One of the biggest mistakes was not having Ness in his "Fuzzy Pickles" pose for his render in ultimate

Honestly all I would of liked for more lucas rep in smash would be more mother 3 remixes, we haven’t gotten a single remix since brawl, the game lucas was introduced in. Making claus a echo fighter would of also been cool, but that would of never happened no matter what circumstances there was.

Didn't expect abuse to be brought up in a video about Ultimate, but it's not unwelcome

6:45 It's actually Delfino Plaza. It's likely meant to refrence Summers, the first time in the game where all 4 main party members are together.

i do think its awesome that both hinawa and claus are the last two spirit battles in world of light of both the light and dark paths

the love and friendship one is crazy lmao you just beating these people up for being in love

9:47 Miracle Fassad needs to be a Wario with a Jetpack and a laser gun

I would have had a fight where Zelda dies to a big metal Yoshi

The Blue Ness for his classic route is supposed to be his younger self that appears in Magicant I'm pretty sure. (Also I would've used the Masked Man palettes for the Lucas final bosses but I understand if you'd prefer not to for thematics' sake or just think it looks tacky.)

My favorite depiction of this blonde is in Project M/Project+ Playing with him just feels so POWERFUL. Offense Up rocks.

I'm not even TWO MINUTES into this and your script is hysterical. Fantastic content.

Your recreation is great, I really like using Wario as Fasaad, especially since he has already played that role in the Salsa spirit battle.

"babe wake up" "monkeyness uploaded a new video"

5:53 Since Melee, there has been talk about Ness and Sheik being unofficial rivals of some kind in the Smash series as they’re often seen fighting each other in official screenshots and manuals. Rather that has anything to do with Ness vs Sheik in classic mode is anyone’s guess. Just wanted to throw that out there.

most things about Smash Lucas don't bother me but I will never not be upset that they did not make his boss fight Ganon. The main enemy faction of Lucas's game is literally an army of pigs and Ganon still fits into the routes theme because of "sacred powers." (Ganon breaks into a place called the sacred realm to rise to power in Ocarina of Time) It was perfect!

9:18 Pink Robin Girl Will Actually Was Represented By Kumatora! But In Kumatora’s Spirit Battle, She Was Represented By Lucas In Duster Alt! Which It Matches Her Hoodie With Lucas’s Shirt & For The Pants Matches Her Hair Color & Boots! Well, I Wish It Will Happen In Classic Mode Or Get A Mii Costume Of Kumatora! 💖🙏🏻

for the first classic mode route you made the final battle should actually be kinda like the end of bowser's classic mode, you fight lucas in his claus alt, then metal lucas

Hi mister, haven't caught one of your videos in a bit but I saw this and was like ... Hey! I like Smash! Anyway, your video quality has improved about ten fold since I last seen it, and it was good before! Loved the clip of live action bowser saying "Monkey". Thanks MonkeyNess!

I came up with a conceptual Classic route for Lucas, though it involves DLC characters with how I made it. I really tried with this Lucas's Classic route is called "A Tragic Story", the route focuses on characters who have went through an extremely tragic life in their respective games, a nod to Lucas's own tragic life in Mother 3 (basically about the most traumatized characters). The opponents are: Round 1 - Samus & Zero Suit Samus in Brinstar, music is "Theme of Samus Aran, Space Warrior" (Samus appears first and upon defeating her, ZSS comes in since they're really are just the same person) Round 2 - Kazuya & Mii Brawler in his Heihachi Outfit in Mishima Dojo, music is either "Desperate Struggle" or "Aloneness" (it's a free for all since Kazuya deeply hates Heihachi for everything) Round 3 - Cloud & Sephiroth in Northern Cave, music is "Aerith's Theme" (like with Kazuya & Heihachi, it's a free for all since Cloud and Sephiroth are the hero and villain, and Sephiroth really likes to ruin Cloud so much) Round 4 - Young Link in Great Bay, music is "Termina Field" (can be the original or remix version) Round 5 - Lucina in Arena Ferox, music is "Duty (Ablaze)" Round 6 - 2 Corrins (one male and one female) in Castle Siege, music is "Lost in Thoughts All Alone (Original) Final Round - Lucas in his Claus outfit & Mii Gunner in his black color Standard Outfit wearing a Bionic Helmet wielding a Beam Sword, the Mii Gunner's specials are: Charge Blast, Flame Pillar, Arm Rocket, and Absorbing Vortex. The stage is set in omega form Norfair with the music playing "Mother 3 Love Theme". The "Claus" Lucas fights first and then upon being defeated, the Mii Gunner will appear, a reference to the Masked Man. Basically this is a nod to the final battle of Mother 3.

