'''Character customization''', officially '''character creation''' ({{ja|キャラ作り|Kyara Tsukuri}}, ''character building''), referred to as '''Custom Move Sets''' ({{ja|カスタマイズ必殺ワザ|Kasutamaizu Hissatsuwaza}}, ''Customize Special Techniques'') in the Smash Direct, is a feature in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. It allows players to alter several fundamental properties of playable characters and [[amiibo]], particularly their [[special move]]s. All non-[[DLC]] characters can replace each of their default special moves with one of two variations unlockable through gameplay, with the exception of {{SSB4|Palutena}} and the {{SSB4|Mii Fighter}}s, who instead have a selection of completely different specials, which are all unlocked from the start. Certain characters, such as {{SSB4|Mega Man}}, have moves that appear to function significantly differently as well. In ''Smash 4'', the height and weight of Mii Fighters are customizable as well, affecting their speed and other attributes.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', only {{SSBU|Mii Fighter}}s can be customized, with custom equipment and custom moves for other characters removed. Mii Fighters can still be customized with special moves and outfits, and additionally can have their voices adjusted as well, but their height and weight are not customizable. Effects similar to those of custom equipment are present in ''Ultimate'''s [[Spirits (menu)|Spirits]] mode.

Before the [[Super Smash Bros. Direct]] where the feature was officially announced, in June 2013, [[Masahiro Sakurai]] had stated that players will be able to customize characters in the 3DS game and transfer those customizations to the Wii U game. He had also stated that the customizations would not be alternate costumes, with exception of the Mii Fighters, and that they would not have to be unlocked through repeated tasks.<ref>[http://www.joystiq.com/2013/06/13/wii-u-and-3ds-smash-bros-will-not-have-cross-platform-play-wil/ Joystiq: "No cross-platform play for Smash Bros on 3DS and Wii U"]</ref>
