Banjobelle
 Banjobelle is the het ship between Banjo and Isabelle. AKA IsaBanjo

Canon
Banjo and Isabelle are both anthropomorphic animals.

Fanon
People initially portrayed Banjo as antagonistic towards Isabelle, alongside other characters who didn't get the 5th newcomer spot in Ultimate.

However, the ship sailed not even a day after Banjo's own reveal. The often stated reason why is because they are often said to be the nicest characters on the roster and thus many interpret their interactions as being incredibly wholesome. Though that hasn't stopped people from interpreting their relationship a bit less so, often having Isabelle chase Banjo for somewhat superficial reasons. Though they are actually fairly close in height in the game itself, fanartists have collectively decided that Isabelle is tiny, some make Banjo buff to further contrast them. Isabelle filling in for Banjo by carrying his backpack with Kazooie on her back is a common theme in fanart, though results tend to vary.

For reasons that were never made clear, the Banjo-Kazooie fanbase seems to dislike this ship. Though those who play both that and Animal Crossing have shown to like the ship, some even hoping that there would be a bear villager named Banjo in the next game.

Banjo-IIIe
 Banjo-IIIe is the friendship between Banjo and the Hero (Erdrick).

Canon
Banjo and the Dragon Quest Heroes were announced in the same direct.

Fanon
The ship started in participation for the next character, with leaks claiming that either Banjo & Kazooie or a Dragon Quest hero are incredibly likely. Cue the pure joy of the fanbase when they didn't have to choose between one or the other, getting both announced on the same day.

Initially, people portrayed Banjo and Erdrick as competing for the spot on the roster. After their joined reveal, people liked portraying them as mocking the ones that didn't make it in, including Sora and Steve, which became somewhat hilarious in hindsight. Some people have reframed the context of these images as Banjo and Erdrick getting the last two energy drinks in the fridge. The ship appears to be exclusively between Banjo and Erdrick, who is deemed the most significant of the Heroes for his heavy resemblance to Goku. Though at least one piece of fan art of Banjo and Kazooie befriending the Luminary also exists. Some have it both ways and depict Banjo hugging both Erdrick and the Luminary.

There's a consensus that Banjo & Kazooie had a double invite (with two sigils), while the Heroes had a quadruple invite (with four sigils).

Bayomar
 Bayomar is the het ship between Mario and Bayonetta. AKA Marionetta, Maryonetta

Bayonetta & Bayonetta 2

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS
On Bayonetta's character page on smashbros.com, there's a picture of Bayonetta forcing Mario and Luigi to carry gift boxes for her. This references the opening scene of Bayonetta 2.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Bayonetta is second on Mario's unlock tree.

In the Spirit Battle for "Professor Riggs/Gerry, Plaise and Lerna", Dr. Mario and Bayonetta fight the player alongside Young Link. Dr. Mario represents the professor and Bayonetta represents Lerna Lotte (Young Link represents Plaise Allatyme).

Fanon
There is a comic about Bowser trying to impress Peach after hearing that they're trying to "slow down" in their relationship, Peach is at first reluctant and tells Bowser that she'd been thinking things over with Mario, only to change her mind and go on a date with Bowser after seeing that Mario is also going on a date with Bayonetta. It is implied that Mario shaved his mustache for her.

Bayonic
 Bayonic is the het ship between Sonic the Hedgehog and Bayonetta.

Canon
Both the Sonic the Hedgehog and Bayonetta series were published by SEGA. Sonic was developed in-house by the Sonic Team, Bayonetta was developed by Platinum Games.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
There's an image on Sonic's page on smashbros.com of him trying to catch one of Bayonetta's butterflies.

Fanon
The pairing has a following due to them sharing a publisher. However, due to the massive age gap between them, people are just as likely to portray them as mother and son, often making Joker his older brother.

BayoSamus
 BayoSamus is the femslash ship between Bayonetta and Samus Aran. AKA Samunetta

Canon
On Bayonetta's page on smashbros.com, there is an image of Bayonetta using her Wicked Weaves on Samus.

Bayonetta and Zero Suit Samus are fairly similar: They're both acrobatic and fight in heels.

Fanon

Clink
 Clink is the slash ship between Cloud and Link from the Super Smash Bros. fandom.

