She is the seventh [[Downloadable content (SSBU)|downloadable character]] in ''Ultimate'' and the first downloadable character in {{h2|Downloadable content (SSBU)|Fighters Pass Vol. 2}}. An {{uv|ARMS}} character was announced to be playable as part of Challenger Pack 6 on March 26th, 2020 during a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubRf4zyEvG4 Nintendo Direct Mini]. However, it was not revealed that it would be Min Min until June 22nd, 2020 during a ''[[Mr. Sakurai Presents]]''. Min Min was released as part of Challenger Pack 6 on June 29th, 2020 (June 30th, 2020 in Europe and Asia), and is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #76]]. | ||

Although Min Min's physique is athletic and slender, the | Although Min Min's physique is athletic and slender, her enormous ARMS and the accessories attached to them grant her above-average [[weight]], weighing as much as {{SSBU|Link}}, {{SSBU|Yoshi}}, {{SSBU|Captain Falcon}}, and {{SSBU|Mii Gunner}}. Her base stats are true to this weight class as well, with an average [[walk]]ing speed, the twentieth slowest [[dash]]ing speed, and the sixth slowest [[air speed]]. As a playable character from ''ARMS'', Min Min's playstyle can be considered a hybrid of {{SSBU|Little Mac}} and {{SSBU|Simon}}'s, with an emphasis on both strong [[punch]]es and keeping foes at a distance. However, while her punches have the most melee [[range]] of any attack in the game, their hitboxes are strictly located on her ARMS' "fists". Altogether, this means that in comparison to other characters dependent on [[spacing]] (such as {{SSBU|Marth}} or {{SSBU|Corrin}}), much stricter attack positioning is crucial to keeping distance from opponents. | ||
Min Min's biggest strength is arguably the sheer versatility of her moveset. Her [[down special]], [[ARMS Change]], allows her to swap between | Min Min's biggest strength is arguably the sheer versatility of her moveset. Her [[down special]], [[ARMS Change]], allows her to swap between three ARMS which can be equipped to her right ARM: the Ramram, which is not as powerful as her other ARMS but can be angled in a wider arc, the Megawatt, which lacks in speed and range but compensates with high power, and the Dragon, which can fire a laser if the attack button for Min Min's respective ARM is held down. ARMS Change does not incur any [[ending lag]], allowing her to swap her right ARM instantly as needed, allowing for a potential surprise attack. Min Min can uniquely attack with one ARM and use the other one mid-attack (and can do so in entirely different directions), as the A button triggers attacks with her left ARM, while the B button triggers attacks with her right. This effect also applies to her [[forward smash]] attacks, granting her a distinctly high damage dispensing ceiling. While this effectively deprives her of any traditional [[Neutral special|neutral]] or [[side special]] as used by other characters, this gives her a very strong mix-up game, as she can use both ARMS to catch foes off guard before attacking, and also cover a myriad of tech chasing options. She can also [[jump]] mid-punch, giving her a decent ground-to-air game, although this is mostly effective when Ramram is active, due to its vertical coverage. | ||
In the air, Min Min's [[Forward aerial|forward]] and [[back aerial]]s retain the same function as they do on the [[ground]], though she uniquely has the ability to perform forward smashes while airborne. This allows her to sport [[KO]] potential even in air-to-air engagements, as well as giving her additional unique landing options. Her [[neutral aerial]] spins the ARM currently equipped to Min Min's right ARM in a circular motion, which can be reliably spaced and used as a defensive option. Uniquely, her airborne neutral special is nearly identical to her neutral aerial, while utilizing her currently equipped right ARM instead of her left. Although the different ARMS sport different traits in terms of startup, speed and active [[frame]]s, they all have the same amount of [[landing lag]]. The Megawatt version of Min Min's airborne neutral special is notably capable of KOing, while the Ramram version can [[combo]] into itself at low percentages, and lead into forward and back aerial combos, which in some circumstances may lead to early KOs. | |||
