Notes:


 * 1. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Pokémon Trainer stays in the background. You take direct control of Squirtle, Ivysaur, or Charizard and control the Trainer only when switching between the three Pokémon. The set is listed under the name "Pokémon Trainer."


 * 2. In Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Sheik is not a stand alone character but a transformation of Princess Zelda.


 * 3. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Samus Aran can become Zero Suit Samus if her armor is destroyed, which will occur after performing a Final Smash. She will regain the armor if she performs another Final Smash.


 * 4. In an interview with Game Informer, Eiji Aonuma mentioned his designers submitted Ganondorf and Sheik's initial designs to Masahiro Sakurai for Brawl and that Sakurai's team then modified their appearance. However, it is unknown if Ganondorf is still in the game.


 * 5. In a newly released Japanese televison ad, it was revealed that certain stickers will only stick to certain characters. Some stickers were shown, and revealed that Lucario, Ness, and Jigglypuff all were playable characters though no official information has been announced.
