Okay, so for each series in Smash, what would be the WORST ideas for newcomers. In my opinion it would be:
:ultbayonetta:No idea
:ultfalcon:That weird octopus guy
:ultcloud:Chocobo
:ultdk:Baby Kong
:ultduckhunt:Uhhhhhhhh... just a duck?
:ultfox:PIGMA
:ulticeclimbers:Random seal
:ultinkling:Some kind of evil version of you?
:ultkirby:Broom Guy
:ultlink:Impa (BOTW) (yes: it would be weirder then Tingle)
:ultlittlemac:Referee Mario
:ultmario:Goomba... just a Goomba
:ultmarth:Katerina... good luck remembering HER!
:ultmegaman:Clown Man
:ultmiifighters:Mii Link Clone
:ultgnw:Octopus
:ultness:Dancing Hippie
:ultolimar:Rainbow Pikmin
:ultpacman:Professor Pac-Man
:ultpikachu:Stunfisk
:ultpit:Hewdraw
:ultrob:Uhhhhhh....
:ultryu:Q
:ultsamus:Mother Brain
:ultshulk:I honestly don’t know anything about Xenoblade... sorry
:ultsimon:Scawy Baaat!
:ultsnake:Psycho Mantis... okay, that would actually be awesome
:ultsonic:Princess Elise

:ultfalcon: Mr. EAD
:ultmegaman: Oilman / any generic mook
:ultkirby: Bronto Burt
:ultcloud:Lightning (Fight me...also I don't actually know the FF series, so this one is 100% genuine bait.)
:ultfox: Slippy or Final Form Pigma
:ultlink: Bunny Link
:ultmario:Goomba
:ultyoshi: Baby Mario
:ultmarth:Another Marth
:ultness:Literally anyone (Okay, this one's the same as the FF series.)
:ultwario:Literally Anyone (Fight me)
:ultpit:Literally Anyone (Fight me)
:ultbayonetta:Literally Anyone (Fight me)
:ultolimar:Literally Anyone (Fight me)
:ultinkling:Literally Anyone (Fight me)

:ultshulk:I don't know the series (also, Fight me. I gue :ultmetaknight:)
:ultsimon: Reinhardt Schneider (From Castlevania 64)
:ultsamus: Adam (Metroid Fusion Era; actually just a talking computer)
:ultpokemontrainer: Youngster Joey

Still up Peach's dress.
:ultmario: Geno Il Piantassamo. Goomba is at least an iconic Mario mook. I didn't much care for Sunshine, but Petey is the superior Sunshine option.
:ultdk: Kiddy Kong. The one playable Kong from the list that no one liked. People at least like Lanky, Tiny and even Chunky has a few fans.
:ultlink: Sheik Another ****ing Link. Or another Zelda.
:ultkirby: Ribbon. On her own. No Adeline.
:ultyoshi: Baby Bowser. I know Jr is technically a different character but it's a very minimal difference design wise. Yes I'd take Stork over the main antagonist.
:ultsamus: Adam. Everyone hated him. Anthony Higgins is the superior choice.
:ultpikachu:Luvdisc. Not even an evolution to save it.
:ultfox: Sgt Pepper. Slippy would actually be great with turrets based on Star Fox Guard, and Peppy is fine too.
:ultness: Anyone who isn't Porky, Giygas or maybe Ninten.
:ultfalcon: Anyone who isn't Goroh, Pico or Black Shadow
:ultmarth: Stahl. Very forgettable. Rides a horse(I think?) and is another Awakening Fire Emblem. Alternatively anyone who is getting Marth's boring ass moveset again.
:ulticeclimbers: Anyone else.
:ultgnw: Anyone else.
:ultpit: Magnus? A guy with a giant sword has been done a lot already.
:ultolimar: Anyone who isn't Louie, Brittany or Charlie and maybe the Plasm Wraith. MAYBE.
:ultsnake: Sniper Wolf or The End. Not really sure how well a Sniper would work in a game like Smash Bros.
:ultwario: 18 Volt? Young Cricket? Eh, anyone who isn't Ashley, 9-Volt, Mona or Jimmy.
:ultrob: Anyone else
:ultsonic: Shadow Probably...I dunno, Sticks? Marina? Chip? One of the weird one off Sonic friends that never appeared again.
:ultvillager: Redd. Over Nook specifically.
:ultmegaman: Bad Boxart Megaman
:ultwiifittrainer: Anyone or thing else
:ultlittlemac:Bald Bull. Despite being in all the Punch Outs he's not terribly interesting.
:ultpacman: Pac-Man Jr.
:ultmiifighters:Mii Plaza NPC characters
:ultshulk: Honestly don't know the series enough to comment yet
:ultryu: Sean? Kind of the most forgettable Ryu clone IMO.
:ultcloud: Squall. No reason, I just don't like him much.
:ultbayonetta: Enzo
:ultinkling: Judd
:ultsimon: Again, not mega familiar with the Castlevania series

This is basically "What really weak and/or obscure character from that game series do you remember?"
