dont think ash should be in the game, i think hes strongest pokemon should though (charizard and grovyle), ash is short and he isnt a fighter. the movesets they giv him always hav him using his pokemon to attack, i got a better idea, make his pokemon characters, then the game wouldnt need him

captain falcon certainly wasn't a fighter, but did they make the blue falcon playble? no!
the point is, if s/he is from a game,s/ he can get in fine.

 

[FiErCe_oNi]

captain falcon was a fighter in the anime and stuff, he IS a bounty hunter, he carrys a gun with him. even though he hasnt been in a non racing game doesnt mean he is just a racer, but have u ever seen or heard of ash or any pokemon trainer fighting by itself?

the anime came out AFTER melee. I mean tyson granger/Takao Kinomiya from beyblade got in dream mix TV. I mean, it doesn't get any lower then beyblade, but he was a good fighter. so why cant any poketrainers? they could be given new movesets for the game.

 

[FiErCe_oNi]

why are you talking about beyblades? huh? wtf? i dont understand anything you just said, just that beyblades somehow gives pokemon trainers an excuse to be fighters in ssbb?

 

[tirkaro]

I'm using tyson as an example that anyone, no matter who they are, can work in a fighting game, or in this case, SSBB. I cant make that any more clear
plus that post of yours pretty much gives away that I have you beat

 

[FiErCe_oNi]

beat at what? i dont get what you said, that because some guy off the most stupid show ever can fight, that means that pokemon trainers should be in ssbb? can u please explain that?

 

[GaryCXJk]

First of all, Bayblades was a decent show. It wasn't as "stupid" as you said, I've seen more stupid anime. Second, his point was that Tyson, from the television series, a non-fighter, participated in DreamMix TV. If you don't know what DreamMix TV is, it's a video game similar to Super Smash Bros.

DreamMix TV

 

[tirkaro]

alright, I'll make the obvious even more clear if you want.

may is a 10 year old pokemon co-ordinator, i dont think she can fight. i think pokemon trainers shouldnt be characters, i think 1 pokemon should represent them (like pikachu representing ash)

i dont think ash should be in the game, i think hes strongest pokemon should though (charizard and grovyle), ash is short and he isnt a fighter.

right here you said that the pokemon trainers cant fight.
tyson worked well in DMTV, and tyson is short, 12 years old, and he uses freaking tops.(that has to be one bad @$$ top)
ash is basicaly no different from tyson, besides the fact that ash uses actual pokemon instead of superpowered plastic novelties.
you actualy PLAYED as the pokemon trainers in the games. you never played as the pokemon, you only told them orders. so the pokemon trainers actualy should have had a better chance then the normal pokemon to be in the games.
do I have to make this anymore clear?

 

[FiErCe_oNi]

well yeah, about that game. i thought u were talkin about a tv show network or sumthin, lol.
but i think that it would be like, in the front of the screen (that the player cant see) the trainer would be controlling the pokemon that is representing its trainer, nvm. i still think trainers shouldnt be characters. think about this, whenever all your pokemon faint, so do you, but not from battle, but from shock. so if you lose to a lvl 2 rattata u would faint? i dont think a character that faints by having their pokemon beat by a lvl 2 rattata (that they could probably crush to death) could be a single fighter, but perhaps everything i just said made no sense?

o well, yugioh sucks mroe than beyblades, "we must play a trading card game to save the world!" wtf?

 

[Drewz]

She may be able to throw pokeballs around but can she actually fight? I don't think Pokemon needs a human reprasentative.

 

[GaryCXJk]

If tennis players can be featured in a fighting game (Jump! Superstars), why can't a 10-year old kid?

 

[Espy Rose]

She may be able to throw pokeballs around but can she actually fight? I don't think Pokemon needs a human reprasentative.

Bingo. The Pokemon franchise isn't about the human trainers or any of that BS. It's about the hundreds of little critters that run around fighting each other for superiority.

No human representation for Pokemon is ever needed in Brawl.


Ever.

 

[Stryks]

I rather have her than Ash in brawl anyday.
