Sopo or SoPo, is a term used to refer to playing as only the lead Ice Climber which is Popo, often due to the trailer, Nana, being KO'd. The term comes from a combination of "solo" and "Popo" (the lead of the default costume). It is also sometimes known as Sona or SoNa for people who use Nana as their controllable climber.
Sopo/Sona is more of a legitimate character than the similar Nolimar, as Popo/Nana's regular moveset remains mostly effective when their fellow climber is absent. That said, he/she does lose significant effectiveness, such as not being able to use a meteor smash or most chaingrabs, and is unlikely to recover from moderately strong blows due to not having a fully-functional recovery.
