List of characters in the Super Smash Bros. series

This page is a list of playable characters in the Super Smash Bros. series. Characters are listed in alphabetical order by their name. Question marks indicate that the character has neither been confirmed nor dismissed to appear as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Notes:


 * 1. Stated by Sakurai on the official website, "There’s a character named Ness who has appeared in the Smash Bros. series up until now, and Lucas is very similar." Whether the words "up until now" include or seclude the game under development is still unclear.


 * 2. 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."


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


 * 4. 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.


 * 5. 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.


 * 6. In an interview, David Hayter was asked which character from Brawl he would most enjoy defeating. His response included Jigglypuff, among other characters, though it is not officially confirmed that Jigglypuff will be in the game.
