Can we talk about the lack of female fighters in Smash?

Can we talk about the lack of female fighters in Smash?

Gameplay is a secondary concern to diversity to me. If they choose to include a plant over another woman in a female-starving roster, don't ask me to applaud them for it. Of course all these other additions being men, Incineroar aside, does nothing to inspire confidence or goodwill either. WTF characters as you call them are fun and fine in a vacuum, but draw ire when women are as under-represented as they are.

theres just not as many nintendo+friend icons that also happen to be girls

This triggers me so much. Please put the last two tiers into the can be either category. Who cares what people call them, it's about what they are. Also Mewtwo is genderless. Mega Man and Dark Samus are not genderless. They are male and female respectively. Also who's to say whether Mr. Game & Watch is actually a male or not. Seems just as genderless as R.O.B. if you ask me but that's speculation. Good catch on Wendy.

Please make these changes, I don't want to have to remake this myself for it to be accurate

Duck Hunt is male? Guess you learn something new every day.

Pirhana plant is female

no, naval has a dick

noooooo Duck Hunt should be either. you're so close! Also it's unknown what Piranha Plant mating looks like so it's more likely agendered but that's not something we have an answer to as far as I know

No. Ivysaur don't have gender differences you swine.

What is the minimal PGR ranking to get a cinnpie gf?

Ivysaur has the deepest, most masculine voice in the game

Who cares you stupid fucking ingrate. It's a different species of animal/plant hybrid it can have the deepest voice in the world and still be female. Just because human females are higher pitched than men doesn't matter as far as Pokémon retard

The dog is almost always referred to as "he" so I don't know. Regarding Ivysaur, again only Venusaur has gender difference so again it's probably just both.Plus real Venus Fly Traps have both parts so I'm guessing PP is the same

Uh huuuh? That's Venusaur you piece of filth. As you can see there the females have a seed in their flower for pollination. You do know the difference between Ivysaur and Venusaur right user? Fun fact: Venusaur is the first Pokémon in the National Dex with a gender difference. Not Bulbasaur, or Ivysaur which have none, Venusaur.

You're either retarded or trolling either way fuck off

You're right. Smash needs more diversity. We need more female fighters, we need more quadrupeds, and we need more gods. Amaterasu for Smash.

Man, you would assume that, considering female Venusaur has a seed, it's pre-evos would as well, but it simply wouldn't be visible because the bud is closed.

EPONA

i wouldn't have found those images without typing venasaur so....
anyway, what said

A fat naked nigger babushka, she’s in!

But listen, Duck Hunt, is not just the dog of fame. It's also the duck, the hunter, and if you want to be really pedantic technically the wild gunman as well. Anyway that's not important. What's important is that the duck and dog have different patterns depending on the alt. In some of them as seen here the duck has distinctly female dymorphic features, and every dog which is not the original brown one who laughs must be both, considering at a glance we don't know what gender each dog is. Either way the correct category for Duck Hunt is both, but you can stick it in the Either tier to keep it clean

Also, as part of the "trio" the hunter is actually the one holding the light gun, which of course can be either male or female


Well you know what they say about assumptions. Ass out of you and me. Neither Bulbasaur nor Ivysaur have gender differences and must always be referred to as it/they unless otherwise specified

You're wrong. You lose. You lost. You're done. Ivysaur is not female.It doesn't matter what you think, it should be called they or it. No way around it. You've been exposed. Your logic is faulty and your character is besmirched. Leave my sight before I obliterate you further you contemptuous puny ant.

Attached: duckhuntgender.png (1413x535, 246K)

We just got a fuck ton of female fighters in Smash 4, and a couple more in Ultimate.

It has the form of a suit of armor

the logic lines up pretty well actually, the seed is there for the grown, so it should be there for the younger

its called super smash BROS. this is a fucking mans game. sorry you pussy women dont like it. this game is not for you. go play barbie. this game is for men who know what they want out of life and arent going to just sit and complain about it but actually DO IT. the only women that are in the game are there for men. for sex. like peach, palutena, samus, isabelle etc. there are not there for you to push your feminism on. they are for us guys. so stay the fuck away.

