Editing User:The Jacketed Terrapin/List of characters who don't appear in-game

{{draft}}
This is a list of characters who make an appearance in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, but are not a fighter, a summon character, an item, an enemy, a moveset element, a stage element, or a collectible (trophy, sticker, spirit, or Mii costume).

Instead, these characters only appear in circumstances that are otherwise not gameplay-related and appear nowhere else in the game. These can include ''Smash 64''{{'}}s [[congratulations screen|congratulations screens]], ''Melee''{{'}}s [[opening movie]], the [[character posters]] for ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', and the character trailers for ''[[List of Super Smash Bros. 4 character trailers|Smash 4]]'' and ''[[List of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character trailers|Ultimate]]''.

==''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''==
{{SSB|Ness}}'s congratulations screen features [[Paula]], [[Jeff]], [[Poo]], a [[Mr. Saturn]], Lucky and Nice of the {{s|wikibound|Runaway Five}}, the {{s|wikibound|Frankystein Mark II}}, and an {{s|wikibound|Ultimate Octobot}}.

==''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
The [[opening movie]] contains several characters who otherwise make no other appearance in the game.

In a scene where {{SSBM|Samus}} is fighting [[Ridley]] on Ceres, the latter can be seen holding in his talons the capsule that contains the [[metroidwiki:Metroid Hatchling|baby]] [[Metroid (creature)|Metroid]] that appeared in ''Metroid II'' and ''Super Metroid''. While a trophy of a Metroid does appear, no specific mention of the baby is present in the game.

In a scene depicting several moments from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'', the characters that can be seen are [[Navi]], {{s|zeldawiki|Saria}}, {{s|zeldawiki|Malon}}, the younger version of [[Zelda]], {{s|zeldawiki|Darunia}}, {{s|zeldawiki|Ruto}}, {{s|zeldawiki|Rauru}}, and {{s|zeldawiki|Impa}}.

A fight scene shows {{SSBM|Fox}} having a dogfight with [[Wolf O'Donnell]].

Nice of the Runaway Five appears in the scene of {{SSBM|Ness}} using Teleport into Onett, where he and Lucky are knocked away by him. <!--Lucky technically makes an in-game appearance in the form of the Onett Message Board, which has his face on it-->

In the following scene, several Pokémon who only appear in the opening movie can be seen. These include {{pkmn|Oddish}}, [[Abra]], {{pkmn|Machop}}, {{pkmn|Weepinbell}}, {{pkmn|Slowbro}}, {{pkmn|Drowzee}}, {{pkmn|Krabby}}, {{pkmn|Cubone}}, [[Hitmonlee]], {{pkmn|Rhydon}}, {{pkmn|Electabuzz}}, {{pkmn|Magmar}}, {{pkmn|Pinsir}}, {{pkmn|Sentret}}, {{pkmn|Natu}}, {{pkmn|Pineco}}, {{pkmn|Gligar}}, {{pkmn|Snubbull}}, {{pkmn|Ursaring}}, {{pkmn|Phanpy}}, and {{pkmn|Elekid}}.

Only [[:File:RyomaTrophy3DS.png|Ryoma]] and [[:File:XanderTrophy3DS.png|Xander]] make any sort of in-game appearance, with both of them appearing as downloadable trophies exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version. Additionally, Elise makes an appearance in [[:File:Corrin poster.jpg|Corrin's poster]].
