Shadow Bug
Some ppl have suggested that a character created in smash should be a playable character.
Tabuu has been mentioned.
Even Master Hand.

Others have suggested that Sakurai should create a new, pure, "Smash Bros Representative".

However, I personally would love having this underestimated guy as a playable.
And, on a sidenote, he's got a better Moveset Potential than Ditto.

There's no need too put together a whole moveset for him right now, though.
But Imma tell you about his neutral B:

Neutral B: Shape Shift

Shadow Bug transforms into any of the other character for 10 seconds.
Your input decides what character.
(Mortal Kombat Fans will recognize this)

Example:

While holding B, input:
Forward, forward, forward, to transform into C.Falcon.
Up, down, up, for Samus.
A, a, a, for Mario.
Back, a, forward, for DK.
... and so on.

This character could be really effective when in the hands of a skilled player.

Cons: Could easily be broken if not balanced properly.
Could aslo put to much pressure on your hardware.

Being one who mained good ol' Shangster in the last Mortal Kombat, part of me would hate to think I'd follow suit with that little bugger, though it'd be kinda cool in concept.

The neutral form should be a ton of Shadow Bugs grouped up w/ arms and legs, a head, etc. I have the smashes and specials in front of me.

F-Smash: Shadow Bug Shoots it's left arm. It deals 15%

U-Smash: Shadow Bug shoots it's head upwards. Deals 13% and would be used mainly for juggling.

D-Smash: The legs detach and do the spilts(please don't make a joke). It deals 14%

Side Special: A ton of Shadow Bugs detach from the body section, forming a blast. Does 19%. The Shadow Bug will take a lot more damage while he's hit for 20 seconds, when the Shadow Bugs come back.

Down Special: Shadow Bugs detach from the legs, and roam the stage. If a prey comes into sight, they will pursue it. Like the Side Special, Shadow Bug will take more damage when the legs are hit for 29 seconds. The bugs do 12%.

Up Special: The Shadow Bugs will float upwards. Does 14%.

You have the N-Special, so I'm leaving it out.
