Nintendo Wii Media | Smash Update: Returning Pok

In my opinion, they should have explained what they do, for some people have not played the other smash bros games.

is it just me, or are the graphical models of these pokemon not as polished as other characters in this game?

You've never played a smash bros games before then i'm guessing.
Suicune=Blizzard
Lugia= Aeroblast/psychic
Entei=Blast burn(fire comes out of the ground like an eruption)
Staryu=swift
Bellossom= sleep powder
Ho-oh = fire spin
Wobbuffet = counter
Togepi = metronome(has very little effect)
Snorlax= body slam
Celebi= no idea
Mew = just appears
Electrode(not seen above)= explosion(can turn out to be a dud)

Any way, they're good additions and clefairy should be there aswell. and yeah the models aren't really that polished but that wouldn't actually matter.

Seems to me like they're the exact same models from Melee, as are the stages. Reused models ahoy! From like... 6 years ago.

Pokemon Stadium had better models and textures than that.

I know what you mean, since they're based on the N64 models, but they are better than Pok

Mew's dropping a CD for what looks like whatsisface from Earthbound. He's not a playable is he?

Final Mew actually does something, and not stand there and leave.

Fatman, YOU FAIL!

My god they look ugly!

Terrible models. Why not use the PBR ones or at least update them.

It's probably because there on screen for about 5 seconds at most, usally covered with some fire or magic effect and the camera is usally zoomed out so far you don't notice.

Its just intelligent use of resources. You don't really need the models to look shiny and perfect when the camera is never zoomed in on them like in these pictures. Also as Blade said, they are generally covered in some sort of 'magical sheen' anyway.

Yeah in Smash Bros 64 every single one of them was a picture that had no animation at all

I guess it's because they don't appear for very long at all.

Yeah i agree they only appear for a few seconds so apart from screens i will never notice, but couldn't they have used Pokemon Battle Revolution models.....

I don't think it could have hurt to use the Battle Revolution models. The assets were already created, afterall.

True enough, but I'd rather them put effort elsewhere then trying to make the many, many Pokemon models that appear on screen for just a few seconds better looking. Though if better models are easily available from Revolution then they don't have much of an excuse I suppose.

It's not the worst update of them all, but could have been better.

Well, one more out of the way to the TRUE updates.
