Super Smash Bros. Brawl didn't change much about the concept of palette swaps - players can pick a different color for their character by cycling through a list of up to six choices. The buttons used to cycle are 1/2 for the Wii Remote and Nunchuk combination, A and B for the Wii remote alone configuration, and pressing X/Y for the Classic Controller and GameCube controller.
Most characters have six colors available, though Jigglypuff, Lucario, Pokémon Trainer, and Sonic only have five, and Pikachu has only four. Wario on the other hand has two outfits with six choices each, not only doubling his options but allowing him to change outfits even when locked into a color for Team Battles.
A few characters (namely, Lucario, Pokémon Trainer, and Sonic) have sets of palette changes that can be difficult to distinguish from each other in a match. As such, tournaments have the "colorblind rule" in doubles matches, where a player can choose which colours their team and their opponents' team are, if either team has one of the aforementioned characters on their team. While texture hacks are usually discouraged from being used in tournaments, if not flat out disallowed, it's usually acceptable to use simple texture hacks on these characters to make the color difference between their team palettes more obvious.
When selecting characters in tournament mode, instead of displaying the character's colored image of the chosen costume, a colored bar is displayed in the player list. This color is usually an intuitive indicator of which costume has been chosen, but there are several cases where costumes are given strange colors (such as giving cyan to Ike's default blue-brown getup, or using orange or yellow when the opposite is clearly more correct).
In online and Team Brawls, if two characters shared the same palette swap, the second player would have a lighter tint in their appearance. A third player uses a darker tint. A fourth player's tint is even darker than the third player's. It is generally quite difficult to distinguish from the third player's palette.
The following lists are sorted by the order in which they're selected on the character selection screen. This order isn't always the same as the internal .pac file names' numbers; the correct numbers can be found between parenthesis on the respective color's bullet point.

This glitch can occur when every player selects random, and multiple players end playing as the same character.
Trivia
- Captain Falcon's red outfit actually has one file for each available PAL language in the game (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian). While presumably done so localizers could edit the "Blood Hawk" on the back to match the current language, this appears to have been skipped or glossed over, as there is no difference between the files.
- Mr. Game and Watch only has one file for his model/textures. This indicates that the color variations come from tinting or blending the textures, instead of pre-rendered bitmaps.
- Luigi has a model file 02 that looks a lot like his blue outfit, but is slightly lighter and goes unused.