Ness and lucas's representation in smash has always irked me, I never got why their magic effects don't match any psi move from the games. Ness's should be red white and blue for pk rockin and Lucas's should be light blue for pk love

So much love and effort put into this, you did good.

you make me yearn so heavily for something i'll never have, that and an official 3d model for duster

It would be cool if the classic mode idea had a custom boss with a custom stage. The custom boss could have 2 phases, the first phase is the masked man and his attacks wouldnt be like any of the custom bosses, it could just be a regular fighter that you cant unlock. And the second phase would be followed up after you defeat the masked man as he reveals himslef to be claus and then a franklin badge falls that claus cant pick up and claus starts firing a pikachu thunder like attack at you until he eventually is defeated... THEN THE CREDITS ROLL HOORAY!

Personally, I would've included a 2v2 in the conceptual mode of Lucas and Daisy (Hinawa) vs Chrom and Lucina. This would be a pretty cool matchup of Mother and Son VS Father and Daughter.

you said phoned in at 6:55 but you showed a picture of ness' father, i think you should fix that mistake in my humble opinion

6:49 no, for some reason their actually in onnet

Ngl that love and friendship classic mode line is BRUTAL lmao Getting jumped over and over😭

1:07 - 1:18 This man woke up and chose violence. This man murdered Lucas the 1st chance he got.

Imagine if they'd brought back the Master Porky boss fight that was already in Brawl...

1:04 that’s messed up. Our boy has suffered enough.

My guess is that shiek is a reference to the old dude in the monkey cave that gives the trout yougurt machine

i just got this but final boss for ness. stage is final destination as giygas lair. allys 3 robs to be jeff,paula, and poo at the end of the game. enemys wario as porky and a metal ness as giygas in the devils machine and after you beat them a big orange mewtwo as giygas out of the devils machine. the mewtwo would have curry always and screw attack jump to be his attacks based on what two of them do. wario would be metal to be porky in the machine. ness would reflect all projectiles as giygas reflecting every attack in the battle. hope you enjoy!

I love how in the hole video you make it clear how depress Lucas really is 😂😂

I wish there was a duck hunt alt that had a tan brown furred dog with a black feathered duck, that would have been able to represent both the stray dogs and crows.

10:25 I feel like Lucas's Masked man alt would work better here, since the battle is against... You know... the Masked man.

3:39 erm, ackshually, their connection is that they both have dead moms and missing brothers 🤓

One thing we can all agree with is that Mother 3 is amazingly represented in World of Light and Spirit Mode in general

As a ultimate Lucas main, I see this as a absolute win

It would've been so cool if they brought Porky back as a boss

i think they should put the entirety of mother 3 as a mode in smash ultimate

I wish they added tazmily village

Bro your humor went up like the chosen fours level in the cave of the past

Lucas Is Not A Failure He Was The Greatest.

0:12 AYO YOU KNOW THAT TIME HAS BEEN PAST NOW AND WE AGREED TO BE MORE RESPECTFUL. (Nah actually this is hilarious Idc)

Jerudo valley

00:29 well you got Rayman and Spark the electric jester

The 1V1 against claus could have been against the masked man reskin instead, maybe give him a sword or gun type weapon?

0:25 Duck Hunt: “Our time has come…”

If I had my way, the porky boss fight from brawl would be the final boss, along with metal lucas (klaus alt)

still sad the porky fight didnt reappear, feels bad man

06:48 this isn't Onett but Delfino Plaza

I think Lucas should of had an alt of Kumatoras color scheme

This makes me wanna replay mother 3...

i mean, street fighter got an entire section in spirits mode so it could happen

12:50, "You must be a fan of Mother 3 AND SuperSmashBros." Me: Who isn't?

