Would have been interesting if the developers let Simon\Richter use ↓B to throw otherwise unwanted items, like the toy golden hammer, or the headless hammer.

[@pandawholikesSetItOff]

that would be cool

@@Iamverykarpy is partly right. You can mash grab if you're hit and tumbling in the air to release the hammer.

I think Ridley's down taunt is my favourite too tbh. Everyone else's is an actual taunt or a cool trick and Ridley is just like "I am bigger than you, run"

[@jennytulls6369]

"You won't like me when I adjust my posture."

[@mextroid]

always had the feeling that is a reference to iori taunt but maybe is just me, the taunt: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmWUnaGaoJ6DkLs

[@mr.gameandwatch8256]

Obviously Sakurai's favourite taunt is Ridley Down Taunt. Since it's Funny Ridley LOL

[@vivianlessthan3]

@Lulin it's a reference to one of the top Shared Content video in ultimate. It's just a one second clip of Ridley's down taunt

The Mii's voices reuse a lot of the Japanese actors. You were correct about Ness and Kirby (who have the same voices in both English and Japanese). Other voices include Fox, Simon, Richter, etc.

[@pixlyJolt]

Exactly this

[@Discoh]

Oh, that's cool! I didn't know about that.

[@MeesterTweester]

I love that one of the Mii's VAs was also in my favorite anime 30 years prior (Ranma 1/2)

[@aedaniammx7559]

For the Miis’ eyes being yellow, a similar thing happens in Miitopia, though it’s more obvious because of the greater customization, especially in Switch. Many expressions straight-up replace the eyes, like the “evil” status where their eyes turn black with red irises, and in switch it deleted all the makeup on that Mii’s eyes until the go back to normal. It’s just how Mii eyes work.

[@CrimsoniteSP]

I believe there are a few glitched sleep voice lines that get cut before the loop, but I also remember there being a way to actually get the full line. I can't remember if you have to sleep them in the air or being small/big, witch timed or slowed, combination of the three, but I strongly remember this used to be a medium sized topic like a year or two ago.

[@al_eggs]

it was in a Useless Smash Facts

[@minecraftcreeper777]

@Zeta if you let it loop he actually says the entire line

[@cheatsbakessalts9233]

It’s the first fact in Useless Smash Facts #2

[@jess41269]

You mentioned how type beauty sounded like Ness. That's because Ness's voice actor did that voice. Zelda/Sheik's voice actor did active, and Pit/Dark Pit's Japanese voice actor did girl, and it's funny you say that sounded like Kirby because that voice actor also is the voice for Knuckle Joe in Japanese

[@bukenator0788]

If the miis can't be selected by clicking "random" (which I'm pretty sure they can't), that would explain why they aren't in smashdown, since if you only had miis left and clicked random the game would probably not do anything except play the little clicking animation and sound effect, not let you start the match, bug out, or crash.

[@BigLord]

On that note, and yes you're correct about it, why *aren't* the Miis available by selecting "random"?

[@Robbie_Haruna]

@@BigLord Probably because you can make a shitload of Miis and that would heavily skew the odds of the random button.

[@BigLord]

@@Robbie_Haruna Just treat the different Miis like the game treats characters' skins. First the game selects a type of mii (a character), and then it selects a specific mii (a character's skin). This should work perfectly fine, but I assume they didn't want to bother with creating such a system, and so Miis can't show up in Random (nor in Smashdown). Ugh

[@Robbie_Haruna]

@@BigLord Eh I mean honestly the Miis not being in either of those is just a whatever thing. They really should have gotten their own classic routes though. Maybe they just didn't have any good theme ideas for them since they're just blank slate characters. Maybe they could have versed other self insert protagonists. Villager, Pokémon Trainer, Ness+Lucas, Robin+Corrin and then all three Links.

[@lucaslourenco8918]

@@BigLord I'd say because you can create visually identical Miis and, without proper identification, you'd be lost when starting a match without knowing their moveset

[@Regal_Goose]

the item grab fact's kinda peculiar. It's neat getting info on simon/richer, they're some of my favorites.

[@3of6mylove]

@@calebleach7988 Right? They may actually be a psychopath.

[@329link]

I wonder how stupid holy water would get if it functioned more like link's bombs, where you pull it out and treat it like a regular item.

[@Oretal]

12:14 I bet they just asked some of the fighters' voice actors to record some mii voices. Makiko Ōmoto is the VA for both Ness, Kirby, and some other characters in smash so they probably just asked her to do a bit more. I don't know who the other VAs for the other voices could be.

[@MosesX-Labs]

I actually remember Sakurai saying Ridley down taunt was his favorite of those taunts. He said something like, you can see how tall Ridley actually is when he stands.

