* Mega [[Mewtwo]] - During development of the game, an appearance of Mewtwo's {{s|bulbapedia|Mega Evolution}} was reportedly considered by [[Masahiro Sakurai]] but there is no confirmation if regular Mewtwo was considered for the base roster. <ref>[http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/34700 Sakurai Considering Mewtwo for Next Smash Bros. Games]</ref> | |||
*[[Chrom]] - In Sakurai's weekly Famitsu Column after the reveal trailer for {{SSB4|Robin}} and {{SSB4|Lucina}}, Sakurai stated that he considered adding Chrom in the game and even planned a moveset for him.