Canon
In the reveal trailer for Cloud in Super Smash Bros., Link and Cloud are shown clashing swords in the midgar stage. In later photos in the DLC, they can be shown having a friendly sword Fights with their signature swords, the Buster Sword and the Master Sword.

Fanon
Although not as popular as other slash ships, there are a few people who do ship these two together. A few works about Link and Cloud have them falling in love with each other due to how much they have in common. Even though no one in the Smash community thinks that they like each other, they do get along well enough to be considered friends or allies.

Due to their sword clashing scene, some have Link and Cloud as rivals who fight one another and with Link not being happy that Cloud has a bigger sword than he does, until the two realize that them they combined their skills together they make an excellent sword fighting team. Since most fanfics and fanart of Cloud and Link do have them fighting beside each other as friends. Along with there being a few pieces of fanart on Tumblr that has Cloud and Link together while they are wearing their female disguises, since it is one of the few similar traits that has fans bring Link and Cloud together.

On AO3, the ship has only 16 fanfics, while FanFiction.Net has 15 fanfics in its Super Smash Brothers category. Which is a much bigger number of fanfics that ClouZel has on those websites, making the slash ship a bit more popular than the het ship. Clink also has a some fanbase on both Tumblr and DeviantART. Because Cloud and Link can meet one another in canon through Super Smash Bros., most fan-made work of Clink focuses on the crossover game series. While there have been a few pieces of fan work on the two that has their games and worlds crossed with one another. Along with some of the Link x Cloud fan-work having Cloud in his original Kingdom Hearts attire.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

In Dark Samus' Classic Mode, "The Great Poison Given Form", a Zelda with a monochrome color palette is Dark Samus' first ally, fighting Link. This represents the times when Zelda got possessed by the villain in her home series, with the implication that Dark Samus is mindcontrolling her.

Canon
Joker and Master Hand (along with the Announcer and Crazy Hand) are both voiced by Xander Mobius.

Much like a good chunk of the roster, at the end of Joker's Classic Mode "Shadows", he winds up fighting Master Hand.

Fanon
Once fans found out that the first DLC character shares a voice actor with the most recurring boss in the series, the jokes started writing themselves. Since many headcanon the Announcer to be the same character as Master Hand (or at least connected), many had Joker imitate the announcer, much to the annoyance of other characters, especially Master Hand.

Fandom
FAN FICTION

Duck Hunt Duo
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> Duck Hunt Duo is the friendship between Duck Hunt Dog and Duck Hunt Duck.

Canon
Within their own game, the Dog and the Duck are enemies, with the Dog helping the player hunt them down. Should the player hit a duck, the Dog will pick it up and proudly present it to them. Should the player miss or fail to shoot a duck in time, the Dog will laugh at them.

Their reveal trailer shows regular gameplay of Duck Hunt, only for the game to suddenly stop and the Dog to look around, with Mario entering the frame along with other NES characters. When Mario urges the Dog to join them, he jumps into a third dimension, becoming his modern self along with everyone else. The Dog does the same, only for a duck to sit down on its back. In Super Smash Bros., the former enemies of Dog and Duck fight as a unit. And they're not alone; the hunter assists them from outside the game, shooting at their opponents.

Their trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS also point out that they used to be enemies, but fight as a team now, yet never elaborate why.

Fanon
A general headcanon why the Dog and Duck are suddenly friends now is because the Dog found the Duck while hunting, when it was just a helpless duckling. Having sympathy for a small, defenseless infant, the Dog hid it from its owner. By the time of Super Smash Bros., it seems that the owner is already aware of their friendship, so some like to think that the Dog did indeed walk up to its owner with a duckling in its mouth, the owner horrified and guilty, chose to adopt it.

Falconcina
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> Falconcina is the het ship between Captain Falcon and Lucina

Canon
Lucina and Captain Falcon were announced for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS at the same time, alongside Robin. Captain Falcon was a veteran, Lucina was an "Echo Fighter" of Marth, before the term even existed.