One of Min Min's most atypical but valuable perks is her ability to keep [[pressure]] and potentially start combos far from harm's way. Being able to consecutively string multiple tilts and forward smashes into one another allows Min Min to hit confirm into extreme amounts of damage from afar with a comparatively few amounts of hits. With the right precision and [[spacing]], Min Min can cause an onslaught of constant attacks that can combo into one another without any risk of retaliation, while continuously remaining in a position to do it again. This is especially dangerous when any character is offstage, as any who try to [[recovery|recover]] horizontally are at risk of being KO'd even at 0% thanks to the sheer range provided by Min Min's ARMS. While she is afforded safety from on-stage against horizontal recoveries, the speed of Min Min's attacks in the air grant her plenty of opportunities in [[edge-guard]]ing from off-stage as well, and [[ARMS Jump]] allows her to pursue and edgeguard opponents who recover high. Depending on the currently equipped ARM, Min Min can even beat out oncoming [[projectile]]s from characters attempting to pressure her from afar. The core of her security is from the inability to counter an ARM at mid to long-range in any way that would put her at risk, and no ARM nor any of their effects can be [[reflect]]ed. | |||
While punches comprise the bulk of her [[move]]set, she has a handful of kick-based attacks that also have utility. Her [[down tilt]] is a sliding kick that, despite its poor damage output, allows her to [[approach]] foes reliably due to its speed and distance covered, and it can also start combos. Her [[dash attack]] gives her a solid burst option given her lack in mobility, can lead to follow-ups at low percentages, and is able to [[cross-up]] [[shield]]s when used at close range. Her [[up aerial]] has a good horizontal range in front of her that makes it good for performing combos on landing, while her [[down aerial]] is decently strong and can function as a combo breaker if there is enough vertical distance. Her [[up smash]] and [[down smash]] have great power when [[Sweet spot (hitbox)|sweetspotted]], being very strong KO options. Both Min Min's up smash and [[up tilt]] have very fast startup, as well as great vertical range, giving her both a strong [[out of shield]] option and solid anti-air. Additionally, her up smash has the unique properties of sporting a reflector hitbox, which is active one frame before its attack hitbox, and has one persistent reflector hitbox in front of her for the duration of the move, as well as moving ones on her legs. Because of the reflector being applied to her up smash, she sports the fastest out of shield reflector in the game, and is able to cover both close-range approaches and point-blank projectile options. | |||
Min Min also has a strong [[grab]] game, with her grab having the second-longest reach of all grabs in the game and all of her [[throw]]s dealing at least 8%. Her [[forward throw]] can force opponents offstage and set up easy tech chase combos at lower percentages, her [[up throw|up]] and [[back throw]]s have strong KO potential, and her [[down throw]], despite its inability to start combos reliably, can still follow up if the opponent does not react accordingly. Throwing also has the benefit of giving her left Dragon ARM a boost in power. This [[charge]]d-up state lasts for 20 seconds, barring the sustaining of heavy [[knockback]], and gives her a damage and knockback boost on any attack made with her left Dragon ARM, including its laser. However, one key flaw with her grab is that it has the longest startup of any grab in the game, and considerable end lag if missed, rendering it a risky option to use in neutral and largely saved for landing and [[whiff]] [[punish]]ing. | |||
Despite all of Min Min's unique perks, her moveset does come with weaknesses. As her ARMS' [[hitbox]]es are located on her "fists", foes can easily close in on her if she makes a mistake in spacing or timing her punches. While the Ramram's wide curving arc can somewhat alleviate this, its hitboxes are rendered inactive during the last few frames of retraction, requiring her to properly move, time and alternate between ARMS in order to offset her vulnerability, giving her a notably high skill floor. Since this problem is not shared with other range-dependent fighters (such as {{SSBU|Shulk}}), this means that there are bound to be blind spots on Min Min's fist attacks, even against larger characters. | Despite all of Min Min's unique perks, her moveset does come with weaknesses.

