SSBU: Make your own roster... with a twist!

[RineYFD]

Okay, I'm choosing not to remove anyone who isnt a newcomer
After all this is Smash Bros ULTIMATE here.
Wouldn't be special we removed the veterans here. Anyways.
Fighters:
Echoes:
Replacements:
Fighters: Decidueye, Isaac, Sora
Echoes: Dixie

 

[Butters Stotch]

Cuts:



Replacments:

• 
  
• Baby Bros
• Impa
• 
• Octoling
• Black Shadow
• (unique)
• Grovyle
• Gen 5 rep
• Toad
• Mii Athlete (replaces all three Miis)
• Lyn
• Krystal (no seriously, check out this video)
• Dixie Kong
• Shadow
• Tom Nook
• Wrestler
• Bandana Dee
• Professor Layton/Jibanyan
• Isaac
• Travis Touchdown

As shown by the video, Krystal would replace Dark Pit as a clone, as outlandish as it sounds. Baby Bros, Impa, Black Shadow, and Wrestler play mostly the same as the characters they're replacing and are here to preserve their movesets, though Waluigi or an unrepresented IP could work better over the Icies if I'm being honest.

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

My Twisted Roster:

• Piranha Plant (He sucks and he doesn't deserve to be in Game)

• Kazuya (Not very popular)

• Young Link (Gets removed and Toon Link serves as Link's echo)
• Pichu (He didn't deserved to be in Smash!)

• Dark Pit (Becomes an Alt.)
• Richter (Alternate Costume)

[pupNapoleon]

for Chibi Robo
for Eevee
for Isaac
for Balloon Fighter
for Paper Mario (mallet, other moves taken from other players)
for Baby Bros
for Octoling
for Daruk
for Revali
for Mipha
for Urbosa
for Impa
for Chorus Kids/ Rhythm Heaen
for Bandana Dee (semi based off Kirby)
for Andross (semi based off Master Hand Controls)
for Meowth/Team Rocket
for Excite!

for Captain Toad
for Dixie Kong
for DK jr (smaller version of a character)
: Lip (moves from Kirby, assist trophies, Zelda,
for Tom Nook/ K K Slider
for Dragaux
for Sukapon (semi based on Rayman and others)
for Takamaru (an amalgamation of other characers)
for Rayman
for Agumon
for Lara Croft
for Scorpion
for Andy (all moves taken from others- Inkling ink, K Rool Canon, Snake Mine, other stage conrol elements)
: Leon Kennedy (based off Snake, melee weapons, and more)

I did do my best to think of this as Nintendo having the same limitations, with semi clones/echoes, and third party availability. All theory, of course, becasue neither of those things is the same per each character.

 

[AlRex]

Blah dee blah, some are rough equivalents, but mostly I went with just some big names.
Main roster
Jigglypuff for Meowth
Ice Climbers for Metal Slug [the tank plus the gunners you can switch to, who are all alts for each other]
Sheik for Sub-Zero
Dr. Mario for Paper Mario
Pichu for Crash Bandicoot
Falco for Ratchet & Clank
Young Link for Skull Kid
Roy for Scorpion
Zero Suit Samus for Dark Samus being a full character [so that Echo is gone, as well]
Pokémon Trainer for Sceptile, Space Invaders, and Kratos...no, not all as one character.
Lucas for Master Chief
Toon Link for Tetra
Wolf for DOOM Slayer
Rosalina & Luma for Parappa the Rapper
Mii Fighters for a general customizable "Create a Mii Fighter" thing that can mix and match attack types [Brawler/Sword/Gun/Mage/Sports]
Bowser Jr. for Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik [mostly because Eggman is much cooler, IMO]
Piranha Plant for Bomberman
Joker for Carmen Sandiego [mostly because I just think Carmen Sandiego in Smash would be cool, no offense to Joker fans]
Byleth for Sami
Min Min for Centipede
Pyra/Mythra for Agumon/Greymon

Echoes
Lucina for Ms. Pac-Man
Chrom for Shadow [mixes Sonic and Mewtwo's moves like how Chrom mixes Roy and Ike. Sure.]
Dark Pit for ...I dunno, Glass Joe.

I might have added more retro Nintendo characters but I remembered a lot of other big VG characters, and some weird ones I liked.

 

[pupNapoleon]

And if I am not considering third party perimeters, as well as clone perimeters, and can add them in anywhere, here is my list.
cut: (41)

Add: Eevee, Chibi Robo, Isaac, Meowth/Team Rocket, Pokemon Trainer (flash animations), Tom Nook/KK Slider, Andy, Balloon Fighter, Paper Mario, Dragaux, Chorus Kids/ Rhythm Heaven, Excite, Lip, Diddy Kong & Dixie Kong (one full moveset), Captain Toad, King Boo
Doom Slayer, Jonesy, Monster Hunter, Crash, Spyo, Master Chief, Leon Kennedy, CJ (GTA). Scorpion, Lara Croft, Agumon, Rayman, Jibanyan, Kratos, Nightmare, Sol Badguy, Frogger, Bomberman, Space Invader, Carmen San Diego, Qbert, Nathan Drake, Ezio, Angry Bird, Tracer, Warcraft

Basically. This turned it into a 'main character from all the most famous games' motif.


Since I literally cut half the roster, here are the characters I kept:



Or organized by series with multiple:

• Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Captain Toad
• Yoshi, Wario, Paper Mario, King Boo
• DK, Diddy & Dixie, K Rool

I would absolutely kick out Richter Belmont in order to have Jeanne as a Bayonetta echo. That's literally how she functions in her own games.
