One of Isabelle's moves involves her planting a Gyroid into the ground (like Villager's tree), but then the Gyroid flies up once the opponents gets near it. At first I thought this was a reference to the Spiritual Stones from Ocarina of Time and how they can fly up, too, but I don't think that was the case. I was just playing Smash 4 and I unlocked Liftoff Lloid (I never bothered grinding for customs), which is Villager's second? custom side special. It also launches up, but at an angle.
Is it possible that her Gyroid planting move may be an instance where the developers are just taking a Villager custom move, mapping it onto Isabelle and calling it good?