One downside to Min Min's more streamlined playstyle is her relative lack of variance between individual moves. Lacking | One downside to Min Min's more streamlined playstyle is her relative lack of variance between individual moves. Lacking normal [[forward tilt]]s and relying on her forward smash, forward aerial and neutral moves means that Min Min's main moves are far more prone to [[Stale-move negation|staling]] than other characters. Even with the various ARMS to swap between, their counter-play remains relatively similar across all three. Many of her moves are meant for combat from much greater distances, and while she sports many close-range moves with fast startup as a last line of defense, they are generally plagued with notable end lag, making them highly committal and punishable if whiffed or blocked. This means that characters with high mobility are particularly difficult for Min Min to fight, especially if they have high damage-per-second or KO power, as she lacks tools to handle them up close as well as any easy way to keep them at bay without committing to high vulnerability [[read]]s. | ||
Min Min further suffers from her very poor disadvantage state. She has almost no moves to break out of disadvantage once she is in it, lacking any functional combo breakers outside of situational usage of down and neutral aerials. This, coupled with her slow [[fall speed]], makes her prone to getting [[juggling|juggled]]. Her [[up special]] has a long range as a [[tether recovery]], but will only work if Min Min is sufficiently close to | Min Min further suffers from her very poor disadvantage state. She has almost no moves to break out of disadvantage once she is in it, lacking any functional combo breakers outside of situational usage of down and neutral aerials. This, coupled with her slow [[fall speed]], makes her prone to getting [[juggling|juggled]]. Her [[up special]] has a long range as a [[tether recovery]], but will only work if Min Min is sufficiently close to a [[ledge]], which means that any stray [[aerial]] from any character may be enough to edge-guard and [[gimp]] her, even at surprisingly low percents. This is compounded by her abysmal air speed, which makes both recovering and avoiding repeated attacks all the more difficult. Finally, while she has more range to control and threaten with than any other character, she can occasionally struggle with being conditioned by opponents in the [[neutral game]]. Her up smash, despite uniquely acting as a reflector, is highly committal, making it an inferior option against certain projectile users such as {{SSBU|Mega Man}} or the [[Link]]s, as they can pressure her with multiple fast projectiles that her reflector is unable to account for. While her ARMS can beat out weaker projectiles, there are quite a few that either clank or have transcendent [[priority]], which forces her to play aggressively and risk slipping into her poor disadvantageous state. This issue is particularly exacerbated against characters who have reflectors of their own, and are able to reflect their own projectiles back at her. | ||
Min Min | Overall, Min Min is a character well equipped with unique tools and traits that have her play a hybrid gameplay style, incorporating elements of zoning as well as the aggressive usage of long-ranged attacks. Her fast overall frame data, strong anti-aerial prowess, and ability to alternate between attacks while retaining mobility make for a character who maintains a strong pressure game that can discombobulate opponents, allowing her to mix up her play from multiple angles in deceptive ways. Her ability to switch the traits of her attacks also gives her unique frame trapping and tech chasing capabilities, as well as a deadly edge-guarding game. This adds up to Min Min having a profound snowball effect whenever she gains advantage in battle. However, the combination of her precise hitboxes, sub-par disadvantage state, punishable frame data on select key moves, and high learning curve means that the player is going to have to have the ingenuity to master precision, proper conditioning, and reads in order to combat opponents who are capable of rushing her down, playing a stronger defensive game, or taking advantage of her blind spots. | ||
Because of the impact that [[COVID-19]] has had on competitive events around the world, Min Min's potential remains to be fully ascertained. Despite this, she has amassed a notable amount of players with strong competitive results in Japan - where offline tournaments have continued relatively unabated - potentially showing early signs of Min Min being a very strong contender at a top competitive level. | |||

In update 9.0.0, neutral infinite's finisher received [[transcendent priority]] as part of a near-universal buff. Following this, update 11.0.0 nerfed Min Min in a few ways. Forward smash's holding charge duration was shortened significantly, and the Dragon ARM's KO potential was toned down slightly due to its laser's base knockback being decreased. Aside from these changes, Min Min's air dodge gained noticeably more ending lag; previously, it was the second fastest in the game, but is now about average compared to the rest of the cast. | ||
Update 12.0.0 marginally improved neutral infinite by slightly enlarging its hitboxes, yet nerfed Min Min in a few ways. Up smash is 1 frame slower overall, and its sweetspot's KO potential was toned down slightly due to its knockback growth being decreased. In addition, [[ARM Hook]]'s tether detection was decreased by 2 frames, which causes Min Min to start her [[tether recovery]] slightly slower. | Update 12.0.0 marginally improved neutral infinite by slightly enlarging its hitboxes, yet nerfed Min Min in a few ways.

