Talk:Alternate costume (SSBU)/Archive 6: Difference between revisions

::Generally I don't think comparing a pallet swap to a character from a different franchise is a good idea, and the fact that Sonic is a 3rd party franchise while Pokémon is a 1st (2nd?) party franchise makes it even more "farfetch'd!" (I'm sorry I'm a punmaker thanks to watching chuggaaconroy). Even the blue Mewtwo being Giygas example is less of a stretch than this, especially considering how Ape inc, who worked on EarthBound, was renamed Creatures inc and went on to work on Pokémon.

::Sometimes though there are cases where a character's alt better resembles a character from a different franchise, but because it's a different franchise it's better to put a reference to something from their home series as the inspiration instead. One example I can give is I once heared someone say years ago that Boweser's blue alt in SSB4 resembles Feraligatr (and I do agree it does), but since he's a Mario character False Bowser is more plausible and should be the put as the inspiration, and so the same should be done about Incineroar's purple alt although Purrloin is still kinda iffy. In my opinion outside of obvious cases like Jigglypuff wearing Peach's crown and Kirby's sleep hat, we should have the mindset of "If it doesn't resemble something from their home series, it's more than likely a Smash original".
