Name: Dragon Queen
Debut: Super Smash Bros. Discord (20XX)
Current wielder of the Dragon Queen title, the Dragon Queen hails from another Smash universe beyond Swansong's, one where she’s taken Mario’s place as the balanced fighter. The Dragon Queen’s moveset borrows heavily for her custom movepool back from her homeworld, showcasing its wide array of options while putting new spins on each move presented.
|
Neutral Special: Burning Knuckle. The Dragon Queen shoots a comically small fireball out of her mouth and at her hand, setting it aflame. The flame, if not used for too long, fizzles out eventually. Delivering a punch straight to a foe’s chest with the fire multiplies the damage by two times, but without it leaves it at a modest 7%.
Side Special: Dragon Glacier. The Dragon Queen blows a puff of cold air, creating a small glacier that slides along the floor. If an opponent is hit at the beginning of the move, they take much more damage, while they take less damage as the glacier melts. If they’re at over 100% in damage, the glacier temporarily freezes them.
Up Special: Tail Tornado. The Dragon Queen lunges forwards and shoots a small tornado out via rapid tail movements. The tornado is only on screen for two seconds, but any opponent caught in it takes 1% of damage each time the attack hits them. If they’re stuck in the tornado for the entire time, they’re shot upwards, but not high enough to instantly K.O. them unleash they’re at high percentages.
Down Special: Dragon’s Fence. The Dragon Queen stomps her foot and creates a large green crystal a few inches away from her, acting as a sort of barrier than can reflect projectiles. The barrier can be broken after three projectiles hit it or after enough physical damage has been done it to it by hand.
Final Smash: Loyalty to the Scales. The Dragon Queen calls upon four dragons from a large wheel behind her, unleashing two large pillars of flames on her left and right sides. The pillars not only directly attack opponents above them, but also shoot out fireballs that target other fighters on the stage. The pillars eventually die down, the four dragons disappearing in a flash of light.

Name: Mario
Debut: Super Mario Bros. (1985)
Mario is back and better than ever! A blue collar guy to the core, Mario is a versatile balanced character that serves as both a powerful tool and a guide for newcomers to the series. Aspects of his moveset have been modified and changed to reflect more of his appearances, such as his side special, down special, and even his Final Smash. While still familar to new players. Mario has plenty of new tricks up his sleeves to surprise older fans.
|
Neutral Special: Fireball. Mario launches a single fireball at an enemy, traveling across the stage. The fireball spins around in the air for a few frames before disappearing and does minimal damage by itself, but does well in slightly stunning foes and leaving them open to Mario's future attacks.
Side Special: Hat's Off To You. Mario throws Cappy at an enemy, knocking them back a bit. Cappy himself is a decent projectile, but can be jumped on if the B button is held down. This gives Mario an extra vertical boost and can be used in the air to trick foes before getting back up to the stage.
Up Special: Super Jump Punch. Mario does his iconic jump, complete with coins and Cappy's eyes appearing. If you hit an opponent upon starting up the move, Mario's fist does multiple hits and pushes both him and the foe higher. The coins change from gold, purple, and red randomly, but only for aesthetic purposes.
Down Special: F.L.U.D.D.. Mario pulls out his trusty F.L.U.D.D. and now has a multitude of attack options. If Mario uses his neutral special, he shoots out of a burst of water that can go on until the water runs out, leaving Mario stationary. The side special is now the Turbo Nozzle, ramming into foes at the cost of worse handling until the button is let go of. The up special becomes the Rocket Nozzle, shooting Mario vertically upwards before having him dive straight down into the ground. Using the down special again allows Mario to unequip F.L.U.D.D..
Final Smash: Super Mario Maker. Mario slips on his builders uniform and begins to add in multiple hazards onto the stage, trapping opponents in a box of hard blocks as Bob-Ombs, Thwomps, Hammer Bros., and Bullet Bills assault their target. As a final send-off, a Banzai Bill appears from the background and rams into all foes caught in the box, dealing massive damage.

Name: Luigi
Debut: Super Mario Bros. (1985)
The cowardly and endearing Luigi makes his way back to the world of Super Smash Bros., complete with new additions to his moveset. Compared to previous outings, Luigi now functions like a completely different beast overall, using moves exclusive to him and only him. Luigi still keeps his side and down special, but has entirely new moves that make references to past games he's been in.
|
Neutral Special: Thunderhand. Luigi charges up a ball of electricity between his hands, the ball getting bigger the longer B is held. Luigi can then store it for later and get close to an opponent, stunning them once he unleashes the attack. The attack itself doesn't stun enemies unlike other electric attacks, focusing on hitting them with more and more force depending on the projectile's size.
Side Special: Green Missile. Luigi charges up and launches himself in the direction he's facing like a rocket. This move can be handy in off-stage situations, propelling you closer to the stage but leaving you stuck in walls or the sides of the stage if pulled off correctly.
Up Special: Balloon Ride. Luigi slips on his balloon pack from Luigi's Balloon World, floating upwards as the balloon's deflate one by one. Like Villager's up B, the balloons can be destroyed, but take Luigi higher automatically. Unlike Villager, however, Luigi is able to drop the backpack onto the ground and use it like a regular item, doing more damage depending on the amount of balloons left in it.
Down Special: Luigi Cyclone. Luigi spins around, whirling into a tornado-like form before shoving his arms out and hitting any foe in his path. If he hits an opponent, they spin around with him before the arms launch them outwards and away from Luigi, the green plumber sighing as the attack ends.
Final Smash: Poltergust G00. Luigi sucks in one or more opponents into his new Poltergust G00. Upon catching a figher in the gust, Luigi slams them upon the ground like he does in Luigi's Mansion 3, going back and forth before sucking them into the Poltergust. The vacuum rattles around and expands as the fighter tumbles around inside before Luigi shoots them out and deals plenty of damage.

Name: Princess Peach
Debut: Super Mario Bros. (1985)
The princess of the Mushroom Kingdom returns for yet another outing with her trusted friends...and foes. Peach has been somewhat retooled from her past appearances, ranging from cosmetic differences to full-on new attacks, plenty of them coming from Super Princess Peach, including the addition of a brand new Final Smash. She still functions as the floaty and graceful fighter we all know her as, however.
|
Neutral Special: Toad Protector. A Toad pops out of nowhere, jabbing and punching outwardsto protect Peach from any attack for a short while before disappearing. A few frames are left open where an opponent can run in and grab Toad, using him as a one-use projectile while not doing damage to Peach if he's taken.
Side Special: Perry Strike. Peach grabs Perry from Super Princess Peach and holds him by the handle. When closed, Peach can strike, swing, and stab with Perry, while when open, Peach can ram into a foe with the living umbrella, twirling it around in her hands at the cost of range. Peach can put Perry back whenever she wants, but the closed and open playstyles allow for multiple ways to use the move.
Up Special: Perry-sol Power. Peach once again pulls out Perry from thin air and juts it upwards, slowly floating back down onto the stage with ease. This move functions the same as her previous up special, only carryin aesthetic changes with it.
Down Special: Turnip Toss. Peach plucks a turnip out of the ground and chucks it at an enemy like a projectile. The turnip can sometimes be a helpful item, nothing, or even a Bob-Omb, but usually leans more towards the chances of plucking a turnip.
Final Smash: Vibe Specter. Peach pulls out the Vibe Scepter, which gives her one of four powers depending on her damage total when the Final Smash is used. 0-30% brings in Joy, allowing Peach to fly around freely and spin foes around like a tornado. 31-60% brings about Gloom, causing Peach to cry waterfalls that drag opponents away from the stage and do chip damage. 61-90% causes Anger, which causes Peach to erupt into flames and set a large around her ablaze. 91-999% uses Joy, bringing Peach's damage total down to 30%.

Name: Bowser
Debut: Super Mario Bros. (1985)
There is no Koopa more feared, sinister, and joked about than Bowser, the king of them all. Bowser is a heavy and brutal fighter with a focus on fire breath, scratches, and attacks with his spiky shell. Like other veterans, the Koopa King comes with new tricks for him to use and now resembles his regular canon appearance much more. He may be a big target, but Bowser is no slouch when it comes to combat.
|
Neutral Special: Fire Breath. Bowser breathes out a stream of fire that gets shorter and weaker the longer it's active. The stream is now able to be angled when the B button is held down and the control stick is moved up, although Bowser is still stationary throughout the attack.
Side Special: Flying Slam. Bowser grabs an opponent and jumps in the air, slamming them onto the ground. This move is identical to past versions in past games and, unlike other attacks, doesn't gain any form of super armor when used.
Up Special: Whirling Fortress. Bowser gets in his shell and whirls around, gaining air before falling back down. The shell does multiple hits like it always has, but now has more super armor on the top of the shell whereas the bottom has no armor, making quick reactions necessary if you're right under the Koopa King.
Down Special: Bowser Bomb. Bowser jumps up and does a ground pound, crushing whoever was under him. Unlike past games, this move has an increased amount of super armor, making Bowser almost unstoppable in the air but disappearing once he lands and leaving him open.
Final Smash: Giga Bowser. Bowser transforms into his monstorous Smash-exclusive form known as Giga Bowser and leaps in the background, ready to deliver a finishing blow to anyone he sees fit. An aiming reticle appears on the screen and can be aimed anywhere within a five second time limit. Upon the B button being pressed or the timer running out, Giga Bowser delivers a fist full of fury onto the stage, K.O.ing anyone he hits.

