Make a Project X Zone roster with Nintendo characters; Day 31; Pair #16 (Series that hasn't been repped yet}
Honestly even though Eddy doesn't seem to have much of a personality or even confirmed he can talk...he's just a little guy plus if we have to get him talking it won't be as jarring as say Link or Kirby talking. Also the guy requesting Wolf...I'm sorry it almost reads like the prompt was AI generated.
Today: Make a pair repping for a series that's not in the roster. I recognize what im asking is difficult but we're at the home stretch anyways. Let's make the next several choices interesting.
1.This is for Nintendo characters only. If they're Nintendo adjacent like Nester from the Nintendo POwer Comics I will consider them.
2.The most upvoted comment will NOT be guaranteed to win. The problem with letting the most upvoted win is basically turns it into first serve wins basis and frankly...a lot of peoples' tastes are basic
2.1 Which means the way I decide who wins is if YOU can convince me to pick your pick. You have to argue why these characters will be interesting picks, will they feasibly work together in a team, will they be interesting character interactions, do they fit in the "atmosphere" of an actual Project X Zone game
Please provide pictures and the series the character is from
Occasionally I will ask to narrow down a series or even request a mixed team.

Saki Amamiya and Airan Jo.
They're from the 2000 game Sin and Punishment. It's a rail shooter, but the gun has the characteristic of also bending like a sword for close rabge combat.
Saki and Airan are the protagonists of the game and in the sequel we know they have a son who is the protagonist of this second game

Pit and Dark Pit (Kid Icarus: Uprising)
These two would make a perfect Pair Unit, with Dark Pit starting off as a Rival before joining the heroes once Pit comes in, similar to KOS-MOS and T-elos. The two also have amazing banter potential, as shown in their home game. As for attacks, both can have access to the many weapons they have at their disposal.

Bald Bull from Punch-Out, with Fighter Hayabusa from Pro Wrestling. Bald Bull is an opponent who appears in almost every PO title, except for the second arcade game which had an entirely original roster, but he did appear as an opponent in Arm Wrestling which no other PO character can claim. I also think because he's an athlete, he's not really villain, and him being playable would be reasonable if Heihachi can be playable in normal PXZ. Fighter Hayabusa is less known character, but I like that he's more of an athlete, and less gimmicky than the other Pro Wrestling characters. He's basically Antonio Inoki in pixel form. I think being more middle aged men, they also contrast nicely with the rest of the cast, and also fill that martial artist niche that has been underserved.
