    It’s weird and kind of annoying how some of the classic route titles in English don’t match the theme of the route.
    Like, from the English title you would expect Isabelle’s route to be filled with other dogs and characters/items who are dogs or have relationships with dogs, like Duck Hunt, Mega Man with his spring dog, a fight on the Nintendogs stage with the Nintendog assist trophy, but no. It’s all the female characters, which makes sense with the Japanese title, but not the English one.

    So, the Inciniroar one where he fights himself is kind of a deep reference.
    Incineroar himself is based off the wrestler Tiger Mask, a VERY popular wrestler from japan. And his match against himself in his classic mode is most likely a reference to the Tiger Mask anime (yes the wrestler had an entire anime made after him)
    In Tiger Mask W, Tiger Mask has a Rival called “Tiger the Dark” basically Evil Tiger Mask. Which is probably what the reference is going for.

    Round 4- A fight against Mario (Color 7) with a Healing Field and a Metal R.O.B. with a Killer Eye. This references the Engineer and his sentry.
    Round 5- A match against Dr. Mario (Color 3) with occasional invincibility and Dark Pit (Color 6) equipped with a staff. This references Medic and Sniper

    I feel like I need to defend the hands for being a boss by trying to find a reason for them...
    Daisy: Master/Crazy hand don’t have assigned genders as far as I remember, so they could represent the princesses of Smash, after all Master and Crazy hand represent the Smash series.
    Ridley: the platform of Final Destination also looks like something in the middle of space (even think back to subspace emissary), and the hands can fly in space so it also makes sense for Ridley to encounter them
    Dark Samus: In Subspace Emissary, Master hand was controlled by Tabuu, and in World of Light, both Master and Crazy hand were possessed by Dharkon and Galeem (the true Master and Crazy hands become free once beaten and help the player access the true final boss) so it fits with the poison/possessed theme of the route
    Chrom: The mode is about pair-ups so Master and Crazy hand could be a pair up against Chrom and Robin who are also a pair-up
    Isabelle: As stated before, the hands don’t have assigned genders as far as I remember, it’s just the hands of the creator and destroyer, so the hands could also be represented as female against Isabelle
    Ken: It was already stated but Crazy hand can be viewed as the rival of Master hand which is the theme of the route so it makes sense
    Inciniroar: The hands can literally punch and grab you, which as things that happen in boxing/wrestling. In my opinion it makes more sense indeed of going up against something like a giant demon with 2 swords or a giant fire-breathing dinosaur...
    That’s all, thanks for taking the time for reading all of this, I’m not saying these were all the best choices, I’m just defending on what representation there is in these choices

    4:56 this fight is actually a reference to Slogra and Gaibon, from Super Castlevania 4, where they were two of the final bosses before Dracula and a reference to Symphony of the Night where they are the first bosses you fight against as a tag team. Charizard is blue like Gaibon and Dedede is green and has a weapon like Slogra.

Basically there’s has been various incarnations of Tiger Mask (even an evil one which color scheme actually matches Incineroar’s normal colors) so basically this was a reference to Tiger Mask facing his evil doppelgänger

    Details missed:
    Simon:

    -The Green Dedede and Blue Charizard are references to Slogra and the Gaibon, both end-game bosses from Super Castlevania 4.
    Dark Samus:
    -The brainwashing theme is taken directly from Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, where Dark Samus brainwashes Samus’ allies.
    -Also, Dark Samus isn’t a “corrupted Samus”; it’s a Phazon-powered Metroid that absorbed Samus’ Phazon suit.

    4:53 this fight is most likely a reference to Gaibon and Slogra. Gaibon is usually a blue color but turns red when enough damage is done to him and uses fire attacks. Slogs is green and typically uses a spear, so Dedede is the most likely choice since he is the only character that fights using a two handed weapon. Most of the games also have an early boss fight be against a Gaibon and Slogra together and later they show up as normal enemies.

It is a reference to SSBM in the events category in event 51 where you would fight against Mewtwo, Gannon, and Giga Bowser in a 3 stock battle for the final event which is the hardest out of all events. In this battle, Bowser is in his normal form, not his giga form, making it a interesting touch of reference to this round

I'd say it's a Tiger Mask reference but if it was, the purple one would be black instead.

    Simon's fight against green Dedede and purple Charizard is probably a reference to Slogra and Gaibon, two bosses from Super Castlevania 4 who were first their own separate bosses but then sort of got associated with each other and at times fought together at once. Slogra is a green spear wielding monster with a beak which I guess they went with Dedede since he's beaked and carries a weapon, even if it's not a spear. Gaibon is a kind of bat-like/dragon like monster, which fits in line with Charizard more or less.