In Lucina and Robin's reveal trailer, Lucina is fighting a losing battle against a mysterious opponent, which already left Chrom incapacitated. Before launching into another attack, she wonders what her opponent's power is, having never seen something like that before. It is then revealed that her opponent is none other than Captain Falcon, who flashes his eyes at her. Lucina looks back at the struggling Chrom and charges at Captain Falcon, grunting that her next attack is to avenge Chrom. She dodges a regular punch of Captain Falcon and then tries to stab him, only for him to block it nearly effortlessly. He then kicks her, knocking her off-guard and leaving her at the mercy of his Falcon Punch. But before he can finish saying it, another challenger approaches, distracting him. Said challenger is revealed to be Robin, who came to Lucina's rescue, managing to get Captain Falcon away from Lucina, but failing to put a single scratch on him. The trailer ends with Robin and Lucina still fighting Captain Falcon off-screen while Chrom laments that he'll get his chance another day, before passing out.

Fanon
Falconcina has a decently sized following. People were really intrigued by Captain Falcon's appearance in Lucina's reveal trailer, arguing that it not only made him look like a complete badass, but also really helped illustrating the weirdness of Super Smash Bros. crossovers. It makes sense that Captain Falcon would be overpowered in a relatively grounded setting like Fire Emblem, thus seeing it portrayed in a trailer was not what people expected. People already started speculating what could've happened between Captain Falcon and Lucina that they would end up fighting each other in a way that could've potentially claimed Chrom's life. Though most people argue that Chrom made it out alive, he's both in Smash Bros. and too important to die in his own game.

Most fanwork depicts them as already being in a relationship.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Event Match 36, "High-Tech Special Forces", Snake is one of Captain Falcon's opponents, along with Samus and Wolf.

In Snake's Codec for Captain Falcon, Snake recognizes him with Otacon complimenting his good eye, giving additional information that he's F-Zero pilot number 07. Seeing Captain Falcon reminds Snake of that "thing" he and Otacon always wanted to try, which Otacon agrees to. They then engage in imitations of Captain Falcon's moves.

The Subspace Emissary
Captain Falcon and Snake don't get to interact much in this mode. The only times were they could interact is them both being on board of the Halberd and then joining everyone else to try and fight Tabuu, only to fail and be turned into trophies and needing to be rescued.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Captain Falcon represents Zero in his Spirit Battle. Snake joins him, representing Naked Snake.

Fanon
FalconSnake is a rarepair in the fandom, but it has a fairly vocal following. Most fans saw the appeal in the ship because of the waning popularity of both FalSam and Snakus, with many arguing that they shouldn't fight over a girl. The canonical fanboyism Snake and Otacon have towards Captain Falcon helps fuel the ship somewhat.

Canon
In Palutena's Guidance for Falco, she asks Pit if he knows who he's fighting. Pit gives a detailed description, clearly admiring him, but Palutena wonders why his name is "Falco", arguing that Captain Falcon already has the "falcon" motive and that Falco looks more like a pheasant to her. When Pit claims that pheasant sounds delicious, Viridi warns him to never tell him that, Paluenta agrees, telling Pit that Falco has a lot of fighting experience as a former gang leader. When Pit expresses concern over having to fight a galaxy celebrity, Palutena tells him to watch out for Falco's long-range attacks.

Falco and Kazooie are two avian playable characters in the series. They're both known for being rather sarcastic and being the sidekick/Number Two of their series protagonists. Kazooie comes from a Rareware series, which also developed some notable games in the Star Fox series.

In Banjo & Kazooie's Classic Mode, "Perfect Partners", Falco is their fifth opponent, along with Fox.

Fanon
People shipped them almost as soon as Banjo & Kazooie's reveal, with the number of their similarities taken into account. A common headcanon is that Falco isn't interested in her at first, until seeing her blunt personality in action made him pine for her.

Four Legends
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> Four Legends is the friendship between Mario, Sonic, Mega Man, and Pac-Man.

Canon
Within the Super Smash Bros. series, all four characters represent different companies: Mario is Nintendo's mascot, Sonic is SEGA's, Mega Man represents Capcom and Pac-Man represents Namco.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS
Mega Man and Pac-Man both make their debut in this game, finally allowing these four to meet.

