**'''Pseudo-clone''': A character that has some shared attacks, animations and attributes with another character, similarly to a semi-clone. However, whereas semi-clones are still largely based on other characters, pseudo-clones are largely unique overall, and so calling them semi-clones would be somewhat misleading.

***An example in ''Smash'' would be [[Wolf]], who shares a small number of moves and animations with [[Fox]], but the vast majority of his moveset and attributes are entirely unique.

**'''Echo fighter''': An official designation given to a few specific clone characters in ''Ultimate''. While most of the characters designated as Echoes are extremely similar to their parent character, if not nigh-identical, {{SSBU|Ken}} was also designated as such despite being less similar to his parent character than a couple clones who weren't designated as an Echo, for example {{SSBU|Dr. Mario}}. As such, the term isn't exactly an official term for "clone", nor is it a defined classification based on how "cloned" a character is.

**'''Decloning''': The act of making a cloned character more unique in the transition from one game to another through giving them new moves, animations and altered attributes, sometimes in conjunction with the original character getting a few changes of their own as well. Also known as "Luigification" in the ''Smash'' community, referring to [[Luigi]], who initially started off as a clone of Mario in ''Smash 64'', but has been extensively decloned from the latter over time in later installments.