Also in terms of character designs (I am talking from as a competitive player ngl), Lucas feels like he needs a rework with his moveset. He feels like he's trying to play have his own gamestyle, but is really held back by him being just a Ness rehash since Brawl. Whereas Ness's moves all mix together really well, hence him being able to be consistent and strong character in Smash, Lucas's moves, while they are strong themselves, don't really mix well. On one hand, he feels like he's supposed to be the defensive PSI fighter, focusing on spacing & zoning with his PSI attacks given his disjoints like forward tilt, forward air, z-air, and PK Fire, but then you have moves that look like he's supposed to be a combo fighter (which is Ness's gameplay) given his down tilt, neutral air, and up air. Basically, his moves don't really connect together and feel more like a clash between 2 types of playstyles, which is the opposite of how Ness's moveset as he's both consistent and versatile (a strong all-rounder you can say). Ness's specials overall are even better than Lucas's specials as Ness's has more versatility and better reward whereas Lucas's are, while pretty good on the surface, but in actuality, are merely specialized and one note (yes including PK Flash, you can do a lot more with PK Flash than with PK Freeze. You'd be surprised by how useful PK Flash is.) Again, Lucas really needs a rework

I too have finished chicken little on gameboy. only real ones know how rough the driving levels were

*Lucas is a slept on smash character doe he's good in ultimate*

8:04 calling me out 😭

The Miis represent self love

Flint isn’t an abusive dad. This has been debunked by many people. Tanetane islands depiction of him is 1. A hallucination and 2. A result of a young Lucas seeing his dad hit rock bottom going around attacking people because he just lost his wife and he also feels his own guilt for his brother going missing the day after his mom dies. Itoi’s vision here was his biggest fear of family turning its back on you and that’s what TT island represents

Make more vids like this

They should add Gyigas/Giegue to Smash Bros as tons of other villains exist he can normally be giegue and he turns into giygas should be his special but as we all know giygas is to dark for smash bros but maybe giegue could work but I doubt it.

I think the real tragedy is that the only new Mother series remixes are two (In my opinion) inferior remixes of songs that already have smash remixes (And to rub salt in the wound neither of those remixes are from Mother 3). All three games have amazing soundtracks and I wish that was a little better represented.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have the final battle in the first suggested Classic Mode Route be against Lucas with the Masked Man alt?

6:46, That's not Onett, that's Delfino Plaza-

What did you just call me

3:55 I can tell you're a Palutena fanboy. Dropped.

"And it's not like any completionists or anything would have to play it anyway, there's no achievement for completing every character's classic mode" I don't think you understand what a completionist does

You failed the bonus game.

I really dislike that they used master hand for the bosses, they should have added back porky.

I think that lucas story mode it coud be 100% better if they represent the boss of every battle represents the boss fight after eveey needle like representate fassad with a metal wario with a jetpack or the gigant gorilla with dk Also I apologize if I write everything bad I don't speak English

0:25 Gex

Did he just say Ryu and Ken are in love?

I liked both version you proposed for Lucas' classic mode but The "mother 3" mode is a bit too much and made the video a drag from that point.

5:54 haha you say gerudo differently than how I say it I will make fun of you hahaha

0:19 Technically that's not true

Hey, sorry, I saw a bit further into the video and I heard you pronounce it "jih-rudo valley". I'm gonna have to retract my nice comment before and leave a dislike. I apologize!

Ryu and Ken are now gay. This is canon.

I don't like Ness' render, because when you put the Zelda characters together, they look awesome, but when you put Ness and Lucas together, Ness looks weird lmfao

5:54 i don’t want to be annoying, but it’s not pronounced as “jerudo”. It’s a transliteration from Japanese to English, so, if it was pronounced like that, then it would be written “jerudo” rather than “gerudo”.

Why would you fucking make Lucas fight hinawa and claus in the last battle

honestly the problem with those reference fights is that its a cool novelty but the game thinks its the coolest shit ever and has 2 modes literally just dedicated to endless reference fights where they just reorganize assets they already have and dont make anything new theres only so much you can do

Also Onett is actually pronounced One-et. Like the number one. Yes you have been saying it wrong this whole time. You say One and then et. Onett. My whole life is a lie!

15:10 Yeah, that basically summed up your whole video.

He’s not bad lbs

'Promo SM'

negatively focused and underwhelming.