Pac-Man's reveal trailer starts with a zoom on Mario's cap, the red creating a red line. It then shows Sonic and Mega Man, zooming in on Mega Man's helmet, the blue creating a blue line. The screen is slashed and suddenly, a yellow line appears, taking over the screen. The yellow line turns into a yellow circle, which opens its "mouth" as Pac-Man's trademark "wakka" noise is heard, signifying Pac-Man's turn to join Smash. The trailer shows off Pac-Man's moveset by having him fight Mario, then a team of Sonic and Mega Man. Close to the end, it shows him running away from the three, only for him to turn the tides against them by turning into his Final Smash self and chasing them instead.

The Event Match, "The FINAL Final Battle" has the player fight all four of them.

On Pac-Man's page on smashbros.com, there's an image of all four fighting each other.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Pac-Man's Classic Mode, "Ageless Classic" has him fight Mario (alongside Luigi and Donkey Kong) as his first opponent and Mega Man (alongside Little Mac and Snake) as his second opponent. Interestingly, Sonic is absent.

Peach was introduced in Super Smash Bros. Melee, with Fox already being a veteran. They don't interact in that game.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Subspace Emissary)
Just as Kirby and Peach (or Zelda, depending on the player's choices) make it safely on the dock of the Halberd after escaping a Subspace Bomg, an Arwing attacks it, sending them flying.

With Peach being taken prisoner by Bowser in her storyline, landing herself on the Halberd anyway and escaping alongside Sheik back on the dock, she witnesses the Arwing attacking the Halberd again. Though she's initially calm, she yelps in shock when the blast of the Arwing nearly hits her, Sheik is furious and jumps up to the Arwing, smashing Fox's window-shield. Both landing on the Arwing, Fox is understandably angry over Sheik trashing his ship, so they start fighting, Peach does not approve. She diffuses the situation by offering Fox tea, he's initially confused, but accepts it after seeing Sheik accepting Peach's tea as well, he sounds outright happy when he takes a sip. When Duon interrupts their tea time and they defeat it along with Snake, Lucario and Falco, Mr. Game & Watch's trophy appears out of the mass of shadow bugs. Fox intends to shoot it, but Peach stops him and walks up to Mr. Game & Watch, freeing him and scolding him for letting himself be influenced like that.

After the groups (besides King Dedede, Luigi and Ness) unite, Peach and Fox are seen during the confrontation against Tabuu. However, they fighters are no match for him and he nearly effortlessly turns them all into trophies. Only thanks to King Dedede putting his timer badges on Luigi and Ness, along with Kirby swallowing the one that was intended for one of the princesses could the fighters be rescued again and the real final fight begin.

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> Incinebelle is the non-binary ship between Incineroar and Isabelle.

Canon
Isabelle and Incineroar are (not counting Echo Fighters) the last two characters who were announced for Ultimate, pre-DLC. Both are anthropomorphic animals, Isabelle is a Shi Tzu, Incineroar is a Pokémon based on a tiger.

Fanon
People like to pair Isabelle with Incineroar because of the huge contrast between them. Isabelle is an innocent-looking, friendly, little dog, Incineroar is a fiery, intimidating and muscular Pokémon. Smash fans like to think that Isabelle has a dark side and is fully capable of dishing out violence while Incineroar is actually a huge softie beneath the Kayfabe act it puts on. Some joke that Incineroar is wary of Isabelle, due to its nature of being a "cat". Many others love the idea of them being unlikely best friends, with Isabelle cheering it on during fights, both as an audience member and as a fellow fighter.

Additionally, even though they're roughly the same height in-game, most fanartists depict Isabelle as being the size of Incineroar's arm, allowing her to ride on its shoulder. One artist flat out drew them as Marc Anthony (Incineroar) and Pussyfoot (Isabelle) from Feed the Kitty!.

Jokeling
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> Jokeling is the non-binary ship between Ren Amamiya and an Inkling.

Canon
The default Inkling girl happens to look very much like Joker's confidant and surrogate sister, Futaba Sakura. Both have orange "hair" and the Inkling's eye mask looks a lot like Futaba's glasses at first glance.

The Futaba Spirit battle has it come full circle by having the Inkling Girl cast as Futaba.

Fanon
The entire point of the ship is that Joker either mistakes the Inkling for Futaba or sees a close resemblance to her. Thus he projects his relationship with Futaba (whether romantic or platonic) onto her, much to the latter's annoyance. Though many depict them as genuinely getting along in spite of that. It helps that neither has a clearly established age, meaning that they could be in the same age range.

