Line 68:
** An AI glitch in ''Melee'' will occasionally cause a giant Yoshi fought in Classic mode to jump off the edge of the stage as soon as the match begins, giving you the victory in under five seconds.
* [[Hate Dumb]]: Lucario has amassed one among Mewtwo fans due his perceived [[Replacement Scrappy]] status (Never mind the fact that Mewtwo was planned for Brawl and could still show up in Smash 4 as DLC) as well as his "clone" status (which he isn't). It became truly embarrassingly pathetic when he was revealed for Smash 4.
** Zero Suit Samus is developing one of these among some due to wearing high-heel shaped rocket boots in Smash 4, never mind the fact that their entire purpose is to improve on her weaknesses from Brawl (She has more power and better recovery). It got even worse whenever two of her alts were revealed to be a sports bra and shorts which bought forth more cries of sexism and objectification... [[Epic Fail|even though those were outfits in two other ''Metroid games''.]]
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]:
** There was a letter sent to [[Nintendo Power]] describing characters the writer would like to see in the game. One of the characters was Lucario. Nintendo Power sarcastically replied that it was a good character choice. Cue ''Brawl'', and Lucario is a playable character.
Line 78:
** Roy's not falling too behind. After all, he IS our boy!
** Villager became characterized as a homicidal maniac among the fanbase when he was revealed due to his never-changing facial expression in the heat of battle.
** Chrom gets this in reverse: fans characterize him as being a major loser thanks to the fact that Lucina and Robin's reveal trailer had him obliterated by Captain Falcon off-screen, and he was passed up as playable in favor of two different characters.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: "FALCON... PUNCH!" Or hell, anything that Captain Falcon says.
** Whenever eager fans mistook Greninja's reveal trailer as setting up for Mewtwo, they got mad. Videos like these mocking their expectations were soon made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TH3QsczwIa4
Line 109 ⟶ 110:
** Villager was this due to Sakurai's previous statements on thinking that an Animal Crossing Fighter wouldn't fit in with Smash Bros.
** Mega Man is a minor example: he was requested a lot for a future Smash game, but many were convinced that he'd never make it due to how poorly he's been treated by Capcom as of late.
** Mr. Game & Watch in Melee as well as the Ice Climbers. Marth was this for American audiences, but Roy was this to everyone because his game wasn't even out then!
** Speaking of un-expected Classic characters, it's hard to tell who, if ''anyone'' expected Duck Hunt Dog of all characters to be made playable.
** Rosalina and Bowser Jr. weren't exactly expected either thanks to the Mario part of the roster being seemingly large enough.
** Both Lucina as well as Robin were more or less unexpected thanks to the fact that everybody thought Chrom was going to be the Fire Emblem newcomer.
* [[They Just Didn't Care]]: After three games after playing more or less the same, Ganondorf's Smash Bros treatment absolutely ''reeks'' of this. While it's somewhat understandable that he'd be a Captain Falcon clone in ''Melee'', him keeping his clone moveset in not one, but two more games is pretty much inexcusable thanks to the wide array of abilities he has in his home franchise.
* [[Tier-Induced Scrappy]]: In the ''Melee'' competitive community, many from the east coast ''hate'' Jigglypuff because, aside from her trolling-potent appearance, her mixed offense/defense game is extremely hard to counter, and she has a very effective finishing move, which is, of all things, her falling asleep. This infamy has slightly died down as of late, but now, she's considered top-tier.
** Also, Meta Knight in Brawl. He's so overpowered that he's usually handicapped in competitive play and was outright banned for a while.
** Smash 4 has a surprising example in Yoshi who is already considered to be one of the best characters in the game. Thanks to his high-speed and newfound killing power, Yoshi is ''A LOT'' more annoying to fight than he ever was.
* [[Wake Up Call Boss]]: Rayquaza, after the breeze of a fight against Petey Piranha. ▼
** Ditto for Little Mac, who hits like a freight train, is as fast as a rocket, and gets Super Armor on a lot of his moves meaning that a lot of your attacks won't even faze him. Combine that with a guaranteed OHKO attack, and his non-existent air game doesn't look to be much of a hindrance anymore...

Line 124 ⟶ 130:
** {{spoiler|Knowing that the Island of the Ancients could never be restored upon Tabuu's defeat, making R.O.B. the [[Last of His Kind]].}}
** The {{spoiler|three times that [[Taking the Bullet|one character submits to trophification to save another]]. And the first of those times, [[The Sadistic Choice|you get to decide which one is which.]]}}
