Yeah, it's obviously Ness's confirmation.

Q: Why does it say MOTHER on this item?
A: BECAUSE WE'RE FREAKIN' GIVING AWAY THE FACT THAT NESS WILL BE IN THE GAME!!

Interesting. It may be something I'll turn off in the Item Switch, though. I'm not too hot on it.

As Ness was in the first two SSB games, I doubt that is what it's hinting at. If it was supposed to hint at Ness is in the game, it would have said "Earthbound" or "Mother 2" on the badge. However, the design of the Franklin Badge is the same as the one that came with the deluxe version of Mother 3, which may hint at Lucas or a character from Mother 3 having made it into Brawl. Or better yet stages from Mother 3 and even possibly an official translation of it.

Well, now that I think about it, Mallow might not work so well. HE CAN'T JUMP XD. Assist trophy would work, though.

Another new character. Dude, this is awesome in a very weird way o_O
Pokemon trainer! What a wimp! Letting the others do the fighting for him, heh.
I hope that changing his color also changes his outfit, because the Fire Red/Leaf Green guy looks so boring
*Wonders about his final Smash* Legendary?

[Moonbread]

But it does sound exciting fighting him. Think about it. You'd have to switch your strategy every time he switched pokemon. And maybe, as an alternate outfit, they'd have the girl version, so maybe that's why he doesn't have a name.

I've always wanted a Pokemon trainer in SSB. Why couldn't he have been in Melee?

[Moonbread]

Looking at them closely, it's kinda strange how Pokemon has always seemed less-developed than other games, graphically. The figures here look like Action Figures or something along the lines of that.

The Pok�mon Trainer from FireRed and LeafGreen? In SSBB?! That's very interesting!

All the more reason for me to get this game!

That's 'cause they're based on the anime and they're not realistic-looking.

I can't say I'm that interested in the Pokemon trainer. I'd rather use Pikachu, myself.

... depends on how beastly Charizard is, though.

[ShadowTiger]

He's just the "Generic Pokemon Trainer." If anything, the point is to make him the MOST GENERIC he can get! He's no hero. He's just the tool with which to present his pokemon for battle.


Man. It'll be really weird to face him as Pikachu.

[Sharon Daniel]

Not too weird... It's like a trainer against a wild Pokemon. A fairly even match.

[Dawnlight]

I hope his SUper Smash is not Frenzied Plan, HydroCannon, or Blast Burn.

[Sharon Daniel]

I WOULD LOVE IT TO BE FRENZY PLANT!

Frenzy Plant is great. In my stupid fanfic/fanart I always have a Tangela that uses Frenzy Plant. IT'S THE BEST!

[The Satellite]

Maybe the Final Smash is all the Pokemon coming out and shooting a super beam, or something.

Or maybe the Trainer throws pokeballs, captures the other fighters, bangs them around, and then casts them back out.

[Animus01]

So, the FireRed/LeafGreen trainer shows up in Brawl. That's gotta be interesting. I'm interested in how the Pokemon fight, myself, and how it works in matches. We need a video of this guy in action!

The Final Smash could be anything. I'm hoping the most that it would be a Legendary Pokemon. But, Mewtwo is a character in Melee, so I'm sure he won't be the Final Smash in Brawl. I can't really think of a Pokemon that would successfully be a Final Smash Pokemon.
