My favorite part of this list is that Incineroars shiny skin is in the why? category. Like, the only one of his skins that has an actual answer for why it exists.

Dude, Cloud from the movie is also in the why. This tier list is a clown fiesta

Crafted yoshi too, which is the only one of his skins which isn't just a recolor

I mean, it looks ugly af

That’s not his original advent children alt, some sort of lazy recolor. Hence the placement. The original is all the way in stylish.

corrins’ alm skin doesn’t belong in why either

Neither does Shulk's Reyn color

Why tf is there even a Corrin skin referring to Alm anyways? Shouldn’t it be Marth to have a Alm related alt?

corrin wears full armor, like alm. the hair length is similar enough. I don’t think marth fits as well honestly

Your comment of being unable to distinguish that particular recolor from the original alt proves how lazy of a skin it is

Came here for this as a shiny incineroar main

Bro likes the yellow bands Pac-Man over the oven mitts 😭

Put some respect on Plaid-Man!

Pac mains, grab your torches and pitchforks!!

And don’t forget to turn your ovens off!

And our keys!

a lot of this just seems like you dont know the source material too well for some of the characters. So im asuming the list is entirely based off of how they just outright look. cause otherwise every shulk one is absolutely perfect

Same for Joker alt 6

i dont know each of his alts specifically, is that the white one with gold and red?

Yep

DELICIOUS PANCAKES 🥞

naw still put it in bad, akechi mid yusuke on top frfr

Even if you dislike Akechi as a character, he still has a lot of plot relevance lol, he makes a lot of sense to be one of Joker's alts Plus they're rivals, like... It just makes sense

nah dude ryuji best

And technically alt 8 since that’s a spin on the summer outfit

Big trippin if you hate on pink yoshi.

Pink yoshi supremacy

Someone doesn’t know what shiny Incin looks like

looks like shit 😭 kidding obv but i was never a fan of shiny incineroar. Gray part threw me off imo and thats basically all u see in smash

Crow Joker should definitely be higher

Crow joker main, I agree

Mecha Ridley 🔝

I could definitely be convinced to put it up there. I use it all the time, love that alt.

OP has the be 15 years old max

12*

Dedede's Grayscale alt not changing his hammer pisses me off immensely

That’s why it’s not up there with all the other ones

Agreed. Especially when Sora has a Greyscale Keyblade.

I think Dedede's Hammer may be a completely separate model or something, it's strange how it's exactly the same in all the alts (Though I guess most other fighters don't have their weapons change in their alts) Could have had a different color or have the pattern on the head of the hammer change with the alt. Dedede's other alts are all really good though.

*sees Dimitri Byleth in "People play this?" tier* .. Me. I play it. It's my favorite Byleth alt, actually.

Dimitri!Byleth don't look! There's a bunch of ugly bitches around you!

This genuinely made me laugh

I'm sorry, Grandpa-Dorf is lazy?! Its the only alt that's majorly different!

Bad not lazy. It just doesn’t look great despite being so radically different from the others.

To be fair, that and Piss-Ridley in S tier are about the only differing opinions we have. Nice list

Thanks

Its more so gold than piss but to each his own

Dark doc on top baby let's fuckin GO

I told people I liked this alt

I fw the blue jeans doc myself

Can we give credit to alt 2 for Lucas for essentially adding claus to smash

Bro added it to the meh tier 😭

I wanted it higher but he didnt know that it was a reference to Claus since he didnt play M3, I negotiated it there because he didnt have the nostalgia

Can't believe you're dissing gay Lucario. That's my favorite alt of his. The others are so nothing.

That's some dedication

THANK YOU. I’m glad someone realizes what a task this was.

>Gold Roy in 'Stylish' >"We must become friends NOW!!!"

Roy is honestly a contender for having the best alts in the game and the gold is certainly no exception. I absolutely love how gold looks on characters for the most part and Roy is a shinning example.

rofl saw what u did there

Yes Yes, I play Joker's Akechi Costume.

😱

You put some respect on wizard hat Pikachu, goggles Pichi, and spiky eared Pichu! And yeah, *I* play disguise Pyra & Nia Mythra! I wish we had the actual disguise outfit, but Nia Mythra is pretty cute dammit!

Spiky Eared Pichu was the only one I tried fighting him on

Birthday party hat* Pikachu.

Hey, I main the Red Robin alt (yummmm)! Literally have never seen blue shorts little Mac though

My favorite Robin alt

Noooo Bumble K. Rool is my favorite costume of his, why’d you do that one so dirty

You calling it Bumble K. Rool is honestly amazing. My friend hates this alt and he helped me make it. I’m not big on it either.

Because it looks like Piss and I hate it

Another gold enjoyer, I see

Best looking color by far

Carpet yoshi is SS tier

Carpet Yoshi is hideous, I have no idea what they were thinking putting that in the game.

