'''Wii Fit Trainer''' ({{ja|Wii Fit トレーナー|Wii Fit Torēnā}}, ''Wii Fit Trainer'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. She was revealed at [[Electronic Entertainment Expo|E3]] on June 11th, 2013.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HLvc506bNY Super Smash Bros. - E3 2013: Wii Fit Trainer Reveal]</ref> A male version of Wii Fit Trainer was revealed in a [[List of Director's Room Miiverse posts|Director's Room Miiverse post]] on October 31st, 2013, which also commemorated the release date of the trial version of ''Wii Fit U''. The male Wii Fit Trainer was later confirmed to be an [[Alternate costume (SSB4)#Wii Fit Trainer|alternate costume]] during a [[Nintendo Direct|''Super Smash Bros.'' Direct]] on April 8th, 2014.<ref name="Direct">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xUWnQu2Grs Super Smash Bros. Direct 4.8.2014]</ref> She was also among the first wave of [[amiibo]] compatible with ''SSB4''.

She also has a useful projectile in both [[Sun Salutation]] and [[Header]], while her unusual hitbox placements grant her both a deceptively decent combo game and impressive [[mindgame]] potential. Lastly, Wii Fit Trainer's overall mobility is good, thanks to her grounded mobility, high jumps, and ability to [[wall jump]]. By extension, these traits also grant her a good approach and, when coupled with Header, make her potent at [[edge-guard breaking]].

==Attributes==

Wii Fit Trainer is a [[Weight|middleweight]] that, unsurprisingly for a character hailing from the {{uv|Wii Fit}} series, has overall good mobility. She possesses good grounded mobility, thanks to her slightly above average [[walk]]ing and [[dash]]ing speeds, above average [[traction]], and very effective [[Dash-dance#Extended_dash-dancing|extended dash-dance]]. While Wii Fit Trainer's aerial mobility is marginally less effective in comparison because of her slightly below average [[air speed]], it is nevertheless capable. This is thanks to her above average [[air acceleration]], slightly above average [[gravity]], her above average [[jump]] height, and her ability to [[wall jump]]. Wii Fit Trainer also has impressive evasiveness: her [[sidestep]]s, [[roll]]s and [[air dodge]]s are all fast, while her [[Crouching|crouch]] and [[Crawling|crawl]] are the lowest ones in the game.

Wii Fit Trainer also possesses versatile [[special move]]s. [[Sun Salutation]] charges quickly and is spammable, while fully charging it allows it to deal impressive damage and slightly heal Wii Fit Trainer upon being fired. [[Header]] is an extremely useful edge projectile, to the point that it is arguably one of the best [[Edge-guard breaking|edge-guard breakers]] in the game thanks to its utility: it can deter approaches after dropping from an edge, edge-guard recovery attempts, meteor smash opponents at point-blank range via its headbutt, and be canceled in order to play mindgames.

Although Wii Fit Trainer's unique hitbox placements grant her some noteworthy benefits, their placements are also problematic. This is especially evident with smaller characters, as Wii Fit Trainer's fastest attacks to threaten them with are her neutral attack and forward tilt, and even then she can only do so when using their leg hitboxes. Wii Fit Trainer's range is further hindered by her grounded moves largely keeping her stationary, with her up smash being possibly her riskiest yet most rewarding move: despite being her strongest attack overall with or without Deep Breathing, its strongest hitbox is located entirely at her hands and upper arms, making it deceptively difficult to hit even grounded opponents who are practically touching her, unless their hurtboxes are high or large.

|game=SSB4

|neutralcount=3

|neutral1dmg=3% (most), 2% (late rear)

|neutral2dmg=2%

|neutral3dmg=3%

|neutraldesc=Performs a Single Leg Extension, Knee Raise, and Single Leg Kneeling Squat to attack with an outstretched arm, knee strike, and kneeling stomp, respectively. The first hit also has a hitbox on Wii Fit Trainer's leg that deals much more knockback and has [[mindgame]] potential, as it can be used for spacing or edge-guarding. The third hit is able to [[bury]] grounded opponents, which can easily follow up into a tilt attack or a smash attack. However, Wii Fit Trainer can also wait for the opponent to wriggle out of being buried and catch them with an aerial attack.

|ftiltdmg=9%

|ftiltdesc=Assumes the Dancer pose to simultaneously perform a knifehand thrust and scorpion kick. As a result, it is useful for punishing rolling opponents. Does not move her at all on use, which can make it difficult to land. Both of Wii Fit Trainer's limbs have high knockback growth, but have differing traits: her arm launches the opponent horizontally and is better for KOing, whereas her leg launches them vertically and is thus able to start combos. Its different launching trajectories also grant it mindgame potential when it is [[Pivoting|pivoted]]. Her arm KOs middleweights at 144% while near the edge, whereas her leg KOs them at 162%.

|utiltdmg=10% (front), 2% (close late rear)

|utiltdesc=Assumes the Triangle pose to attack with her outstretched arm. Only possesses a small hitbox on her arm, making it rather difficult to use as the move may whiff even if an opponent is close by. Launches the opponent straight up and is reliable for combos, particularly into itself and up smash, or as a follow-up from a short hopped up aerial.

