==Origin==
==Origin==
Shantae serves as the Guardian Genie of Scuttle Town, residing in a small lighthouse by the sea where she can spot incoming ships. However, she is initially afraid of the citizens discovering her Half-Genie status. In the original ''Shantae'', she chases the villainous Risky Boots, in order to stop her plans. Along the way to stop Risky Boots, she receives aid from her friends Bolo and Sky, her uncle Mimic, as well as a young zombie girl named Rottytops. Shantae is unable to stop Risky Boots from using four elemental stones to create a turbine to power her war-machine known as the "All-Purpose Steam-Powered Tinkerbot" (or "Tinkertank" for short). After destroying the Tinkertank, Shantae duels with Risky and defeats her, escaping from the collapsing island and offered a chance to enter the Genie Realm, the cost of which being that she can never return to Scuttle Town again. Shantae declines and continues her work serving as the town's Guardian Genie.

*Like her fellow indie costumes [[Sans]] and [[Cuphead]], ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' marks Shantae’s first 3D appearance in video games. However unlike Sans and Cuphead, only Shantae’s hair and body are 3D modeled.

*After the official release of the costume, ''Shantae'' creator Matt Bozon [https://twitter.com/mrbozon/status/1410075310469513216 shared a Shantae Mii] created by him and his wife, Erin Bozon (who designed the character), on Twitter.
**Though unlike them who have their reveal trailers contrast them against the black background, as well as the ''Ultimate'' logo being inverted, the background is normal like the others do because of the ''Shantae'' logo being colorful.

**He would later upload [https://twitter.com/MrBozon/status/1410089460620947457 a second Mii], changing the Mii's mouth to a smile, and adding a voice.
