Name one person that is too minor in their alt. If you ask me, there is too little changes in Young Isaac compared to the original. Theres no point in bothering, because you wont even notice in the game

What?
Alright, first of all, it says right up top that alt costumes aren't just color swaps, and as the change between shiny and normal is just color...yeah.
Second off, I don't rule over you. You're not overruled, your statement is.

No, they are different. So's the hair.

The clothes and the hair aren't THAT different. The MAIN difference in the clothing is Young Isaac's enormous cape that HIDES most of his clothes, and what little you do see looks a LOT like older Isaac. And the hair isn't THAT much different. Small changes in hair is hardly worth the extra effort for changing a character's costume.

What you're suggesting is like making Young Link or Toon Link an alternate costume for Link. Giving his older self features of his younger self doesn't make sense because he never had those features as his older self. And don't even bother mentioning how Link can have an old or young version, because there's a big difference:

-Link, regardless of the age of his incarnation, is the triumphant hero of the story. Younger versions of Link have gone through their whole games and won.

-Young Isaac, despite being brave, is ultimately weak and naive. The extent of his efforts is pretty much almost getting brutally murdered by a pair of violent magicians. Not very heroic, is it?

Righto, so Young Isaac can't be Isaac's alt...why, exactly?
Is it too minor of a change, or what? Because I'm damn sure that some of these other alts are also, by those standards, too minor.
Like say, how all of the pokemon's alts are too simple.
Y'know, Here's an idea for alts for Pokemon; Their older/younger evolutionary forms. Bulbasaur for Ivysaur, Wartortle for Squirtle, Wigglytuff for Jigglypuff, Raichu for Pikachu, Riolu(A particularly tall one) for Lucario, and um...Charcoal for Charizard?()
And don't give me any of that different character bullcrap, because it's the same character just older/younger. It works for Ike, doesn't it(Alt is Radiant Dawn Ike, Also known as OLDER IKE)? I don't have a clue for Deoxys though. Does his movelist make use of the different forms? Otherwise I'd suggest one of those.

Evolved/prevolved forms of Pokemon are completely different from their current forms. What are you going on about? That comparison doesn't work with humans.

I don't think Pokémon need alternate costumes. They don't even wear clothes in the games. Just maybe give each colour change a small accessory as before (except for the shiny version, but the shiny Pikachu can keep Red's hat). It would also be nice to see the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon scarves in a colour change, as it wasn't really referenced to in Brawl in any way.

If it's too much work, just recolour all the colour changes as normal, but give one a scarf.

Well we already came up with something for Pikachu.

Yes, and in what game was Pikachu wearing a Party Hat?
I can by Shades Squirtle, but not that.

Super Smash Bros.

:/

Only pokemon that should have an alt costume (not counting little things like scarfs and whatnot) is Mewtwo imo. He should have his armor from the first movie. Yeah, I know it wasn't in a game, but then again, Lucario only talked in his movie.

I agree. Mewtwo armor was fucking badass.

Pokemon should have shiny colors as one pallette swap, but alternate costumes should be just adding a piece of clothing.
Pikachu - Party Hat
Mewtwo - Armour
Jiggs - Bow
Squirtle - Shades
Ivysaur, Charizard, Lucario, and Deoxys I dunno, maybe have the scarves from Mystery Dungeon.

Ivysaur can be the female one with the seed, Charizard can wear a scarf from Mystery Dungeon.

That works it out.

For Lucario, I'd love to see something Aaron related, maybe just the hat and cloak. Idk, I know it's not from the game, but like I said, his ability to speak is from the movie, and the hat looks cool... that all I got.