|dtiltdmg=12%

|dtiltdesc=Assumes the Bridge pose to attack with her knees. It has fairly quick start-up and deals both respectable damage and high hitstun, but lacks knockback for its power and has high ending lag. Useful for retaliating after dodging with her effective crouch. It is also capable of launching opponents behind her, which can be immediately followed up with a reversed forward tilt or a [[B-reversing#Reverse Neutral Special Move|reversed]] fully charged Sun Salutation.

|dashdmg=6%

|dashdesc=Assumes the Gate pose while sliding to attack with her arcing arm. It has a respectable duration, which makes it useful for mindgames when used alongside a [[Fox-trotting|fox-trot]]. However, it is punishable on shield.

|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|15.5}}/{{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|14}}

|fsmashdesc=Assumes the Warrior pose to attack with her outstretched arms on both sides. Strikes in both directions, but the backward hit may miss smaller characters. Its front hit may not reliably connect, as the hitbox is at Wii Fit Trainer's arm, especially if the opponent is small or the opponent has been buried. Its sweetspot KOs middleweights at 103% while near the edge. However, its considerable start-up and ending lag make it very punishable.

|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|18}} (clean hands), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|15}} (clean body), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|11}} (late lands), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|8}} (late body)

|usmashdesc=Assumes the Tree pose to attack with her outstretched, clasped hands. It has good vertical range and its clean hitboxes grant [[intangibility]] from start-up, making it useful for aerial protection. However, its purely vertical hitbox makes it extremely difficult to use against a grounded opponent, as Wii Fit Trainer has to practically touch them in order to hit them. In addition, it is very punishable because of its considerable start-up and ending lag. Its clean hands' hitbox KOs middleweights at 98% from center-stage, whereas its clean body's hitbox KOs them at 106%.

|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|12}} (outside), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|10}} (inside)

|dsmashdesc=Performs an Arm & Leg Lift to attack with an outstretched arm and outstretched leg. It is a [[semi-spike]] and boasts very high knockback, which makes it very useful for punishing rolls, setting up edge-guards or KOing outright. Due to Wii Fit Trainer's excellent crouch height, it can even avoid certain moves for a free retaliating hit. Due to having the highest amount of start-up lag out her smash attacks, as well as a considerable amount of ending lag, it is very punishable. Its outside hitbox KOs middleweights at 113% while near the edge.

|nairdmg=5% (hit 1), 9% (hit 2)

|nairdesc=Assumes the Jackknife pose to attack with her arms and legs. It deals impressive damage when both of its hits connect, connects much easier compared to most of her attacks thanks to its fairly large hitbox, has minimal ending and landing lag, and auto-cancels from a short hop. Altogether, these traits make it a very useful combo starter when [[Short hop fast fall L-cancel#Short hop fast fall|SHFF]]'d, and her overall best combo starter. Its most reliable combos are into her forward and up tilts from 0%-10%, with the former tilt being capable of leading into aerial combos when connecting with its leg hitbox, while the latter tilt can combo into her neutral attack. Beginning at 50%, it can combo into her other aerials, which are effective up to high percentages, or even set up into an up smash for a KO. In the event both hits do not land, it still has combo potential via its first hit, which can combo into a back aerial.

|fairdmg=10% (clean), 6% (late)

|fairdesc=Performs a Single Leg Extension to attack with an outstretched arm and outstretched leg. Due to its hitbox placements, it can hit opponents in front of and/or behind her, but can be awkward to connect with due to its small hitboxes. Wii Fit Trainer's leg can [[meteor smash]] when clean, and thanks to it coming out on frame 9 like her arm hitbox, it is among the fastest meteor smashes in the game. It also has [[sex kick]] properties, but unlike typical sex kicks, it has a short duration. Auto-cancels from a short hop.

|uairname=&nbsp;

|uairdmg=10%

|dairname=&nbsp;

|dairdmg=13% (clean grounded), 14% (clean aerial), 8% (late)

|fsdmg=5%, 4%, 3% (based on position and timing)

|fsdesc=Assumes the Warrior pose to emit several multicolored afterimages forward, with each afterimage dealing damage and launching any opponents hit.

*Of all the characters in ''Smash 4'' who have male and female variants, Wii Fit Trainer is the only one who is female by default.

**Additionally, Wii Fit Trainer is the only one without a different name in Japan.

*In PAL French, Spanish, and German, the voice clip from the announcer on the victory screen is slightly different from the one used on the character select screen, instead featuring a noticeable translation of "the" ("'''l'''{{'}}Entraîneuse Wii Fit"/"'''l'''{{'}}Entraîneur Wii Fit", "'''la''' Entrenadora de Wii Fit"/"'''el''' Entrenador de Wii Fit", and "'''die''' Wii Fit-Trainerin"/"'''der''' Wii Fit-Trainer"). Oddly, this did not carry over to the NTSC French and Spanish translation.

*Interestingly, all of Wii Fit Trainer's grounded weak hitstun animations are directly copied from {{SSB4|Zelda}}'s animations due to briefly assuming her stance at the end. This assumes that Zelda's skeleton was used as a base when creating Wii Fit Trainer's skeleton.
