Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC: 7 Pokémon We Need To See

Gotta smash 'em all.

Whenever a new Smash Bros is announced, the internet collectively speculates what new Pokémon will be appearing in the game as a fighter.

With Smash Bros Ultimate we got the addition of Incineroar, though in taking the Pokémon fighter slot, fans would have to wait another five-plus years for their favourite pocket monster to be added to the game. With DLC though, maybe we won't have to wait so long.

You may argue that Pokémon is one of the most represented franchises in Smash, with Ultimate having eight to ten Pokémon in the base game (depending on how you count them), though as of Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! there are 809 Pokémon to choose from.

That means just over 1% of Pokémon are available to fight in Smash, so having a few more can't hurt, right?

But which deserve to be in included? Whilst an argument could be made for almost every Pokémon out there, due to potential fighter uniqueness and popularity, this lot would be perfect picks.

7. Eevee

Eevee has always been one of the most popular Pokémon since its debut in the first generation of Pokémon games. Eevee is a special Pokémon with the ability to turn into numerous different types depending on how it is evolved.

Want a cute, ice-type Glaceon? Travel to the coldest place the region has to offer and find an Ice Rock. How about a dark-type Umbreon? Make sure your Eevee really loves you, and level up at night time.

Eevee's moveset would be based on the moves it learns throughout the games, Veevee Volley from Let's Go, Eevee! would be a great recovery move, headbutt would be a great neutral attack (just like with Pikachu), and Eevee's final smash could be calling upon all of its evolutions to attack the opponent.

Alternate costumes could be based on the outfits Eevee can wear in Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee!, and of course, one based on its awesome white shiny form.

Eevee already appears as a summon of sorts through the Poké Ball item, so make that moveset controllable and we're in business.