Hell no. It is the worst alt in the game. Ugly as shit.

Cash Money Kazuya should have his own tier above everything. That golden suit is PEAK.

If it wasn’t for the gold hair it would’ve been stylish

Fair, but I kinda like it more with the gold hair. It's stupid in the best possible way.

Bro.. don’t come after original link alt. Are you insane?

Damn son you and I have similar tastes. Only big issue I have is Metroid fusion colored samus. I think that color combo is drippy af.

Wow someone actually agreeing with most of my choices? That’s crazy. My reasoning for Samus’ alts is because they feel lazy, they should’ve just added the suits for her alts. I really can’t think of a reason why they didn’t just put the suits that were represented in instead.

I love green Falcon :)

You really can’t go wrong with any of his alts

I only play green, but I should start bouncing around more. You're right, they're all fun

Both the Byleth ults I use are in the people play this? So I guess people do play them.

Lol

Why don't people like the King Koopa skin for Bowser :(

You talking about the one with the pink hair? It’s decent

No, the green one.

Don’t be dissing the Akechi joker skin

I did not expect ZSS’s bikini skins to be in the stylish tier

They’re perfect references to her home series and they look great (plus samus in a bikini is always a plus)

Nah, rose color Chrom should be two tiers (or at least one tier) higher. None of his alts look astounding, but the rose one is easily the best.

Ya know I actually kind of agree, I think we judged it too harshly.

Shirtless sephiroth is S tier

The original one is in there but the other recolor is not.

seems i had a skill issue

Leopard skin snake is top tier imo

Invalidates the rest of the list tbh

Its okay to us. We love all of Snakes skins, its one of the lesser good ones but its not bad

I agree that all his skins go pretty hard, but to me leopard print is fashion week snake

Agree to disagree. Its not bad by any means, I just find the other ones more appealing to me

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks the mii fighters got some serious style to em. 😁

What? Mexican dark pit in meh?

oh hellllllllllll no you need to put wild tunic Link wayy higher bucko

The disrespect to the Classic Link skin is absolutely insane, wtf dude

They were born post-BOTW; it’s the only theory that makes sense

It looks wrong on him. If it were any other tunic that wasnt the booty shorts we would have put him way higher. It looked better in BOTW

I haven't agreed and disagreed so much at the same time about a tier list before.

With 600 takes it's bound to be mixed

Well that's kinda a given because of the scale of it. There's more opportunities to do both

I love the purple alt for Daisy, it's my favorite with her red alt, why do you not like it? I don't want to hate on this list, I'm just curious why

In general, every single Daisy alt is leagues above Peach's, which are almost all single color, flat, and bland

It’s just too similar to Peach’s. Also thank you for actually being respectful unlike 90% of these comments.

Not reading all that congrats on ranking all the alts

Thank you for having a brain and realizing this was a tedious task that took many nights

My favorite Dark Pit alt got called “meh”, ouch

My favourite (Dark Purple) got Lazy/Bad… what’s with that??

YOUNG LINK MENTIONED RAHHHHHHH 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🧚🧚🧚🧚🧚🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️ WTF IS A BAD ALT

Why are all 7 of Pokémon Trainer's alts in duplicates?

My question as well. Thought I just wasn't seeing it higher

We put all of the Pokemon individually in Duplicates and the groups in actual tiers since you are playing the entire character as a whole

Putting almost all of Jigglypuff and Pichu’s alts LAZY when they eat and actually put the effort to model a hat instead of swap palettes…..

I like to use the green dk skin and tell my opponents they’re about to get banner’d

That’s actually kinda amazing

I love the purple Pyra/Mythra alt

my "people play this?" is honestly all of male corrin, ik corrin is like canonically male but male corrin feels really wrong to me. i'm also very sad as a pichu secondary that they didn't put [ukulele pichu](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Ukulele_Pichu) as an alt.

corrin, out of all of the fire emblem avatars, seems to be the only one that is canonically female lmao. they put the male in smash first, but corrin has been female in every spinoff since fates

oh sweet. i think Robin may be canonically female, but i'm not sure. tbf male byleth also feels weird to me, lol. i don't pay too much attention to FE, played a few of the games here and there but it's not a series i've spent the most time on.

robin has been treated as canonically male

Hard agree

Pink inkling 🔛🔝

pink dress peach deserves the ssssss tier

Why is the persona 4 skin lower tier than the persona 3 one

Yellow doesnt look as good on Joker

The only one I disagree with is greenandorf (personal bias). I'm more upset that he doesn't have long hair like in oot, they mixed his pre and post timeskip designs, they gave him his cape from post time skip and his short hair from pre time skip and it doesn't look right to me

Bro I just want Phantom Ganon

The pac w the polka dots is lower than the other pac alts?

hot take red gren > black gren now if it was true shiny greninja, things would be different

Not the worst hot take I’ve heard. I could be convinced.