Name: Wart
Debut: Super Mario Bros. 2 (1988)
The evil ruler of Subcon has finally shown his face in the world of gaming after years of absence! Wart is a psuedo-echo of Bowser, using bubbles instead of fire while bringing his own sinister flair to the fray. His up special is similar to King Dedede's, acting as a competitor to the other evil kings on the roster. Wart's clearly been training for years in his absence and isn't afraid to declare himself the only real king in Smash.
|
Neutral Special: Bubble Breath. Wart breathes out a stream of bubbles that get less effective the longer it's active. Unlike Bowser's attack, Wart's version cannot be angled, only shooting straight ahead while giving Wart the advantage of jumping while using the attack.
Side Special: Subcon Slam. Wart grabs an opponent and jumps in the air, slamming them onto the ground. Unlike Bowser's version, Wart lands on his back rather than his stomach. While this change may seem small, this opens up the opportunity for Wart to follow the move up with smaller hits and strikes due to the missing amount of frames.
Up Special: Super Wart Hop. Wart performs Dedede's up special, jumping upwards and slamming down on the stage. Unlike Dedede's up special where Wart got the move, Subcon's ruler can perform a second bounce with an extra button input if he lands on the stage or platform, although the vertical distance isn't too great.
Down Special: Wart Bomb. Wart jumps up and does a ground pound, crushing whoever was under him. Unlike Bowser, Wart lacks the super armor while gaining faster ascension and descension speeds along with more damage done to those close to where he lands.
Final Smash: Subcon Strike. Wart calls upon some of his allies, including Mouser, Clawgrip, and Tryclyde to rain havoc upon foes, all of them attacking them in various harmful ways. Everyone except for Wart attacks first, trapping their targets in a large dust cloud before they all scatter away, only for their king to fall from the sky and crush them under his weight, ending the attack.

Name: Dr. Mario
Debut: Dr. Mario (1990)
Mario's medicine-practicing alter ego, Dr. Mario, has brought with him a new set of attacks. He's been completely de-cloned and now stands as a separate fighter with little-to-no moves borrowed from Mario himself. He can switch the direction of his pills to either horizontal or vertical, both providing unique attributes with each attack.
|
Neutral Special: Miracle Attack. Dr. Mario chucks a bottle of Megavitamins along the ground, the bottle bouncing along up to three times. There's always a chance the bottle could shatter, sending damaging pills flying in all directions.
Side Special: Virus Buster. Dr. Mario charges up an attack before unleashing a sort of punch-shove hybrid, knocking opponents down and leaving them open to attacks. The good doctor's fist has the image of a Megavitamin in it whenever the attack is unleashed.
Up Special: Doctor's Orders. Dr. Mario performs a move similar to the Super Jump, launching upwards and putting his fist out. The fist hits a giant Megavitamin, sending it flying up to the stage. The Megavitamin does more damage than Dr. Mario himself, but hitting it provides Dr. Mario with better vertical distance.
Down Special: Pill Swap. Dr. Mario swaps out the direction of his pills before launching a single one in a straight line. Horizontal pills are slower but deal more damage while vertical pills have the opposite effect. These new effects change the way a player uses Dr. Mario, giving him two unique playstyles in a way.
Final Smash: Flu Season. Dr. Mario sends any opponents caught within range to a large medical table, staring up at the ceiling. All of the sudden, large versions of the Viruses appear from above and crush the fighters underneath them.

Not even Mario's younger brother could stay away from the practice of medicine. Dr. Luigi is Dr. Mario's Echo Fighter, utilizing his pill-swapping mechanic while bringing some new things to the table. His most notable change is that his pills are L-shaped, making their individual effects even more prominent. The Viruses in his Final Smash come from Dr. Luigi rather than Dr. Mario.

Unlike Dr. Mario, Dr. Luigi's pills are L-shaped, which enhances the power of each when flipped. Even when the orientation is the same as his brother, the new shape allows for even more tricks to catch your foes off-guard.
Final Smash: Flu Season. Dr. Luigi sends any opponents caught within range to a large medical table, staring up at the ceiling. All of the sudden, large versions of his Viruses appear from above and crush the fighters underneath them.

Name: Rosalina & Luma
Debut: Super Mario Galaxy (2007)
The cosmic duo has returned for yet another brawl. Rosaline & Luma work together, with Rosalina being able to shoot off the Luma. Said Luma can also attack others, but is extremely easy to launch off stage, although it does regenerate shortly after it's previous demise. Coming with slight alterations and new tricks, Rosalina is floaty, fun, and frightenly powerful when placed in the right hands.
|
Neutral Special: Luma Shot. Rosalina charges the Luma and fires it off at an opponent, hitting them. The Luma, as a projectile, gets stronger the longer the B button is held, but is still easy to defeat even when it's fully charged. The next Luma spawns ten seconds after the last one, leaving Rosalina to fend for herself.
Side Special: Star Bits. Rosalina fires off three differently colored Star Bits at enemies, each one of them firing off at different angles. These Star Bits are now projectiles, unlike past games, meaning they can now be absorbed by others. In exchange, the Star Bits now fire even faster and do a bit more damage than before.
Up Special: Launch Star. Rosalina creates a Launch Star out of thin air and hopes in, the star launching her straight into the air like a cannon. Unlike past games, Rosalina's head is now a hitbox upon being launched, dealing damage to anyone above her before she begins to fall.
Down Special: Gravitational Pull. Rosalina whirls her wand around, creating a gravitational pull that pulls in nearby objects and foes closer with sheer gravity alone. This can be useful in getting not only items sooner, but also dragging enemies towards you when they least expect it.
Final Smash: End of the Universe. Rosalina traps nearby foes in a black hole, sucking them in and triggering a cutscene. In it, planets, meteors, and other space debris are sucked in as the universe explodes in on itself, dealing massive damage to the fighter as Rosalina's clear outline looms over them. Once the universe ends, the fighter is shot back to the stage, ending the attack.

|
Neutral Special: Clown Cannon. Bowser Jr. launches a cannonball out of the Clown Car's mouth, firing in a straight line before descending if it doesn't hit a target.
Side Special: Clown Kart Dash. The Clown Car gains a set of wheels and charges forward, able to turn around for a time when it crashes into opponents.

Name: Daisy
Debut: Super Mario Land (1989)
While nowhere near as iconic as her pink counterpart, the princess of Sarasaland, Daisy, has her own style, personality, and flair! Formerly an Echo fighter, she's been completely revamped in order to showcase her competitive, hard-hitting, and stylish nature. She uses elements from various Super Mario spin-offs, most notably including her sports appearances and references to Super Mario Land.
|
Neutral Special: Tokotoko Protector. Instead of a Toad, a Tokotoko from Super Mario Land appears to protect Daisy, blocking all attacks and delivering a single punch at her attack.
Side Special: Superball. Daisy is able to launch a Superball, which bounces around a few times before disappearing from the battlefield. It disappears immediately after it hits an opponent.
Up Special: Mega Strike. Daisy jumps upwards in somewhat of an arc, punching a soccer ball in whatever direction she's facing. Her movements reference Mario Strikers Charged from the Wii era.

Final Smash: Final Lap. Daisy hops on a motorcycle and throws opponents onto DK Mountain, placing them between an infamous shortcut and her. Daisy leaps over the shortcut and lands on them with the motorcycle as eleven more racers follow, sending the opponent soaring.

Name: Piranha Plant
Debut: Super Mario Bros. (1985)
All of the time the Piranha Plant spent off-screen was spent on training for Smash, preparing to take on Mario for over 30 years. Piranha Plant is surprisingly agile, maneuvering around in it's flower pot extremely well while using it's large head and leaves to dish out some damage. It even turns into the sinister Naval Piranha for it's devastating Final Smash.
|
Neutral Special: Ptooie. Piranha Plant blows a spiked ball into the air, keeping it propelled with it's breath. It can launch the ball left or right if the left stick is hit, clobbering anyone who touches it.
Side Special: Poison Breath. Piranha Plant briefly turns into a Putrid Piranha Plant and breathes poison on any nearby foes, the poisonous cloud staying on the stage depending on how long it's been charged. If a fighter is in the cloud, they take chip damage until they escape.
Up Special: Piranhacopter. Piranha Plant spins it's leaves around rapidly, being able to fly high up into the sky with good horizontal and vertical distance. The character can be tilted to either side before eventually stopping.

Final Smash: Naval Piranha. Piranha Plant smiles as Kamek flies in and turns into the Naval Piranha, spreading vines all over the stage before various Naval Buds lash and bite at the opponents caught in the attack, finishing off with a head-slam from the main head before the plant reverts back to it's original form.

Name: Geno
Debut: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (1996)
A warrior from the land of Star Road, Geno's true form is possessing the wooden doll he walks around in. This specific form is the one that's arrived to the battlefield. He functions like a long-ranged fighter that doubles as a glass cannon, utilizing strong projectiles to compensate for his weak defense. Some of his wooden limbs, such as his hands, becoming different shapes depending on the attack used.
|
Neutral Special: Geno Power. Geno fires out a small blast of energy in a straight line across the stage, three red stars appearing above his head. In order to fill these stars, Geno must hold down the B button while not taking damage, forcing the player to take a more strategic approach to fighting. Upon these stars filling, Geno can either fire a power stage-wide laser beam or channel this same energy into his down special.
Side Special: Geno Whirl. Geno spins around in a circle, damaging opponents as discs of light shoot out from underneat his cape. Like other projectiles, the discs shoot out at a certain distance before returning to their user, stunning whoever they hit. Geno is able to move away from his starting point, allowing the discs to fly out all the way to the blast zone before disappearing.
Up Special: Geno Boost. Geno thrusts himself upwards, with the thrust being able to be angled in four regular and four diagonal directions. Geno, in this state, is completely helpless and can't do damage while gaining some of the best aerial height in the game. By holding down the B button, Geno is able to charge how fast he shoots, giving players a new level of strategy.
Down Special: Geno Pillar. Geno's arm turns into a small cannon as the star warrior launches energy blasts downwards. The blast itself can be charged by holding down the B button not unlike his neutral special, ending up as a large pillar of energy that does massive damage if it hits a foe. When the B button is pressed, Geno fires out three smaller pillars that cover more range, while holding it down slighty releases two mid-size pillars.
Final Smash: Geno Flash. Geno turns into a large wooden cannon and launches a ball of energy that explodes when it lands, trapping anyone in it's radius in a fiery blast. The blast itself extends outwards not unlike a Smart Bomb, a small "cutesy" face appearing as it grows. When opponents within the blast take damage, a series of numbers above their head will count appear ala Super Mario RPG, the foes being K.O.'d if they're over 100% before the attack.

