wikibooks merging
are we going to merge the whole movelists thing, with all the strategies and stuff, onto this one page? cause that would be better for navigation, yet it would get pretty big. One thing we could do is have the movelists here like they are, with detailed ones from wikibooks on separate mini pages, along with damage info and strategies--blendmaster 21:12, 18 May 2006 (PDT)

Move Names?
Does any one know the offical names of the moves or if there are any? I can get the debug move numbers, but I'm wondering if there is a convention or just people make up the move names and the best ones stick?--Yahivin 18:58, 8 June 2006 (PDT)

Character Moveset Layouts
I think we need to have a consistent moveset layout for all the character's that gives the stats on all the moves. Here is my suggested style:

Each attack move should have the following data:

Button Combo Move Name Duration (in frames) Hit Frames Damage (Range of percents for smash attacks, unspammed strength for other attacks) Range (Area that the hitbox reaches) Knockback (Pitch velocity on hit against Mario, and angle at which the hit sends without DI) Priority IASA (Frame) Hitbox Animation (.gif) (Projectiles should have additional or slightly different information) (Rolls and dodges also should have slightly different information)

All a characters moves should be listed as follows

Standing Ground: A A A (If character has one) A A A (If character has one) UTilt + A FTilt + A DTilt + A USmash + A FSmash + A DSmash + A Grab

Dashing Ground: A Grab

Throws: UThrow FThrow BThrow DThrow A (Captive hit)

Aerials: NAir FAir BAir UAir DAir

Specials: B Up + B Forward + B Down + B

Defensive: Air Dodge Ground Dodge Roll --Yahivin 10:55, 24 May 2006 (PDT)
