Sopo

Sopo or SoPo is a term used to refer to playing as only the lead Ice Climber, often due to the trailer being KO'd. The term comes from a combination of "solo" and "Popo" (the lead of the default costume).

Sopo is more of a legitimate character than the similar Nolimar, as Popo's regular moveset remains mostly effective when Nana is absent. That said, he does lose significant effectiveness, such as not being able to use most chaingrabs, and is unlikely to recover from moderately strong blows.