Super Smash Bros. fans did not invent the "Futaba is an Inkling" comparisons. That very comparison was made the very moment Futaba's character design was first revealed.

The Joker/Inkling Boy variant also exists, said Inkling is compared to Yusuke Kitagawa. However, it's not as popular, as the comparison is deemed to be a major stretch.

Canon
In Snake's Codec conversation for Luigi, Snake stands up for him when AI Colonel calls him the "King of Second Bananas", says he has pale skin from the darkness of his brother's shadow, and mocks him for being a kid brother.

Fanon
Fans were quick to appreciate Snake showing an apparent soft spot for Luigi, and pairing the two became popular, especially since most of Snake's codec calls have him show hostility toward other characters such as Fox, Bowser, and even Princess Peach. Luigi is often shown thanking Snake for defending him from AI Colonel. In the Ultimate era, the ship sometimes overlaps with Luimon, with both Snake and fellow Konami character Simon Belmont taking a mutual stance to protect Luigi from bullies and danger.

In Palutena's Guidance, Palutena notes that beneath all of Incineroar's cockiness and general arrogance, it's supposedly "good with children".

Fanon
After seeing Incineroar's moveset demonstration, it became popular to joke how Lucas is scared of the thing, expressing it in offering free hugs for anyone (except Incineroar). However, people also like to imagine their relationship as similar to the comic strip "Calvin and Hobbes" (which the ship name references), which is about a blonde boy going on misadventures with a living stuffed tiger. Directly comparing Incineroar to Hobbes, who also liked to mess with Calvin by roughing him around, many believe that they could actually become close friends.

A YouTube channel by the name of MasterEnex released a parody video that replaces Lucina's Final Smash with her confessing her love for her opponent, Luigi. Luigi surrenders the match and becomes Lucina's husband. The two are still shown to be partners in the video's sequel during which Lucina attempts the same move on Palutena, but is instead Countered with a friendzone. She also calls Luigi her "friend" in one comic, to which Luigi is delighted to hear. One could also find appeal in pairing them due to their similar names.

Activating Palutena's Guidance around Simon has Pit recognize him, to which Palutena asks if he knows him. Pit explains that they "hit the scene" around the same time, to which Palutena admits that the legacy of the Belmont clan is very interesting. When Pit asks how long they've been hunting vampires, Palutena gives him a detailed explanation of the first and last known Belmonts. When Pit is astonished at them having a thousand years of experience, Palutena explains that the Belmonts are not the only vampire hunting clan and that they also exist in parallel timelines. She then claims that the most iconic symbol of the Belmonts is their whip, the Vampire Killer. Ignoring Viridi's comment about a whip fighter being unusual, Palutena tells them that only Belmonts can wield that whip and that it has been passed down for generations. Once again ignoring Viridi's comment about how terrible the whip must smell, Palutena warns Pit about Simon's long-range attacks.

In Palutena's Classic Mode "A Little Divine Intervention", Round 3 has her fight Simon Belmont and his descendant, Richter. In the Spirit Battle for Trevor C.

Canon
In the Super Smash Bros. universe, they were both introduced in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS, and was also back in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as part of the base roster. Both are a part of the beginning cutscene of the World of Light story mode, when Shulk encounters the future of Galeem destroying the roster; he would try to warn the roster before being obliterated offscreen. Rosalina in a clip from the cutscene with Diddy Kong are flying away from the beams of light before they obliterate them. Similar traits from both include, having blond and blue eyes, the existence of deities in their universes, being kind, caring towards their friends, and being physically active. They may conflict with each other due to past experiences related to gods within Shulk’s universe. They both haven’t met each other otherwise, and therefore, are not canon.

Fanon
It can be seen as a familyship (as Rosalina can be seen more of a mother figure) or a het ship. There are traits that could conflict with people shipping Shulk and Rosalina. Shulk and Rosalina’s situation can be seen as wholesome, as they enjoy simple things in life (as they couldn’t have a normal childhood in fanfics). The pairing currently has 1 work on AO3, but plenty on FanFiction.Net.

