Repetitive victory poses in Spectate

Okay, remember when I was in Spectate in Smash Ultimate? Sometimes I would see Pyra and Mythra (from the Xenoblade Chronicles universe) as two of the fighters in this mode, and when they normally win, one of six victory poses would be chosen, depending on direction and character:

• 

  Pyra's left victory pose

• 

  Pyra's right victory pose

• 

  Pyra's up victory pose

• 

  Mythra's left victory pose

• 

  Mythra's right victory pose

• 

  Mythra's up victory pose

Well, I remember usually seeing them being on a 2-fighter team, which means with one partner, and for some reason, when they win with that partner, I only see Pyra's right victory pose being used, in which, yeah, that could get repetitive. However, I saw that King K. Rool uses all his victory poses also in this mode. Pac-Man, on the other hand, well I only saw one of his poses in Spectate.

• 

  That's the one.

• 

  Nope. Haven't seen that in Spectate.

• 

  Wrong. That's another one I haven't seen in Spectate.

There's a reason for this.

In Spectate, victory poses depend on direction because the victory pose is determined by the inputs the fighter made during the original fight.

How would you make some variety?

If you're not in Spectate, hold , or on the D-pad during the "GAME!" or "TIME!" screen. Holding typically results in a random selection.
