This would be epic!!

Bold are my notes.

Errrm... what?

On the other hand, I think if Lucas gets in SSF2, I think PM Offence Up should be his D-Spec

No, leave Lucas as he is now.

Lucas' Smash Attacks are strong on their own, he doesn't need any of those stupid moves he got in PM.

^Gotta love that overpowered Up-Smash

How is a move that easy to punish OP

to be fair his normal smash attacks were weakened and have smaller hitboxes to compensate for offense up
also i really like what pm did with his normals and airs

I'm normally not one to say things like this, but if the Multi-Man Smash enemies are clones/simple edits/pallette swaps of the normal characters, I would love it if they were to be selectable as a single icon, as an Edgemaster/Charade/Mokujin-type character, randomizing with every KO.

Normally a character like that wouldn't be possible/feasible in a sprite-based game due to the sheer amount of animations involved, but if it were something like that, I could see it working, and I love using those types of characters. But the closest I can get is choosing Random in All-Star Versus in PM.

Random thought, instead of "simple edits" and all that, how about the regular character sprite with a lot more Black "Overlay" or whatever you call that, so they appear to be "Dark Versions" of the cast...

If possible, add an aura to them. Preferably Black, Purple, or Dark Red...

Also, maybe some modifications to their movesets? I mean, BBM's Bombs would be useless once he switches, unless they explode upon Death or something... Kirby style Neutral-B? and Unique specials? Maybe a "Transform" or "Reformat" or (keeping in theme with the Sprite-based game +pun bonus) "Resprite" (LOL) as a D-spec where they "change" to another character... with some technology+magic effects and all that... or something...

Woah. Woah woah woah. Woah. We're not adding an OC like Blade/Blue here.
I suggested whatever the Multi-Man enemies will be specifically because they're already going to be in the game, assuming they'll be clones of existing characters like the Fighting Polygon Team was (which is actually what I'm hoping for specifically, honestly; their sprites would be relatively simple to make).

As for moveset modifications/freely transforming, no. Just no. That would defeat the entire point and would also make them look like an OC.

On the topic of Multiman Characters
Even though they're not the best option, might I suggest the Primids?
They're pretty neat, have moves they can do from SSE and get knocked around like flies anyway

Either them or make a callback to the Fighting Polygon Team and make everyone have this pure purple scale (Sorta like how some characters have a Black/White coloration like or , but with shades of Purple instead of Monochromatic and call them the "Fighting Pixel Team" or something
(Albeit they'd probably have to round it down and not have everyone in for the sake of character loading, if we were to go with only 5 I would suggest , , , and )

Those would be neat

That reminds me. There actually were dark versions of characters in the Subspace Emissary, like the Shadow Bug Princesses and Diddy. Explicitly putting them in that context would make them somewhat feasible.

...
...you know what, after the full game's out and expansions are a thing, I'm just going to try to sprite Charade himself. It'll have been long enough to at least start learning how to by then :p

's bombs should explode upon death anyway. By death I mean when he completely runs out of stocks of course.

I didn't mean for it to sound like an OC, I just thought it might be an interesting idea... I mean, Sandbag never had the ability to Bob-Omb recovery, "Wave Dodge", nor Aerial Grab... Capsules are forgivable... I guess...

On the note of characters... I had this random idea a few months ago of Spongebob being playable... I mean, I was playing Revenge of the Flying Dutchman on my GBA emulator... I also remembered the nicktoons games... I had one on my old DS... Spongebob can also have a unique moveset... But the game would probably get 50% more flak than it already has if we add another 4th party char and that 4th party char is Spongebob...

Better idea: It shows the hitboxes and attackboxes without the sprites with saturation set to 0, the contrast set to 100, and the alpha set to -100 to make sure there's no transparency. That can give the effect of something being like the fighting polygon team.