[@The8BitLeafeon]

16:15 What I think is actually happening is that the game is lowering the base damage of the projectile, since they must have observed that otherwise it would increase the damage exponentially kinda like how olimar was ridiculously strong with spirits in version 1.0. I don't know the real reason but that seems most likely to me.

[@SonicTheCutehog]

Another obscure fact is that if you going into the Tips menu and select Fighter tips for the Mii Fighters while having Echo Fighters stacked, the "Mii" announcer voice clip from Smash 4 will play. This is the only time in Ultimate that this voice clip plays as they elected for the unused Mii Type voice clips from Smash 4 for Ultimate.

[@LilyLambda]

I'm pretty sure I know why the Belmont's holy water counts as an item grab. Peach and Daisy's down specials both count as an item grab, but only for Saturn Head and Bob-omb, not turnip. This is probably because the part of the code for Saturn Head and Bob-omb use the function "ItemModule::have_item([itemname])," which puts an item into the character's hand. Turnip doesn't use this, rather it just uses "ArticleModule::generate_article(FIGHTER_[character]_GENERATE_ARTICLE_DAIKON)," which then uses some magic to get it into her hand without it counting as a grab. The Belmont's holy water, however, activates a flag, which is handled somewhere else in common code, and I'd guess that it uses "ItemModule::have_item([itemname])," and then another function to force it out of their hand a few frames later. Also, here's where I usually view move code: rubendal.github.io/ssbu/#/Character

[@skeletorthebest7204]

I don’t think bugs get covered on this series, but Mii Gunner Bomb Drop is interesting because if a projectile *visually spawns* before it does (e.g. a charging Charge Shot) and then hits it, Bomb Drop will not react to getting hit, instead of getting hit back and exploding. The exception to this is if a projectile is associated with an entity, in which case it’ll always explode.

[@Discoh]

11:20 actually, I don't think PKBeats is a very common name - I've only heard of one so far.

[@Poisonspidermanfr]

7:32 Richters holy water does bad damage when thrown back at him is because the spirit has defence so that’s why it’s the same as Simon

[@kirbyofthestarsfan]

4:45 A few of Ridley's animations are directly mimicking Charizard, mainly some item ones as the Item Dash Attack will have Ridley twirl while using the sword, same with Zard, so the latter is more likely I wish they brought back gliding (but nerfed like Steve's) tho, Zard sucks so much to play as currently

[@arm_and_toe]

Gotta say, I love that the end of Incineroar's part has him literally crushed to death

[@fis001r]

8:09 I saw this on Pjiggles channel. You can actually hear some part of Richter saying Dracular if he is sleeping while being airborne

[@Slimeade]

Decided to do some testing with the Simon/Richter thing and discovered something odd that may actually have some weird use in competitive, but when it comes to characters who spawn items, like Simon/Richter, Peach/Daisy, Snake, Diddy Kong and the Links, all but Snake and Diddy cannot use their item spawning moves if they're holding the Holy Water. To add to this weirdness, Snake and Diddy actually drop the Holy Water if they use Grenade and Banana Peel, with Snake dropping the Holy Water at his feet, and Diddy, strangely, throwing the Holy Water forwards even if it doesn't match his Down B animation. Extra shout outs to Peach for having a somewhat odd animation when crouching with an item, it's not noticeable at full speed, but in slow modes, if she crouches while holding any item, her arm will animate independantly from her, moving into place a few frames after her crouch animation, it's really robotic looking too

[@noman777]

Mii Swordfighter and Gunner have canon names associated with them in official materials from smash 4. Swordfighter is “Ken”, and Gunner is “Sophia”.

[@dippin4dots]

Fun Fact about Isabelle, for those who want more new and unheard info: Her name is Isabelle because she Is a bell! Wow, incredible!

[@D_YellowMadness]

In Japan, her name is Shizue (sorta pronounced shee-zoo-ey) because she's a shih tzu.

[@castform7]

It kinda sucks how the Miis usually get the short end of the stick in some game modes. At least they get to be played online now unlike in Smash 4.

[@poke4074]

random fact, charging ink in a healing field will prevent you from healing in it while doing so

[@Skypatroller_BenCD]

Honestly if Sakurai makes a new update for Smash i HOPE that we can play the Miis in the classic mode

[@rileyzanatta7664]

If you hit richter with snooze while he’s in midair, he’ll say the full voice line

[@Oretal]

Japanese Richter is "Honk Shoo" type of person

[@ogfuzzy8631]

I think the default miis are supposed to look like mario link and samus. Brawler has a red outfit, swordfighter has a blue shirt and blonde hair, and gunners outfit vaguely resembles samus armor

[@Liggliluff]

But the sword fighter was introduced in Smash Bros for 3DS. He had a blue shirt, and slightly browner hair. The game was released late 2014. Blue Link is from Breath of the Wild? Was he first seen with it at E3 2014? So it could still be based on that.