Name: Chain Chomp
Debut: Super Mario Bros. 3 (1988)
Once a common mook in the Super Mario franchise, Chain Chomp has evolved into an all-star after years on the sidelines! Chain Chomp is a heavyweight fighter with some amazing range, able to strike opponents from afar using his chain and his own body as tools of mass destruction. He's very set-up heavy
|
Neutral Special: One-Two Chomp. Chain Chomp bites two times depending on button presses, moving forward slightly with each chomp. The most basic attack a Chomp knows, this one specializes in getting large amounts knockback out of it's foes.
Side Special: Silver Roller. Chain Chomp, it's coat become a shining silver, rolls along the ground, targeting any player in his path. While somewhat slow, being caught under the attack buries you and leaves you wide open.
Up Special: Flame Chomp. Chain Chomp's chains become balls of fire as he thrusts himself high up into the air. As he rises, the fire is left behind as projectiles that hone in on enemies, lightly damaging them before Chomp comes back.
Down Special: Stake In. Chain Chomp tethers itself to the ground and charges up an attack that causes it to rush forward with immense power, crushing opponents with it's body rather than it's maw. It takes a lot of time to charge, but it's worth it for the sheer amount of damage.
Final Smash: Chomp Stampede. Chain Chomp lets out a loud bark as rumbling can be heard behind him. Chain Chomplets and even larger Chomps rampage across the stage, trampling over any and all fighters in their path. The Chomps gradually get bigger as the attack progresses, ending with a large golden Chomp rolling along the stage.

Name: O'Chunks
Debut: Super Paper Mario (2007)
One of Count Bleck's five main minions, O'Chunks is the strongest of the group and specializes in brute force. This translates over to Smash, where he's a juggernaut of sorts. His side special is extremely powerful when used right, ramming into opponents and only stopping at certain points. He was even given a better version of Wario's up special, fusing it with K.Rool's for a gas-tonishingly good recovery.
|
Neutral Special: Square Up. O'Chunks unleashes a single punch forwards that does nothing if it doesn't collide with other foes. If it does, he's able to unleash a few more before ending with an uppercut.
Side Special: Chunks Charge. O'Chunks runs across the stage and rams into any opponent in his path, stopping when he's hit or if he's at the edge of the stage.
Up Special: Chunks Away. O'Chunks proceeds to fart, lifting himself high up into the air. The putrid gas can chip away foes and the attack can be angled much like K.Rool's up special.
Down Special: Groundbreaker. O'Chunks lifts a large green block out of the ground and proceeds to throw it in the direction he's facing. If the block doesn't hit you, the small debris it creates upon impact will.
Final Smash: Raise the Roof! O'Chunks punches a nearby opponent into the halls of Castle Bleck. When they land, the roof begins to cave in on itself and fall, crushing them and immensely damaging them. O'Chunks then lifts up the roof, finishing the attack.

Name: Popple
Debut: Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga (2003)
The Shadow Thief himself, Popple has entered the fray in order to become the most legendary brawler in the land. Popple’s moveset revolves around his bag, with one item or projectile from other fighters able to be stored in it at a time. The item completely changes how all four of his specials work, an “Empty” and “Full” variation being there for each one. He’s a versatile foe, using his thievery to his advantage.
|
Neutral Special (Empty): Hammer Toss. Popple throws a single metal hammer in the air, a move taken from Rookie, with the hammer doing good damage if it hit foes square on the head. If the B button is held down for longer, the arc which the hammer travels in is higher, allowing for more overall options.
Neutral Special (Full): Item Toss. Popple reaches into his bag and throws the previously stored item out at a blazing fast speed, doing massive damage if it ends up hitting a foe. The throw, however, once again leaves the bag empty and even items like the one Popple gets from his side special are gone.
Side Special (Empty): Thief’s Trick. Popple deliberately rams right into opponents, damaging them in the process. If the B button is pressed at the peak of the attack when Popple first rams into his target, Popple stores a rather weak healing in his bag that he can use later with his full down special.
Side Special (Full): Bags Away. Popple spins around with his full bag now outstretched in front of him. If the bag hits a foe, it causes damage at the cost of the item inside of the bag, shattering due to it not being used for its intended purpose. If used repeatedly without hitting a fighter, the item eventually disappears from the bag.
Up Special (Empty): Onwards! Popple, his bag completely empty, lifts it over his head. The open bag acts as a glider of sorts, pushing him up into the air before he begins to glide back to safety. Eventually, the bag must return to its normal state, causing the Shadow Thief to fall to his potential demise.
Up Special (Full): Designbomb. Popple reaches into his bag and pulls out a Designbomb, throwing it under himself as it explodes. The explosion not only damages nearby foes, but propels Popple higher than he would without it. As a downside, the bag is now empty after this, the item now missing from it.
Down Special (Empty): Snatch. Popple is able to grab things on the ground and stuff them into his bag. With his bag now full, Popple has four options; use the down special again to take the item out, , use the side special to hit foes with the full bag, use the up special to use a Designbomb, or press the B button to aggressively throw the item in a one-use attack.
Down Special (Full): Item Reserve. Popple stops and opens his bag, pulling out the item that was inside and beginning to use it.

Name: Petey Piranha
Debut: Super Mario Sunshine (2002)
The morbidly large Piranha Plant himself, Petey fills the role of the now-absent Piranha Plant! Petey is a heavy fighter, utilizing tricks, traps, and set-ups in order to lure his targets into his hard-hitting attacks. He mainly focuses on doing minimal amounts of damage at a time before delivering said attacks, evident in his use of Nipper Plants and burrowing into the stage.
|
Neutral Special: Toxic Goop. Petey stands still and launches out a ball of goop, landing on the floor and ending up in a puddle on the stage.

Side Special: Nipper Sentry. Petey spews a small Nipper Plant from his mouth, the little guy hopping around and latching onto opponents. While somewhat similar to Bowser Jr.’s Mechakoopa, the Nipper inflicts flower damage if it bites enough times, chipping away at foes even when it dies.

While not exactly good for recovery, Petey is able to perform a ground pound mid-air if the B button is pressed before the attack ends.
Down Special: Piranha Sneak. Petey burrows himself into the ground and dashes across the ground, his petals visible as he travels. At the player’s command, Petey can leap up out of the ground and attack anything directly above him. Attacks that hit the ground can damage him and force him out of the ground, however.
Final Smash: Cage Crush. Petey rushes at opponents, only able to hit two before the scene cuts to him flying above the stadium from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, holding cages with his foes inside. Petey drops of the ground, smashing the cages into pieces and dealing devastating damage before the battle continues.

Name: King K.Rool
Debut: Donkey Kong Country (1994)
The egotistical, wacky, and borderline insane roleplaying leader of the Kremlings has return to the fray once more. King K.Rool uses a variety of tools and fighting styles, such as his blunderbuss, boxing gloves, and even his own gut. He masters in using the tools he has to lead into devastating combos. Don't forget the super armor he has embedded onto his golden belly!
|
Neutral Special: Blunderbuss. K.Rool fires a cannonball out of his blunderbuss that, if hit back at him, can be sucked back in and launched out at a 45 degree angle upwards. He can also suck in opponents and shoot them back out.

Name: Dixie Kong
Debut: Donkey Kong Country: Diddy's Kong Quest (1995)
Dixie Kong is one of most well-known members of the Kong Family, being Diddy's "partner in crime". She's a mixture of aspects of quick long-ranged and short-ranged characters, using her ponytail, barrels, and gumballs to attack her opponents. While built off of Diddy, she's slightly slower and more hardhitting than he is, giving this Kong a whole meta of her own.
|
Neutral Special: Barrel Throw. Dixie picks up a barrel out of thin air and is now holding onto it like an item; any attack that uses her ponytail now automatically tosses the barrel. This includes the up special blowing it above her, the grabs throwing it in the direction they're facing, and her Smash attacks sending it forwards like a rocket.
Side Special: Rambi Rampage. Dixie immediately charges forwards on Rambi's back, the rhino doing substantial shield damage along with physical damage. In this state, Dixie cannot hop off of Rambi, but she's able to steer in on the ground once just in case she wants to hit something she may have missed. The properties, speed, and more make this different from something like Wario's side special.
Up Special: Ponytail Spin. Dixie Kong imitates DK's up special, only flying higher with her ponytail. The ponytail itself doesn't do much damage and can be easily punished, but can do more damage from the sides when used on the ground.
Down Special: Bubblegum Toss. Dixie Kong throws bubblegum onto the ground, setting up a trap for fighters. The bubblegum is rather sticky and causes a slowdown effect when stepped in, but can also affect Dixie if she herself steps in it. After a few seconds, the trap disappears into thin air.
Final Smash: Gyrocopter Joyride. Dixie Kong hops into Funky's gyrocopter alongside her partner in crime Kiddy Kong, raining down bombs all over the stage and hitting any opponent in their path. The gyrocopter flies in from the background before giving the player the manual ability to drop bombs, doing immense damage if an opponent is struck multiple times with them.

Debut: The Legend of Zelda (1986)
Link is back and is still rocking his iconic Breath of the Wild design.

Name: Ganondorf
Debut: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998)

Name: Toon Zelda
Debut: The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker (2003)
Toon Zelda is the cartoonish version of Hyrule's beloved princess. Since the regular Zelda uses an entirely different moveset from her past self, Toon Zelda takes the old moveset and uses it, using Din's Fire, Nayru's Love, and Farore's Wind just like the old Zelda.

Name: Phantom Ganon
Debut: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998)
An illusion created by the Great King of Evil to duel with the Hero of Time, Phantom Ganon is a pure manifestation of evil. Since Ganondorf got himself a new moveset, Phantom Ganon keeps most of it intact barring his up special and Final Smash, both utilizing elements from Ocarina of Time.

Name: Skull Kid
Debut: The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask (2001)
A normal Skull Kid overtaken by the influence of Majora’s Mask, it seems that the mask does most of the fighting by using the child as his puppet. Skull Kid excels at movement, being able to zip around the stage and in the air with relative ease. This, along with his overall moveset, makes him quite the tricky character to utilize, with all of his specials depending on timing to get the best results.
|
Neutral Special: Tag Team Fairy Frenzy. Skull Kid calls upon Tatl and Tael, his two fairy friends from Majora’s Mask. Upon being summoned, the fairies move forwards in a straight line and latch onto any foes in their path.