>the grown

Look at you, barely functioning brain. Pokémon do not "grow" into their evolved forms they evolve. Their cellular structure is reconstituted. There's no evidence that Ivysaur would have a a seed or not have a seed because there's no differences between the Ivysaur sexes. You cannot look at them know by looking whether it was a boy or girl. You'd have to say it's a boy if you were guessing, because the species is 87%+ male. But in most render the budding flower is completely closed, leaving the seed mystery off the table, and when it's not closed whether its a male or female cannot be discerned. As for a reference here's the ultimate render wherein the bud is slightly open but mostly closed

Anyone who puts gameplay secondary to anything shouldn't make games. Anyone who puts gameplay secondary to diversity should kill themselves

I thought you didn't care about gameplay

I think it's worth mentioning if the default is female or not.

No it isn't. Why would that be important, they're either both or they aren't no need to know what the default is

Shut the fuck up whore

why did you take that bitch's twitter post and put it on here without context?

putting that seed in there was conscious decision, couldn't have been for nothing. plus, pokemon evolution is closer to insect metamorphosis and species that go through it do have sex diferences that carry over. there seems to be more supporting that ivy is female than there isn't, isn't there?

who cares

Talking about it pushes people further and further from you from reaching your goals. Mainly because nobody gives a shit about useless women in fighting games. It is 100% true that men are stronger than women in several aspects including leadership and containing emotions and not letting them clloud our sight. Send a women into real battle and watch them collapse because "oh shit this is so scary! I would never want my kids to see this! I'm on my period no!" And cry on the battlefield only to get blown to pieces or captured and raped to death. They are made to be mothers and to nurture mankind and the generations to come. Men are made to protect that and put themselves in the way of death for a woman. Not the other way around.

You really typed this entire post to feel good about yourself when you fell for the shittiest bait I've seen in weeks.

that last tier is retarded

How is Smash Ultimate compared to Smash 3ds?
I bough 3ds recently, never played Smash before and I like it very much. But I wish characters wouldnt float in the air so much

It. Is. Not. Male. Ivysaur and its evolutions and all Kanto Pokémon were made before genders were even put into the game. The designs have changed, but when they retconned some Pokémon to have gender differences when they were introduced in Diamond and Perl, they chose not to give Ivysaur a gender. There's no way to tell if it's male or female, and it is not referred to as "he" or "she" in any official media. Therefore you must refer to it as it or they. No exceptions. Alas due to your display I can now identify that you are in fact a sub 70 IQ tribesman from the Latin jungle who doesn't know how to use toilet paper so it's no wonder you can't rub two brain cells together to figure out this really simple mental task. You stinky filthy third world piece of shit. How's like as a 4 foot nothing brown smelly goblin women won't get near with a 10 foot pole?

There already are 20 female fighters in Ultimate. 21 if you count the gunner, fuck off.

If you want to count Wendy as a female newcomer then the number of males skyrocket because you have to count Larry, Roy, Iggy, Lemmy, Morton, and Ludwig.

MegaMAN you fucking idiot.

That is not what is implied

I agree with you honestly, but in the interest of absolute clarity it must be done. Yoshi is the species and it has been said numerous times that Yoshis can be both male and female, although they are often called males, it's possible they are all hermaphrodites considering males of the species produce eggs. As for "Mr." Game & Watch, the title is simply an affectation given so that the amalgam of Game & Watch games he pulls his moves from can be given some character to represent them. He physically changes his form into several different entities, and while you can assume they might all coincidentally be male, there's nothing stopping the octopus he transforms into from being a female or the lion tamer or the chef. Granted the latter two look traditionally male, but what's to say that denizens of Flat World, despite having the visage of men and women are actually biologically men or women.

In other words, if anything Piranha Plant, Mr. Game & Watch, and Yoshi could all be in their own tier called "unspecified". I could change it to that if it suits your fancy, but this way is more clear.

Okay shut the fuck up. I am GAY and I think this diversity bullshit is retarded. Gameplay beats everything.

genders are a thing now so inclusion and exclusion of seed has meaning. also I usually fuck white girls, they're way easier

It is called super smash "bros". If anything they should remove all the female characters. It's arguably false advertising.

There are so many goddamn girls in Smash. Are you retarded?

