Her basic move set is the same as Peach's, but this princess has her own unique personality. She's known for being upbeat, energetic, and a bit of a tomboy.

  • Change Daisy has flower and petal effects for her attacks instead of hearts.
  • Change Daisy has different taunts and victory animations. Her intro is different as well.
  • Change Daisy's left hand is bent during her parasol descent, whilst's Peach's arm is straight.

Trivia

  • Despite utilizing one in her moveset, the only affiliation Daisy has with Toads - blue or otherwise - in the Mario games is in Mario Super Sluggers, where a Red Toad protects her after Bowser Jr. freezes her in place.
  • One of Daisy's victory animations is reminiscent of her celebration animation from Mario Golf: World Tour.
  • Daisy's pose for one of her unique animations matches promotional artwork of her first used for Mario Kart 7. It is unclear whether this is a taunt or an idle.
  • Daisy was the second newcomer announced for Ultimate. This marks only the second time a new clone character for a Smash title had been announced before the game launched, with the last time being Lucina in SSB4.
  • Daisy is the 4th female Mario representative after Peach, Rosalina and Wendy.
  • As Peach's orange color in Melee changed her dress, skin tone, gloves, brooches, and crown to match Daisy's (at the time), Daisy is technically the second character to be playable after appearing as an alternate color, following Dark Pit's appearance in SSB4.
    • It's worth noting that Peach's orange color was changed to a more simplistic recolor in both Brawl and SSB4.