This attack is easy to wiggle out of at lower percents.
Side Special: Majora’s Curse. Skull Kid points at the ground as a bolt of dark energy seeps into the ground. Skull Kid is now able to move this bolt, now a “puddle” of sorts, along the ground in one direction. He’s able to leave the puddle there and keep fighting, acting similarly to Snake’s C4’s. Upon activation, a burst of dark magic explodes from underneath a foe, doing no status effects but doing considerable damage.
Up Special: Playtime. Skull Kid lets out a maniacal laugh as he spins around, disappearing into thin air as purple smoke appears where he once was. Upon disappearing, Skull Kid is able to be rotated by 360 degrees around in a circle, jetting off like a rocket towards his selected destination. The attack does damage, but only on the first few frames where Skull Kid launches himself forwards.
Down Special: Puppet. Skull Kid whips out a horn and blows into it, summoning two large wooden puppets in front of him. While looking similar to Toon Zelda’s Phantom, the puppets function like a homing missile and actively seek out the closest opponent. The puppets only appears for a few three seconds, but if it reaches its target, both ram into the foe and shatter upon impact.
Final Smash: Reincarnation of Wrath. Skull Kid falls to the ground lifeless as Majora’s Mask tries to aim for a target. If the mask collides with a fighter, they’re then taken to a mysterious realm within the moon where Majora goes through all three phases of its boss fight, sprouting tentacles and lashing at his target before becoming Majora’s Incarnation and physically assaulting them while spinning. Finally, a series of whip strikes from Majora’s Wrath ends the attack, sending the puppet flying.

Koshia is agile, fast, and if used right, extremely hard-hitting.
|
Neutral Special: Clone’s Strike. Maz Koshia summons an identical copy of himself that dies in one hit, but essentially acts as the Nana to Koshia’s Popo. The twin is weaker, but can open up plenty of unique setups with the use of the clone.

Side Special: Spike Ball. Maz Koshia puts his hands together and summons a large Sheikah-branded spiked ball that lingers behind him the air. By using side B again, Maz Koshia launches the ball in whatever direction and angle he happens to be facing. The ball moves slower the longer its activate, but can easily lead into devastating K.O.’s if the ball makes contact with anyone at high percentages.
Up Special: Electric Leap. Maz Koshia does a backflip and leaps into the air, spinning around if the B button isn’t pressed. If the button is pressed, Maz Koshia stops in midair and pulls out a bow, firing an electric arrow straight in front of him that damages and stuns whoever it fits. Without the button press, Koshia lands safely and completes the arc, but with the button press, he falls from the air after he fires the arrow.
Down Special: Sheikah’s Warp. Maz Koshia prepares to defend himself from an attack, pulling out the Guardian Sword+ as a symbol made from red energy appears from behind him. Upon being struck, Maz Koshia disappears and reappears above an opponent in a few frames, diving the sword into their head and launching away as he lands safely, putting the sword away.
Final Smash: Goddesses’ Blessing. Maz Koshia floats in the air as he grows in size, flying to the far ends of the background as he stares into the screen. A reticle in the shape of a Sheikah symbol appears in the middle of the screen that the player can move around and aim at anywhere. After the B button is pressed, Maz Koshia fires a large laser beam out of his eye and covers a portion of the stage in it, damaging anyone who touches the attack.

Sylux is a Fusion Fighter of characters like Samus, Zero Suit Samus, and even Captain Falcon, Robin and the Mii Gunner, using it’s Shock Coil and other tricks as it’s way of fighting. It has the bulk of Samus but the speed of her Zero Suit form, making it a deadly opponent.
|
Neutral Special: Charge Shot. Sylux charges up a burst of energy that shoots out it’s arm cannon. While it is the same move as Samus’s neutral special, it comes out with more power behind it at the cost of some speed.
Side Special: Shock Coil. Sylux fires out a short beam of energy that, once it touches an opponent, drains their health for a short time. This move is a mix between Robin’s down special and Zero Suit Samus’s side special.
Up Special: Battlehammer. Sylux shoots out a burst of energy from underneath them, launching them upwards and damaging anyone beneath them in a manner similar to the Mii Gunner’s Lunar Launch move.
Down Special: Lockjaw. Sylux goes into it’s Lockjaw form and zips across the stage, stunning anyone it touches before getting back up. The move is functionally the same as Captain Falcon’s Falcon Kick with stun properties.
Final Smash: Delano Strike. Sylux hops on top of it’s ship, the Delano 7, and fires out blasts of energy before reenacting it’s intro from Metroid Prime Hunters, jumping from the ship and down to stage. The impact creates a small shockwave and can do good damage to any nearby foes.

Name: Torizo
Debut: Super Metroid (1994)
The Torizo is a hostile Chozo Statue that has fought against Samus on multiple occasions, always holding an item before attacking. In Smash, the Torizo is a slow yet powerful adversary that specializes in slowly racking up damage on opponents for sending them flying with physical strength. The character itself uses aspects from various Chozo incarnations from across plenty of different games.
|
Neutral Special: Plasma Launch. The Torizo launches three small projectiles from its mouth in the shape of bombs, the weapons landing on the ground. After that, they create small explosions that have similar properties to that of Arcfire or PK Fire, doing chip damage to foes while keeping them in place.
Side Special: Ghost Orb. The Torizo imitates a Chozo Ghost, summoning a white ball of energy that it throws at whatever’s in front of it. The ball, if it hits opponents, damages them with little knockback before immediately disappearing. If it hits a wall, however, the orb ricochets off of it and goes flying, disappear if it hits another wall.
Up Special: Elephant Bird. The Torizo, controlled by the X-Parasite, transforms into the strange form known as the Elephant Bird. The Elephant Bird is able to float a short distance in an arc shape, inflicting chip damage on anyone who touches it in that time. The Torizo eventually reforms back to its normal state.
Down Special: Warrior’s Mirror. The Torizo pulls out a large circular piece of glass and holds it up to about chest height. The mirror is able to reflect projectiles by itself, but by pressing the B button, it instead calls upon a bolt of lightning to drop down from the sky and land in front of the Torizo, allowing you trade a defensive option for an offensive one.
Final Smash: Nettori. The Torizo lets out a screech as vines wrap around any nearby opponents, tying them up and turning them into the dreaded Nettori. A cutscene now plays in which Samus runs into the beast and repeatedly fires at it and the opponent, damaging them as the vines explode into a fiery blaze and the cutscene ends.

Prince Fluff is a Fusion Fighter, using elements from Kirby, Jigglypuff, Ivysaur, and even the Belmont’s Smash attacks.

Galacta Knight is commonly referred to as one of, if not the most powerful being in the galaxy, going toe to toe with characters like Kirby.

Name: Marx
Debut: Kirby Super Star (1996
The original crazed jester with a penchant for body horror, Marx makes his grand entrance! Marx’s main gimmick is his ability to fly freely, an up special that no other fighter shares...although it comes a limit that, once broken, has serious consequences. Other than that, Marx is a technical character, using crescent-shaped projectiles and black holes to get the fight done his way and his way only.
|
Neutral Special: Crescent Cutter. Marx stays in place and fires four crescent-shaped projectiles from his wings, two on his left and right respectively. Holding down the B button allows the projectiles to launch farther but do the same damage overall, all the while giving Marx somewhat of a safe area to function in.
Side Special: Mirror, Fear. Marx splits into two copies of himself, referencing the Mirror copy ability present in the "Kirby" series. These two halves go to the left and the right, doing one hit of damage before melding back together into Marx’s base form. If you’re between the two Marx’s when they come back together, you’re knocked into the air slightly.
Up Special: Wishmaker’s Float. Marx starts to freely fly around in the air, able to dart all around the air. While a broken concept on paper, the scales on Marx’s wings begin to disappear for the few seconds he’s able to fly freely. If all of the scales disappear, Marx erupts into flames and has to recharge the scales, taking a ton of damage while doing so.
Down Special: Black Hole. Marx dives into the floor, a shadow now moving across the ground slightly. Marx then pops back up from the hole in the new position, damaging anyone he touches. The hole is able to be damaged from above, causing Marx to pop back out without launching upwards. In addition, the attack can’t be performed in the air.
Final Smash: Milky Way Wishes. Marx tosses an opponent up into the air before slapping them with his wing, sending them flying away from him into the stars. The opponent hurtles straight into Nova, causing the Clockwork Star to explode into pieces and massively damage the foe. All of this occurs as Marx laughs maniacally, taking glee in the suffering of his foe.

Name: Adeleine & Ribbon
Debut:Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (2000)
The plucky painter, Adeleine, and the friendly fairy, Ribbon, have teamed up in order to take down whatever foe tries to take "them" down! Adeline uses her ability to bring her paintings to life, whereas Ribbon fills more of a “support” role, carrying Adeleine upwards or giving her Ribbon’s Crystal for a long-ranged attack. The two make one unstoppable duo...although Adeleine is a rather light and fragile target.
|
Neutral Special: Ribbon’s Crystal. Adeleine pulls out the Crystal Gun used by Kirby before her, firing out up to three small crystal shards from across the stage if the B button is repeatedly pressed.

Side Special: Canvas Curse. Adeleine sends out a rainbow line straight out in front of her, the player able to twist the line with the use of the control stick before it stops a second or two later. After that, a small ball with Kirby’s face dashes along the line at a breakneck pace, hitting whoever it touches as the line disappears behind it.
Up Special: Fairy Carry. Ribbon grabs the back of Adeleine's shirt, carrying her upwards for a long time at the cost of decent air speed. Adeline herself can cancel the move at any point and have Ribbon let her go, the move itself not doing any damage.
Down Special: Paint-A-Picture. Adeleine pulls out a large canvas and begins to draw on it, a monster being sent out depending on how long the B button is held. If its held for a short amount of time, an N-Z pops out. If she holds for a bit longer, it’s now a Gordo. If she holds it for the longest amount of time she can, an Ice Dragon pops out instead.
Final Smash: Dark Matter Daze. Ribbon runs off as Adeleine is once again possessed by Dark Matter, creating a drawing of its ball form to attack the stage. The Dark Matter flies around in the background, firing off destructive projectiles before exploding into black paint, causing Adeleine to revert back to normal and Ribbon to come back.

