False Character

A False Character is an enemy in the video game Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is an evil double copied from a fallen character's trophy. False Characters are formed when Shadow Bugs "consume" a fallen character's trophy.

False Bowser
False Bowser is the Shadow Bug version of Bowser. False Bowser makes his first appearance without warning at The Lake almost seemingly at random. After Fox and Diddy defeat him he dissolves. He is seen several more times throughout the game.

False Peach
False Peach is a Shadow Bug version of Princess Peach. It only appears in story mode of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. After the Shadow Bugs cover Peach's trophy, they turn Peach into False Peach, if the player saves Peach in the beginning of the game when fighting Petey Piranha. While Mario and Pit are running, False Peach attempts on shooting them. However, right before she is able to, Link destroys the Dark Cannon. False Peach angrily looks at Link and his partner Yoshi, and they fight. Link and Yoshi win the battle, and after that, the False Peach trophy turns back into the false version of Peach's trophy. Mario saw this however and thinking Link is the enemy because he attacked Peach, Mario tries to attack Link. Link quickly moves out of the way. Upon defeating Mario and Pit, Link sees Zelda's trophy being taken away by King Dedede.

Later on in the story, Peach and Zelda's trophies are taken aboard the Halberd locked up in cages. When Snake, Meta Knight, and Lucario enter the room where their trophies are, Shadow Bugs come in and transform into False Peach and False Zelda. The three battle and soon the true princesses are released from their cages.

False Zelda
False Zelda is a Shadow Bug version of Zelda. It pretty much has the same role as False Peach. However she can only be seen in the story mode by saving Zelda from Petey Piranha. It tries to zap Link, and Yoshi instead of Peach zapping Mario and Pit. Also, Mario and Pit get to fight False Zelda instead of Link and Yoshi fighting False Peach. Like Zelda, Peach's trophy is taken on the Halberd, and Snake, Meta Knight, and Lucario also fight False Zelda as well as False Peach.

False Diddy
False Diddy is a Shadow Bug version of Diddy Kong. When Fox and Diddy were walking by The Swamp they were ambushed by Bowser, and Diddy was shot by Bowser with the Dark Cannon turning Diddy into a trophy. Bowser then orders Shadow Bugs to "consume" Diddy's trophy once this happened False Diddy was made. Falco then flies down in an Arwing. Falco swoops out of the Arwing and destroys Bowser's Dark Cannon. Bowser leaves and the group looks back at the False Diddy who they find out is gathering more Shadow Bugs. False Diddy then grows to an enormous size. Fox touches Diddy's trophy, bringing him back to life, and the three defeat False Diddy. Once defeated, False Diddy's trophy disintegrates into the original Shadow Bugs.

False Samus
False Samus is a Shadow Bug version of Samus. During the cutscene of Research Facility Part 2, Zero Suit Samus and Pikachu go to a room with a Power Suit in a glass container. Before ZSS could get her Power Suit, two False Samuses start walking towards the duo. The duo prepare to fight, and so do the False Samuses. This leads to a battle against the False Samuses. After the False Samuses are defeated, they are no longer seen in Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary.