Most recently, update 13.0.1 adjusted Min Min’s jab reset animation to be consistent with the rest of the cast. Min Min was also nerfed in a few ways. Her neutral aerial was given more landing lag (2 extra frames on Ramram neutral aerial, and 3 extra frames on Megawatt and Dragon neutral aerials), her forward tilt and forward smash attacks deal less shield damage, and forward smash’s dragon laser has less active frames. These nerfs have lead to some of Min Min's more dominant options being marginally easier to punish, reducing her overall safety. | |||

|nairdesc=''Attack'': | |nairdesc=''Attack'': Rotates her left ARM around herself in a downward circular motion.<br/><br/>''Special:'' Rotates her right ARM around herself in a downward circular motion.<br/><br/>The Ramram variant is extremely fast and can be used in quick succession, allowing it to combo into itself without the need to land on the ground. The Megawatt variant is notorious for its high power, being able to KO under 100% near the top blast line. Lastly, the Dragon variant falls in between with a decent balance of speed and power, although it gains decent KO potential when powered up by a throw. One thing that all of the neutral aerial variants have in common is that they function as a versatile combo starter on landing; it can combo into down tilt, forward tilt/held neutral attack, dash attack, and even forward smash at low percentages. As of update 13.0.1, however, its higher landing lag makes these combos less consistent and thus riskier to perform. Due to its versatility, it is overall one of her most useful moves. | ||

As a result of her very unique traits and lopsided advantage and disadvantage states, the initial reception to the character was mixed; some players such as {{Sm|ESAM}} and {{Sm|Dabuz}} acclaimed her as one of the best characters in the game, pointing to her excellence in pressuring, zoning, tech-chasing and edgeguarding, while other players such as {{Sm|Marss}} pointed out her weaknesses against faster, air-based top-tier characters and even mid- to low-tiers. Due to the [[COVID-19]] pandemic being at its peak around the time of her release, especially in the West, much of the analysis over her qualities remained mostly theoretical for a long time. In Japan, where the offline meta managed to persist, Min Min saw more positive competitive impressions, courtesy of in-person tournament results from players such as {{Sm|Himo}}, {{Sm|Terra}}, and {{Sm|Mao}}. A notable turning point for the character came when {{Sm|ProtoBanham}} picked up the character as a co-main to great success, most notably using the character to secure victory in {{Trn|Kagaribi 4}} across multiple Top 64 sets - including Grand Finals - against several [[Fall 2019 PGRU]]'d players, making her the first [[Downloadable content (SSBU)|DLC]] character since {{SSBU|Joker}} to have won a [[supermajor]]. In the west, Dabuz embraced Min Min as an additional character in his main lineup, placing 3rd at {{Trn|Momentous}} predominantly using the character. These results have led to more people considering her a strong contender at a competitive level, with players such as {{Sm|Raito}} and {{Sm|Lunamado}} labeling her a high tier at minimum. Aside from her aforementioned strengths, her ability to play scrappy in close-quarters engagements with strong anti-airs, burst options, and out-of-shield options, on top of her her potent ground-to-air coverage and general mixup potential, has had many players believe that she offsets her weaknesses enough that she could even be in contention for top tier similarly to {{SSBU|R.O.B.}} or {{SSBU|Wolf}}. | |||
In the online metagame, Min Min has seen a lot of success: American players such as ESAM and {{Sm|Wrath}} employed her as a successful secondary in tournament bracket matches, while Japanese players {{Sm|Shuton}} and {{Sm|Pochi}} placed top 5 in the eleventh season of Japan's Wi-Fi ladder using Min Min.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/juddy_96/status/1294323108179070978|title=Smashmate Season 11 Final Standings}}</ref> Dabuz has seen consistently strong performance, including multiple top 8 placements at tournaments such as {{Trn|Smash Out Breast Cancer}}, {{Trn|Gaming For Tots}}, and Hungrybox's {{Trn|The Box: Juice Box}} series. Finally, Wi-Fi Warrior {{Sm|Peckham}} has also seen strong performances with the character, including 7th at {{Trn|Reset: Smash for RAINN}} and {{Trn|The Online Olympus II}} as well as 9th at {{Trn|The Box: Lunch Box 9}} and {{Trn|Super Galaxy Gambit x Collision}}. With these results, many players consider Min Min to be a strong character online. | |||

