Talk:Clone/Archive 3: Difference between revisions

Kirby and Jigglypuff I could see being considered semi-clones if you emphasize standard attacks over special attacks. But if you are going to claim any two characters having just one attack with a similar animation bring semi-clones, then you could considered every sword character as being semi-clones due to them having a similar down smash or all the characters who have the basic sex kick nair as being semi-clones. You could also consider Ike and Marth as being semi-clones for both having Counter along with their down and forward smashes being somewhat similar (which as I can recall, you believe they were not semi-clones). Generally, special moves are usually considered more important in deciding clones/semi-clones. As such, Kirby and Jigglypuff have vastly different specials along with Captain Falcon and Samus. Out of the semi-clones you listed, the only I would possibly agree that were semi-clones were Kirby and Jigglypuff in the first ''SSB''. It seems that people are too hasty in deciding who are clones and semi-clones. In my opinion, two characters should at least have a forth to a third of their attacks being similar in appearance and function to be possibly considered semi-clones. Also, for two attacks to be the "same", they must contain the same exact hitboxes (which no attacks do). I reverted to an older version since you done that to my edit, which removed information I have put in the article as well as for not bringing this issue up on the talk page first. There are no official clones/semi-clones, thus this article is based on consensus and your opinion alone does not equal consensus. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png|25px ]] 06:43, June 26, 2010 (UTC)
