[[File:FalseGameWatch.png|thumb|200px|left|False Mr. Game & Watches]]
The '''{{conjectural|False Mr. Game & Watches}}''' are the Shadow Bug versions of [[Mr. Game & Watch]]. They are different from most false characters in that they don't emit any kind of dark aura from their bodies, despite the fact that they're created from Shadow Bugs. During a cutscene for the [[Battleship Halberd Bridge]], [[Meta Knight]], [[Lucario]], and [[Solid Snake]] spot them controlling the Halberd and send them flying onto the bridge. Upon landing on the bridge, the False Mr. Game & Watches change into Shadow Bugs, which then become [[Duon]].  During that time, [[Fox]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]], [[Lucario]], [[Solid Snake]], and Falco take out the menace.

Upon defeating Duon, the Shadow Bugs retreat, leaving behind the real Mr. Game & Watch. Players never fight against the False Mr. Game & Watches, since they are exclusive to the cutscenes.

===In The Great Maze===
[[Category: Clones]]
[[File:Clones.jpg|thumb|Some examples of False Characters found in [[The Great Maze]], from left to right: [[Mario]] clone, [[Link]] clone, and [[Donkey Kong]] clone]]
The Great Maze is populated by dark clones of the fighters. There are clones for almost every character in the game. They must all be defeated, along with every one of the Subspace Emissary's bosses, in order to unlock the door leading to Tabuu.
 
The following characters do not have clones in the Great Maze:
*[[Zero Suit Samus]] (as [[Samus Aran|Samus]] has regained her Power Suit)
*[[Squirtle]]
*[[Ivysaur]]
*[[Sheik]]
*[[Sonic]] (appears only for the final boss battle)
*[[Wolf O'Donnell|Wolf]] (found after completion of the game)
*[[Jigglypuff]] (found after completion of the game)
*[[Toon Link]] (found after completion of the game)
These False Characters were created by Tabuu and the [[Subspace Army]] based on "detailed analysis" of the fighters and their past battles; these copies were placed in the Great Maze to guard Tabuu's creation. They are visually different from other False Characters, being more of a shadowy palette swap of their counterpart with a greenish sheen. These characters are also slightly larger than their original counterparts.<ref>http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/gamemode/modea/modea17.html</ref>
