Daisy (デイジー, Daisy) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. She was revealed as a newcomer alongside Inkling and Ridley from Nintendo's 2018 E3 press conference, on June 12th, 2018. She is an Echo Fighter of Peach. Deanna Mustard's portrayals of Daisy in the Mario games were repurposed for Ultimate.
Differences from Peach
Aesthetics
- As with all echo fighters, Daisy has different aesthetic animations, such as her taunts, victory poses, and entrance animation.
- Daisy has a more energetic idle stance, with her arms held up by her side.
- Daisy uses a Blue Toad instead of a red one for her counter and throws.
- Daisy has flower and petal effects for her attacks, including her dash attack and back aerial, instead of hearts.
- Daisy has different, more cheerful facial expressions for many attacks and action.
- Daisy has a different running animation similar to Super Mario Party.
- Daisy's Final Smash is similar to Peach's Final Smash, except that it summons edible daisies instead of peaches, and is themed around herself.
- Daisy is visibly (but only slightly) shorter than Peach. Whether this has any impact on her hitboxes compared to Peach is currently unknown.
Role in World of Light
Daisy was absent in the World of Light trailer, though she presumably became a spirit alongside the rest of the galaxy (excluding Kirby) when Galeem unleashed its beams of light.

Trivia
- Being an Echo Fighter of Peach, Daisy uses abilities she does not normally use in the Mario franchise, such as Floating, putting enemies to sleep, and the use of a frying pan.
- Despite utilizing a Toad as her neutral special, Daisy has little affiliation with Toads outside of her friendship with Peach. Her country, Sarasaland, is also uninhabited by Toads.
- In Mario Super Sluggers, during the game's story mode, a Red Toad guards Daisy after Bowser Jr. turned her into a stone statue. However, she has no chemistry with Toads.
- In Mario Strikers Charged, her Toad sidekick is a Blue Toad like in Ultimate.
- Daisy doesn't usually have a correlation with Vegetables, though she and all characters pluck turnips in the Mario Party 7 minigame Bumper Crop.
- Daisy's affiliation with the parasol comes through the Mario Kart series, where she can use the "Peach Parasol" on her vehicle with her own colors, though all characters can use this item. She and all characters also used one in the in the Mario Party 3 minigame Parasol Plummet.
- Many of Daisy's animations and artwork reference the Mario series.
- Two of Daisy's victory animations reference her victory celebrations in the Mario series titles Mario Golf: World Tour and Mario Tennis Aces.
- Daisy's pose in her official artwork resembles a piece of artwork from Mario Tennis for the Nintendo 64, only mirrored.
- Daisy's pose for one of her taunts matches promotional artwork of her first used for Mario Kart 7.
- Daisy's pose in the group artwork for Ultimate is based on her back throw animation.
- Daisy was the first Echo Fighter revealed for Ultimate.
- 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 first being Lucina in SSB4.
- Daisy is one of only two newcomers and the only Echo Fighter introduced in Ultimate to not have splash art and an introduction tagline, the other being Inkling.
- Daisy is the only Ultimate newcomer revealed during E3 to not be playable in the E3 demo.
- Daisy is the only Echo Fighter to be featured on the full version of the box art.
- Daisy and Dark Samus are the only echo fighters to be cloned from female characters.
