Nothing game breaking, but just amusing. Sometimes when playing quickplay my character will just change colors between the waiting area and the actual fight. Doesn't happen very often but is good for a laugh. I even got a completely different colored Ridley on the victory animation while playing Elite Smash. Reminds me of when SSB4 would bug out with weird stages online or have the match in the blank area where you test controls. Anyone else have chameleon characters?

This happened to me once. When going online to test characters out, I was playing as K Rool and went from Color 6 to default after my first battle. I was confused.

I hate it since the last thing I want is for someone to assume that I'm some uncultured little kid only using the default skins.

i have played enough online to know it's a rare occurrence to see my skin be forcibly chanced on me.

this is at least the case in quick play at 500k gsp. it's only happened to me once in thousands of battles.

This happens multiple times per day and it's especially annoying with characters like Robin and Corrin when it changes the gender to male which I don't like to play with at all.

I've had it happen but I think it's more frequent in characters with alternate forms as I've had it with :ultvillager: like 3-4 times, :ultike: like 2 times, and :ultwiifittrainer: like 2 times.

But this also could be cause characters like :ultgreninja: or :ultincineroar: or :ultlittlemac: or :ultpeach: or :ultolimar: I use default often as well. Meanwhile I go for Yellow Male Villager, RD Ikes, and Male WFTs so I usually am not default ever.

This happened to me just yesterday while I was using Palutena. It wasn't that bad since all of Palutena's alts are beautiful.
