His appearance as an unlockable [[Assist Trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' is his (as well as any ''Golden Sun'' character's) first appearance in 3D, the first time his voice was heard (being, again, the first appearance of any ''Golden Sun'' character's voice as well) and was the only appearance of ''Golden Sun'' in any official format between 2002 and 2010. | ||

The game focused on Isaac and friends' quest to retrieve the four elemental stars and stop the return of Alchemy, following their theft by the games' first two antagonists, Saturos and Menardi. Isaac is the main playable character in the game, and he is one of the four playable characters capable of wielding Psynergy, a form of mind power. Isaac is a Venus Adept, meaning he can manipulate Earth and plants. As the game progresses, Isaac and friends gain access to a wider variety of Psynergy necessary to progress through the game. | ||

This game explains the story from Felix's point of view, and focuses on Felix and the full party as they are forced to return the flow of Alchemy to save their parents' lives, which are being threatened by the game's new antagonists, Karst and Agatio, as they continue what Saturos and Menardi could not after their death in the first game. | ||

It is a Utility Psynergy - that is, it cannot be used in battle, and it is acquired virtually at the start of the game. "Move" is used primarily to move heavy objects to solve puzzles. The use in ''Brawl'' is somewhat different; while it does move obstacles, it simply pushes them away in order to achieve a wide variety of different ends. | ||
In ''Ultimate'', the additional Psynergy that Isaac can use are called {{s|goldensununiverse|Teleport}} and {{s|goldensununiverse|Pound}}.

Both originated from the sequel game, ''Golden Sun: The Lost Age''. Unlike Move, which is an innate ability, Pound can be learned by equipping the Pound Cube, and Teleport can be learned with Teleport Lapis. Also, like Move, both Pound and Teleport's usage in the original game versus in ''Ultimate'' are different, as in ''The Lost Age'', Pound's primary use is to solve puzzles by flattening wooden posts and destroying stone pillars, and aside from impeding certain Djinn from advancing to an inaccessible area, it lacks offensive means, while Teleport is generally used to access secret areas via stone circles, with the ability to revisit past towns as a secondary bonus. | ||

After being absent from | After being absent from ''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U'', Isaac returns to ''Ultimate'' with a slight redesign to his appearance, mirroring his original ''Golden Sun'' artwork. In addition to using the Move Psynergy from ''Brawl'', he also is capable of using Pound, another Utility Psynergy, as well as a unique ability similar to the Lift Psynergy where he grabs an opponent takes them off the stage. The usage of Pound means that Isaac is now capable of causing damage to opponents, which deals an average of 12.0% damage to fighters. | ||
Isaac's | Isaac's mechanics in ''Ultimate'' versus ''Brawl'' are more advanced. As opposed to remaining stationary and using Move three times, Isaac now uses Teleport to move around the stage and can perform one of three different Utility Psynergies; Move, Pound, and a variation on Lift. Move appears to remain his most used of Psynergies, as it retains the pushback it had in Brawl. Lift operates similar to the [[Beetle]] where it can lift a fighter above the top boundary line and also has an animation of the hands failing to capture the fighter, as well as when the fighter breaks free from the grip. | ||

However, in spite of his ability to use Teleport, he can manually return to the stage when knocked back, as well as perform evasive maneuvers such as the [[Air dodge]]. | ||