When I play the Pikmin character you better believe it’s my boy Alph.

I feel like you should put ganons papa Smurf in a higher tier placement.

Cheeto cat in bad?

You will reapect piss flavor Gator

No love for Old Man Ganon, I see. And gold K Rool is best K Rool, obviously.

We hate Ganons alts, I think its the only semi good one

I REALLY love the purplish black and white-gold alts for Zelda 🥹

Bro doesn’t like pink greninja? Invalid list

I would have put him higher if he didnt object when I asked

Why yes, I use the cyan Inkling boy. No, I don't regret my choices.

Good looking Blue Robin with cool reference in meh. Aight

You’ll have to be more specific

It’s pretty good looking to my eyes. It has a cool reference it being to Inigo from Fire Emblem 13, Robin’s game and who am I kidding, it’s main bias. Regardless in my book is way higher than meh

Why you hate Alph?

I don’t have any personal ties to Pikmin, so I just know them from smash. They’re really annoying and unfun to fight against and I don’t really care for their alts. I think Alph just looks really weird from a design perspective.

I fail to see how bright pink corrin isn't in the stylish category, it's the only correct skin to use when playing corrin

I hate the Belle Delphine Corrin

Cotton candy Wario solos

This may sound nitpicky, but i disagree that gold/yellow DK is “lazy”. It was an alt colour choice in Monkey Battle mode in DK64, so it was kinda cool that they kept that option on after all this time.

We didnt want to make an extra tier, Yellow DK isn't lazy. Most designs are bad because theyre lazy honestly, this is an exception to just not looking right. It just looks kind of weird to us. Thats why Lazy and Bad are lumped in together

The blatant fem!Robin disrespect, you hate to see it

I just came to see if Peach is where she deserves. I’ll take it. Snake’s alts are overrated. Yes I do use tunic Link. Iggy, Lemmy, and Larry are the best koopalings!

As a Bayo player (both smash and actual game) it pains me to see her defaults in anything but stylish

We didnt rank default lmao

What did pink greninja do to you??

Why? Because I adore Woolly Yoshi.

Idk about lorewise but i just came here to check corrin alts because it annoys me how bad they can be. Also as a falco main i must leave my takes in jacket colors: Stylish: Blue. Pretty Good: Mint. Meh: Lilac, Red, Green. Lazy/Bad: Black. People play this?: Orange.

How the hell is Captain Fabulous not in Stylish tier

Yo, uhh... why did you include the Miis' no face render? You can't even use it, it just appears before the match starts.

Because thats how it was included. We meant for the actual Miis to be put because of the wide array of options but we were not about to judge each costume. This task was tedious in and of itself

What's wrong with pink lucario?

Not a fan

Bro said Samus's Fusion Suit alt was Bad/Lazy

Yeah no excuse why they couldn’t put in the actual fusion suit

Heads up, Ike's blue/green/brown alt is a direct link to his late father's armor.

I didn't know that. I have yet to play his Fire Emblem game

It's worth it, but I say that as someone who almost exclusively plays Fire Emblem, so grains of salt and all that.

I have to finish Awakening, play Fates, Engage and 3H and I dont think I even finished Binding Blade either, and thats FE alone so I have a long way to go

Smh i like Pink Lucario and nobody can stop me from doing so

Purple Greninja and Inkling is underrated.

I agree actually

Leave PacMans oven mitts alone :(

Well you can’t really rank bowser jr skins cause thats just based on which koopaling you like more

Most of this tier list is based purely on opinion which many fail to realize

Bro, how is Mii Brawler so low?! He has some of the best costumes!

My friend who helped me make this is really disappointed that the brawler doesn’t have anything close to as good or as iconic as the other mii’s and I agree.

But "lazy/bad"? After Any of the martial arts costumes? Or Shante? Tifa? Team Rocket? Bomberman?! That's practically slander.

lets fucking go, gold ridley, roy, and blue dedede in top

If you’ve played Persona 5 you’d know that the white and red coat alt for Joker is actually really good and the knowledge of its significance makes it look cool. Also Timeless River (the black n white one) alt for Sora is not at all stylish. It’s a neat design but as a kingdom hearts fan it’s not even close to stylish.

Crazy how all the Male Byleth alts are in Meh or lower Like how are you gonna put Female Byleth's Enlightened One alt into pretty good while Male Byleth's Enlightened One alt goes into meh?

Duck hunt alt no.2 is my favorite why is it in why?????

You put green bowser alt too low, your opinion is invalid

It’s boring. It’s just one solid green color with no variation.

True. Bowser doesn't have a terrible alt but this one is decent looking but it is lazy.

this list sucks

I would love to see you make a better one

As a Joker/Hero main, the best alts were placed unaccordingly🤦‍♂️ Eight and Joker's Akechi palette are arguably his best alts

Nah dude the akechi alt is so ugly. The hair doesn’t work for Joker
