Manaphy: Where?

[Garlic Man]

After seeing the smashbros dojo update that included Manaphy, I thought it was such a cool idea to have a Pokemon like that (i.e. characters being switched).

And that was about 3 years ago. To this day, I have never encountered Manaphy while playing Brawl. I'm pretty sure they aren't rare or anything (i.e. Mew and Celebi only appear very rarely). Has anybody else ever seen Manaphy? Or is it just my game that it doesn't appear?

I don't recall encountering a Pokemon with such abilities that you described. Then again, I haven't played the game in a while.

Fuck. I've never seen that Manaphy either.
It sounds awesome, too...

Don't worry, I haven't either.

 

[Time Turner]

I did.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

Agreed.

 

[Lario]

I'm sure I've seen it three times although I don't play Brawl often.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

Wait a minute... I might have actually seen that Pokemon in Brawl before. I'm not certain.

 

[Garlic Man]

Dang. At least it's good to know that I'm not the only one that hasn't encountered it. Maybe I should send an email to whoever and ask about this. (I feel like I've been ripped off )

Correction: Two times.

I was thinking of Jirachi or however you spell it...

 

[Rad Dudesman]

I've seen Manaphy.

*bleep*. I've never seen that Manaphy either.

As said in the Smash Dojo, Manaphy switches the characters around but it's not really that good, first of all it is sort of confusing at first, and then what happen if you switch back to normal while the character's body is flying off screen, it's not that full-proof

Ahaha I now have a new strategy... Jump off of the stage at the last second so that my opponent switches before I die.

the easiest way to do this is to play stock with 99 lives against CPU level 1 foes, then just crank the items to very high and just have pokeballs.

Doing this, I was able to see 2 mews, 1 Celebi, and 4 Manaphy's in one go.

I get Jirachi about once a month or so....

Oh gosh, why didn't I think of that?

 

[Mijzelffan]

I have never seen it before either. Very annoying that they made it so rare.

 

[Tyrell Badd]

Are you kidding? Manaphy is like the most common rare Pokemon for me. I never see Celebi, and when she appears, the trophies always fall off the stage.

 

[Redshift]

Manaphy is supposed to be a rare Pokémon, like Mew, Celebi, and Jirachi. I never encountered Manaphy, but I have encountered Celebi just a few days after getting the game

 

[WaluigiWare]

I got Brawl a few months after it came out and I still have NEVER encountered Manaphy.

I've seen Mew, Celebi, and Jirachi, but no Manaphy.

Same

 

[Redshift]

Maybe I never see Manaphy because I never turn the Pokeballs on (mainly because crap Pokemon that don't help me such as Munchlax, Goldeen, Gardevoir, Chansey, and Bonsly come out 1 out of every 3 Pokeballs).

 

[unit4545]

Manaphy is the second-rarest pokemon in the game.

It causes you to swap characters.

 

[Redshift]

Or the rarest. It's the Pokemon I've never met.

Not that I want to meet one, anyway.

 

[unit4545]

What about jirachi? it grants your wishes if you see him in a random 7-day period every 1000 years!
