I know it might be an unpopular opinion, but I'm actually gonna go with Toad. He's not much of a fighter, but he's probably the most prolific Mario character that isn't in the game already. I'm sure they could come up with a decent moveset.
Geno seems awesome, but I haven't personally played with him in SMRPG, so I can't really know. Paper Mario would be cool too, but there's already a Mario, I think he should be an alt-costume. And Kat & Ana are just two more sword characters that are relatively minor to the series.

I can understand the reasoning behind most of that, expect Paper Mario as an alt-costume? How the heck would that work?

Well, one of my hopes for the game is that they utilize the costume change for near-clones, such as Wario Classic and Wario Ware. I dunno how hard that would be to program, especially if they have slightly varying stats, but it would cut down on space and make way for more characters (e.g. Fire Emblem lords that use swords).

I can see what you're saying, but I think a transition from 3D to 2D would be too much effort to justify him being an alt-costume. Also, some of Mario's moves wouldn't really make too much sense with Paper Mario. One of the reasons I want PM in is because he would represent the RPG side of Mario and would pretty much have to have a new moveset since the two characters are fairly different, despite technically being the same person. They are certainly more different than Link and Toon Link.

I wouldn't think that 3D to 2D would be that much of a difference, but you have a good point with the moves, I could see the hammer being used and maybe some 2D gimmicks. I just think it'd end up being a sort of Dr. Mario/Mario thing and would be better served with some complex programming/design that capitalized on their similarities and saved space for other characters. But I can see big Paper Mario fans wanting him separate; he'd probably be my second choice for this poll.

You know what would be amusing? Paper Mario as an alt costume for G&W. Toad is obnoxious enough in the Mario spinoffs, that I wouldn't want him around in SSBU. Kat and Ana would make a better Assist Trophy, IMO. With those three things in mind, Imma vote Geno.

Haha, I could see Paper Mario being an alt-costume for G&W! Kat & Ana are already an assist trophy, I think, but yeah. I think Geno would make a good character, from what I've read, I just don't know much about him. As for Toad... yeah, he can be annoying, but he's a classic and they could try making him less annoying... maybe I'm too hopeful.

oh, I didn't know they were an assist trophy already haha. They could try, but i doubt they would be successful.

Toad is obnoxious enough in the Mario spinoffs, that I wouldn't want him around in SSBU. This is why I hate Toad, not to mention he's generally useless at times. (See: Super Mario 2)

Alriiiiight, I guess he's better left as an assist or something. Changing my vote to Paper Mario, though I support Geno too.

I'm going to have to go with geno on this, but it's a super hard choice, I'd love paper mario's move set (hammer, bomb[I'd like this to alternate between bombette bombery and boomer] super jump or something) I think that geno would be a great obscure character, which would be great in ssbu, I'd like to see alot of obscure character's in this game.
