*According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], the development team considered having Rex fighting alongside Pyra and Mythra, but this was decided against due to the difficulty the team had with the {{SSBU|Ice Climbers}} in contexts such as [[8-Player Smash]]. Sakurai specifically cited the far more complicated design and abilities of Pyra and Mythra compared to the relatively simple appearance and moveset of the Ice Climbers.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeDBCgDSiB4</ref> Another issue was getting both characters to move at the same time which the development team found was impossible to do; similarly, it was deemed too difficult to implement Rex as the main fighter with Pyra behind him. This ultimately led to Rex being reduced to a smaller supporting role and Mythra being included along with Pyra with the two being able to [[swap]] instead.<ref>https://www.nintendoenthusiast.com/sakurai-considered-rex-and-pyra-as-a-duo-character-for-super-smash-bros-ultimate/</ref> | *According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], the development team considered having Rex fighting alongside Pyra and Mythra, but this was decided against due to the difficulty the team had with the {{SSBU|Ice Climbers}} in contexts such as [[8-Player Smash]].

*Pyra's design has been adjusted from her original appearance; she wears an additional pair of translucent tights under her shorts, and an additional gold plate covers the top of her butt. Unlike Mythra's similarly adjusted design, this change was not present in either her base game spirit or as an alternate costume in her home game, nor does it even apply to her new fighter spirit. This change could possibly be the result of censorship to comply with the game's CERO A rating in Japan, as with comparable changes made to the designs of | *Pyra's design has been adjusted from her original appearance; she wears an additional pair of translucent tights under her shorts, and an additional gold plate covers the top of her butt.

However, Pyra's spirits are an exception. | ||
