Now it's been confirmed by Famitsu that the starting roster consists of 23 characters. I'll delve on that more later when I show them their stats. BUT, for now, I'll tell you a few good news. Smash balls can be broken by PPs and ATs and items. So if there are items...especially those that can do multiple damage at once, use them to pry open those smash balls! Secondly, the Pokémon Trainer's pokémon get tired EVERY 2 minutes. After that time, the pokémon are slower and weaker. So try to keep track of time.
And now for the stats! The ones in RED are the TOP 5 strongest moves. The percentage there is the minimum percentage before that move can kill Mario at the center of Final Destination.

Confirmed Hidden Characters:
Snake, Sonic, Ness, Marth, Luigi, Falco, Captain Falcon, Lucario, R.O.B., Mr. Game & Watch, Ganondorf, Jigglypuff, Toon Link and Wolf
Just to recap the top 5 best moves, they are:
1. King Dedede's Side Smash A - 44%
2. Ike's Side Smash A - 48%
3. Ivysaur's Up Smash A - 59%
4. Zelda's Aerial Forward/Backward A - 67%
5. Lucas' Up Smash A and DK's Side Smash A - 75%
Now those moves definitely must be avoided. And other than my opinions up there, I really think that Zelda's going to be my main and not Sheik. Zelda's quick enough now and definitely more powerful!
NOTES:
1. If one of these four special techniques (Wall Hop, Wall Cling, Crawl and Glide) is not with a character, that means it really isn't. Tether and Float are those that I added from my notes.
2. Sonic, Snake, Jigglypuff, Lucario and Ness are Hidden Characters.
