I shouldn't do this but... what's with all the high Luigi picks? Even if you don't put much stock in last year, he's never been worth much more than 30%. Mudkip has every reason to at least match Bidoof, who's came out right around the fodder line based on his result. And why should Luigi be able to SFF a Pokemon badly when neither Bowser nor Link could manage it? And then Meta Knight wowed us all just last week, with most people agreeing that his cool look and many Brawl updates helped give him an edge. Yet Pit, who's been featured on the Brawl site just as often, and looks awesome, is getting picked to barely get into the teens. And then there's Tingle, who already proved himself in a Contest setting. Granted, his 17% value was based of Sora, who always sends plenty of anti-votes his opponent's way, but I still say being associated with Zelda is enough to keep you from completely rolling over and dying in this format.

I guess the idea is what with so much Nintendo, the strongest N representative will SFF his way to a bigger win than his straight up value dictates. But after it didn't work for Bowser, and we've overestimated nearly every other #1... Oh wait, forgot about Fox. Yeah, I guess Luigi could pull a mini-Fox... but eh, I don't see it.
