Maybe like Fable, the way you act will change you good or evil.

For example, "which princess will you save?"

Kirby: None! Let Wario have his way with both! >:D

Maybe they just put in dark costumes because they look freaking awesome and have no sway whatsoever on the SSE?


Call me crazy, I know.

Dark Characters may just be....a color...

I'm assuming that every character will come with:

Red
Blue
Green
Random
Light
Dark

For Example:

Mario:
Red-Normal Mario
Green-Luigi Mario
Blue-Blue Mario
Random-Fire Mario
Light-Wario Mario
Dark-Dark Mario

Wow I hadn't even considered the possibility of it affecting the adventure mode and team matches, nice work! Could yellow also be a new team? After all we've seen Ike, Pit and Link all have a yellow costume.

Don't forget Mario, Pikachu, and Kirby

I've been putting some serious thought into this concept. Here's what I came up with.

Confirmed (either through E for All or the Smash Bros. DOJO!!):[/U][/B]

Link: Dark Link (link)

Samus: Phazon Suit (link)

Fox: The Dark Fox (link)
(Since the DOJO!! literally called it The Dark Fox, it may be hinting toward a dark team. Definitely not certain, but it's a hint.)

Zelda: Dark Zelda (obviously the one on the left) (link)

Pit: Fallen Angel colors (link)

Meta Knight: Dark Meta Knight (picture not available)

Old colors:

Bowser: Black shell, red hair

Donkey Kong: Black fur, blue tie

Ganondorf (assuming he comes back): Standard colors

Captain Falcon: Black costume

Colors I'd like to see:

Mario: Soar Mario from Super Mario Galaxy -- black overalls, black hat with red M, red shirt, red shoes --(picture not available)

Luigi: Mr. L (link)

Pokémon Trainer: Rocket Grunt (link)

Yoshi: Black Yoshi (link) My favorite picture yet. XD

Kirby: Shadow color (picture not available, but he's a faded black, with darker feet and cheeks, and completely black eyes--iirc)

Sonic: Shadow's colors. Perhaps without the slightly different build. (link)

Pikachu: Rocket Grunt hat, Pikachutwo's ears ((example)), darkened fur. (pic not available)

Ridley (if he's in, of course): Meta Ridley (link)

etc...

Well, I take it there are SIX colors for each character...

so, that means some *Luigi* need 2 more colors to be equal. It appears that they will all share a similar pattern in colors.

Dark Link, Zelda ect.

Perhaps there is white team and black team now....that would be REALLY cool!

No more Blue vs Green....it's now Dark Vs Light!

I really like the dark costumes. The Dark Link and Dark Fox costumes are really cool and I can't wait to see Dark Meta Knight. The Dark team sounds like a really good idea. You could have dark vs. light, or good vs. evil, or whatnot. Looks like a cool idea.

Must.... have..... Mr. L.......

How many times have I said that??

But seriously, if there is evil character stuff, he can't overlook Mr. L for Luigi's dark costume, because it fits because it... fits. Plus, SPM was on the Wii and it's recent (but not too recent).


You're gonna have to throw down with yourself in SSE. I just know it.

Haha it looks like the dark costumes will be used even more than defaults seeing as everyone thinks they're omgztehbadass. I like Pit's default costume but I admit I may be tempted by fallen angel.

Oh and Light Ganon for Brawl!

Sonic does have black colors that look pretty much like Shadow.

Anyways, this theory about Dark costumes being a part of the story is kinda ridiculous. Plus it's been done b4 and you don't want any copy stories. Think of Pokemon: The First Movie.

It's too late not to have copied stories. Bowser stole DK's bananas...

I don't know or care whether the dark costumes become part of the story, I just want to see a Dark Team, purely for the sake of being completely awesome.

Is there any word yet, that the Pokemon Trainer's alternate dark costume might be the black/red/grey Team Rocket outfit you see in the card game and manga? I am gonna need a high quality pic of that as soon as it comes out, if that rumours true. I want to do a Team Rocket member cosplay from something that everyone will recognize instantly, and is more associated with BRAWL then Pokemon. Love the character design of the villains of the Pokemon series, but sort of don't play the Pokemon games themself, (with the exception of Pokemon Puzzle League) and I think if I did that versoin of the outfit people would know I'm more of a BRAWL fan, then a Pokemon fan...but it has to exist first. I hope it will exist.

It seems like the obvious thing to do, if each characters gonna have a dark costume.

It'll vary by character for me. I would play a Rocket Grunt PT or a Soar Mario, but I'm not the black Captain Falcon or the dark Pikachu.

The Rocket costumes are the same in the games as they were in the cards/anime (excluding Jessie and James, of course), etc.



If they do give every character a dark costume, I have a hard time thinking that PT wouldn't get the Rocket Grunt uniform. Unfortunately, there hasn't been any news confirming the inclusion of (or lack of) such a costume.

well, this COULD affect Story mode in a certain way, or at least Classic, you know, against your dark self.
well anyways, what dark costumes do we know by now:

-Mario's black costume
-DK's black hair
-Dark Link
-Dark Fox
-Dark Zelda
-Samus' phazon suit
-Pit's "fallen angel" costume
-MAYBE Snake's ordinary suit
-MK's evil-lookin costume
-Sonic's shadow costume?
-Bowser's black shell

thats bout it isnt it?
When you say Mario's Black costume do you mean Soar Mario from Galaxy?
And Shadow may look evil but that's just in a bad-*** kind of way. Mephilles from Sonic 06 is an Option.
