Alternate costume (SSB): Difference between revisions

*'''Green Outfit*: ''Green Team''''' May be very loosely based on Pico and his vehicle, the Wild Goose, but this seems coincidental. Alternatively, one of the Blue Falcon's alternate colors in ''F-Zero X'' is green.

*'''Blue Outfit*: ''Blue Team''''' An alternate, brighter version of his standard colors that resembles his appearance in ''F-Zero'' on the SNES, although no official mention of this is made on the Dojo. Later in Brawl however, some specific changes to the colours (such as a yellow shoulder pad) were made to make this connection obvious. Note that this outfit is a deeper blue hue in the game than the purple depicted here.

*'''Black Fur: ''2P''''' No official description for this color, but it seems to be based on the fur colors of real life gorillas. It may also be a reference to ''Donkey Kong 94'' on the Game Boy, which depicted Donkey Kong with black fur, even when played on the Super Game Boy.

*'''Red Fur: ''2P & Red Team''''' Again, no official description, but this was possibly based on his sprite in the original arcade ''Donkey Kong''. Alternatively, it is also extremely similar to the Guerilla and Chained Kong enemies from ''Super Mario RPG''.

*'''Blue Fur: ''4P & Blue Team''''' Later used in ''Mario Golf'' on the N64, but originates from this game.

*'''Gray Jacket: ''1P''''' Fox's default appearance borrows heavily from his appearance in ''StarFox 64''.

*'''Red Jacket: ''2P & Red Team''''' Although not officially noted, this may be based on the clothes worn by the Star Wolf Team in ''StarFox 64''. Details of their clothing cannot be seen, but they do appear to be wearing a similar orange coloured jacket and purple shirt during communications with them in the game.

*'''No Ribbon: ''1P''''' Jigglypuff's default appearance it taken specifically from her appearance in ''Pocket Monsters Stadium'', in which she had green eyes despite official art depicting them as blue (in later Pokemon games, Shiny Jigglypuff would have green eyes).

*'''Red Ribbon: ''2P & Red Team''''' Although Jigglypuff did not wear a bow prior to this game, transferring a Jigglypuff from Pokemon Red, Blue or Yellow to Gold, Silver or Crystal would reveal the Pokemon to be holding a Polkadot Bow, possibly as a reference to this game. This particular bow does not change the color of her body.

*'''Blue Ribbon: ''3P & Blue Team''''' This color of Jigglypuff makes her look akin to a Shiny Jigglypuff, although Shiny Pokemon did not exist until after this game's release. Different colored Pokemon did appear in ''Pocket Monsters Stadium'', although Jigglypuff was not playable in that game.

*'''Pink Body: ''1P''''' Kirby's default appearance and vast majority of his moves are borrow from ''Kirby Super Star'' on the SNES.

*'''Yellow Body: ''2P (aka: Keeby: Kirby Bowl)''''' Based on Keeby, the yellow Kirby that the second player controls from ''Kirby's Dream Course'' on the SNES and Super Famicom, known as Kirby Bowl in Japan.

*'''Blue Body: ''3P & Blue Team (Ice Ability: Hoshi no Kirby Super Deluxe SFC)''''' Based on Kirby's appearance as Ice Kirby from ''Kirby Super Star'' on the SNES and Super Famicom, without the hat. Is also identical to his appearance as Ice and Freeze Kirby from ''Kirby's Adventure'' on the NES.

*'''Red Body: ''4P & Red Team (Fire Ability: Hoshi no Kirby Super Deluxe SFC)''''' Based on Kirby's appearance as Fire Kirby from ''Kirby Super Star'' on the SNES and Super Famicom, without the hat. Is also identical to his appearance as Fire Kirby from ''Kirby's Adventure'' on the NES.

*'''Green Tunic: ''1P & Green Team''''' Link's default appearance is based specifically on adult Link from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'' on the N64.

*'''Red Tunic: ''2P & Red Team (Goron Tunic: The Legend of Zelda 64)''''' Based on the Goron Tunic from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'' on the N64. Also bears similarity to Link's appearance while using the Shield magic in ''Zelda II: The Adventure of Link'' on the NES, or having obtained the Red Ring in the original ''The Legend of Zelda'' on the NES.

*'''Blue Tunic: ''3P & Blue Team (Zora Tunic: The Legend of Zelda 64)''''' Based on the Zora Tunic from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'' on the N64.

*'''Light Purple Tunic: ''4P (Blue Ring Equipped: The Legend of Zelda FC) ''''' Based on Link's appearance having obtained the Blue Ring in the original ''The Legend of Zelda'' on the Famicom and NES.

