Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week this forum hosts a tussle between two characters from the Super Smash Bros. series! The winner gets, well, nothing. It's more of a poll but functionally, this is a popularity contest. You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in an competition between the two combatants that round. No, you don't have to vote for the character with strength & power, just vote if you are a total fanboy of the character. So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you can remain anonymous! If you have any requests for future fights, please feel free to leave a message here.

The Rules

  1. When voting, you can give a brief comment on why you voted the way you did, or you can just leave your signature.
  2. You can only vote once. Any multiple votes will be removed.
  3. Put a # before your vote to facilitate the vote counting.
  4. Type ~~~~ after your vote to sign it, whether you are logged in or not. Using the wrong number of "~"s counts as not signing - your signature must have both your signature itself and the time.
  5. There is a line in each section consisting of "DO NOT ADD COMMENTS OR EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE". You are to do so; do not just type your vote at the bottom of the editing window. Not following this rule results in your vote being displayed in the wrong place.
  6. Put your vote below other votes; that is, so the votes are in chronological order.
  7. Any comments about the fight should be left in the comment section. It is recommended that you do not post argumentative, accusative, or any sort of comment with the intention of starting an argument with someone on the opposing side. The Smash Arena is a popularity contest, there's no need to argue with the other side on why your choice is superior, or why they are wrong with their reasoning for picking their choice.
  8. You may only vote in the current fight; all previous fights are closed.
  9. Do not leave a space between your comment and the ones above it (and/or below it).
  10. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.

If your vote is not added correctly - that is, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have one hour to fix it. After this time, it may be moved by any user to the Half-Votes section (adding the unsigned template if necessary), and it will count as half a vote. Attempting to move your vote out of the Half-Votes section may result in it being worth zero at an operator's discretion. In addition, if your votes-to-rulebreaks ratio climbs too high, your votes may count for zero until the ratio drops to an acceptable level.

Intentional half-votes undermine the intent of the half-vote system as a way to punish voters for voting incorrectly. It is legal to want a vote to be worth half, but it is very heavily discouraged, and you must state in your vote you want it to be worth half.

File:Super Sonic.png
A pair of fast-moving Final Smashes with slight control difficulty and significant damage on impact. Which one is more popular?

Votes for Volt Tackle

  1. Pikachu > sonic. And Super Sonic is way to overpowered. Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 08:34, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. Despite Super Sonic being easier to control, Volt Tackle has cooler effects, IMO. Squishyfrog Chat 08:42, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. I just dislike Sonic. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 11:12, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. PIKA-CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk Untitled-1 copy.gif 12:20, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. Pikachu is liek totes awesome. :P 76.16.238.29 12:31, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Uh oh... ZAP!! Ow! Hey! ZAP!! Ouch! No, wait, wait— ZAP!! Aahh! No, please! ZAP!! ZAP!! ZAP!! CriticalHit60 (talk) 14:49, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. I still hate third-party characters. Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 15:29, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. I just like it more.--2.28.105.139 17:30, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. Just because I'm sick of people who want Smash to turn into some sort of Sonic fighter with Nintendo characters thrown in.--Jelloratbob (talk) 19:02, 21 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. I'm sorry, but pikachu will pwn sonic anyday of the week, month, year, decade, and so on. Plus, Super Sonic has almost no control over what he does, Volt Tackle can be controlled for ultra awesome smashing & KOing fun. So, long story short: Pikachu > Sonic :> 67.161.169.125 23:37, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Super Sonic

  1. I NEVER with the capital N, be able control volt tackle Lucas-IV- Paper TosserLucas kirby.jpg 08:26, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. I'LL SHOW YOU!!!--Wolf rulez! WolfHeadSSBB.png YESH! WOLF! 08:32, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. The fact that Pikachu will nearly die in the Pokemon games if it used Volt Tackle makes it seem pathetic. In addition, inability to control Volt Tackle among anyone who does not use Pikachu is very common. MegaTron1XD:p 08:59, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. Super Sonic is easier to control in my opinion and has higher knockback. 110.174.90.69 09:11, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. Super sonic speeds that's what 68.197.115.28 10:04, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Just Because DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs) DoctorPain99.png 10:12, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. Sonic > Pikachu. Also, it's easier to control, doesn't give players seizures, begins with an awesome line "Now I'll show you!", hails from Sonic 2 (a great game), is less annoying, reminiscent of the Super Saiyans, has higher damage output, and in general is a better Final Smash. Hawk 21 (talk) 10:58, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. Cuz in the games, you always turn into him during the final boss and own. -Ivy73002MS.png 11:10, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. Significantly easier to control. Nuff said. Zeldasmash (talk) 11:13, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. It pretty much destroys anyone! --66.222.171.225 14:46, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  11. Sonic is the best character in the game AND Super Sonic is awesomesauce on a stick! He destroys Volt Tackle! 68.174.11.29 16:35, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  12. Better control, more KO potential, more effectiveness...if you're not down with that, I've only got two words for ya: you're finished! Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 18:36, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  13. 3rd vote. ..... Right on. File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 18:38, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  14. It's one of the best Final Smashes in the game. Forbidden7 (talk) 19:04, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  15. The guy's pretty much Shin Akuma in this form for crying out loud. HavocReaper 19:43, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  16. They're actually both pretty good Final Smashes but..."Now I'll show you!". --217.43.54.168 04:57, 19 June 2011 (EDT)
  17. I COULD GO SUPER SONIC! AND JUST BEYOND IT! --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 18:17, 19 June 2011 (EDT)
  18. I love Pikachu, love his Volt Tackle, but I play more Sonic than I do Pokemon(or maybe that's just me), so I'm rooting for Super Sonic this time. --2.98.162.144 04:02, 20 June 2011 (EDT)
  19. Pikachu is hard to control, but Super Sonic can run free and do damage. MagicGallade (talk) 19:52, 20 June 2011 (EDT)User:MagicGallade
  20. Volt Tackle is too hard to control, I don't have problems with Super Sonic. 98.214.56.196 14:21, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
  21. epic--kyle.b talk KirbyHeadSSBB.png(contributions) 16:30, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
  22. cpu's using Super Sonic can actually KO me. That's all that needs to be said. 25T16 (talk) 23:35, 23 June 2011 (EDT)
  23. Easier to control, and does has more chance of KOing. Mastersword (talk) 05:24, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Half Votes