[@Dad_420]

If you put the blue Belmont to sleep in the air you can ALMOST hear the full voice line

[@zeromontalvan1514]

Meta knight's eyes change its colors depending of his emotions in kirby right back at ya! , with red being the "angry" ones and that explains why galacta knight has them in that color all the time

[@expoogaloo]

Yeah yeah good vid and all that but that demo clip at 14:50 was INSANE

[@SuperSaga2191]

If richter falls asleep in the air, the second loop will say the full "dracula"

[@Chaud31423]

The thing with King K. Rool and the boxing glove is not unique to him. Any character who adds something to their model gets it kept. Trying grabbing Piranha Plant while he's charging his Forward Smash for instance.

[@MothFable]

10:21 he sounds like an elite from halo, and I am here for it

[@someguywithatophat7599]

11:21 yeah, there was this really weird huge spike of PKBeats as a baby name huh-

[@LunaHowBoutPoona]

There’s actually one more game mode that the miis can’t be used in. They, as well as final smashes, cannot be used in the VR mode of smash bros with the Labo VR Toy-con. It’s probably not in the wiki because no one ever plays in that mode.

[@homerosz97]

I know it's an old video, the series ended, stuff like that, but I have to mention this because I good giggle out of it. One of Simon's victory animations is him jumping and whipping at the same time. This is a reference to Castlevania 1 on the NES. In that game once you defeat a boss, a red orb appears. Once you touch it you're unable to move with the D-pad but you can whip and jump. As a lifelong Castlevania fan I really got a kick out of that one!

[@Pslamist]

3:45 - Trivia for YOU: The plural for "Iris" is "Irides"! Pretty fun tidbit.

[@tardissins7512]

The holy water grab is a thing, and you can mod the game to not throw it. You still play out the whole animation, but all the code does is take the item you’ve just grabbed and then do a unique throw animation

[@foamie467]

I have one fact that you might know. If you go and kill Joker and get a screen K.O, his mask can go on or off, depending on the timing.

[@271danny]

i have to say i really haven‘t played smash since.. 2019? and yet I really really enjoy your videos no matter what exactly they are about. I just love the way you present trivia :)

[@jpag_grey497]

You can hear Ricter say "Dracula" when he gets put to sleep while mid-air, but funnily enough, it's still glitched and will say, "*snores* Dra-" then loops

[@Darklandion]

"The weird way that holy water works" yeah, it hurts when I touch it and leaves me with a burn...

[@Maker0824]

Wait I distinctly remember someone showing of how Simon's sleeping sound was cut off for him to say "Drac-" before it looped. Was it patched to be slightly less broken rather than just fixing it out right?

[@imtheaisac3027]

DAMN that demoman sticky jumper combo is fire

[@IanZWhite00]

Richter muttering “Dracula” in his sleep is oddly cute for what would probably be a really concerning problem irl

[@sodiumfluoridel]

I guess it sort of makes sense because you can pick it up and throw it. I wonder if it works the same for robs gyro.

[@deathpie24]

like link and bombs, peach and turnups, you can't use them if you have an item already in your hands, but rob can still use the gyro even with an item in hand. i sure it will still count as using an item though

[@walnutsmcgoo]

That air-to-air sticky jumper crit was insane

[@ricodo1244]

As far as I know the Dracula sleeping sound is only activated if you fall asleep in the air

[@PieSavage]

Yes, this is correct, I tested it myself

[@TheRealLegoDocOck]

I want to inform you about this glitch that happens with olimar, Go to Great Bay and Tortimer’s Island and choose olimar then go to the ledge of the water with no pikmin then keep on pressing down special until you get 3 Blue Pikmin. I’m being serious (I have the Screenshots)

[@GunSpyEnthusiast]

pk : * shows tf2 footage for filler * me who was watching the video whilst playing tf2 : oh i know that game- wait.

[@minecraftcreeper777]

You can hear The richter dracula line if you make richter sleep while in the air

[@Flandre-Scarlet]

4:15 rip, unironically was super interested in model inconsistency facts.

[@ryanhernandez8324]

I would definitely watch a modeling inconsistencies video! That would be cool.

[@badmana5768]

If you grab someone else’s holy water and throw it, do you still have a cooldown before you can use your own holy water?

[@JoelTheParrot]

i like low-pitch type 12 mii for sans since it's the most low-key voice for a mii and knowing that the name of it is "gloomy" actually fits pretty well, too 12:27 I SEE YOU AGREE

[@nkirmath8621]

Has anyone else noticed that shulk's neutral b gets affected in the training mode's time slow? Like try running around cycling arts in fast time and see the weird dial studder in slow time.