*'''Green Cap: ''1P & Green Team''''' While Luigi's most recent appearances were in ''Mario Kart 64'' and ''Mario Party'', Luigi's default appearance seems to bear most similarity to his appearance in ''Super Mario All-Stars + World'' on the SNES, where he had a more purple hue to his dungarees than Mario.

*'''White Cap: ''2P (Old Luigi Colors: Mario Bros. Famicom)''''' Based off Luigi's appearance in the NES and Famicom versions of ''[[Mario (universe)#Mario Bros.|Mario Bros.]]''. The colors were also the same in ''Super Mario Bros.'', but with the dungarees and shirt colors reversed.

*'''Blue Cap: ''3P & Blue Team''''' No official mention made, but does look similar to Mario's appearance on the box art of ''Mario Bros.'' for the NES, albeit with a light blue hat rather than dark blue.

*'''Red Cap: ''4P & Red Team (aka: Strawberry Luigi)''''' Strawberry Luigi may be a joking reference to [[Princess Peach]].

*'''Brown Cap: ''3P (Blackie Colors: Wrecking Crew FC)''''' A reference to Foreman Spike, known as Blackie in Japan, a rival to Mario in ''Wrecking Crew'' on the NES and Famicom.

*'''Blue Cap: ''4P & Blue Team (Old Mario Colors: Mario Bros. FC)''''' A red/blue reversal of his traditional colors. The specific color tones are taken from ''Mario Bros.'' on the NES and Famicom, although he actually wore a red hat, blue dungarees and red shirt in this game, much like his traditional appearance. In the original arcade game and official art, he wore a blue hat. In the original Donkey Kong and its sequel however, he wore a red hat, blue shirt and red dungarees. Therefore this is seen as an amalgamation of his old appearances, with only the color tones specifically taken from Mario Bros. on the NES. It should be noted, however, that this particular arrangement of red and blues does match up with the appearance of the Balloon Fighter from [[Balloon Fight]] on the NES.

*'''Green Cap: ''Green Team''''' Contrary to popular belief, it is not a reference to Luigi. However, it does coincidentally resemble Luigi's colors from the Famicom ''Mario Bros'' box art, albeit with orange instead of brown. A similar arrangement of colours also appears as part of the flashing animation from a Starman in ''Super Mario Bros.'', but this is almost certainly also a coincidence.

*'''Red Cap: ''1P & Red Team''''' Ness's default appearance is taken directly from the only game he appeared in, [[EarthBound]]. Note that it is also extremely similar in appearance to Ninten from ''Mother''.

*'''Blue Cap: ''3P & Blue Team''''' No official reference is made, although coincidentally Ness' younger self who appeared in the Magicant in ''Earthbound'' wore a blue cap (the rest of his outfit was very different, however). Note that the cap appears blue in game, despite the image depicting it as purple.

*'''No Hat: ''1P''''' Pikachu's appearance in this game is most notably taken from ''Pocket Monsters Stadium'' on the N64, but the blue electricity he uses is from ''Pokemon Yellow'' on the Game Boy.

*'''Red Hat: ''2P & Red Team''''' Same colored body as a Shiny Pikachu, although at the time of [[Super Smash Bros.|SSB]]'s release, Shiny Pokémon, so this is coincidental. However, ''Pocket Monsters Stadium'' did change the colors of Pokemon if they are given nicknames, so a Pikachu with a red hue is possible.

*'''Blue Hat: ''3P & Blue Team''''' Pikachu's fur color remains the same as normal while wearing this hat.

*'''Green Hat: ''4P & Green Team''''' As mentioned, ''Pocket Monsters Stadium'' allowed for alternate coloured Pokemon if they were given nicknames. One of the Rental Pokemon, a Pikachu called Pikachikun, has a green hue.

*'''Orange Armor: ''1P & Red Team''''' Samus' default appearance is based on her Varia Suit from ''Super Metroid'' on the SNES.

*'''Pink Armor: ''2P (Gravity Suit: Super Metroid SFC)''''' Based off of her appearance in game wearing the Gravity Suit in ''Super Metroid'' on the SNES. This pink hue is also very similar to the Varia Suit in the original ''Metroid'' on the NES. Note that her Gravity Suit in official art and later games is closer in appearance to the Blue Armor.

*'''Blue Armor: ''Blue Team''''' Not officially noted, but bears similarities to Samus wearing her Gravity Suit in official art for ''Super Metroid'', aside from the additional yellow on her shoulders. This color would be modified in later games to specifically represent the Gravity Suit. Note that this color is a deeper blue in the game than depicted here.