Side Special: Leaf Storm. Sceptile charges up an attack and launches a series of grass blades in front of him. The blades do multiple hits on an opponent if they’re in front from Sceptile, acting as a sort of jab combo.
Up Special: Aerial Ace. Sceptile launches up into the air at a quick speed, covering great horizontal distance. If he hits an opponent from below, he gains a bit of additional air time as the foe flies upwards from the attack.
Down Special: Absorb. Sceptile fires a seed at a foe. If the seed hits them, a series of thorns poke out from under them and helps Sceptile recover health while the opponent takes damage. If it misses, the seed has no effect.

Name: Zoroark
Debut: Pokémon Black & White (2010)
The Illusion Fox Pokémon has finally come out of its Pokéball once and for all and joins other monsters on the battlefield! Zoroark is a mix of various characters, utilizing moves from Wolf‘s new moveset, Greninja, and Zeraora along with a unique move, Payback, which boosts its strength based on its use of combos. A quick and agile creature, Zoroark is a ferocious foe with tricks up his sleeve to boot.
|
Neutral Special: Payback. Zoroark unleashes a few slashes, pushing a foe back. If Zoroark follows the attack up with more combos, his strength is boosted until he’s locked in a combo himself. This is the only original attack Zoroark has in his kit.
Side Special: Hone Claws. Zoroark charges up multiple swipes from his claws before unleashing the attack on any nearby foe, finishing with a slightly stronger one. The move functions the same as Wolf’s Rapid Slash attack.
Up Special: Acrobatics. Zoroark leaps high up into the air and repeatedly slashes with his claws, ending with one swipe upwards before the attack ends. The properties of this attack are much different than Zeraora’s due to the lack of electric energy.
Down Special: Substitute. Zoroark disappears as a green substitute doll sits where he once stood, reappearing like a bullet with his claws barred. This move, while similar to Greninja’s down special, leads into combos easier than his.
Final Smash: Night Daze. Zoroark rushes at a nearby foe and launches them into a dark and spooky forest. As they lie there, Zoroark comes down from the sky claws-first and lands on the opponent, creating a shockwave of dark energy as the attack ends.

Name: Zeraora
Debut: Pokémon Sun & Moon (2016)
Zeraora is known as the Thunderclap Pokémon, debuting as the last Pokémon in 2016's Pokémon Sun & Moon. In Smash, Zeraora is a speedy fighter that prioritizes in getting up close to foes or trapping them, making it hard for them to fight and easier for him to dish out attacks. His special ability, Volt Absorb, has him heal from attacks if he repeatedly gets hits in, but stops when he's hit during a winning streak.
|
Neutral Special: Thunder Punch. Zeraora delivers a strong series of punches, his paws covered in electric sparks. These punches can go on for as long as the fighter wants at the cost of wearing Zeraora down the longer the attack is used, making him slightly slower for a good bunch of frames. The final punch has his fist fully enveloped in electricity, stunning his prey.
Side Special: Electroweb. Zeraora charges up an attack from his paws, shooting out a "web" of electric energy at foes. If another fighter is caught by the web, they're electrocuted before being launched back slightly. The delay on being launched back allows for Zeraora to rush in with the available frames to deal extra hits, making Electroweb a great overall combo starter.
Up Special: Acrobatics. Zeraora leaps high up into the air, repeatedly slashing and striking at the same time before beginning to fall back down. The attack can be angled to the left or the right slightly depending on where the player moves the control stick. The beginning of the attack, the leap, does no damage and can leave Zeraora vulnerable, but the second half, the slashing allows him to fight back with fierce intent.
Down Special: Plasma Fists. Zeraora lifts his arms up into the air before slamming them back down, creating an electric shockwave that travels across the stage until it either damages an opponent or disappears. The shockwave's damage peaks around Zeraora, getting progressively weaker as it travels outwards and making the attack a great tool for keeping up-close opponents off your back.
Final Smash: Gigavolt Havoc. Zeraora leaps into the air, it's entire body surrounded in lightning. Between it's paws is a bolt of electricity that is unleashed on whoever is trapped in the attack, taking the form of an electric blast that completely annihilates the fighter and hits the stage with rapid force. Even those who aren't involved in the Final Smash can be damaged by walking up to the blast, although they take less damage then the initial targets.

Name: Pikachu Libre
Debut: Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire (2014)
Pikachu Libre, formerly an alternate costume for Pikachu, has now become her own original fighter!

|
Neutral Special: Thunder Jolt. Pikachu Libre unleashes a ball of electricity that bounces in arc formations. The speed in which the ball moves fully depends on how long the ball has been charged, going slower the larger it is.
Side Special: Hoennian Whip. Pikachu Libre grabs an opponent and throws them away, having them bounce off of a wrestling ring rope. The attack performed after depends completely on timing, allowing Libre to hit hard with electricity the button is pressed at the right time.
Up Special: Flying Press. Pikachu Libre leaps up into the air, going in a slight arc formation before reaching her peak. At this point, she slams down upon the ground, burying any opponent directly beneath her.
Down Special: Revenge. Pikachu Libre blocks an attack and sends out a weak one. This move boosts the strength of Libre's next attack, making her stronger for a turn. Unlike Incineroar’s same attack, the move really benefits from the use of electric attacks.
Final Smash: Thunderclap Press. Pikachu Libre rams into nearby opponents, throwing them into a wrestling ring as she lands on a wrestling rope. Pikachu Libre then jumps up into the air, slamming back down on her foes as she surrounds herself in electricity, lightning erupting from the sheer impact.

Name: Masked Man
Debut: Mother 3 (2006)
The mysterious leader of Porky’s horrifying Pigmask Army, the Masked Man has more to him than meets the eye. None of his moves are similar to each other; in one, he could be using his arm cannon, while in another, he could be using his mechanical cyborg wings. The Masked Man is a jack of all trades with powerful tools at his disposal to boot, making a small yet dangerous opponent.
|
Neutral Special: Shot Fire. The Masked Man fires out a single burst of energy out of his arm cannon. The blast can be charged by holding down the B button, but cannot be held in and immediately releases once the button is released or another attack is used.
Side Special: Strike Slash. The Masked Man jumps into the air, leaping forwards as he thrusts his blade forwards. If he hits an opponent at the attack’s height, they’re launched farther than they usually would be.
Up Special:Scissor Wings. The Masked Man sprouts out mechanical wings from his back, propelling him upwards. The wings flap downwards, hitting anything in their path. The recovery goes into more an arc shape rather than a straight line.
Down Special: Shield Killer. The Masked Man lets off a brilliant flash of yellow light around him, damaging anyone nearby. Its name comes from how it’s a rather powerful move against shields, shrinking them if not outright breaking them.
Final Smash: Lightning Blade. The Masked Man dashes into opponents, sending them into a state of freefall in the air before he raises his blade, calling down lightning to strike his trapped foes. The amount of lightning depends on how many opponents you’ve caught in the attack, the attack failing if no opponents are dashed into.

Douglas Jay Falcon, known as the F-Zero racer/bounty hunter Captain Falcon, acts as a hard-hitting fighter that's fast on his feet.

Name: Jody Summer
Debut: F-Zero X (1998)
A spokesperson of the Galactic Space Federation and highly popular F-Zero racer, Jody Summer is no one to scoff at. In Smash, she’s a fusion of fighters such as Captain Falcon, Zero Suit Samus, Chun-Li, and even Bayonetta, being one of the fastest characters in the roster while utilizing acrobatic and fast fiery kicks to duke it out with her fellow F-Zero opponents.
|

Debut: Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem (2010)
Eremiya’s masked Berserker ally, Legion is one of many versions of himself to the point where he refers to himself as “we”. In Smash, Legion is an Echo of Echidna, using the same moveset with a twist; Legion is a heavyweight fighter yet he retains the speed of a lighter character. While this would make him quite the threat, Legion is an overall glass tank and is relatively easy to take out compared to other heavyweights.
|
Neutral Special: Immortal Dart. Legion charges up an attack from his Immortal Axe, pulling it and himself back before launching forwards. Unlike Echidna’s attack, Legion’s launches foes in the opposite direction rather than upwards, giving a good chunk of distance between him and his prey.
Side Special: Axe Rush. Legion, the blades of his axe facing outwards, rushes in the direction he’s facing in the hopes of hitting a foe. If he does, the axe does a good chunk of damage to the opponent at the cost of leaving Legion open to attacks. This is even more devastating to Legion due to his relative frailness overall.
Up Special: Leaping Strike. Legion throws the Immortal Axe into the air in an arc formation before leaping back up to grab it. If he fails to hit anyone or reach a ledge, he descends even faster than Echidna, plummeting with almost no chance of survival depending on where he’s located.

If the attack hits him, he’ll thrust him axe behind him before sweeping it at the opponent, knocking them back as he stays still.

Final Smash: Critical Shockwave. Legion throws his axe high up into the air, jumping up to grab it as the weapon moves directly above a foe.

Everything else is original to Vampire Wario, acting as a more technical variation on the greedy goon.
|

Down Special: Pumpkin Panic. Ashley plants a pumpkin on the ground and can do one of two things. If she's far away from it, she shoots out a beam of magic from Red's wand form, the pumpkin flying a bit across the stage. If she's close to it, she instead kicks it with her foot.
Final Smash: Fresh Off the Grill. Ashley and Red throw an opponent on top of a giant burger that's in the process of being made. Tens of different toppings (and even Wii Remotes) fall on top of the fighter before rats lunge at the burger, ending the Final Smash.

