Distinction ideas for both Samus

In default of having pretty Shantae playable for a Smash 6, my biggest wish would be that Dark Samus gets decloned from her model, and I've thought of several ideas of new moves to attribute between both of them.

Global changes:
  • Samus would become faster and nimbler, akin to her appearances in the GBA games and Samus Returns, whereas Dark Samus would "inherit" her current physics.
  • Both get a new down-tilt based on the Boost Ball from the Prime games, where they charge in ball form on a short distance.
  • In addition to their Super Missile, both can also charge their side-b to change their regular Missile to an Ice Missile.

For :ultsamus::
  • A new up-smash referencing her Melee Counter from Samus Returns, and would get a super armor effect in order to further mirroring it.
  • The return of her sex kick from the first 3 Smash games as her new forward-air.
  • A viable jab.

For :ultdarksamus::
  • A rapid jab which makes her emanate Phazon from the palm of her left hand.
  • A dash attack taken from one of the attacks she used in Prime 3 when she dashes towards her enemies by stretching her arm cannon frontward.
  • A new down-smash where she summons Phazon tendrils surrounding her, in reference to her attack as an AT in Smash 4, which would get a reflector effect, like in Prime 2 and 3.
  • A neutral-air where she emits Phazon energy from her whole body, think of Pikachu's and Mewtwo's to give you an idea.
  • A back-air where she emits a Phazon explosion from the tip of her cannon.
  • A neutral-b which becomes the Hyper Beam from Prime 3 which, once fully charged, shoots on a shorter distance than Samus's Charge Shot but in bursts and can be inclined upwards or downwards.
  • An up-b referencing an attack she used during her first fight against Samus in Prime 2, where she rises in the air before violently projecting herself diagonally.

That would make no less than 9 new differences between both Samus in total, a sufficient amount to qualify Dark Samus as a semi-clone.
We could always make suggestions on a new Final Smash or on their grabs, but it's already not bad you'd agree.
