Clone

Line 185:

As stated above, ''[[Ultimate]]'' uses the term "Echo Fighter" to refer to certain clones based on development time. The term is only loosely related to how unique a character is, as some full clones are not marked as Echo Fighters despite their largely shared movesets, while Ken is marked as one despite being more distinct than some clones that aren't marked as Echo Fighters. Certain Echo Fighters are considered the same entity as their base fighter competitively; Daisy, Richter, and Dark Samus, due to their differences from their base fighters being competitively negligible; and Dark Pit, who does have notable moveset differences, but only in two attacks. On the character selection screen, Echo Fighters are positioned directly after their base fighter, and there exists an option to merge the portraits of the base fighter and the Echo Fighter in certain modes.

With ''Ultimate'' bringing back all veterans, every clone that was originally cut returns. However, most returning clones did not receive many new differences. In the transition from ''~~Smash 4~~'' to ''Ultimate'', however, Luigi and Ganondorf were both significantly decloned (with Luigi commonly being agreed to have become a pseudo-clone), and Link's new changes based off of ''The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild'' subsequently decloned both of his counterparts to an extent.