Name: K.K. Slider
Debut: Animal Forest (2001)
The Jack Russell terrier himself, K.K. Slider, has left the sidelines and has joined the fight! K.K. attacks with moves based on the various album covers from Animal Crossing: New Leaf, acting as a jack of all trades that’s good at keepaway. He also comes with the Sour Note mechanic, where enough hits on a fighter decreases their jumping ability for a short time.
|

Name: Little Mac
Debut: Punch-Out(1984)
A young boxer from New York, Little Mac was underestimated due to his small stature, but ended up making a big splash after beating Mr. Dream.

|
|
Name: King Hippo
Debut: Punch-Out!! (1987)
One of the many opponents Little Mac has faced, King Hippo is possibly one of the heaviest fighters in all of Super Smash Bros. Swansong, acting as an amalgamation of characters like Little Mac, King K.Rool, and King Dedede. He’s as slow as Incineroar and lacks a KO Meter, but makes up for it with his brutal strength and better up special, lifted from King Dedede of all fighters.
|

Name: Elma
Debut: Xenoblade Chronicles X (2015)
A BLADE colonel and the leader of the Reclaimers Division, Elma brings a unique playstyle to the world of Smash, utilizing dual swords and dual pistols.

This makes her options very versatile and allows for multiple ways to fight with her.

Neutral Special (Swords): Electric Surge. Elma charges up her swords with electric energy via holding B down. The longer the attack is charged, the more power the attack has when it lands on a foe.
Side Special (Guns): Sliding Slinger. Elma slides along the ground, her guns firing a few shots in front of her before he gets up and puts them away. The bullets fire in a 15 or 45 degree angle depending on if you press the B button during the slide.

Down Special: Weapon Swap. Elma stops and changes her current weapon into the unused one, changing her first three specials to totally different ones. While it does no damage, the different playstyles that come with each swap vastly change how Elma plays.
Final Smash: Aghasura Cannon. Elma calls upon one of the many Skells from Xenoblade Chronicles X, Ares, and begins to pilot it. The Skell is able to fire one single blast from it’s Aghasura Cannon and decimate a random point on the stage, damaging whoever the blast touches.

|
Name: Mòrag & Brighid

The Special Inquisitor of the Ardainian Empire, Mòrag and her Blade, Brighid, have come to duke it out in the world of Smash. Brighid is a stationary background character akin to the Pokémon Trainer with a twist; the Affinity mechanic. If Mòrag is closer to Brighid during the fight, her smash attacks and specials go farther and increase in power. When far away, however, the opposite effect occurs.

|
|
Name: Duck Hunt
Debut: Duck Hunt (1984)
Unlike most fighters, Duck Hunt is made up of three fighters; the dog, the duck, and the NES Zapper. Duck Hunt likes to control the stage, using long-reaching projectiles to deal out damage instead of running straight into an opponent. Other games that used the NES Zapper are also present in the trio's moveset, such as Wild Gunman and Hogan's Alley.

|
Name: Inkling
Debut: Splatoon (2015)
The squid-kid hybrid has returned for another brawl, this time rocking a design straight out of Splatoon 2. A fast and frantic fighter, the Inkling needs to fuel up on ink often and is able to coat fighters and the stage in said ink they can swim in. Like Link, their bombs are now remotely detonated instead of activating on their own, making their offensive attacks even more powerful.

|
|

The Deepsea Metro stopped in this strange new world...and Agent 8 just got off at her next stop. Like the Inkling, Agent 8 needs to swim in ink and can paint the stage, but has moves exclusive to them based off of the Octo Expansion, like 8-balls and the Inkjet.

|
Name: Spring Man
Debut: ARMS (2017)
Spring Man is the poster child for the ARMS League, acting as the most "normal" of the long-armed fighters in the group. In Smash, Spring Man has a charge ability that increases the power of his attacks whenever he successfully evades an attack, boosting his punches for a second or two.
|

|
Name: Springtron
Debut: ARMS (2017)

A fellow Venus Adept and former foe to Isaac, Felix comes in as Isaac’s Echo Fighter.

|
Neutral Special: Move. Felix summons a large glowing hand that damages opponents, pushing them backwards while damaging them at the same time. While functioning similarly to Isaac’s same move, the hand is smaller at the cost of doing more damage to whoever it ends up touching.
Side Special: Jupiter Dash. Felix charges up a sword strike before dashing across the stage, striking anyone in his path with the use of elemental energy. This version of the attack is more powerful than Isaacs due to Felix’s sword being an overall longer weapon, even dealing more damage at the middle of the blade.
Up Special: Retreat. Felix casts the Psynergy spell, Retreat, causing him to disappear into thin air and end up higher up in the air or farther away from where he previously was. The move can be aimed in that way if you immediately follow up the initial teleport with a press on the left control stick, either to the left, right, or upwards.
Down Special: Flame Pillar. Felix shoves his sword into the ground and causes a pillar of fire to appear a good distance away from him, shooting foes upwards. Felix’s version of the move is overall thinner, covering less distance while dealing more damage towards those he gets trapped in the attack.
Final Smash: Judgement. Felix calls upon Judgement, who swoops down from the sky and fires a blast from his lion gun. The blast damages all opponents caught in it's range, enveloping an entire point on the stage. Unlike other moves in Felix’s kit, Judgement functions the exact same between him and Isaac.

Up Special: Heavy Shoryuken. Ken leaps into the air via an uppercut, striking any opponents in his path. Unlike Ryus, this attack is multi-hit, damaging opponents over and over.

|

Debut: Final Fantasy XV (2016)
Born to the throne of Lucis, Noctis Lucis Caelum uses his Engine Blade and the power of the Lucian Kings to fight. Noctis does better when he catches opponents off-guard with the Engine Blade's warp function. He specializes in getting extremely close to opponents via the blade and striking them when they least expect it.

|

|
Name: Terra
Debut: Final Fantasy VI (1994)
A human/Esper halfbreed Magitek amnesiac with a mysterious past, Terra Branford has removed the Slave Crown and is ready to fight. In Smash, Terra uses the many spells known in the Final Fantasy series, acting as a glass cannon with a twist. A magic meter exists near her character icon, charging up overtime while lowering with the use of magic attacks and resulting in stronger magic if left charged.
|
Neutral Special: Blizzara. Terra places a diamond made of ice in front of her and can leave it there for a few seconds. Terra also has the ability to place another diamond somewhere else on the stage if she has the time. After time has passed, the crystal(s) will fly up into the sky at an angle, taking any foe in their path with them until they shatter after a few frames.
Neutral Special (Charged): Blizzaga. Terra places five orbs made of ice in a pentagon shape mid-air before immediately launching forwards. The orbs do slight damage with each one but really add up if all hit a foe one after another. Like her uncharged attack, Terra can leave the orbs be for a while before they automatically fire off.
Side Special: Fira. Terra puts both of her hands up and shoots up to four balls of fire across the stage. The fireballs only travel in a straight and disappear within a few frames, but can rack up damage if two or more hit. Using all four fireballs at once takes a good chunk out of the magic meter, but leaves foes open to other attacks.
Side Special (Charged): Firaga. Terra swings her blade along the ground, creating a single large wave of fire that travel along the stage. The wave does fire damage, but mainly does one hit rather than multiple. To compensate for the large size of the wave, it travels rather slowly but hits like a truck once it touches you.
Up Special: Tornado. Terra spins her blade around herself, creating a tornado around herself that launches them up into the air. The tornado is able to pull nearby projectiles and items towards Terra and can do slight damage to anyone who touches it. The main purpose of the attack is to provide vertical distance for Terra, however.
Up Special (Charged): Tornadaga. Terra spins around and summons a much more powerful tornado, propelling her both horizontally and vertically. The tornado does much more damage to anyone who happens to touch it and is able to block weak projectiles, doubling its use as a recovery and a damaging attack.
Down Special: Trance. Terra changes into her purple Esper form and gains a substantial increase to speed and attack at the cost of her magic meter. The attack can be used at any time (minus when cooldown is in effect), but it drains the meter as it’s used. An upside is that using her other specials don’t drain the meter in this state.
Final Smash: Riot Blade. Terra’s transforms into her Esper form and is given the Lightbringer, the most powerful sword in Final Fantasy VI. Terra immediately rushes towards the nearest foe, striking them with Riot Blade and the powerful effects that come with it. As one last attack, Terra uses Meteor, bombarding her prey with meteors before reverting back to her human form.

