'''Idle poses''' (sometimes referred to as '''idle animations''', and referred to as '''Wait''' internally in all games since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'') are minor, mainly nonconsequential animations that play at random if a character stands still for a length of time. | '''Idle poses''' (sometimes referred to as '''idle animations''', and referred to as '''Wait''' in internally in all games since ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Prior to ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', this also applied to [[Link]]. | ||

*Some characters have an animation that actually is part of their regular standing animation, but are often mistaken for idle poses. Unlike idle poses, they play at regular intervals instead of randomly (and they can be seen in the character customization screen on both 3DS and Wii U versions, or by holding a item, where idle poses never play). Some examples include {{SSBU|Daisy}}, {{SSBU|Sheik}} and {{SSBU|Roy}}. | *Some characters have an animation that actually is part of their regular standing animation, but are often mistaken for idle poses.

**In some cases, this animation is used to transition into the default idle animation, either from their previous one (in the case of Sheik) or their base character's (in the case of Daisy, Roy, and other [[clone]]s). Other characters, such as Chrom, {{SSBU|Dark Samus}}, {{SSBU|Mythra}} and Mii Gunner (''SSB4'' only) have separate animations for this purpose. | **In some cases, this animation is used to transition into the default idle animation, either from their previous one (in the case of Sheik) or their base character's (in the case of Daisy, Roy, and other [[clone]]s).

*Since ''Brawl'', six characters have not had the traditional two idle poses, those being [[Peach]], [[Zelda]] (prior to ''Ultimate''), [[Jigglypuff]], {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} (''Brawl'' only), [[Byleth]], and [[Steve]]. Peach has four, the most of any fighter; both Zelda and Pokémon Trainer had three before losing one in ''Ultimate'', both characters are the only fighters to lose an idle pose; Jigglypuff and Byleth only have one (though in Byleth's case it differs between the male and female variants, effectively resulting in two); Steve does not have any idle poses at all. Jigglypuff technically did not have an idle pose before ''Ultimate'', as its idle pose was simply part of its regular animation, but it has always had two identical idle poses programmed in. | *Since ''Brawl'', six characters have not had the traditional two idle poses, those being [[Peach]], [[Zelda]] (prior to ''Ultimate''), [[Jigglypuff]], {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} (''Brawl'' only), [[Byleth]], and [[Steve]].
