Alternate costume (SSB4)
Super Smash Bros. 4 contains alternate costumes for each character - players can pick a different color for their character. Due to the presence of 8-Player Smash, all characters now have eight costumes (except for Little Mac, who has sixteen). Even though Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS does not support eight-player games, it still contains all of the same costumes as Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
Certain characters possess alternate costumes with more drastic design differences than simple recolors, similar to Wario in Super Smash Bros. Brawl; Wii Fit Trainer, for instance, has multiple costumes that replace her with a male Trainer. Two characters, Olimar and Bowser Jr., also have costumes that change them into new characters, complete with appropriate Announcer clips, though there are no gameplay differences between them.
Unique to the game is that team matches no longer confine characters to their red, blue, or green color schemes, with team colors being indicated by colored outlines around characters instead; even if outlines are manually disabled in the game's settings, they will be forcibly displayed in team battles. Additionally, some characters don't have such team color options, like Pac-Man, who lacks a green costume.
The Find Mii stage in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS brings selected color schemes into gameplay; on the stage, the Dark Emperor uses magic that affects all players of the same color. The game treats each alternate costume as being one of the twelve colors available for Miis: black, brown, red, orange, yellow, light green, green, light blue, blue, purple, pink, and white. These colors are noted in the second column of the below lists; as several characters have multiple costumes that share this color, the main color names as used on this page do not conform to this system.
