While commonly theorized to represent the ''Pokémon'' characters {{pkmn|Plusle}} and {{pkmn|Minun}}, as their Japanese names are pronounced as '''''Pura'''suru'' and '''''Mai'''nan'' and [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E3%83%97%E3%83%A9%E3%83%9E%E3%82%A4 プラマイ (''Pramai'')] is actually a Japanese colloquial word that literally means "plus or minus", the [[Ice Climbers]] have separate character files for the two characters. In addition, each of the other Pokémon use their official transliterated Japanese names in the game's files (for example, Mewtwo is used in the game's files, rather than the Japanese pronunciation of the name, ''Myūtsū''), and Plusle and Minun's Japanese names are ''Prasle'' and ''Minun''. The in-game trophy for Plusle and Minun is also labeled as "prasle" and "minun" in the code, farther discrediting the two Pokémon. "pra_mai" has alternatively been theorized to represent "Every Player", as ''Mai'' can be translated from Japanese to English to mean "every", while ''Pra'' can be seen as a shortening of the word "player". "Every Player" has been theorized to be either a slot for the Random button on the [[character selection screen]], or to represent [[Mii]]s. | ||
*"mewtwo" can be reasonably assumed to be [[Mewtwo]], who appeared in ''[[Melee]]''. "mewtwo" has the most unused data out of the other scrapped characters, all of which are empty: an [[Music (SSBB)#Scrapped victory themes|unused fanfare]], a graphics effect file (<code>ef_mewtwo.pac</code>), and a [[Wii Remote selection sound]]. As Mewtwo is an arguably unjustified cut for being the only removed character to not be a clone, this suggests it was strongly intended for inclusion in ''Brawl'', but later did not make the final cut to the roster. | *"mewtwo" can be reasonably assumed to be [[Mewtwo]], who appeared in ''[[Melee]]''.