|
Name: Rock Howard
Debut: Garou: Mark of the Wolves (1999)
Biological son of Geese Howard and adoptive son of Terry Bogard, Rock Howard joins the fray with a twist on the Fatal Fury series’ icons. Rock brings a mix of both his adoptive and biological father’s fighting styles, using Terry’s up special and overall kit while taking Geese’s Reppuken among other things. Just like Terry, he comes with two side specials and two input specials, making him quite the deadly fighter.
|
Neutral Special: Repuuken. Rock fires a blast of blue energy from his fingers, aiming it at the ground. The attack moves along the ground for a short time and acts as a sort of wall unlike Terry’s Power Wave. When the B button is held down, the attack is slightly larger, moves faster, and deals slight knockback. It’s better for leading into attacks rather than being any kind of finisher.
Side Special (Forwards): Hard Edge. Rock rushes forward as his hand begins to be covered in blue energy, eventually striking a nearby opponent with full force via the open palm of his hand. The dash is lightning quick and acts as a sort of counter. When a special input is entered, Rock travels farther with more force behind his attack, dealing more damage and gaining more invulnerability upon startup.
Side Special (Backwards): Crack Counter. Rock prepares himself for an enemy attack, holding his arms close. If an enemy hits him, Rock will unleash a stationary version of the Crack Shoot attack. The attack has alright knockback and good damage, but a special input allows it to be followed by a smaller and weaker Crack Shoot that knocks opponents into the air slightly.
Up Special: Rising Tackle. Rock leaps up into the air with his legs facing the sky, spinning around rapidly while doing so. While it doesn’t get him that far up, the move is good for doing damage to those right above you. The move has the same special input as Terry’s, but is slightly slower to make up for a boost in power.
Down Special: Shinkuu Nage. Rock holds his palm out; in this state, any physical attack will be halted by Rock as he throws his opponent overhead behind him. While not doing too much damage, its a move that's easy to follow into; in addition, a special input gives the throw more power overall.
Input Special 1: Shining Knuckle. When Rock is at over 100%, Rock can execute ↓ ↘ → ↓ ↘ → + A or ↓ → ↓ → + A to activate Shining Knuckle, allowing him to dash forwards to deal multiple hits to a foe. The initial strike does more damage than the other hits, but each hit adds up and can end up in a K.O. if the opponent’s damage is high enough. If Rock misses an opponent, he’s vulnerable for a good few frames.
Input Special 2: Raging Storm. When Rock is at over 100%, Rock can execute ↓ ↘ → ↓ ↘ → + B or ↓ → ↓ → + B to activate Raging Storm. Rock shoves his hands on the ground and creates a pillar of energy around him, doing massive damage to anyone right next to him. The power at the center is similar to a bomb item, but the effect is weaker if a fighter touches the top of it first.
Final Smash: Neo Deadly Rave. Rock enacts his own version of Geese’s Deadly Rave attack, slamming into an opponent with Shining Knuckle while his fist is covered in blue/purple energy. Rock then launches into a rapid series of punches and kicks before finishing off with a large energy-powered projectile that sends Rock’s target flying. At high percents, this can easily K.O. anyone unfortunate enough to be in Rock’s path.
|
|
Name: Cuphead
Debut: Cuphead (2017)
The more mischievous of the two container cranium kiddos, Cuphead joins the fray in his signature 1930’s cartoon style! Cuphead is a master of vertical and horizontal movement; while slow, his dash makes him temporarily invincible at the cost of no damage, he has a unique “Air Special” that allows him to parry, he can get serious air in most situations...Cuphead’s got you covered on all bases!
|
Neutral Special: Peashooter. Cuphead snaps his fingers together and shoots out multiple shots of energy in a straight line, disappearing across the screen if it doesn’t hit anything. The attack itself is incredibly weak but can fire multiple times without the opponent flinching; however, it can’t be fired forever.
Air Special: Parry. Instead of being able to use his neutral special in the air, Cuphead gains an entirely unique “Air Special” in the form of his iconic parry ability. When pressing B in the air, Cuphead is able to slap anything underneath him, acting as a sort spike while giving Cuphead extra air time overall. Don’t worry, though; he can still use every other attack in the air!
Side Special: Roundabout. Cuphead fires a single projectile that functions like a boomerang. The blast moves forward before coming around over Cuphead’s cup head, flying off into the distance. Only one shot can be fired off at once, but the damage done on both of it’s trips is pretty decent for the projectile it is.
Up Special: Plane Crazy. Cuphead briefly turns into his airplane form and performs a shuttle loop-like motion in the air, turning back into his regular cup form upon the loop concluding. If the B button is pressed at the peak of the loop, Cuphead is able to fire out small bullets straight up into the air before reverting.
Down Special: Chaos Orbit. Cuphead snaps his fingers and creates four green stars that begin to circle around him, protecting him from melee and projectiles attacks. Cuphead has to snap his finger four times if he wants all four stars, but can stop whenever he wants and end up with one to four stars to protect him.
Final Smash: Energy Beam. Cuphead rushes towards the other side of the screen and jumps up before enacting his super move known as Energy Beam. Now spinning and aiming his head horizontally, Cuphead fires out a large beam of energy across the stage that massively damages anyone in its path. The beam can’t be dodged out of and launches anyone caught in off in the direction their back was facing.

Debut: Chrono Trigger (1995)
A young man from 1000 AD, Crono is a silent yet strong fighter who went on a time-traveling odyssey with his friends. Crono is a fast character, able to deal hits and dodge them quickly.

While relying on his blade for all attacks, Crono uses it in interesting ways, often applying elemental effects for extra damage.
|
Neutral Special: Cyclone Spin. Crono, holding his sword out by the hilt, spins around twice in a circle. While performing the attack, Crono is able to be moved in a similar fashion to the Ice Climbers, the main difference being that Crono can shove his sword downs with the press of the B button. This action creates a small shockwave around the sword, dealing extra damage while canceling the attack itself.
Side Special: Lightning Strikes. Crono holds out his sword as the B button and control stick are held in unison, rumbling thunder being heard in the background. Once the player lets go of the B button, Crono slashes his sword, kncoking any up-close opponents straight into the path of a lightning bolt, doing double the damage in a small amount of time. If both miss, the lightning stuns the floor, but nothing else happens.
Up Special: Barrage of Blades. Crono wildly whips around his sword, rising upwards with each individual swing. The direction the sword moves in obviously extends Crono's hitbox, but the sword's position has different effects depending on it's position when it hits a foe. The foe is able to fly across, down, or above into the air depending on how high their percentages are, some directions spiking in the air when enemies are at high percentages.
Down Special: Shadow Cleave. Crono crouches down before leaping straight into the air in an arc formation. Crono is followed by a series of after-images, raising his sword into the air before slamming it back down. The sword itself has a sweet spot at the very tip, doing a substantially larger amount of damage than the regular sword on it's own.
Final Smash: Luminaire. Crono calls upon close friends Marle and Lucca before performing an attack known as Luminaire. A green aura surrounds all three of them as it grows, drawing in more and more energy before exploding. The explosion causes the area around Crono to flash white before revealing who took damage and green sparkles shining around Crono, Marle and Lucca disappearing right after. Luminaire is able to kill foes who are over 100%.

She delivers more hard-hitting attacks at the cost of her speed and reaction time.
|

Name: Polar Knight
Debut: Shovel Knight (2014)
Shovel Knight’s former friend, the cold and brooding Polar Knight, has made a surprise appearance in the world of Smash.

Down Special: Snowball. Polar Knight kicks a large snowball across the stage. While the ball itself is somewhat slow, it takes a few hits to destroy it and can deal pretty decent damage upon touching a foe.
Final Smash: Stranded Ship. Polar Knight halts the action and calls upon his home, the Stranded Ship. The wrecked vessel falls from the sky and lands on the poor souls Polar Knight caught in the attack, crushing them as chilly winds and wooden debris fly out from the impact.

Name: Spinal
Debut: Killer Instinct (1994)
An undead pirate turned Ultratech agent, Spinal’s insanity will stop at nothing in order to reach his goal: the Mask of the Ancients. In Smash Bros., Spinal is able to gain more strength via stringing combos together with grabs, throws, and his other attacks to gain skulls. Up to three skulls can be on-screen at once and allow him to boost the power of his special moves for a turn.
|
Neutral Special: Searing Skull. Spinal launches a green skull-shaped projectiles towards his foes. With one skull, it shoots low on the ground. With two, it shoots in a straight up in the air. With three, it fires like a rocket and tries to hit from above.
Side Special: Bone Shaker. Spinal raises his shield and rushes forward, damaging anyone in his path. The amount of damage Spinal does depends on how far he is from a foe, with three skulls allowing him to phase through small projectiles.
Up Special: Skeleport. Spinal disappears into a portal and pops out in a different location. The amount of skulls Spinal has allows him to move higher or farther, each skull enhancing the effects of the attack.
Down Special: Power Devour. Spinal raises his shield and is able to absorb small projectiles like Clay Pigeons and Din’s Fire. With these items absorb, the power of his shield is increased, but is only able to absorb three projectiles.
Final Smash: Mask of the Ancients. Spinal gets his hands on the treasure he’s been searching for; the Mask of the Ancients. After putting on the mask, he launches into a frenzy of powerful attacks using his undead powers, pirate motifs, cutlass, and shields, ending it off with one final swipe of his cutlass.

Name: Great Maccao
Debut: Monster Hunter Generations (2015)
While seemingly a random pick, the Great Maccao represents the primal animal-based instinct side of the Monster Hunter series. Easily of the heaviest fighters in the game, the Great Maccao has very little options in the air at the cost of being a real threat on the ground, using various kicks and the rest of its body to put some real pressure onto its more mindful foes.
|
Neutral Special: Maccao Kick. The Great Maccao, with the press of the B button, ends up on it’s tail and kicks twice if the button is pressed twice more. If a foe is hit by the second kick, they get knocked back farther.
Side Special: Wyvern Thrust. The Great Maccao, stationary, charges up an attack using its back. When the attack is unleashed, the creature thrusts its body in a vertical line, clobbering anything in its way as it gets back up on its feet.
Up Special: Dragon Lunge. The Great Maccao pulls its arms, legs, and head back in midair before lunging in a diagonal line upwards. While powerful if the attack lands, one wrong move can cost you your stocks.
Down Special: Rage. The Great Maccao jumps up slightly and slams back down three times, creating shockwaves around it that grow slightly bigger with each return. The attack ends in a vicious roar from the beast, returning to its normal state.
Final Smash:Rise of the Maccao’s. The Great Maccao lets out a screech as it calls upon smaller Maccao’s to help it out. All of these Maccao’s begin to rapidly attack a single opponent, kicking and biting that them before the Great Maccao delivers a final kick, ending the attack.

Name: Django
Debut: Boktai: The Sun Is in Your Hand (2003)
Django is the current Solar Boy and wielder of the Gun Del Sol, a gun that uses the power of the sun as energy. In Smash Bros., Django’s main gimmick is sunlight; the more he’s absorbed, the more power he has for his special moves. Using these moves drains sunlight, however, with sunlight able to be earned slowly over time or quickly recharged via his down special.
|
Neutral Special: Sol Shot. Django fires a single blast of solar energy out of the Gun Del Sol. The attack can be repeated over and over again with a catch; the gun will overheat eventually, causing Django to take major damage if he doesn’t stop. With more sunlight, the blasts increase in power.
Side Special: Solar Sword. Django pulls the Solar Sword out from seemingly nowhere, reeling back as the sword prepares to strike. Once the attack is executed, Django rushes forwards with the Solar Sword pointing outwards, stabbing anyone in his path. With more sunlight, the blade shines brightly and does more damage.
Up Special: Rising Sun. Django, surrounded in the power of the sun, leaps up into the air before beginning to fall back down. The sunlight stays around him for awhile, damaging anyone who touches it, but eventually disappears and leaves him helpless. With more sunlight, the shield stays for a slightly longer time.
Down Special: Recharge. Django stops and raises the Gun Del Sol to the sky, causing it to absorb sunlight. The TRC meter near his character icon shows how much sunlight the weapon has, with larger amounts of sunlight giving Django’s specials a buff for a short time.
Final Smash: Sol Trance. Django fuses with Otenko and becomes Sol Django, rushing at an enemy before enacting Sol Prominence, a move that delivers repeated kicks before using Sol Flare, spinning around in a circle before a final kick is delivered. A purely visual TRC meter sits in the corner, draining as the attack goes on before the two unfuse.

