Crono only got around 80% on Missile.

lol still this Brawl picture nonsense. Newsflash: Red wouldn't suddenly have 60% here if he was "burdened" with his Brawl pic. You'd think the difference was as extreme as Solid S*** or something. I've never seen a character go from hand-drawn 2D to computer-generated 3D and look as unchanged as Red has.

Sissel is the main character of the game while Missile is just a side character.

Agreeing with this 100%. They only help characters who get most of their power from brawl. Like Ness and Captain Falcon.

There's some nostalgia factor that comes with the art style when it comes to Red. But to say Brawl pics would be "sabotage" for literally anyone else is insane.

Bee tee dubs, if you're around creativename, is there any chance you can have the poll updates on your site for the matches with altered final totals (such as Tifa's match) get one final update to reflect the actual final totals? I don't know how reasonable that request is without knowing how you've programmed those pages, but I tend to just look at your site when I want to quickly find the results of a previous match, and I sometimes forget when your site doesn't actually have the correct final numbers. So it'd be helpful to me, if no one else.

Red's Brawl design is of a redesign that doesn't look at all like the original Red, and also makes him out to be "The Pokemon Trainer from Brawl" instead of "The Pokemon Trainer from POKEMON RED". There's a big difference.

It does have the correct final numbers. It just doesn't have them in the right place, because it's sorted by vote totals instead of by time.

With how Sakurai has been handling Smash 4 so far, if Pokemon Trainer makes it back in I wouldn't be surprised if he looks even more like the classic Red artwork

I'm just assuming that basically anyone who would ever vote for Red is really voting for their R/B/Y (and possibly G/S/C) memories.

Pictures from a 3D, non-portable, non-nostalgic game are not going to help with that. Brawl Red makes me remember using the Pokemon Trainer in Brawl, not playing Pokemon. that's no way to get casual support.

Oh, I see it now.

In that case I guess it'd be cool if it auto-sorted by time instead, but that seems like a less reasonable request, and more nitpicky, so don't mind me.

Brawl pics might not have any effect on Red, but I'd wager that they do. A character like Red is going to need to rely on nostalgic feelings, and a Brawl pic evokes absolutely zero of that to me.

And soon Cecil vs Pit will be upon us. I've been dreading this one.

Why couldn't it be a night match so I can just pick Cecil in peace

Yeah, I'm not really buying that it matters to any real degree here. Maybe a little, but Red is over 70% in this regardless of Brawl or RBY picture.

I don't think Brawl Red would be over 70% here. It's very close to being an entirely different character.

No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!

I still can't get over that third update. I mean, it came only four minutes after the previous one instead of five, and it's a lead of exactly 1000 votes. We have an exact amount of time it took to extend the lead to quadruple digits.

...Which is more than the number of votes Chester got all match. Only 16 minutes in and Red's leading by 1.08 Chesters.

I legit think Red can still be stronger than this if round 3 is still the sprite round.

Because they may think it's a different character or simply not recognize the picture as being Red from Pokemon RBY.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5213

It could just be that Sissel and Corvo are like sub-Chester or something, but I wouldn't pick Ocelot to break 70% here.

There could always be other reasons. But the picture thing makes logical sense even to me, and I'm like one of the biggest arguers against pictures being huge difference makers.

It's not so much that Red's Brawl pics are "bad," it's that the majority of voters don't know that:

1. The official name of the MC in Red/Blue is Red
2. The Pokemon Trainer in Brawl is supposed to be Red (nowhere in Brawl does it say that he's Red from RBY, it even says he originated in FR/LG).

I've argued this for the longest time, and this result proves it unless you want to believe Red and Blue boosted like crazy for no reason between the 2010 contest and Rivals.

Give Red a Brawl pic next round and I don't think he underperforms that much. The majority of voters probably will remember who he is.

I don't really see the big deal here! It might not mean anything, but it very well could mean something, and I don't like the risk. Our voters have abandoned/supported characters for weirder reasons.
---

Yeah, Brawl Red sucks.

So what are we suggesting here? Does he best MMX with a face pic of this artwork instead? Over 45%? What? This seems crazy over a pic that is near identical.
