"Toon Zelda & Sheik" are names that are stored on the Super Smash Bros. Brawl game disc. Though no such characters appear in the final retail version of the game, hackers discovered a character file package in the game that was designated for the two, indicating that the pair was once planned to appear in the game.

Some speculate that "Toon Sheik" may refer to Tetra, as Sheik has never been depicted in a Wind Waker-influenced art style. However, noting that Sheik had never been depicted in a Twilight Princess-influenced art style either prior to Brawl, along with the choice of the name used, it may be more probable that the developers were planning on designing a new Sheik model, in the same manner as what was done with the standard version of the character in Brawl, or that such a model had been designed but ultimately unused in any of the Zelda games. Because the programming is incomplete, the original intentions remain unknown.

Some have speculated that these characters will be available through hacking or download. There is no evidence to support such a rumor, and Masahiro Sakurai has denied that downloadable content will be made available in the future for Brawl.
