Shoto or Shotoclone refers simultaneously to:

Since Ken is an Echo Fighter of Ryu in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, players may use this term to refer to both of them simultaneously when applicable, with the term originating from what Street Fighter players call characters derived from Ryu, a phrase derived from "Shotokan", which is a colloquialism for anyone who fights using his style in the Street Fighter series of games.

In the context of SSBU, Terry shares a couple characteristics with the shotos, such as special cancelling, an energy-based projectile, and automatic stance change to always face the opponent. However, Terry cannot be classified as a "shoto" because he uses a different fighting style, and as such, the distinction does not apply to him.
