In the interim between the releases of ''Brawl'' and the Wii U and 3DS ''Smash Bros.'' games, the ''Pokémon'' franchise once again proceeded with and completed a full generation, {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation V}}, and had started {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation VI}}, which allows for content from all six ''Pokémon'' generations to be featured in the most recent ''Smash Bros.'' game. Among the introductions in Generation VI are new, temporary "Mega Evolutions" for certain Pokémon species such as [[Lucario]], [[Charizard]], and [[Mewtwo]] who returns as the first [[downloadable character]] in the ''Smash Bros.'' series. | In the interim between the releases of ''Brawl'' and the Wii U and 3DS ''Smash Bros.'' games, the ''Pokémon'' franchise once again proceeded with and completed a full generation, {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation V}}, and had started {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation VI}}, which allows for content from all six ''Pokémon'' generations to be featured in the most recent ''Smash Bros.'' game.

*[[File:CharizardIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Charizard (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Charizard}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Charizard returns as a fighter, and is now a standalone character choice from the [[Pokémon Trainer]] in ''Brawl'', devoid of any special interaction with {{SSBB|Squirtle}} and {{SSBB|Ivysaur}}. Charizard has a new side special move called [[Flare Blitz]], a powerful attack, though it inflicts recoil damage on Charizard even if it doesn't make contact with an opponent. Charizard's previous side special, [[Rock Smash]], is now its down special instead. It also has a new [[Final Smash]], [[Mega Charizard X]], which enables Charizard to Mega-Evolve and fly around shooting fire blasts. {{clr}} | *[[File:CharizardIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Charizard (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Charizard}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Charizard returns as a fighter, and is now a standalone character choice from the [[Pokémon Trainer]] in ''Brawl'', devoid of any special interaction with {{SSBB|Squirtle}} and {{SSBB|Ivysaur}}.

*[[File:LucarioIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Lucario (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Lucario}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Lucario was the first Pokémon to be revealed as a playable starter character since Pikachu. Like many other characters from cartoonish franchises, Lucario's appearance is changed to stray away from the more realistic look from ''Brawl'', into a much more vibrant and colorful look. Lucario gains a larger influence from his aura now, which affects moves like [[Aura Sphere]] and [[Extreme Speed]] more. Lucario has a new [[Final Smash]], its [[Mega Lucario|Mega Evolution]] from ''X'' and ''Y'', where Lucario can dish out almost twice as much damage and resist attacks. {{clr}} | *[[File:LucarioIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Lucario (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Lucario}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Lucario was the first Pokémon to be revealed as a playable starter character since Pikachu.

It is a Water/Dark dual-typed Pokémon and is regarded as one of the most viable contenders in the latest iteration of the main RPG series' competitive scenes. Greninja was confirmed as a newcomer in the April 8, 2014 Smash Bros. Direct. An amphibian warrior with a ninja-like aesthetic, Greninja's signature attack became its special move [[Water Shuriken]], a chargeable physical attack. Its [[Final Smash]] is [[Secret Ninja Attack]], where Greninja uses its other signature attack Mat Block to send foes in front of the moon, where it then slashes opponents several times before sending a final blow downward. | ||
