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

In the SNES version of ''SimCity'', the player was cast as mayor, assisted by Dr. Wright. Named after series creator Will Wright, 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 is tasked with giving the mayor timely advice to help his budding city flourish and prosper, while preventing its destruction from various disasters, natural and otherwise; such as a Godzilla-like attack from none other than [[Bowser]].

As a character appearing in an old port of a primarily PC-based series not owned by Nintendo - although the character himself ''is'' owned by Nintendo - Dr. Wright is one of their most obscure properties. Most contemporary gamers were unaware of his existence until ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' in 2001.

'''Dr. Wright'''

:The assistant to the mayor of SimCity, Dr. Wright was actually named after the creator of the game. 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.

===[[Assist Trophy]]===

The Doctor uses his baton to erect three sky scrapers 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]].

Dr. Wright has a comprehensive knowledge of city government and is happy to give you tips to keep your city running smoothly. In the game, he tracks your city's status and gives you gifts.

===Assist Trophy Origin===

Dr. Wright made his first appearance in the ''SNES'' version of ''SimCity''. In ''SimCity'', he acts as an advisor for the player. Throughout the game he gives players tips on how to manage the city. The purpose of ''SimCity'' was to make the city wealthy and have a large amount of population. A stated before, Dr. Wright helped the player by giving the player hints and suggestions on how to get the city prosperous. After a certain amount of time, Dr. Wright will reward the player with gifts for the city such as a casino or a bank. In ''Brawl'', Dr. Wright appears and erects three skyscrapers.

*Dr Wright is one of only two assist trophies to have different poses for his artwork in the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] and his ''Brawl'' trophy (the other being [[Lyn]]). The DOJO!! art is identical to his trophy's pose in ''Melee''.

:*Interestingly, both Wright and Lyn hold a shade of green as their hair color.

*If Dr. Wright is facing a non [[platform]] side, then Dr. Wright will sprout the building on the platform under him. If there are no platform under the platform he is standing on, he will sprout the building on him.
