::::::::In general, doing A on one page and B on a closely-related page is not the best option, because then people get confused as to which one is the correct way. Now obviously confusion can still happen, as shown by this discussion existing, but at least in this case we can point out the methodology and explain "we're actually doing A on all the pages, it just happens to look like B on this one page because [reason]".

:::::::::Sorry I'm doing a bad job communicating here. Why must we operate under the supposition that we have to follow the SSB64 website for labeling default costumes across all alt costume pages? With the "rule" me and SK agree on, I just don't see SSB64 website as a good reason for using the rule you're talking about in Smashwiki.

:::::::::I guess I'm trying to say that labeling default costumes as "Default" works here, on Smashwiki. How the official website labels it as standard colors is A-ok, it works, but for that website, not as well here on Smashwiki.

::::::::::Whether it "works" is a matter of opinion. My opinion is that it feels very wrong to just slap a "default" label on most characters, with their brightly- and distinctly-coloured options, and instead reserve the term for cases where a simple colour name is simply not feasible. It's a pattern that has held successful so far and I don't really see much of a reason to change it other than a difference in opinion.
