A clone character is a common inclusion in both the Super Smash Bros. series and other fighting games as well. It describes two or more characters that have nearly identical movesets with slight variations in the attacks. From the developer's perspective, a given character's model can be used as a base template from which to build another, and it is usually evident which one is the "original" and which is the clone.
Clones in SSB

Luigification
Luigification is a term named after Luigi. It's derived from Super Smash Bros. Melee where Luigi's moves were altered from the Mario Cloned moveset in the original game. It is when a character shares some moves of another, while still having some variation in terms of moveset or special attacks. In Brawl many of the cloned fighters in Melee underwent heavy Luigification.