*According to [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] creator [[Masahiro Sakurai]], Min Min was originally going to lack any special moves. However, he reconsidered this and instead created the unique special moves for her in the spirit of ''ARMS''.<ref>[https://twitter.com/PushDustIn/status/1283431422905085953 PushDustIn on Twitter: "At first, he considered making the character without any special moves at all, but when he really considered it, he came up with something unique."]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/Sephazon/status/1283431741697306625 Robert Sephazon on Twitter: "When playing like this, Sakurai thinks this shows the spirit of “ARMS” where both arms have to be utilized simultaneously. This creates the feeling of “ARMS,” but in the style of Super Smash Bros. This is very important."]</ref> | |||
*Min Min is the first character added to represent a new [[universe]] in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series who is neither the poster character nor the default player character of their respective series. | |||
**According to Masahiro Sakurai, Min Min was selected as the playable ''ARMS'' fighter due to her being specifically requested by Kosuke Yabuki, the lead producer of ''ARMS''. In addition to confirming that Min Min is his favorite ''ARMS'' character via a special episode of Nintendo Minute,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSTcmnRp3kQ ARMS Master Class w/ Mr. Yabuki – Nintendo Minute]</ref> Yabuki further elaborated on Min Min's selection by saying that every fighter in ''ARMS'' is a protagonist. Prior to Yabuki's request, Sakurai also confirmed that he had narrowed the character choices down to Min Min and [[Ninjara]]. | |||
***Coincidentally, Min Min became the {{s|armsinstitute|Party Crash Bash}} Champion (even winning six Party Crashes overall), with Ninjara being the runner-up.<ref>[https://twitter.com/NintendoVS/status/1140673265989509120 Nintendo Versus on Twitter: "It's Min Min for the win win! After suffering defeat in an earlier #ARMS Party Crash, the queen of ramen returns to slay Ninjara in a heated rematch. She takes the #ARMS #PartyCrashBash championship and stands alone at the top!"]</ref> | |||
**Min Min is the first fighter to speak Mandarin Chinese, as well as the first fighter to speak a real-life language other than English or Japanese in all regions. | |||
**Min Min is the only DLC newcomer in any ''Super Smash Bros.'' game that originates from a new first-party series, as {{SSB4|Corrin}}, {{SSBU|Byleth}}, {{SSBU|Piranha Plant}}, and {{SSBU|Pyra}}/{{SSBU|Mythra}} are all from preexisting series ({{uv|Fire Emblem}}, {{uv|Mario}}, and {{uv|Xenoblade Chronicles}} respectively). | |||
**Min Min is the first DLC fighter in ''Ultimate'' to be exclusively female (as [[Banjo & Kazooie (SSBU)|Kazooie]] is paired with Banjo and only half of Byleth's {{SSBU|alternate costume}}s are female), and the second overall after {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. | |||
**Min Min is the first character in the series overall to have an aerial smash attack<!--While Robin's aerials change depending on whether or not they are initiated with the C-stick, that does not inherently make them aerial smash attacks-->, and the second to be able to walk during and jump out of forward tilts and neutral attacks, following {{SSBU|Mega Man}} and preceding {{SSBU|Steve}}. | |||
**Min Min is the first fighter since ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' to lack a unique [[side special]]. | |||
**Min Min is only fighter from a fighting game who does not automatically face an opponent in a 1v1 battle. | |||
*Min Min is the second: | |||
**Fighter that debuted in a [[Nintendo Switch]] title, following {{SSBU|Byleth}}. | |||
***Coincidentally, both characters' reveal trailers use cel-shaded CGI that resembles hand-drawn animation. | |||
**DLC fighter in ''Ultimate'' to use repurposed voice clips, following {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}. | |||
**DLC fighter in ''Ultimate'' not to have been revealed prior to her [[Mr. Sakurai Presents|presentation video]]'s release, following Byleth. Her series, however, was announced ahead of time. | |||
*Min Min appears in the beginning of her trailer in a waitress uniform, without her mask and with normal human arms and eyes. This design is unique for the trailer and has not been seen otherwise. | |||
