==My Relation to the ''Super Smash Bros.'' Series==
I've been an avid fan of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series ever since around 2006 or 2007 when I played ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. I'll admit that, aside from {{uv|Mario}} and {{uv|Pokémon}}, I never even heard of any of the characters or series in the game (Nope, not even {{uv|Zelda}}).
As a youngling, I only known whatever was on Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, or Disney Channel/Toon Disney, and even when it came to video games, I mostly got shoddy licensed-based games for the Game Boy Advance or PlayStation 2.
However, due to my new interest for ''Melee'', I soon discovered this series called ''History Behind Super Smash Bros. Melee'', which dealt in teaching about the origins of certain aspects in the game, such as characters and their movesets, stages and elements within them, and items and how they worked.
Because of it, I soon became a major Nintendo fan, and thanks to ''Melee'' and ''Brawl's'' tactic(?) of representing smaller or obscure series, it led me to become interested in anything Nintendo-published (as well as a few other non-Nintendo stuff) and speculate if a certain series has a chance to be acknowledged in the ''Smash'' games or not.

|I don't know where I got it from, but I have this idea in which every Link amiibo I own (that isn't part of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series) would have a nickname that starts with a certain lifestyle or hobby (usually fitting their game of origin in some way) followed by "Trash". Since the ''Smash''-series Link amiibo is the first amiibo of Link, he's pretty much the default of the line-up and has nothing that stands out about him.

|Fiora
**'''Masterpiece (''SSB4'') date''': September 9, 1988
|Named after [[Fiora]], a character from the {{uv|Xenoblade Chronicles}} series. The reasoning behind this name is a jab at ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''{{'}}s tendency to not spoil the plot twist that Sheik from ''Ocarina of Time'' is actually Zelda in disguise, despite the fact that the game also includes characters from the first ''Xenoblade Chronicles'' that are often considered to be "spoiler territory" as trophies, especially one of [[:File:MechaFioraTrophyWiiU.png|Mecha Fiora]].

|Named after {{s|wikipedia|Mariah Carey}}, who is most famous for singing the song "{{s|wikipedia|All I Want for Christmas Is You}}". The reasoning behind this name comes from a parody of the song by Matthew Taranto titled "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2ZAVR_np3E A Simple Request]". The red costume was chosen due to being the color scheme for Santa Claus's iconic outfit.

The white costume was chosen due to being the closest to resembling [[mariowiki:File:Princess Shokora Artwork - Wario Land 4.png|the color of Shokora's dress in her official artwork]] and also because I didn't want to use the default costume.

|Named after the scientific genus name for the {{s|wikipedia|Humboldt squid}}, ''Dosidicus''. This squid was chosen as they possess cells called "chromatophores" that allow them to change their body coloration, which represents how Inklings in ''Splatoon'' come in a variety of colors.
