paper mario is plausible. buuuut i doubt it'll happen, as much as i would scream and promptly die happily if it did.
This is true, but only to a point. Super Paper Mario was represented in Brawl via trophies, which means it's a little beyond the range of SSB4's dive into last gen. This will be true of DS games as well... Most of the Pokemon influence will be from Gen 5 and 6, for example, because Brawl did 4.
Edit: The most recent thing we've seen in SSB4 so far is Greninja. It's safe to assume that SSB4 will be looking at the games which released between Brawl and Pokemon X and Y (2008-2013).
