Come to think about it, they're very similar to Pokeballs. Should We mention that?-- Aipom --

Two things. 1:We should probably mention that it's like Pokeball with wider variety. 2:Should we have a template of Assist Trophies (possibly Poke Balls, too).--Toa Waluigi 09:08, 2 July 2007 (EDT)

We don't have an article on every Pokemon, yet we're getting an article for every Assist Trophy character... I guess the Assist Trophy template is plausible. -- Booster

I think the Assist Trophy articles should just be merged into a single article, I mean, they really don't seem any different then Pokemon. -- Sir Grodus

True that, merging.Knife (talk) 18:19, 14 July 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, merging sounds like a good idea My Bloody Valentine

If all the Assist Trophy articles are merged here, maybe we could make some sort of table, having they're names, effects, an image and, if possible, rarerity; something similar to this Bowser#Alter-egos, but more expansive. -- Sir Grodus

Or maybe more like the Pokemon article.Knife (talk) 21:51, 14 July 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, that's a reasonable idea: Wait for the game to come out! -Dodo

Yeah, that could be done. -- Sir Grodus

Both Samurai Goro and Dr. Wright have trophies in Melee. Should we post their info somewhere here? Dodo

I vote for Aisst Trophies and all Pokemon getting their own articles. THAT IS MY OPINION KILL ME IF YOU WANT Paper Jorge, the one who gives paper cuts.

I think so too, but I'm not gonna fight the majority. -Dodo

Dodo: Then again every Pokemon in Melee has a Trophy too, but we didn't list them. Maybe we should stick every Trophy description on the Trophy page.
PJ: Yeah, any reasons backing your opinion?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Knife (talk).

Well, Mr. I-don't-sign, that is my opinion. They're characters like Redead and Like Likes. I don't see why not have aritlces for them. Paper Jorge, the one who gives paper cuts.

We are not Smashwiki. So, we do not need seperate articles for the Assist Trophy or Pokemon. Additionally, that's what I suggested, but, putting Trophy Bios on the actual Trophy page would be messy. My Bloody Valentine

I think they should be seperate, they each do a unique effect. ^Plumber

So do Pokemon. -- Sir Grodus

Well then, here's an idea for the trophies; Make a seperate page for the descriptions. -Ye Olde Dodo

That sounds good. My Bloody Valentine

Let's wait and see how many Assist Trophies are actually used. There will most likely be more Assist Trophies than Pokemon, but let's leave them all on one page for now. We can't give too much focus to the crossover series, especially one that isn't released yet.Knife (talk) 00:21, 16 July 2007 (EDT)

Oh, come on. I don't want to unmerge later. And I was going to give each Pokemon its own article. ^Plumber

OK, here is my opinion. Do not make seperate articles. It won't work, cos' most of the info will not be from the Marioverse. I also completely agree with Knife. My Bloody Valentine

We should have a poll on this issue. And the decision can be changed when the game has been released. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 06:47, 16 July 2007 (EDT)

Good idea. My Bloody Valentine

Poll

NOTE: The result of this poll is temporary. A new decision can be made when the game has been released. This poll is Closed.

5. Caith_Sith - This is too old, but well... Assist Trophy are characters, or at least "special moves", and affect the gameplay, so in my opinion, that characters needs an separate article... for example, all Final Smash moves are in one article and separate... i think this is the right way... (yeah, my english isn't good, sorry xD).--Caith Sith 21:22, 11 October 2007 (EDT)

Yes, we need to decide now. It can't be that action for both solutions is taken. There has to be a unique policy. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 11:13, 16 July 2007 (EDT)

I feel that they should get seperate articles. (Yes, I signed with my full username.) -Dodo

I think that both the Assist Trophies and Pokemon are worthy of seperate articles. This isn't Wikipedia, which has a super strict "importance policy". Sure, we have an importance policy of our own, but if you read it go down to the "Penalties" section, you'll find, in bold text: Also, there are no article limits for any area of focus. - Booster.

Then maybe you should vote...Knife (talk) 17:20, 16 July 2007 (EDT)

Uh, lemme get this straight. The opposed won, and we still seperated the articles? -DODO

OK, Now THAT was stupid. C'MON, opposed won, and you people STILL made the articles? I am bringing this to Main Page, where we will get the real Results. My Bloody Valentine

Hey, don't blame me. I just spectated.

dodo.

Wha? Oh, sorry, I wasn't pointing that at you, I was pointing that quote to whoever made those articles. Sorry if you felt I was yelling at you. My Bloody Valentine

Can be this "poll" re-open?

Hi?

Weird Glitch

Why won't {{SSB Item Infobox}} work on this page?Knife (talk) 00:39, 21 July 2007 (EDT)

Next time you copy a template, make sure you know how it works. The default width was 220px, but the max image width is 179px, so you have to define {{{width}}} → 179 to get the right-sized image. Wa _T^C_@^Y 00:45, 21 July 2007 (EDT)

KirbySeries

should we add Category:Kirby Series to this page, since it has Knuckle Joe on it? Or make Knuckle Joe have the category or something. Max2 (talk)

Put it on the Knuckle Joe page, not the Assist Trophy page. My Bloody Valentine

Devil

They cut out the Tamagon trophy from Devil World in Melee because of Satanism in the versions outside Japan, now they're putting that Devil in. Does that mean rules aren't that strict nowadays, or will this push the ESRB rating? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 04:06, 14 August 2007 (EDT)

Oh dear goodness, you're right. This is likely to be higher rated. Or, they just couldn't care anymore :P We'll soon see. My Bloody Valentine

They might take him out of the American version. Or they'll rate the game "M". Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back! I see nothing wrong with an M rating...

I don't think one demon will make the whole game rated M.Knife (talk) 14:35, 14 August 2007 (EDT) Although Zero Suit Samus might.

IGN Movie Assist

There's some assist in the IGN video on the Castle Siege stage I can't identify. It's sort of pink. Does anyone know? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 10:54, 12 October 2007 (EDT)

Is Jill, from Drill Dozer. Is now on the list. Huh... i still thinking that the Assist Trophy characters needs separate articles :(--Caith Sith 10:57, 12 October 2007 (EDT)

Metroid

Gamespot's preview mentions a Metroid appearing as an assist. Should it be listed? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 17:11, 13 October 2007 (EDT)
