Although Richter is an [[Echo Fighter]] of Simon, Sakurai noted that Simon's moveset takes inspiration from Richter's ''Castlevania'' techniques to a greater extent as well, making them derivatives of each other.<ref name=Direct/> On a related note, there is | Although Richter is an [[Echo Fighter]] of Simon, Sakurai noted that Simon's moveset takes inspiration from Richter's ''Castlevania'' techniques to a greater extent as well, making them derivatives of each other.<ref name=Direct/> On a related note, there is one notable mechanical difference between them: Richter's [[Holy Water]] possesses the {{b|aura|effect}} effect, whereas Simon's possesses the [[flame]] effect. This gives him situational differences in certain matchups: unlike Simon, he can harm red {{b|Pikmin|species}}, but he cannot remotely detonate explosives (such as {{b|Bomb|Link|}}s). Otherwise, their moves are identical. Aesthetically, Richter has his own taunts and victory poses in reference to ''Rondo of Blood'' and ''Symphony of the Night'', while his Holy Water's flame is blue compared to Simon's red flame.<ref name=Direct/> | ||
