Im kinda confused because some people say this and that and im not sure <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:203.58.25.188|203.58.25.188]] ([[User talk:203.58.25.188|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/203.58.25.188|contribs]]) </small>

Well, it's sorta like this:

Back when I was a young boy, we only had a washboard, and a very thin cow. So one day, my pap tells me that he bought me a video game system he afforded by selling crack in the slums of Midgar.  In it was Super Smash Brothers Melee.  But in order to play it, I had to run some crack for the Sabres gang, your typical urban wasp mafia.  To make a long story short, after I defeated the Goat king and saved Princess Tesla from the fires of eternal doom, Pope Pious XIII explained to me over dinner with Nelson Mandela that a clone is sorta like the moon.  That was a deep analogy I hardly think anybody alive (save, perhaps, Tony Blair) could understand. So I'm gonna cut to the chase:

Melee clones:
*Marth/Roy
*Falco/Fox
*Link/Young Link
*Captain Falcon/Ganondorf
*Pikachu/Pichu
*Mario/Doctor Mario/Luigi

Brawl clones:
There's some controversy about this one.  Some people on this wiki think there are no clones in Brawl. I'd say there probably aren't in a technical sense, particularly not by the standards of a strict Melee clone.  Some characters share obvious similarities, like Mario and Luigi, Link and Toon Link, and even character doublets like Sheik/ZSS and Charizard/Bowser. The best answer is there aren't strict clones in Brawl, but some characters may be classified by a standard that solves this apparent crisis of no strict clones, yet similarities.  The proposed standard is the semi-clone, characters that share a number of moves (I believe the convention is ~33% similarity for semi-clone, and <50% for a clone).  Take from that what you will.

I think you hit it right on the nail 13375poolR. You state everything correctly. I wholeheartedly support your post. <font face="calibri" size="3">[[User:SapphireKirby777|<span style="color:blue">SapphireKirby</span>]]</font>[[User Talk:SapphireKirby777|<span style="color:silver">'''777 ~Behold! -.-'''</span>]] 18:13, 13 March 2009 (UTC)


[[Talk:Clone]]
try this page, duh. 
What is a "strict" clone anyway? I don't see why Toon Link is any less of a clone than Melee's Ganondorf was. - [[User:Gargomon251|Gargomon251]] ([[User talk:Gargomon251|talk]]) 21:24, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