[@scarffoxandfriends9401]

I like playing Smash Down. The mode I with I got to play more was Squad Strike, specifically the mode where you use a different character per stock. As someone who generally only play 3 to 8 player Smash, I never want to tell people to stop playing so I can just play a 1v1 in order to do Squad Strike. I don't know why it doesn't allow at least 4 players at once. Smash WiiU was able to handle it in the ending fight for Smash Tour.

[@skorie6180]

For the other modes they should've just had the generic WoL Miis be playable (dunno if people know you get the default appearances as playable if you unlock Miis in WoL whilst having not made any Miis), would've made more sense and it could've used the high quality renders used for the Miis on the CSS for the UI

[@katmanchego]

Ridley's Down Taunt is basically "I'm too big, bitch 😎"

[@rngtime6453]

The K Rool fact isnt actually an exclusive thing to him! "special" grabs also keep pirahna plants head spiky, not sure if thats on the wiki and gunna be in the next episode but yeah its odd

[@hiagogames]

I had been waiting a lot of time for the Mii facts because I love the Mii fighters and I'm in elite smash with Mii brawler I thought I would have to wait till the end of the series to see them but no, thank you alot for considering and doing the Mii facts earlier before the dlcs rather than after

[@Eliandhimself]

That sticky jumper demo kill was amazing

[@blackholetl]

I was not expecting the TF2 background footage near the end of the video. You got some pretty nutty tricks in there.

[@codytoeung5089]

The wiki does say Ness’s VA did voice mii option 6. Though ironically she also voiced Kirby but she didn’t do voice 8

[@brawlmasterjoelstudios]

12:18 Ness and Kirby DO share a voice actress

[@TheRealLegoDocOck]

Ness is Kirby 😳

[@emceechupitheundying5692]

Another interesting fact about Richter's Holy Water (Not Simon's!) is that its considered an Aura attack, similar to literally every single one of Lucario's moves.

[@theprosperchildren]

13:23 SUS

[@stupidgenius117]

8:27 richter says dracula when you make him fall alsleep in the air... for some reason....

[@theprosperchildren]

My Mii brawler uses type five high pitch

[@vvgodnexxuss]

Bro the reason the holy water from richter didnt do as much as simon throwing the exact same one that he threw is bc he didnt have a spirit and this works the same for other items such as a poke ball if somebody throws it with a spirit and somebody catches it and throws it back and not do as much damage as i should is bc it is a item not a laser or sum that comes from the character i hope people found this helpfull. :)

[@stanzacosmi]

for the ricter spirit, i believe spirits still boost some defense. for the richter sleep thing, you can put him to sleep in the air, and it will... EVENTUALLY do the proper sleep

[@kirby_says_poyo]

In smash I main a mii brawler with green eyes for pickles. Whenever I parry they turn yellow and we call it the golden pickle.

[@nkirmath8621]

5:00 I wonder if that works on Banjo egg nade and diddy bannana toss etc.

[@LunaiMusicBox]

In Kirby's 8th color alt he also doesn't do the "yellowish" glow when parrying and having the FS too :)

[@LiterallyInternet]

14:50 skill that is.

[@Zift_Ylrhavic_Resfear]

Thanks for the video :)

[@Iveno-Von-Aethervein]

my one problem with the Mii brawler specifically is that the charge up neutral B (Ultimate Uppercut) from the previous game was taken out instead of being fixed.

[@Arisadventures4937]

8:58 is the funniest thing I’ve heard today

[@ROBO_KY]

Dunno if you got this, but it used to be that Richter would say "Drac-" before looping for whatever reason instead of just snoring.

[@rexter_01]

Low Pitch Gloomy Mii's voice is the only voice that matters, and I'm glad you agree

[@SonicTheCutehog]

Ridley was definitely just built off of Charizard and the unused glide was carried over. They had already cut gliding in Smash 4.

[@mr.butterboi2275]

Put Richter asleep while in the air, Dracula will play once and after that it will keep cutting off

At this point, I wonder whether the Marketing Budget for Raid is bigger than its Development Budget was. And no shit I loved the Ad with Giant Frozen Empty Armor in this normal Job Interview. That was hilarious.

[@YounesLayachi]

Fun fact for Gaogaen in smash : he's voiced by the same actor as Mr. Satan in Dragonball Kai. And you'll see the similarities between these two characters : - wrestling - wears wrestling champion belt - is red - taunts all the time , massive show off - is a bit goofy

[@ZebsolMarin]

So does this mean Megaman chainsaw is the same as Richter and Simon holy water?

[@someguyoptimal]

Richter can say Dracula if put to sleep in the air with Snooze

[@devin5201]

Maybe the Mii Brawler is called Chris because of a famous character who is very good at punching boulders.
