 ::Incineroar's alt and Big the Cat look much more similar than the other spirit battles you mentioned, and that wasn't the original reason anyway, just a supporting detail. I'm not using spirit battles as a sole explanation for some alts, just as a reference since some spirit battles' character alts could legitimately be the character they were originally based on. Charizard's yellow alt's wing membranes are blue enough to be Dragonite if the purple and grey alt's are purple enough to be Zubat and Aerodactyl respectively. Two of ROB's alts being based on glitch enemies from Gyromite are much more of a stretch then some of the ones I mentioned, and the yellow one doesn't even look like ROB's alt. But yeah, I can see how Sheik's isn't Tetra and Sonic's isn't Shadow. And I said that Marth's is Camus, not that Chrom's is Owain (that one's already mentioned on the page).

-K Rool’s white in my opinion is either KAckle, the skeleton with the blue bandana, or a reference to the super long guide in Tropical Freeze that is white with a blue tie.

 ::On the topic of Kanden and Big the Cat, I tried to start a discussion about how much weight Spirit Battles should have in supporting/deconfirming alternate costume sources. Unfortunately, the talk page was getting too long and the discussion was archived before anyone replied. --[[User:PeabodySam|PeabodySam]] ([[User talk:PeabodySam|talk]]) 19:53, 25 December 2018 (EST)

+::::Aidan is right. As specified by our policy, we should be conservative with alts and shouldn’t assign references just because it “could” be plausible. Attributions should be obvious, objectively plausible, or explicitly stated by the developers.<br>I don’t think the Gold Peach attribution makes sense because there is already ways in the game for the game for characters to become entirely gold, such as on Golden Plains or with Xerneas. Plus, Peach’s alt is yellow, not gold. They are different shades of color. I think it’s more reasonable to think they just gave Peach a yellow gown because it looks nice. And for the record, there is no “green” Virus in the Dr. Mario games. [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 13:03, 27 December 2018 (EST)
