'''Dr. Wright''' ({{ja|ドクターライト|Dokutā Raito}}, ''Doctor Wright'') is a character that appeared in the SNES version of ''SimCity''. In ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'', he is seen as a normal [[trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as well as an [[Assist Trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

==Origin==
[[File:Dr. Wright SimCity SNES.png|thumb|left|175px|Dr. Wright as the adviser in ''SimCity'' (SNES).]]
Dr. Wright made his debut in the SNES (and cancelled NES) version of ''SimCity''. In ''SimCity'', he acts as an adviser for the player, giving players tips on how to manage the city. Named after series creator {{iw|wikipedia|Will Wright|game designer}}, he possesses tall green hair and eyebrows with a black toothbrush mustache. He wears spectacles and a brown suit with a purple bow tie, and holds a white baton. Dr. Wright helped the player by giving the player hints and suggestions on how to get the city prosperous, while preventing its destruction from various disasters, natural and otherwise - including a Godzilla-like attack from none other than [[Bowser]]. He reappeared in this role in the Japan-only ''SimCity 64'', which was developed by [[HAL Laboratory]].

As a character appearing in games of a primarily PC-based series not owned by Nintendo—although the character himself ''is'' owned by Nintendo—Dr. Wright is relatively obscure and is rarely referenced outside of ''Smash''. He appears in ''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening'', although he is called "{{s|zeldawiki|Mr. Write}}" in the English version. He also serves as the basis for {{s|zeldawiki|Dr. Left}} from ''Oracle of Seasons'' and ''The Minish Cap''.

As a player, you'd have to use your wisdom and experience to give timely advice to the mayor; if you did a good job, the city prospered. Dr. Wright is one of the leaders in the all-time, bizarre Nintendo-game-hairstyle contest.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
Dr. Wright appears as a trophy and an Assist Trophy.

===As an [[Assist Trophy]]===
[[File:DrWrightAttack.jpg|thumb|Dr. Wright causing buildings to appear in ''Brawl''.]]
When Dr. Wright is summoned, he uses his baton to erect three skyscrapers beside him, hurling players into the air. There is a one in ten chance that he will instead create super scrapers, covering a larger area and dealing more [[damage]]. He has a small hitbox below him when he is falling after being summoned, which deals 2%. In Japanese, Dr. Wright speaks with Japanese Onomatopoeia and shares voice actors with [[Leon Powalski]] in the same game. In English, he has less Japanese-sounding grunts and is voiced by Nate Bihldorff, a Senior localization manager for [[Nintendo|Nintendo of America]].

|desc-ntsc=This hardworking assistant is the most trustworthy partner a mayor could ask for. If trouble strikes your city, he'll be right there to offer advice. In Smash Bros., he'll attack by constructing a building in the middle of the battlefield. It's tough to aim but can launch your foes.
|desc-pal=As the mayor's hard-working assistant, Dr. Wright will sometimes bring ideas to the table when it comes to the delicate art of city-building. Other times, he'll bring gifts! His gift to you in this game is an attack that makes a new building shoot up in the blink of an eye. Use it to become the architect of your enemy's destruction!

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
===As an Assist Trophy===
[[File:Dr.Wright SSBU.gif|thumb|200px|Dr. Wright as an Assist Trophy in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].]]
Dr. Wright appears as an Assist Trophy and reprises his behavior from ''Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.

Dr. Wright's entrance animation is slightly different compared to his previous entrance animations. Dr. Wright can be attacked, though doing so will result in him counterattacking with even larger skyscrapers. In either case, however, his attack is considerably weaker than it was before. He can be KO'd if he takes enough damage, though doing so can be quite difficult due to how short he remains onscreen.

Dr. Wright cannot be summoned on [[Arena Ferox]], [[Brinstar]], [[Corneria]], [[Dream Land GB]], [[Duck Hunt]], [[King of Fighters Stadium]], [[Luigi's Mansion]], [[Magicant]], [[Mishima Dojo]], [[Pac-Land]], [[Paper Mario]], [[Peach's Castle]], [[Spiral Mountain]], [[Spirit Train]], [[Super Mario Maker]], [[Tomodachi Life]], and [[Wrecking Crew]].

===Spirit===
Dr. Wright also appears as an Ace-class [[support spirit]]. He can be obtained through its challenge by collecting 777 unique spirits.

Dr. Wright's Spirit Battle uses an army of {{SSBU|Villager}} puppet fighters and is fought on the [[New Donk City]] stage's [[Ω form]]. During the battle, Dr. Wright appears as a hostile Assist Trophy.

==Trivia==
*Dr. Wright is one of only three Assist Trophies in ''Brawl'' whose actual [[trophy]] is posed differently from his artwork on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]]. [[Lyn]] and [[Mr. Resetti]] are the others.
*If Dr. Wright is facing away from the stage into empty space, then he will sprout the building on the platform under him. If there are no platforms under the platform he is standing on, he will sprout the building where he is standing.
*Dr. Wright and [[Yuri]] are the only characters in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series created and owned by [[Nintendo]] to hail from a third-party universe; in his case {{uv|SimCity}} was originally created by Maxis and is owned by Electronic Arts. 
**The reverse is true of [[Geno]].