  1. I slightly dislike it, but it's all too powerful and can KO someone faster than Volt Tackle. A half vote for it, please. --24.11.24.139 12:07, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. theres NO WAY to escape this!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by Imaleaf1080 (talk • contribs) Time of Edit)
  3. I like Sonic more than Pikachu and I KO more with this than Volt Tackle.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.104.101 15:25, 20 June 2011 (EDT)

Lol Hawk21, you really pointed out my mistake.--Wolf rulez! WolfHeadSSBB.png YESH! WOLF! 11:13, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

How do you make a half-vote section? --24.11.24.139 12:10, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

Type this: ==Half Votes== (your reason + signature)--Wolf rulez! WolfHeadSSBB.png YESH! WOLF! 12:11, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
It's ===Half Votes=== I did it for you to avoid issues. DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs) DoctorPain99.png 12:14, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
K. --24.11.24.139 12:24, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

I hate both of them. Seeing Volt Tackle do so much damage in one go makes me cringe, while Super Sonic is really powerful and lasts a while. I would have preferred Volt Tackle if it worked anime-style with effects like Marth's Critical Hit, and have Pulseman as an Assist Trophy instead. Seriously, I'd rather just be struck be a Critical Hit and have done with it, rather than seeing Volt Tackle going all cheap on everyone. ToastUltimatum (talk) 14:35, 22 June 2011 (EDT)

And who would those people happen to be, Jelloratbob? --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 11:26, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

Actually it's quite the opposite Jello. Unless you mean people who only like Brawl because Sonic is in it, because that's right >_>.Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 12:34, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

My comment is on top of all of the sonic votes, and I want to vote for pikachu. Can someone figure out what's wrong? 67.161.169.125 23:41, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

Kirby

25.5 to 11
File:DDD.jpg
The two primary participants of the Dreamstar Universe. They're both fat big-mouthed omnivores with a talent for sucking and puffing, and they were both highly pivotal during the Subspace Emissary - which big belly is the victor?

Votes for Kirby

  2. Beware the power of pink and cute! --66.222.171.225 18:45, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

  7. I'm gonna get me, Kirby. Miles (talk) 23:25, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

  9. I barely know D3, plus Kirby is awesome. Doomolish (talk) 03:54, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. I think I'm gonna vote for Dede- Oh no, Kirby! Don't look at me like that! Not that "sad puppy eyes"! I can't resist it! Okay, okay, I'll vote for you! 206.53.152.103 05:05, 11 June 2011 (EDT)

  15. The down-throw rocks! I cannot resist throwing out Warlock Punch (rather freely, I might add) with this sphere of loveliness. Move over, DDD; Kirby's coming to town, and that's the bottom line, 'cause Dark Mai said so! Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 12:16, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  16. Kirby is AWESOME and King Dedede STINKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Vote Kirby!--2.26.60.131 17:37, 11 June 2011 (EDT)

  19. Kirby is better. Cw11cw (talk) 09:55, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
  20. While both are useful are reliable characters, Kirby's aerial hammer is so awesome that i just have to vote for him. Squishyfrog Chat 11:32, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
  21. If he inhales Wolf, he looks like Wolf, and Wolf is awesome.--Wolf rulez! Wolfen.png Look! Wolfen! 05:54, 13 June 2011 (EDT)
  22. Because it is impossible to argue with the reasoning in the vote above me. Fuddlebob (talk) 03:50, 14 June 2011 (EDT)

Votes for King Dedede

  1. A fat penguin with an IQ over 300. How could you get more awesome? --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 18:30, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. Heh heh. The comically obese penguin gets my vote yet again because he has, uh, a bigger hammer. Yeh. And he's less annoying. Hawk 21 (talk) 19:10, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. Dedede is a penguin. Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 21:17, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. http://allisbrawl.com/forum/topic.aspx?id=176686 Doc King (talk) 21:35, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. I like both characters, but I'm going to pick Dedede. A reliable main of mine for years now, with a back aerial that is completely superior to Kirby's great back aerial. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 03:41, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Very hard decision but I'm going for triple D. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 07:57, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. King Dedede is one of my best characters in SSBB. Kirby is just the character I use in SSB64 when Captain Falcon is still locked. DoctorPain99 DoctorPain99.png 09:39, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. Ruht ruht68.197.115.28 10:25, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. I like using his final smash in sticker factories. Dedede is the king!71.136.247.13 15:55, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. King Dedede is stronger, has a big hammer, and can be shortened to King DDD, K Dedede, King D, DDD, D3, KDDD or KD. Mastersword (talk) 05:38, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
  11. Dedede has a bigger hammer. 68.174.11.29 16:54, 15 June 2011 (EDT)

Comments

@Ivy73 - Cannibalism much? --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 20:30, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

@People who do not get my vote: Kirby can swallow characters. If he chooses to, he will be able to get a character's clothing and his normal special move. So, that would be copying the original. --24.11.24.139 06:13, 11 June 2011 (EDT)

Finally! This is what I call an exciting fight. The last two have been kind of boring. CriticalHit60 (talk) 18:32, 17 June 2011 (EDT)
