So it's 3am, I'm bored and I have a crazy new theory about characters.
A few character teams seem a bit odd. Why would Zangief and Rufus be a team? Why would Rolento and Ibuki be a team? Why would Sagat and Dhalsim be a team? I think I've got it figured out.
The logical partner for Zangief is R.Mika. He is her idol, they fought in SFA3.
Rolentos logical partner is Sodom, both are FF bosses.
Despite being "rivals", I'd think Adon would make more sense than Dhalsim as Sagats partner.
I don't know about Adon but I've seen a lot of requests for R.Mika and Sodom and, Capcom being Capcom, they aren't going to pass up the opportunity to make a few extra dollars from this.
So they left R.Mika and Sodom out, along with other characters, I'm sure, in order to sell them later as DLC.
Zangief and the others now have no partner so they use these openings to fit in characters who they couldn't give a partner to. Rufus, Ibuki and Dhalsim.
