Leaked screenshots show that there was originally a trophy for Tharja from Fire Emblem: Awakening, but it was removed from the final game. Some speculate this was because of her suggestive clothing that would have likely given the game a more mature rating from the ESRB. There has been no confirmation that this trophy was ever set to appear.

According to Masahiro Sakurai, the reason the Ice Climbers were cut from the roster is because of 3DS hardware limitations. He also states that he didn't want to add them exclusively to the Wii U roster to avoid there being considerable differences between the two versions.

All of the characters in the game were chosen at the start of development. This means Geninja was chosen before Pokemon X & Y was released, and that its inclusion was not because of its popularity.
There was an open slot for a new Pokémon character, and the team began discussing who to put in it, eventually settling on Greninja. All the reference material they had for Greninja were simply drawings at that point. Sakurai went home the same day he received the Greninja reference material and stayed up until midnight to do the motion capture for the character.
