This is an idea I've had for a while. Which of the smashers would win in a tournament if they had all their powers available to them and we weren't in control of them? In other words, it's a battle based on how strong they are canonically!

Who fights whom and where they fight has been decided by randomthingychooser.com. I swear, it actually picked these fights. Some of them are amazing coincidences.

Here's how this is going to work. Each topic (like every other day or so), there will be a fight to vote on. Before voting, read the OP. I will have listed things to consider in the fight. Here are a few rules/things to expect:

1. As a default, all characters have every ability/item they have ever had in any canon game available to them unless I specify otherwise. I will almost always specify that godlike items such as the Star Rod or the completed Triforce do not count.

2. Items and abilities do not stack. For example, Link will have 99 arrows because that is the max he has ever had in any game (and, yes, Link in this tournament is a combination of all Links).

3. Any ability or item or whatever that occurs as a result of a glitch or a cheat does not count.

4. I will tell you anything relevant about their surroundings that might affect the fight in any way.

5. Any contradiction between games I will resolve (if I don't please point it out to me and I will make a ruling). For example, Yoshi will not dissolve in water.

6. Health should not be taken literally. In other words, Mario doesn't die in 3 hits. However, it should be taken into consideration for comparisons. For example, while Mario doesn't actually die in 3 hits, 3 points of health is still a much smaller amount than Link's 20 hearts. I won't specify an exact exchange rate for any character ever, but I'll let you interpret it as you wish.

So, here we go:

Ice Climbers:
They can jump really high!
Expert climbers!

Diddy Kong:
He can activate his Jet Barrels at any time
Jet Barrels run on Crystal Coconuts
He has 30 Crystal Coconuts (each one lasts roughly 5 seconds)
30 grenade oranges
Peanut Popguns with 200 peanuts and 50 homing peanuts
Peanuts do not explode, but a few peanuts strike with enough force to knock out a bipedal crocodile
Guitar (it never seems to do much to non-normal enemies)

Sky World:
I admit, I know very little about Kid Icarus. However, I know that Sky World is in the sky! The Ice Climbers and Diddy can stand on the clouds, but they will plummet to certain doom if they fall off. There are no Crystal Coconuts or any refills for Diddy.

I really don't see how Ice Climbers are defeating Diddy given the scenario and abilities listed... Diddy should take this quite easily

I don't list all abilities. I just list things that I think are relevant, need specifying (usually because of contradictions between games), people probably forgot about or don't know about, or things that need to be taken away.

I should probably make that more clear. I swear, I did at some point...

Hmm... but in any case, given that, I still don't see much of a way for the Ice Climbers to defeat Diddy... I'm pretty sure Diddy isn't going to get frozen by them, their ice isn't exactly fast moving.

Yeah, Diddy got incredibly lucky. Not only did he get one of the few people he could beat, but he got to fight them in the sky.

Still, don't doubt the Ice Climbers' ability to NOT fall off of high up places!

Easy win for Diddy. IC's have nothing but hammers and high jumps, Diddy has an arsenal of weapons.

Who's the strongest Donkey Kong? Brown? Green? Blue? Red? White? Black? They're gonna fight it out.

It would appear that Diddy is winning.

What a twist!
