==Origin==
==Origin==
Loosely based on the famous folkloric Japanese thief {{s|wikipedia|Ishikawa Goemon}}, Goemon is portrayed as a fiery young man from Edo (present-day Tokyo), with a sense to always fight for what is right. Much like his historical inspiration, he was originally a noble thief, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, thus amassing a bounty which attracted samurai and ninja to target him. Goemon soon turned into a normal hero, defending Edo from various threats, ranging from pirates to space aliens, leading to the Lord and Princess Yuki to pardon him. Goemon uses a variety of tools and abilities in his adventures, including a giant {{s|wikipedia|kiseru}} he swings as a weapon, throwable {{s|wikipedia|Ryō}} coins which can be enhanced with fire magic, a chain pipe (which acts similarly to a grappling hook), and the ability to push large blocks. He can also use a Triton Shell to summon the gigantic fighting robot Goemon Impact, constructed by the Wise Old Man, a brilliant inventor. Goemon's allies include the hammer-wielding ninja Ebisumaru, the sword-wielding kunoichi Yae, and the bomb-throwing robot ninja Sasuke, who was also built by the Wise Old Man.

In the Mii Costume reveal trailer, the Goemon Mii is accompanied by a female {{SSBU|Corrin}}, {{SSBU|Pit}} and {{SSBU|Dr. Mario}}. This references Yae, Sasuke and Ebisumaru, Goemon's companions and other playable characters in many of his games, including ''{{s|wikipedia|Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon}}'' on the Nintendo 64. The [[News]] blurb for the Goemon costume recommends using [[Shuriken of Light]] to approximate Goemon's Ryō coins.
