'''Doc Louis''' ({{ja|ドック・ルイス|Dokku Ruisu}}, ''Doc Louis'') is a non-playable [[character]] from the {{uv|Punch-Out!!}} series. He is a retired boxer who trains [[Little Mac]] in the NES and Wii ''Punch-Out!!'' games.

==Origin==
Doc Louis first appeared in ''Punch-Out!!''. He is an ex-heavyweight boxing champion and Little Mac's coach. He can be seen training him throughout the ''Punch-Out!!'' series, and is the sparring opponent in ''Doc Louis's Punch-Out!!'', a WiiWare game serving as a spinoff of the ''Punch-Out!!'' Wii game.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
Doc Louis does not appear in ''Brawl'' in person, but he is mentioned in the description of [[Little Mac]]'s trophy.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
Doc Louis appears in {{SSB4|Little Mac}}'s trailer for ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', where he is seen training him, as well as narrating the gameplay portion of the trailer as advice called out to Mac. He appears in all of Little Mac's [[victory pose]]s in the game itself, briefly sparring with him and cheering him on. Occasionally when Little Mac [[taunt]]s in game, Doc can be heard cheering for him. These clips change with Little Mac's size, and can even play when Little Mac is [[Metal Box|metal]]. A real life Doc Louis also appears in an American commercial for {{for3ds}}.

===Victory pose dialogue===
In all of Little Mac's victory poses, Doc is seen saying one of the following phrases:

*"You win, Mac!"
*"Was that a little too easy for ya, son?"
*"Nice work, Mac. You got it all figured out."
*"World Circuit's all yours, Mac!"
*"(in tandem with the [[announcer]]) And the winner is... Little Mac! Hahaha!"
*"Ya got what it takes, Mac!"
*"Ahh, winnin' feels good, don't it?"
*"Way to go, Mac! You're the champ, baby!"
*"Alright! I think I hear a chocolate bar callin'."
*"Y'know, that belt looks good on you, son."

In addition, Doc will say one of the following phrases if Little Mac is in his [[Alternate costume (SSB4)#Little Mac|wireframe attire]].

*"Nice moves, Mac. I could barely keep my eyes on ya, son."
*"Ain't you flashy? You making my eyes water, son."
*"You're lookin' mighty good, son. Just like old times, huh?"

===In [[Smash Tour]]===
Doc Louis also appears as a blue item in Smash Tour. When his trophy is used in a turn of the game board, it boosts the effect of all powerups gathered by 1.5×.

===Trophy===
Doc Louis appears as a [[trophy]] in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.

|desc-ntsc=Every great boxer needs a capable teacher. Little Mac lucked out with former famous heavyweight Doc Louis. If he's not eating his favorite chocolate bar or making jokes, he's sparring with Little Mac. He'll gladly take a knockout blow from Little Mac if it will help the boxer make it big!
|desc-pal=Behind every great boxer is a first-class coach, and energetic former heavy-weight champion Doc Louis is Little Mac's. Now and then, he'll put his chocolate bar down, his game face on, and spar with Little Mac, throwing punches just like in his glory days. No one's happier to take a knockout blow from Little Mac than Doc Louis!

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
Doc Louis reprises his appearances in Little Mac's taunts and victory poses. Due to the sped up victory animations, some of Doc's quotes are cut short, including the three wireframe-exclusive quotes.

===Spirit===
In addition, he appears in [[World of Light]] as a [[master spirit]]. Defeating him will unlock the gym, where Doc Louis will train up to four primary spirits at a time. Spirits left in the gym will steadily gain experience, even when the game is shut off.

==Trivia==
*Doc Louis was not dubbed in Japanese in ''Punch-Out!!'' for the Wii, making ''Smash 4'' the first game to give him a voice in Japanese.
*The icon for the event match [[Getting Healthy]] in ''for Wii U'' depicts Doc Louis in an actual match, despite him only normally appearing in Little Mac's victory screens and other non-gameplay roles.
