Characters That Should Be Removed from the Super Smash Bros Series

The Top Ten
1 Dark Pit

Dark pit is better than waluigi and roy and has better moves than them both

We don't need a dark version of every character.

I agree! Why do we need Dark Pit?

Dark pit is swagger than pit

2 Dr. Mario Dr. Mario is the persona Mario takes in the Dr. Mario series. Under this identity, Mario dons a lab coat, a head mirror, and a stethoscope around his neck. He first appeared in his titular game, Dr. Mario.

This should be an alternate costume for Mario, not a separate fighter.

He should just be another skin for mario

Who asked for him?

3 Lucina Lucina is one of the main characters in Fire Emblem Awakening, as well as a fighter in Super Smash Bros. Her most notable feature is her love for her father.

Complete copy of Marth. She should be just a costume for Marth.

This list is horrible

4 Roy (Fire Emblem Sword of Seals)

He's completely uninteresting

I don't agree he is awesome

5 Cloud Cloud Strife, more commonly known as simply "Cloud", is a fictional video game character, the main protagonist of Square's video game Final Fantasy VII, which is a role playing game released in 1997. He also is the main protagonist of the high-definition version, as well as many of its sequels and spinoffs. He was introduced as a mercenary imployed by the ECO-Terrorist group AVALANCHE, but eventually evolves into an unlikely hero. His notable features are his spiky blond hair, his muscular physique, and his huge and powerful sword, the Buster Sword, normally found resting over his shoulders.

He and Bayonetta should be #1 and #2 respectively

6 Luigi Luigi, originally a palette swap of Mario named Green Mario, is a major character featured in video games and related media released by Nintendo. Created by prominent game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, Luigi is portrayed as the slightly younger, taller fraternal twin brother of Nintendo's unofficial mascot Mario, and appears in many games throughout the Super Mario franchise, often as a sidekick to his brother.

Let's take Luigi, and push him somewhere else.

Take this off now!

Noo! Take this off!

7 Pichu Pichu is an Electric type Baby Pokémon introduced in Gen. 2. It evolves into Pikachu. It is in the in undiscovered egg group, since it's a baby Pokémon. It is No. 172 in the Pokedex. It can be called a joke character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, because of its awful stats and weak moves. After its ...read more.
8 Ganondorf Ganon (Referred to as Ganondorf in human form) is a fictional character and the central antagonist of Nintendo's Legend of Zelda series. He is a power-hungry Gerudo who possesses the Triforce of Power and aims to conquer Hyrule with the remaining Triforce parts.

His personality says it all. Also, why do you people hate Dark Pit? Or... are you jelly? Oh, I know why; you don't know how to use him! Aww, you are jealous!

They didn't improve him from Brawl to 4.

9 Jigglypuff Jigglypuff, known in Japan as Purin, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Well, people hate this character because of the helpless recovery move

JIGGLYPUFF IS A GOOD CHARACTER. Why are people hating on Jigglypuff.

10 Bowser Jr. Bowser Jr., or sometimes simply Jr., is a video game character who appears in Nintendo's Mario franchise as the secondary antagonist. He is the youngest son of the series' primary antagonist, Bowser.

I don't care if his palette swaps are the other Koopalings, he's not that great to use and I never liked him in anything before.

His mere existence is disgusting on so many levels.

He's been in his clown car in almist every game since Sm4sh! GET OFF YOUR ASS AND FIGHT!

Stupid character

The Contenders
11 Bayonetta Bayonetta, real name Cereza, is a fictional character and protagonist of the video game Bayonetta and its sequel, developed by PlatinumGames and published by Sega and Nintendo respectively.

Anyone "correcting" the person who wondered how she EVER got in the game: her series was "saved" by a deal with Nintendo, hence why 2 was Wii U exclusive. 2 was released soon after Smash Wii U/3DS. If she truly was the most-voted character they would have said so, not just "very popular in our #3 market" and "within the top 5". Her series had to be "saved" by Nintendo, read: weren't that popular. So cram the "won fair and square", "everyone wanted her", etc!

Sakurai has since admitted she didn't actually win the Smash Ballot, nor was she even second (that would be Sora and Banjo, respectively). Nintendo just wanted to boost sales of her second game and included her solely for that reason.

A previous comment said the Wii Fit Trainer was included for "unnecessary additional sex appeal". Speaking of that...

12 Princess Peach Princess Peach is a major character in the Mario Bros. Franchise. She is the lead female of the The Mario franchise. She is usually the character who needs saved in most Mario Games, but also has appeared as a playable character in the Main-Series Mario Games, including Super Mario 3D World, Super Mario ...read more.

Peach is far from weak. Her floating mechanic allows her to have great arial and offstage play. Her turnips allow for great air and ground approaches, along with the chance to pull more powerful turnips that can kill at low percentages, as well as items like bombs and beam swords. One of the best melee players in the world uses peach, clearly nobody who voted did there research here.

Oh you got it instantly replaced her with daisy you just know that is gonna happen in after universe peach got cut

Okay,peach is not the strongest.but she can put foes to sleep and heal 10 percent of DAMAGE! How cool is that

The only good thing about her being in the game is that part when Mr. Game and Watch takes her umbrella.