Tetsuya Nomura has gone on record saying that the creation of the Kingdom Hearts series has inspiration from Mario, specifically the Super Mario 64 game. Sora and Mario have met in Super Smash Bros. as they are both playable characters. First meeting each other in the fifth game in the franchise (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate), where they act as playable characters. Unfortunately, neither has canonically met each other in their respective series due to being set in different universes with each's franchises having different developers each, making a specific crossover unlikely. In Sora's reveal trailer for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Mario picks up Sora's Kingdom Key and throws it. The Keyblade shoots out a beam that summons Sora, who eagerly meets up with Mario, along with the rest of the Smash Bros. cast. After the gameplay footage, the last shot shows Mario and Sora shaking hands, a reference to them being the first and final characters in the game.

Fanon
A 2007 April Fool's joke by Electronic Gaming Monthly advertised a fake game called Mushroom Kingdom Hearts that would have the two teaming up in the Mushroom Kingdom. While this was obviously intended as a joke, Sora's inclusion in Super Smash Brothers caused it to be somewhat realized. The pairing become popular immediately, especially since the two of them shaking hands solidified them as friends for many. Sora and Mario also have many similarities as both are wholesome mascot heroes. Mario specifically is often considered to be the "Mickey Mouse of video games" in terms of their iconic status and historical significance for their respective mediums, and now Sora is a mutual connection between both of them.

Steve and Banjo were both added as DLC. They are both owned by Microsoft.

Fanon
The idea that Steve and Banjo are friends started as a counter against people fighting over which one they wanted more, which was rendered moot with both being added as DLC. Though initially, Banjo and Steve were portrayed as refusing to speak to each other, with time more and more people liked the idea that they are actually very close friends.

Before they were added, people who wanted Steve in Smash were bullying fans other characters by portraying Steve as a hideous "human" with exaggerated, still mostly blocky features, who was often portrayed harassing popular fan picks with Banjo being a prime target. Fans of the ship treat that "Steve" (often called "Grotesque Steve") as a separate entity and some kind of demon or impostor. Steve often joins Banjo and other characters in beating the "Grotesque" one up. Banjo is often portrayed as being afraid of that thing, if he was initially wary of Steve, it explains why.

SteVilla
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> SteVilla is the family ship between Steve and Villager.

Steve and Villager are both machanically unique characters, with Villager being able to pocket any projectile and Steve being able to draw resources to upgrade weapons from any type of ground and being able to place blocks to stand on. Additionally, both wield axes, with Steve also being able to chop down trees in his own game.

Much like Villager, Steve's alt costumes have different skin tones, they also have a functionally identical "female" counterpart, though unlike female Villager, Alex is a separate character.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is often compared to Minecraft: It adds tool durability, the ability to change the environment with shovels and most importantly, Crafting. Though Animal Crossing crafting is far simpler.

In Steve's Classic Mode "Journey to the Far Lands", Round 2 has a Villager attacked by a group of Warios, with R.O.B. assisting Steve in saving them. This represents the "Pillage" events in Minecraft, where NPCs also called "Villagers" are attacked by Pillagers, which are represented by Wario, with the player character having the option to save them to earn their gratitude (R.O.B. represents an Iron Golem).

Fanon
Within the Super Smash Bros. fanbase, both characters have a reputation of being somewhat "creepy". They have static, unmoving faces and use rather dangerous tools.

One comic shows them staring at each other without saying anything for an hour, which seriously creeps out normally fearless villains Bowser and Ridley, with the former being flat out concerned for the safety of his son. An epilogue shows Villager drawing out an axe and Steve a diamond sword, all without moving another muscle. However, many commented that they look like father and son, prompting the artist to draw speech bubbles of Villager asking how his mother is, with Steve saying that she's proud of him. This has spawned theories that Steve and Alex are Villager's previously unseen parents. Some have also joked that Villager is named after a Villager from Minecraft.

One artist has pointed out the similarities between the two axe-wielders, by having Steve chop down Villager's tree, with the latter looking sad about it.

Fanon
People like shipping Ike with the default female Villager, the one with the pink hair. Mostly because of the massive contrast between them, as people wanted to ship the big, muscular Ike with a cute girl, the "Pink" Villager is considered the perfect candidate. It helps that she is often agreed to be the most innocent of the Villagers, being often the only one not hit with the "Killager" meme.
