What the frig... ?!

Okay, so. Not even going to try to be encyclopedic at the moment. In the Master/Crazy Hand battle, some unknown condition will cause the hands to "die" with their HP well above zero; I didn't quite catch what it was. But their death is a much bright-colored phenomenon than normal, and they seem to... merge... Their HP display gets covered in black smoke that obscures any possible information gleaned from it. No damage, no name, no portait, no nothing.

Speaking of black smoke, they merge into this friggin' giant shadow scorpion thing! It's kinda reminiscent of SSE's Shadow Bugs from what it's made up of, and it can transform into a whole bunch of stuff like swords. It seems after whittling it down enough (with no idea what you're doing to it), it'll turn into a shadow clone of who you're currently playing as. Knock them out normally, and they'll... turn into a Smash Ball-like object; the display fog clears and reveals a portrait of the Smash emblem and the name "MASTER CORE." Beat the snot out of it to defeat it.

Nothing appears to be unlocked by defeating it, but it's... certainly something to witness.