13 Captain Falcon Douglas Jay Falcon, known commonly as Captain Falcon, is a playable character in the racing video game series F-Zero.
14 Toon Link

Replace him with either Tetra or Vaati. Not only could either one represnt the toon side of the Zelda series, but they both have more moveset potential than Toon Link does.

Two things that should happen in Smash Bros 5: Toon Link replaced, Young Link returns.

Nope. Toon link's cool. Yeah what, Young link?

There are too many links in smash ultimate. I personally don’t like that very much, and at least Dark Pit was dubbed an echo. I am confused why at least one of the two younger links isn’t considered an echo fighter.

15 Piranha Plant The Piranha Plant, known as the Pakkun Flower in Japan, is a plant species from the Mario franchise which usually appears as a leafy green stalk topped with a white-spotted red or green globe, with a maw lined with sharp teeth reminiscent of piranhas.
16 Corrin (Fire Emblem Fates)

I tend to forget this person is even in the game

17 Snake

Removed, but brought back when he should've stayed gone

18 Greninja Greninja is a Water/Dark type Pokemon introduced in Gen 6. It is the evolved form of Frogadier and the final evolved form of the water starter Froakie. Aside from the usual Torrent ability all Water starters have (Which raises the power of its Water moves), it also has the ability Protean, which changes it's typing to the latest move it used. In Sun/Moon, Greninja also has the ability Battle Bond, which transforms him into his stronger form Ash-Greninja after defeating a Pokemon. Greninja's signature move is Water Shuriken. Not only does it hit up to 5 times, it also allows Greninja to attack first.

Stop hating on Dark Pit and take out this weird thing. Also I hope Sakurai will announce that Pichu will never be in another smash bros game.

19 Zelda Princess Zelda is a fictional character in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda video game series, created by Shigeru Miyamoto and introduced in its original entry in 1986.

She is strong. Just take the time to master her.

20 Wii Fit Trainer

If they (yes "they" since both the male and female Trainers are present just like with the Villager and Robin) had been given an actual skin tone for this game and not retained their literally chalky-white skin I wouldn't mind them so much. Their Slenderman-esque appearance just creeps me out.

So random an inclusion. So not fun to use. Only included for unnecessy additional sex appeal.

Was only added because nobody requested her. Seriously.

21 Sans Sans or Sans the Skeleton is a character in the 2015 RPG Undertale created by Toby Fox. He is a lazy, pun-loving skeleton who is a supporting protagonist in the "pacifist" and "neutral" routes of Undertale, and a heroic antagonist/final boss of the "genocide" route. He is known for his incredibly difficult boss fight, bad puns, and the phrases "geeetttt dunked on!!!" and "you're gonna have a bad time."... read more

As a Mii costume, but even that needs to go

22 Lucario Lucario is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Created by Ken Sugimori, Lucario first appeared as a central character in the film Pokémon: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, and later appeared in the video games Pokémon Diamond and Pearl and subsequent sequels, also appearing in various merchandise, spinoff titles and animated and printed adaptations of the franchise.

Get this off the list

23 Link Link refers to several different incarnations of the same protagonist of Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series.
24 Rosalina Rosalina, known as Rosetta in Japan, is a major character in the Mario Franchise created by Nintendo. She first appeared in the 2007 Mario Game, Super Mario Galaxy for the Nintendo Wii and later returned for the game's sequel in 2010. Since then, she has been featured in many main-series Mario Games and many spinoffs. She has appeared as a playable character in Super Mario 3D World for the Nintendo Wii U in 2013 and is a playable character in the Mario Kart series and Mario Party series. She also has come into Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS as a part of the large character roster.

Don't get me wrong about this. It's not that I hate Rosalina. In fact, I don't. It's just I don't think she will be able to make the cut in the next game. Rosalina's much of being a surprise character that nobody excepted to join in. Although she really deserved to be in the recent Smash Bros games, but I am sorry to say that it is not for the next game. And since there is no sequel for SMG2 in the works, she will be most likely rejected in favor of Daisy, to whom I think is more deserving of a spot in the next Smash Bros game than Rosalina.

You know, I don't care if a character is "high-tier" or not. I only care if they represent the series well enough in Smash Bros. Rosalina could easily be cut from Smash Bros because she isn't a major character. Princess Peach, who is number one on this list, is one of the biggest characters in Nintendo; appearing hundreds of times. While some characters, like Shulk, Duck Hunt, Villager,etc., represent an entire francise or era in video games; Rosalina is but a fraction of Nintendo's largest and most important series.

Rosalina is another high tier character that has a very unique playstyle with luma by her side, akin to a puppeteer and their puppet, Rosaluma offers a great variety of approaches and mind games with luma at play. She can also counter any projectile with ease.

Garbage character from a terrible game who's incidentally overpowered. And people wonder why she's the most hated Mario character?

25 Cuphead Cuphead is the titular main protagonist of the indie run and gun video game, Cuphead. Cuphead is Mugman's irresponsible older twin brother and, like the rest of his family, lives on Inkwell Isle. He is usually played by the first player and, as a result, was the default character for Player One before the update in April 2019, after which the first player can choose whether to play as him or Mugman.

A Mii costume, but has as much business being in the game in any way, shape, or form as Sans
