Victory theme
A victory theme, sometimes referred to as a flourish, or a fanfare in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, is a short, recognizable melody that plays at the Results screen after a character wins a Vs. match or other similar events such as a Tourney. For instance, at the Results screen after Mario wins a match, an orchestral cover of the fanfare played at the end of each level in Super Mario Bros. plays.
Characters from the same universe usually share victory themes, though starting in Brawl some universes have different themes for different characters. Meta Knight was the first character to have a different victory theme from the rest of his universe, having his own theme starting with his debut in Brawl. SSB4 introduced unique themes for newcomers Rosalina & Luma, Dark Pit, and Mario villains (shared by veteran Bowser and newcomer Bowser Jr., and later Piranha Plant in Ultimate). Ultimate introduced distinct victory themes for newcomer King K. Rool, veteran Corrin, Metroid villains (shared by newcomers Ridley and Dark Samus), and Fire Emblem Awakening characters (shared by veterans Robin and Lucina and, after changing themes in version 3.0.0, newcomer Chrom).

Trivia
- In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Captain Falcon's and Mr. Game & Watch's victory themes are the only ones that are not orchestral music.
- Rosalina is the first character with a distinct victory theme from her universe who is neither a villain nor an anti-hero. This distinction would later be shared with Lucina, Chrom, Robin, and Corrin in Ultimate.
- Super Smash Bros. 4 was the first game where victory themes are not accessible in the Sound Test.
- Various victory themes from Super Smash Bros. Brawl could be heard during the opening ceremony of the 2015 FIRST Championship.
- The Final Fantasy, Bayonetta, and Castlevania victory themes can be heard in Cloud's, Bayonetta's, and Simon and Richter's reveal trailers. Similarly, the Metal Gear victory theme can be heard in the debut trailer for Super Smash Bros. Brawl after Snake is revealed.
- The Castlevania victory theme heard in Simon and Richter's trailer, however, lacked the electric guitar heard in the final version.
- Ridley had a different victory theme in the E3 2018 demo of Ultimate. It was also a sinister variation of the standard victory theme, but ending with a harp arpeggio resembling the Unknown Item jingle from Metroid: Zero Mission.
- As of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Ganondorf, King Dedede, and Wolf are the only antagonists that do not possess distinct victory themes from their respective universes.
- Mario, Fire Emblem and Persona are the only three universes to have more than two victory themes, with them having a total of 3 each.
- However, if one were to count sub-universes (Donkey Kong, Wario and Yoshi), then Mario would have the most victory themes across the Smash Bros. series, with a total of 7.
- This would make the Mario universe the only one to have more than one victory theme in every single game
- Bayonetta's victory theme is the only one to have English vocals, as the word "forever" can be heard near the end. Lucina, Robin, Chrom, and Corrin's victory themes in Ultimate include non-English vocals.
- It is also the only Sega victory theme that isn't ported from another game, though the individual sections of the theme are taken directly from the originals.
- Joker is the first fighter to have his victory poses and victory theme change depending on the stage; if the match was played on Mementos, it will match the music and aesthetic of the stage.
- This makes Joker the only character to have multiple possible victory themes in the same version of the same game. While Chrom's victory theme changed and fixed from the standard Fire Emblem victory theme (shared with Marth, Roy, and Ike) to the Awakening victory theme (shared with Robin and Lucina) in the 3.0.0 update of Ultimate, he only ever had one theme at a time.
- Joker and Cloud are the only characters with victory themes that loop.