**In ''ARMS'', fighters are never depicted without a mask with the exemptions being [[Mechanica]] (who lacks the ARMS ability) and {{s|armsinstitute|Helix}}, {{s|armsinstitute|Byte & Barq}}, and {{s|armsinstitute|Springtron}} (all of whom were artificially created). Additionally, they are always shown with spiral-shaped eyes, and their ARMS retain their coiled appearance [[armsinstitute:File:MinMinRamen.png|even when contracted into a human shape]]. [https://twitter.com/armsfan_eng/status/879127939115175936 A Tweet from the official ''ARMS'' Twitter account] explains that the masks are regulator devices that allow the user's ARMS to form into coils, and that removing the mask returns them to normal arms, which the depiction in the trailer aligns with. It is indicated elsewhere (in [https://twitter.com/armsfan_eng/status/879904769350844416 another Tweet] and [https://i.imgur.com/wK09fZJ.jpg in-game text] in the game's {{s|armsinstitute|Gallery}}) that removing the mask can cause the ARMS to switch forms unwillingly and become difficult to control, which is not depicted in the trailer. | |||
*Min Min and {{SSBU|Inkling}} are the only characters in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series to have had their [[universe|series]] debut on an [[wikipedia:eighth generation of video game consoles|eighth generation video game console]]. | |||
**Both characters are the only ones in ''Ultimate'' to represent new first-party universes. | |||
**Min Min, Inkling, {{SSBU|Terry}}, {{SSBU|Pyra}}/{{SSBU|Mythra}}, and {{SSBU|Kazuya}} are the only newcomers in ''Ultimate'' to have received a [[List of character posters|''SSB4''-style character poster]] to promote their inclusion as a playable character. | |||
*In the game's files, Min Min has unused animations copied from {{SSBU|Captain Falcon}}; specifically, the aerial and grounded [[Falcon Kick]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/Zeckemyro/status/1278532640891600897]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/Zeckemyro/status/1278532720168185856]</ref> This implies that she may have been developed using Captain Falcon as the basis. Coincidentally, Captain Falcon appears in Min Min's reveal trailer. | |||
**Additionally, datamining Min Min's script reveals that her dash attack has an unused [[reflection]] hitbox, in a similar vein to her up smash.<ref>[https://www.twitter.com/Meshima_/status/1280091688514383874]</ref> | |||
*Much like Terry, Min Min occasionally vocalizes while [[roll]]ing; however, it is difficult to notice as Min Min does not vocalize as loudly as Terry does, which is further compounded by the volume of accompanying sound effects. | |||
*When KO'd by reaching 0 HP during her final stock in [[Stamina Mode]], Min Min uses one of her heavy knockback voice clips instead of her standard KO voice clip. She shares this trait with {{SSBU|Mario}}, {{SSBU|Dr. Mario}} all vocal DLC fighters except for {{SSBU|Joker}}, {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}, and {{SSBU|Byleth}}'s Japanese voice. | |||
*Min Min is one of three characters to speak a phrase while being [[star KO]]'d, shouting "{{ja|哎呀!|Āi yā!}}" (''Oh no!''), the first two being {{SSBU|Pit}}, who says, "I never learned how to read!" and Byleth, who says, "My battle ends here!" | |||
**Unlike Pit and Byleth, Min Min says her star KO line in all versions of the game instead of just the English version. | |||
*Similarly to {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}}, {{SSBB|Mr. Game & Watch}}, and {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the UI shows Min Min's name as a single word ("MINMIN") when the game's [[language]] is set to Japanese. | *Similarly to {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}}, {{SSBB|Mr. Game & Watch}}, and {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the UI shows Min Min's name as a single word ("MINMIN") when the game's [[language]] is set to Japanese. | ||
* | *Min Min is the third DLC character in ''Ultimate'' to not have an alternate costume that changes the character's model, following Banjo & Kazooie and Terry and preceding Pyra/Mythra. | ||
*Each in-game render of Min Min features her with a different ARM weapon on her right arm: her primary spirit has the Megawatt ARM, her fighter spirit has the Dragon ARM, and her official Smash render has the Ramram ARM. | |||
*Min Min is the third DLC Fighters Pass fighter to appear in a CG portion of a trailer other than her own ({{SSBU|Kazuya}}'s trailer in this case, and later appears again in {{SSBU|Sora}}'s), followed by {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}} and [[Hero (SSBU)|Erdrick]] in Sephiroth's trailer. | |||
*If Min Min picks up an [[Assist Trophy]] whilst walking, she can continue walking with it until she stops. She, Mega Man, and Steve are currently the only characters who can walk with an Assist Trophy. Min Min can also jump and continue walking with an Assist Trophy if she lands during a forward or back aerial. | |||
