>>58946456Pokémon Trainer is a cool Fighter because they're directly representing in Smash the idea of a Pokémon Trainer and the gameplay of Pokémon.
>>58948206>>58949089>Them all being different stages helps incentivize switching between Pokemon depending on the situation rather than them being samey heavy weights.>Venusaur is too heavy and can't move easily like Ivysaur. Venusaur isn't nimble enough to do 90% of Ivysaur's moves.That's kind of a strange thing.
In Pokémon Evolution makes Pokémon more powerful despite also making them bigger and often more heavier. So for an accurate representation of Pokémon, the logic of bigger-and-heavier=equals less fast and nimble shouldn't be used. Another reason they likely used Ivysaur and Squirtle is because they wanted to represent three different evo stages. First stage, middle stage and final stage. But that feels like a strange and unnecessary thing to want to represent.
