:::::::The reason I left the phrasing on the article open-ended is because SSB4's DLC development is open-ended. Should Shovel Knight appear in SSB4 DLC in any capacity, it will need to be updated. This is different from claims that are either disproven on a game's release, as well as different from claims which are admitted to be fakes (Artsy Omni's Rayman, for example).

Okay, I know this isn't the place, but I just have to get this out there.
*RANT START! Okay, sorry to say this, but Shovel Knight appearing in Smash is about as sensible as Cars getting a third movie. He's an indie character that's had one game that's been out for a year and hasn't even been released in Japan yet or gotten a sequel (If you don't count Plauge of Shadows). Him appearing in Smash as DLC would be a dangerous move on Nintendo, HAL, SORA, and Bandai-Namco's parts, it's not a good decision critically, or financially, there are so many better options, Professor Layton, Shantae, hell, I'd even say Arle Nadja from Puyo Puyo would be a better option despite her only appearing outside of Japan once because she's at least an icon. END RANT!*
Sorry about that, but I've got to say, they've admitted this to be a fake several times, then again, they have been also hinting at him being in the game, along with hints of other content I believe, but still, that's not saying much I don't think considering what I said above. In the end they've stated that it's more fake then it is real. [[User:Nintenzilla|Nintenzilla]] ([[User talk:Nintenzilla|talk]]) 12:47, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
:If they've stated, "That'd be great, but unfortunately it's just an error" Then why should we still consider it a possibility? [[User:Nintenzilla|Nintenzilla]] ([[User talk:Nintenzilla|talk]]) 12:53, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
::It really doesn't make sense if you think about it. [[User:Nintenzilla|Nintenzilla]] ([[User talk:Nintenzilla|talk]]) 13:04, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
:::#Layton isn't an indie character. He's third party.
:::#The creators of SK probably wouldn't want his status in Smash (if anything) to be leaked.
:::#Pretty sure Cars is getting a third movie.
:::[[File:Aidanzapunksignature.png|20px]][[User:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: black;">'''Aidan'''</span>]], [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|<span style="color: orange">'''Master of Speed and Aura'''</span>]][[File:AidanzapunkSignaturesmall.PNG]] 13:13, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
::::I was referring to guest characters in general, as Sakurai stated, it's a special case, and all of the guest characters are special in their own ways, and yes, I know that Cars is getting a third movie, I just couldn't find a better comparison. So if he was leaked, why didn't they just say nothing, at the very least with the Shantae thing, he didn't flat out say that picture had nothing to do with Shantae, here, they flat-out say SK isn't in the game. So if he is, they're currently hiding with lies, which is causing alot of tension. If they really know SK is in the game along with all the other content they've been teasing, then why would they lie? (Also what would Butt-Butt have that would make him a worthy guest character along with Sonic, Ryu, Mega Man and Pac-Man?) [[User:Nintenzilla|Nintenzilla]] ([[User talk:Nintenzilla|talk]]) 13:50, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
:I'm sorry, but I just feel the need to point out how utterly awful of a comparison that is. Cars 2 made TRIPLE of it's $200 Million budget. If that alone doesn't make Cars 3 a financial treat, I don't know what will. It also made over '''Ten Billion Dollars in merchandise''' BEFORE Cars 2 was even released. It was also reported that Cars 2 was a massive financial success, all-in-all, so I think it's safe to say that a third Cars movie would be a non-risk. [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 16:00, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
::Alright, alright, it was a bad comparison, I get it, (Although I was more refering to how the second one was critically panned). If anyone has a better comparison, I'd love to hear. [[User:Nintenzilla|Nintenzilla]] ([[User talk:Nintenzilla|talk]]) 16:22, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
Pretty sure this kind of discussion is more suited to the forum (which even has a thread about Shovel Knight) than to a talk page. -[[User:Menshay|Menshay]] ([[User talk:Menshay|talk]]) 16:39, 26 October 2015 (EDT)
This conversation has long ceased to be on topic. Please try to stay focused on the point of a talk page: discussing the article at hand. We have a section relating to the Shovel Knight rumor because of its high amount of press time and the fact that there being a Shovel Knight amiibo was true. Barring any further developments related to this rumor, I don't see much reason to keep discussing it here. Use the forums where appropriate.

:::#Eh, Bomberman isn't my top choice overall (Inkling, Paper Mario, or Bandanna Dee are higher than him), but out of the third-party options, he's one of the best choices (maybe beaten by Rayman.)

:::<small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]]. Or maybe [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta.]] </small>  23:15, 2 October 2015 (EDT)
::::Personally, I think there's [[wikipedia:Professor Hershel Layton|a different third party character]] that passes both Rayman and Bomberman; he's only been on Nintendo consoles (excluding one mobile spinoff that didn't actually feature Layton himself), all his fans love him and his games, he's considered Level-5's most successful franchise, and frankly, he'd fit right in with the rest of the quirky and fun roster.

:::::I'd love for him to be added. But Rayman and Bomberman are more realistic choices at least IMO. Also, according to most polls, they're higher on the ballot.

