Super Smash Bros. 4 continues to include palette swaps - players can pick a different color for their character. This time around, all characters, with the exception of Little Mac, have eight palette swaps, instead of having up to six.[1] In addition, all palette swaps are available in both versions of the game.
Certain characters possess palette swaps with more drastic design differences than simple recolors, similar to Wario in Brawl; Wii Fit Trainer, for instance, has multiple palette swaps that replace her with a male Trainer. Two characters, Olimar and Bowser Jr., also have palette swaps that change them into new characters, complete with appropriate Announcer clips, though there are no gameplay differences between them.
Unique to the game is that team matches no longer require specific palette swaps, with team colors being indicated by colored outlines around characters instead; even if outlines are manually disabled in the game's settings, they will be forcibly displayed in team battles. As a result, it is no longer mandatory for all characters to have red, blue, and green options, though a majority of characters still have such options.

Villager
Villager's appearance varies greatly between costumes, with their eyes, hair, gender and clothing all changing. All of Villager's palette swaps, with the exception of the yellow palette swap, are based on how the player looks (including his/her eyes, hair style, and clothing) when starting a new game depending on how the player answers three questions asked by Kapp'n and Rover in the very beginning of the game in both Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk respectively. The shirts/dresses worn are named below:
- Red: Male villager wearing a shirt similar to the "No. 1 Shirt", but the 1 is more centered and bigger. This villager appears on the box art of City Folk.
- Pink: Female villager wearing a "Daisy Shirt". This is the only variant with a different hair color (pink instead of brown).
- Yellow: Male villager wearing a "Racer 6 Tee". The only palette swap not based on a villager appearance after the start of a new game. There are eyes that looks like this, but he has a different shirt on, "Paw Tee", and a different hairstyle. It is, however, possible to make him look like this later in the game if he starts with those eyes.
- Green: Female villager wearing a "Turnip Top".
- Cyan: Male villager wearing a "Blue Tie-Dye Tee".
- Blue: Female villager wearing a "Rugby Tee".
