Trivia
- Plup has a positive record against Leffen (2-1).
- Ironically, despite switching his main from Samus to Sheik due to her higher tier list placement, Plup has only been able to defeat Leffen with his Samus, first at Paragon Orlando 2015 and then a second time at EVO 2015, where as he lost to Leffen with his Sheik at CEO 2015.
