Or the otherwise unused minus button if you’re playing with the pro controller/dual joycons

How does the metagame change?

Zelda and Sheik alongside Samus and Zero Suit Samus can now transform into each other by taunting. How much does the metagame change with their new abilities
Is this supposed to be theorethical question, though? I tried it in the game, and it didn't do anything.

Is it just a discussion of how it would change the metagame?

Of course it’s therorethical. I wager they would’ve included it in patch notes if the change was actually made

The wording was just weird, and it would've been a really weird "easter egg".

They would be a lot better together, very similiar to PyraMythra minus the disjoints but other resources like still being able to use Phantom and even Bouncing Fish > extra recovery. You can probably do something super crazy like Fair strings with Sheik and then switch to Zelda and user her on Fair to kill at ridiculous percents.

They would actually be pretty broken, when you think about it. Unlike Mythra, Sheik has better combos and access to Phantom is just broken. If Sheik were back to being the Down B like in other games, then Zelda would lose a really important tool in neutral and ledgetrapping and possibly only become the "kill button", like Pyra.
