A victory pose is a short (often random) animation that any character does after winning a match while the losers stand in the background, applauding politely. Typically, every character will have three different poses that can be performed at the end of a match by holding down a certain button. Also note that in Super Smash Bros. Jigglypuff doesn't clap and instead just moves her head to the right and does nothing else. (But she does clap in Super Smash Bros. Melee and in Super Smash Bros. Brawl) Ice Climbers also don't clap and instead cry, referencing the screen seen when failing a mountain in Ice Climber. Wario will cease clapping every few seconds to open his moth and put his hands around it.