My two cents, considering how non-widespread it is, let's not add it. If K. Rool or Bomberman gets revealed, then it may be worth mentioning. (Wolf has been in almost every "leak" though, so I wouldn't put it on the page if only he gets announced)  [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User talk:Laikue|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Laikue|contribs]]) 03:15, 3 October 2015 (EDT)
:I would say it needs mentioned if all three get added or it suddenly goes viral. All three are relatively highly requested (particularly Wolf and Rool) and are logical choices for someone making a fake leak, so even if one got it we should ride it out to see who else is added. <small><font color="black">---</font><font color="orange">Preceding unsigned comment added by</font> [[Special:MyPage|<font color="black">BOO</font>]]! <font color="orange">Or maybe</font> [[User:Nutta Butta|<font color="orange">Nutta.</font>]] </small>  16:14, 7 October 2015 (EDT)

However both Roger and Stealth are former NOA employees, however the other leaker remains a complete mystery. Stealth has managed to leak the Splatoon event in NYC and even know details about the April 1st Nintendo Direct, and Roger has been informed about future events such as Nintendo's E3 Digital Event, so it could very well turn out true.

== Is Shantae coming to Smash!? ==
First off, I'm having trouble finding the link for this, so if anyone has it, it would be great if you could post it. About a week ago a picture was posted onto Twitter by Wayforward's director of him with Sakurai, while at first it was thought to be a con, it was later found out through tracking that the photo was taken in California at Wayforward headquarters, and Sakurai visited them the same day. He did the same thing with Monolith Soft  and Platnum Games to get the rights to their characters, so it's possible that he went to Wayforward to get the rights to Shantae. Thoughts on this matter?

Rool, and Waddle Dee are all being considered, so assuming that there's no problems (And if this is real) this is what I assume the final roster would be. Now that's not to assume we could, at the very least, get two more characters to balance things out.

Smashified was based on the Wii U version's css, not the 3DS version. Also, Maxwell seems like such a Sakurai pick, Bomberman is pretty popular, but tends to be overshadowed by Snake. Also, this is a new render and he did guess that there'd be up to six characters, just like what that Reddit user found. Still, I'm very salty about this, I'm not going to jump the gun yet.

== The Shovel Knight Rumor's Legitimacy ==
YGC has stated several times it's not going to happen on various occasions, and people continue to believe it's still happening, after doing extensive research I found that they said that the listing for the Amiibo on the Spanish site was an error, and what I believe they were referring to was the fact that the Amiibo was listed as a "Smash" Amiibo, rather then in his own series. And even more damaging to the rumor's credibility is that they wouldn't be aloud to hint, speak, or do even refer to it if it was happening due to an NDA being involved. All of this evidence heavily suggests that the rumor is indeed false. [[User:Nintenzilla|Nintenzilla]] ([[User talk:Nintenzilla|talk]]) 09:16, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Not to mention, due to the scale of Xenoblade Chronicles X, a stage would be extremely easy to fake, just take a snapshot, photoshop the characters out of it, and bingo, "LEAK". Not to mention that the image for Midgar was taken from a previous screenshot shown along with Cloud's reveal. Wolf was also probably made based off of a fanmade image using his Brawl model, but was heavily photoshopped to look like his appearance in SFZ. And finally the shading on the lines on the CSS are thinner compared to how they previously were. With all this in mind, it's pretty much fake, although the amount of detail is impressive, these things are easy to fake if enough time is taken. Stay away from leaks kids.

== Cleaning out the page ==
Okay, I'm about to get started on cleaning this page out to be only notable rumors, so I'm going to ask for the community's opinions on the rumors I'm unsure about:
'''Lucas replacing Ness''': Given that this was officially confirmed, do we really need it listed here?
'''Radio interview''': Quick google search gives no results except SmashWiki- keeping in mind that this is old and Google might have just bumped out all of the results, can someone who was around the fandom during Brawl confirm whether or not this was widespread?
'''Clone removal''': Kind of a combination of the two above. Also, removal of clones was assumed a lot during Smash 4's production too, and most people will probably expect it in Sma5h. Everyone seems to assume they're being removed no matter what, so I don't know how notable this really is.
'''Third third-party''': Not actually planning on removing the section itself, but can it be shortened and the subsections removed and replaced with a single sentence reading "Mega Man, Geno, Leon S. Kennedy, and a second Sonic the Hedgehog character were all brought up as possibilities", maybe with a couple extra notes on the ones that had high amounts of evidence backing them up like Leon?
'''Namco worker''': I've heard about all of the SSB4 rumors except this one (and Lucina, see below for it though), so I'm a little doubtful on it. Was it really widespread?
'''Lucina rumor''': I know that it's been covered this one wasn't widespread and is only being kept because it showed how high-tech rumors can be, but given that Omni's Rayman was more widespread and covers the same thing, can we remove it now?

:I wouldn't be so hasty in removing them. The majority of rumors in question were all pretty widespread back in the day. Before Brawl's release, I do particularly remember lots of people claiming that Sakurai was cutting all the clones from the roster (They even referenced this in the old Flash series ''Smash Kingdom''), and I remember hearing about the radio interview back in the day. Personally, what I think is best for the page would be to condense all the "third third-party" sections into one section with sub-points, and remove the Lucina rumor. The Lucina rumor wasn't widespread at all, and Smash Wiki was the only place I ever saw it covered. <span style="font-family:AR JULIAN; font-size:12pt">[[User:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:blue">Chuck</span>]][[User talk:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:blue">Norris</span>]]</span>[[File:24.png|23px]]  14:23, 4 January 2016 (EST)
::My biggest problem with the removal of clones is that it doesn't have anything to back it up like most of the other rumors - it isn't pictures or interviews or anything, it's just false assumptions.
