It still has its own sort of canon. It's just that the origin is "toys brought to life" as opposed to "the original characters pulled from their universes" or something to that effect.

So, for example, Palutena saying that BotW Link is from another world is a contradiction, a lie made on purpose for higher forces, or something that fits in the canon in an unknown/weird way (like everyone being from the same universe)?Azathoth the Abyssal Idiot said:Yeah, Sakurai did kinda confirm that lorewise, everyone was originally a toy before they were a Smash fighter.
I didn't say anything about killing though. Things that are nowhere near living beings still have physical forms that they've lost.Saikou The Lewd King said:We have Spirits for things that are nowhere near living beings, spirits for characters already dead, one spirit for many beings, many spirits for one person, etc. I think it's pretty clear that spirits aren't just "Kill a living being to get a corresponding spirit".
Stil doesn´t explain why Rosalina didn´t just turned Luma into a Launch Star and flew along with Kirby.The real cal howard said:
Saikou The Lewd King said:Because it doesn't teleport things. It just launches them.
Omnidirectional =/= OmnipresentSaikou The Lewd King said:Considering the thing was an omnidirectional blast, simply being fast wouldn't have saved you.
But if the enemies from Purgatorio we're killed in the Smash universe and Galeem's attack never reached other realms, then why wouldn't it make sense for Bayonetta escape then? The attack wouldn't have gotten near her if she traveled to a realm where the attack wasn't coming towards, so it doesn't make sense for her NOT to escape.ArbitraryNumbers said:My point is that I don't think the statement indicates that Galeem's attack reached any alternate universes. It's just that he didn't think it would make sense for Bayo and Palu to be able to escape since Galeem had already killed comparable beings. Partially because in that same video, Sakurai only mentions that the lasers consumed the entire galaxy.
We see that plenty of characters from other verses are consumed, not just the fighters, while they're still in what seems to be the original Smash world. So who's to say that the beings Sakurai referred to weren't there as well? After all Sakurai said that Galeem killed Bayo's enemies FROM Purgatorio, not IN Purgatorio.
Just because they exist in alternate dimensions within their respected canons doesn't automatically mean they were within those dimensions when Galeem attacked. Giratina is from an alternate dimension within Pokemon and he clearly wasn't there when he was in Smash 4.
