For me, the only alternate costumes I wanted were the Zora Armor for Link and Mewtwo in his robotic armor. That is, if Mewtwo even makes it back.

yeah alt costumes shoould be just that and not just a color change it'd be an awesome way to "add" characters to the game without having to make another space on the roster pus it would be really awesome!

I've been waiting for a topic like this too pop up again, as I've been thinking a lot about it.
Yes, alternate costumes are needed, and I agree with just about every one of your suggestions. Dr.Mario should be a skin, Daisy a skin, classic wario... heck, even pichu would work. As an added bonus, maybe some stuff like Dr.Marios pills could be changed, really simple but cool. PLEASE sakurai, give us skins.
Oh, also, I must mention, different characters I think can be skins, as long as they are EXTREMELY closely related. Sorry, but Dark Samus could be a samus skin. Ganondorf a C.Falcon skin, though? No way, thats ridiculous.
On the other hand, though, there is one problem. Size, hit boxes, and the like. Cel Link, for example, just wouldn't work as an alternate link skin, as he is deformed, and it would really screw things up, and would take too much work for simply a skin. Not to mention, too many alterations would change the character. Changing animations beyond graphical look would change how a character played, and would make the game unbalanced.
Luckily, though, I don't think we have to worry too much about really drastic skin changes. The simple and best stuff is most likely, and I'm excited to see what we get. Liquid Snake skin? PLEASE?

Pokemon Trainer: female trainer as an alt costume. That is the only logical reason I can think of, why the character is referred to generically, as "Pokemon trainer" rather than just "Red." That is also character that would make sense to change the gender of, as an alt costume, since everybody else is too specific of a character...

also, I'd love to see raccoon Mario as an alt costume.

I pretty much agree with everything in the first post, as it was also something I was thinking about. I will be surprised and disappointed if Brawl does not have this feature...