|
Name: Rayman
Debut: Rayman (1995)
The Limbless Wonder, after years of ALMOST making it, has finally entered the fray! Rayman’s entirely body is made up of projectiles, allowing him to have some of the longest ranged attacks in the game. He’s a rather tricky character to use, relying on odd projectiles and the player’s wits to survive whatever battles he’s a part of.
|
Neutral Special: Wind-Up. Rayman winds up a limb and prepares to launch it, the limb coming back like a boomerang. If the L-stick is used when charging the attack, Rayman launches a different limb; just holding B uses his heads, flicking it to the side uses his torso, moving it up moves his head, and holding it down brings in his feet.
Side Special: Lockjaw. Rayman equips a bear trap-like weapon around his fist, pulling said fist back before pushing the trap forward. The trap is attached to a chain and launches forward, latching onto an opponent and pulling Rayman forward if the weapon lands. If it doesn’t land, the trap retracts and Rayman groans slightly.
Up Special: Propellor Hair. Rayman’s hair begins to spin around like helicopter blades, slowing him down in the air as he makes a slow descent. The blades themselves can damage opponents who deliberately get close to them, but it’s much more of a recovery rather than an attack.
Down Special: Rabbid. Rayman grabs a Rabbid by the ears and pulls it out of the ground. The Rabbid itself is random; a screaming Rabbid runs up to opponents and clobbers them, a Rabbid with a plunger gun shoots said plunger and disappears, and a Peach Rabbid takes a selfie next to a nearby foe and stuns them for a brief period of time.
Final Smash: Moskito’s Revenge. Rayman hops on Moskito, the large insect sucking up any nearby opponents and flying through the clouds. A cutscene then plays where Moskito shoots the opponents out of its nose, acting as a projectile as they slam against enemy forces and take high damage. The cutscene then ends as Rayman and the others return to the stage.

Name: Barbara
Debut: Rayman Legends (2013)
The princess of the forest and one of many sisters, Barbara makes her playable debut in the world of Super Smash Bros.! In Smash, she functions as a fusion of Rayman and Echidna, taking aspects from both of them to create a playstyle befitting of the warrior herself. As a character, she’s slower than Rayman with more power to boot.
|
Neutral Special: Wind-Up. Barbara pulls back her axe and thrusts it forwards, the axe reaching its horizontal peak before zipping back to her. Unlike Rayman’s move, the axe deals much more damage than his limbs at the cost of speed, the attack coming out slower due to the bulk of the axe.
Side Special: Axe Rush. Barbara rushes forwards, the blades of her axe in front of her as she does so. If she makes contact with a foe, she “swooshes” the axes in front of them and ends up with the axe behind her, leaving her open to other attacks. The move is functionally similar to Echidna’s with the added power of Barbara’s weapon.
Up Special: Winged Helmet. Barbara’s small wings on her helmet start to flap, slowing her down in the air as she descends slowly. Unlike Rayman’s attack, Barbara’s variant doesn’t do damage against people who touch her, but in return, she’s able to go much faster and evade death at a much brisker pace.
Down Special: Counter Swipe. Barbara raises her axe to her chest, preparing for an upcoming attack. If the attack hits her, she’ll thrust her axe behind her before sweeping it at the opponent, knocking them back as she stays still. Unlike Echidna’s same attack, the attack takes a little more time to come out in exchange for more damage.
Final Smash: Medieval Dragon. Barbara hops upon the Medieval Dragon, flying into the background as the dragon begins to spew fire. Each fireball that hits the stage gets progressively bigger and bigger, eventually resulting in a large stream of fire cutting through the stage, burning anyone who touches it. After this, Barbara hops off and the dragon flies away.

Name: Meryl
Debut: Oddity (202X)
One of the main characters of the upcoming indie game Oddity, Meryl is a young girl from the town of La Folia, using her psychic abilities and her future sight to duke it out. While her moveset is based on pre-release information from Oddity, it’s also heavily influenced by characters from the Earthbound series, giving her a mix of projectile moves, a tether grab up special, and a Shulk-like counter to boot.
|
Neutral Special: Heat VOX. Meryl unleashes a fire projectile from her hand, the fire quickly shooting out and doing minimal fire damage overall. If the first attack connects, however, she can quickly follow it up with a second blast, doing more fire damage. It’s rather easy to avoid, but can keep opponents locked in place if they aren’t careful.
Side Special: Thunder VOX. While an up special for other Earthbound characters, Meryl shoots out a large ball of electricity from her open palm, the ball gaining speed as it travels. It only goes in a straight line and is fairly predictable, but does good damage at high percents and stun damage at low percents. Since they move slow at first, it’s also good for stage control.
Up Special: Jump Whip. Meryl pulls out her jump rope out of seemingly thin air and lashes it at a 45 degree angle. If she catches onto a ledge, she’s pulled to safety almost immediately, kicking her legs to try and get back up. If she catches an opponent, however, she throws the jump rope down on the ground; while similar to Joker’s up special, it focuses on damage rather than pulling anyone close to her.
Down Special: Future Sight. Meryl braces herself for an upcoming attack - if she’s hit in this state, she uses her psychic powers to lift the opponent high up into the air. This attack can be used to end an opponent at extremely high percents and punishes those who get reckless hard, but if Meryl fails to execute the attack, she takes greater damage than she would normally.
Final Smash: The Gang. Meryl calls upon Travis, Floyd, and Leo to help her out in battle. Meryl locks the opponent in place with her cognitive powers before Floyd strikes them with a rake, Leo fires Beam VOX repeatedly, and Travis hits them over and over with a baseball bat. Meryl finishes the attack by having the gang flee before slamming her foe into the ground, resulting in massive damage.

Name: Thanos
Debut: Invincible Iron Man #55 (1973)
The Mad Titan, Thanos, has made his way into the world of Smash Bros., bringing infinite power with him. Thanos has the ability to rewind time via the Time Stone, allowing him to recover from most attacks...with a lot of cooldown to compensate for the sheer power of it. All of his attacks can catch a fighter off-guard, all with variations on unique side effects.
|
Neutral Special: Reality Check. Thanos delivers a single punch that, due to the Reality Stone, has various random effects. One punch can poison a fighter while the other can trap them in a bubble, leaving them open to other attacks while ascending upwards.
Side Special: Power of Earth. Thanos lifts chunks of dirt and rock out from behind him before launching them forwards. The attack can be titled at the cost of standing still for longer.
Up Special: Travel Delays. Thanos disappears into thin air and reappears via the Space Stone's power, coming out from a blue portal. If a fighter tries to damage Thanos while the portal is active, the portal will force them to take damage.
Down Special: Mad Titan's Strike. Thanos slams the Infinity Gauntlet onto the ground, creating purple shockwaves that spread out around him. The shockwaves toss opponents up into the air and leave them open to more attacks from Thanos.
Final Smash: Infinite Power. Thanos, using the full might of the Infinity Gauntlet, leaps up in the air and pulls down Titan's moon from the background, creating fiery meteors that can hit fighters and the stage while dealing out massive damage.

Name: Robot Jones
Debut: Whatever Happened to Robot Jones? (2002)
Robot Electro Jones, a relatively obscure KX-8 model of robot, has finally made a major reappearance ever since his debut in 2002! In Smash, Robot Jones wields the Data Log Entry mechanic, a move which allows him to copy the stats of whatever fighter he’s duking it out with until he takes enough damage for the trick to wear off. Other than that, Jones is a technical fighter with a knack for non-traditional weapons.
|
Neutral Special: Wonder Cube. Robot Jones grabs a Wonder Cube and begins to shuffle the parts around. The attack requires holding down the button and releasing at the right time, the cube being thrown and exploding into pieces upon contact. Holding down the button for too long will result in Jones going nuts over trying to solve the cube, taking a bit of damage.
Side Special: Data Log Entry. Robot Jones scans an opponent from head to toe, the attack doing extremely minimal damage with a twist; scanning a foe allows Robot Jones to inherit their very same stats. Depending on the fighter, Jones can increase his speed, weight, jumping abilities, strength, and more.
Up Special: Growth Spurt. Robot Jones extends his legs, making himself taller while propelling the rest of his body high up into the air. The legs return to normal after a short time. If an opponent is under Jones when his legs stretch, the move spikes them and sends them up into the air.
Down Special: Hall Monitor. Robot Jones crouches, a bucket appearing on top of his head. The move is a counter; if an opponent hits Jones in this state, the bucket is flung in their direction, appearing on the ground as an item if it doesn’t hit anyone while dealing decent damage if it does hit.
Final Smash: Help From My Friends! Robot Jones calls upon Socks, Cubey, and Mitch to attack whichever opponent he’s caught in the attack. All of them deliver various attacks and 80’s material to dish out real damage, Jones himself ending the attack with a laser blast aimed straight at his target and all four boys yelling “ZOMBIES!” as their target goes soaring.

Side Special (Swordfighter): Slash Launcher. The Mii charges up an attack before unleashing it, traveling across the stage with their sword forwards.
Side Special (Gunner): Mii-ssile. The Mii fires off a small missile at opponents, heading straight towards whoever it's in front of.

Down Special (Athlete): Curling Stone. The Mii pushes a curling stone along the stage, sending it at a high speed before it slows down and disappears.
Final Smash (Brawler): Omega Blitz. The Mii punches their opponent once before launching into a flurry of martial art attacks and finishing off with yet another punch, sending their opponents crashing into the ground.
Final Smash (Swordfighter): Sword From The Heavens. The Mii sticks their sword up towards the sky, causing a larger sword made of light to come crashing down from above and demolish anyone in it's immediate path.
Final Smash (Gunner): Full Blast. The Mii leaps up and fires a large beam of energy across the stage, obliterating everything in it's path before concentrating into a thinner beam, then sizzling out.
Final Smash (Athlete): Volleybomb. The Mii jumps in the air, volleyball in hand, and hits it down onto the stage below with the strength of millions. The ball causes an explosion, damaging any players in the it's range.
