*[[Master Hand]] has an idle pose, but it is never seen in normal gameplay because the AI never allows enough time between his attacks. It can be seen if Master Hand is controlled by the player, either by using the [[Master Hand glitch]] in ''Melee'' or playing as him in [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]] in ''Ultimate''; for his idle pose, he simply clenches his fist. | *[[Master Hand]] has an idle pose, but it is never seen in normal gameplay because the AI never allows enough time between his attacks.

***{{SSBU|Sora}}'s stance changes entirely when holding an item, slinging the Keyblade over his shoulder while holding the item with his free hand, a reference to his Valor Form battle stance from ''Kingdom Hearts II''. | |||
*Some characters have an animation that actually is part of their regular standing animation, but are often mistaken for idle poses. Unlike idle poses, they play at regular intervals instead of randomly (and they can be seen in the character customization screen on both 3DS and Wii U versions, or by holding a item, where idle poses never play). Some examples include {{SSBU|Daisy}}, {{SSBU|Sheik}} and {{SSBU|Roy}}. | *Some characters have an animation that actually is part of their regular standing animation, but are often mistaken for idle poses.

*Lucina, Dark Pit and {{SSBU|Ken}} are the only characters to share their default idle stance and idle poses with another character. Richter has a unique idle stance, but he has the same periodic idle poses as Simon. | |||
**Daisy, Dr. Mario, Roy, Inkling Boy, Richter, and female Byleth share the same initial frame of idle as their original counterparts despite having altered idle stances, likely so that their shared animations can transition seamlessly into their idle pose. | |||

*Since ''Brawl'', | *Since ''Brawl'', six characters have not had the traditional two idle poses, those being [[Peach]], [[Zelda]] (prior to ''Ultimate''), [[Jigglypuff]], {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} (''Brawl'' only), [[Byleth]], and [[Steve]]. Peach has four, the most of any fighter; both Zelda and Pokémon Trainer had three before losing one in ''Ultimate'', both characters are the only fighters to lose an idle pose; Jigglypuff and Byleth only have one (though in Byleth's case it differs between the male and female variants, effectively resulting in two); Steve does not have any idle poses at all. Jigglypuff technically did not have an idle pose before ''Ultimate'', as its idle pose was simply part of its regular animation, but it has always had two identical idle poses programmed in. | ||
*[[Steve]] is the only character in the series to lack idle poses in any game. While idle poses did not exist in ''Smash 64'', and {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBM|Link}}, {{SSBM|Samus}}, {{SSBM|Yoshi}}, {{SSBM|Ness}}, {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}, the {{SSBM|Ice Climbers}}, and {{SSBM|Roy}} did not have any in ''Melee'', they all did have idle poses from ''Brawl'' onward (or in Roy | *[[Steve]] is the only character in the series to lack idle poses in any game.