Yeah I'm suuuuure you do you Gabriel Iglesias looking mother fucker. I bet your sweaty beaner slime is making your wife beater stick to your fat poop brown man tits as you type buddy. You don't have a chance in hell of ever getting your tiny limp splotchy pecker anywhere near a girl who doesn't have diabetes and a limb, some horrifying rancid la goblina with missing teeth and BO that smells like tortillas left out in the Oaxacan sun for 8 years. In your veins runs the blood of those cartel """""people"""" who slowly kill your own brothers in the most brutal savage and disgusting ways possible and LAUGH. They LAUGH you fat fingered roach coach lawnmower pushing dish washing libtard cuck who votes how the jews tell you to vote because you don't have the brain power to think your way out of simple easy to understand problems like does Ivysaur have visual indicators that let you see what its gender is by looking.

Answer: no it doesn't

So go behead your own people to the giant snake god somewhere else, and remember that you'll never ever get the land we took from you guys.
Byeee byeee byeee! Bye! See ya later beaner! Fucking retard.

keep the land, i consider it fair trade for the girls. tho i am gonna miss female ivysaur she was the best

It really shouldn't matter, as a crossover they should (and do) do their best to simply represent games best as they can and make sure they can be fun. To go for diversity would cheapen the feeling tremendously.

Still made this because these iffy lists were triggering me. You guys don't even do it by number, fuckin posers.

All pokemon other than Mewtwo could also be female, even though all the ones based off starters skew 87.5% to male.

seeing as that's the jiggles from the pokemon anime shouldn't it be female?

That's your headcannon. Not a single trophy or anything says that. All in-game material uses "it".

Just because the Miis are create a characters doesn't mean they don't have genders. The first thing you do when you make a Mii is select their gender. You should put the Brawler and Swordfighter in default male and the Gunner in Female default. What makes you think Kirby is genderless?

One more

Attached: 1558385132524.png (980x861, 1.04M)

In Japan they don't user "he" for Kirby. They only use it in English because we have no real gender neutral term.

Attached: bait.png (1045x2398, 42K)

Because ultimately there aren't many female Nintendo characters left that are actually worth adding.

Dixie Kong is basically the last one I can think off that actually deserves it. Basically every other option is either forgotten, not important enough or just don't really work or "dance" as a fighter.

With third parties, I do think there's a little more leeway, with characters like Jill Valentine.

Exactly and without something physical to clue me in like Pikachu's tail I got nothing so I just put them in that last category.

No it isn't. Mine is. Mr. Game & Watch is a shapeshifter with unspecified genitalia while it is an octopus. There is not reason to say which gender is the default. There's nothing indicating that Yoshi and Kirby are genderless.

>Yoshi/Kirby
Nothing in the US localization of Smash but if you know the characters from the source it is explained and in the Japanese version they specifically use gender-neutral terms.

The dub slipped up here and there with a lot of things. Also smash Jigglypuff is not confirmed to be anime Jigglypuff.

She's better than any of the ones we already have

Yeah OP made so bait and dear God this thread just ran with it

assist trophy, literal who, guest character in recent Mario game.
Woah

not following them doesn't mean they oppose social/scientific progress

I'm saying him changing forms precludes him from being being confirmed to only be male. It makes it go from excursively male to potentially exclusively male and that must be accounted for. Gender neutral does not mean sexless. Kirby and Yoshi could have no sex, be both sexes or are one of the sexes. Not genderless

This, no more watercolor sword wolves

Because Villager, Robin, Wii Fit and Corrin have a 50-50 split. Bowser Jr has like a 85-15 percent or something.

Nintendo snaps its fingers, and 8 characters of the male tier are transformed into female characters across time and space. Reality and history will go on as though they've always been female.
Who do Yea Forums pick to turn into girls?
Hard mode: Provide logical reasoning for your picks.
Nightmare mode: Said logical reasoning can't have anything to do with wanting them to be sexy girls.

Link, Pit, Dark Pit, Simon, Ken, Marth, Young Link and Toon Link.
Marth, Link, Simon, Ken and Pit already got girl haircuts and the other three because clone/reincarnations would probably be the same gender.

So in your funhouse mirror world any character with shapeshifting powers has to be classified as no gender/unspecified? So Mystique from X-Men is not a woman to you, she would be unspecified? I'm sorry, that shit makes no sense.

Kirby is genderless barring the non-canonical manga and western localizations using "he" for lack of a better alternative.
kirby.fandom.com/wiki/Kirby#Age_and_Gender

Yoshi's gender is such a clusterfuck but it's more commonly genderless (in Smash as well as mainline Mario/Yoshi games) pre-localization (much like Kirby) so I went with that.
