(1) Bub (The Green dragon) from Bubble Bobble
He could trap enemies in bubbles and burst the bubbles for hits - he could also use his tail and the spikes on his back etc.
In the Bubble Bobble game there are lots of power ups so these could form part of his moves. He could even bounce on bubble without bursting them (like in the original game by holding down the jump button) to get to higher areas on screen
(2) Viewtiful Joe - would be a great fighter with loads of his moves from the original game
(3) Haggar from Final Fight - a great (and strong) character. He’s wrestling based so could be a good opponent for Incineroar
(4) One of the Killer Instinct Characters - when it came out it had Ultra 64 in the backgrounds in-game, and KI Gold was available on N64 - I think someone like Fulgore would be a great addition to the roster
(5) Lily from Blossom Tales - a great little Zelda homage and Lily has some cool moves. Would also add to the female cast which is actually quite low in comparison to male

Like battling in Gyms and Raids, your Pokémon has access to their Fast and Charged Attacks, and Trainer Battles even introduce the ability to unlock an additional Charged Attack for use. Trainers will also have a limited-use Protect Shield to deploy in order to protect their Pokémon from critical harm, but timing will be key.email from Connor — Hey Bill,
Regarding my top requested fighters for DLC for Super Smash Bros, I've decided to make two lists. One with the 5 characters who I think realistically have a shot at becoming dlc newcomers and another with the 5 characters which ultimately have a 100% (Sarcasm) chance of being added. Nevertheless, as you said earlier it's still fun to try and guess which characters will be added, so here's my totally 100% accurate predictions.
Realistic Top 5:
1. Steve from Minecraft. Microsoft and Nintendo have been pretty close this past year so I´m expecting a Microsoft rep to be joining the roster. I could see his moveset being largely based on use of swords and bows and his final smash could
