'''Isaac''' ({{ja|ロビン|Robin}}, ''Robin'') is the main protagonist of ''Golden Sun'' for the Game Boy Advance. His appearance as an unlockable [[Assist Trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' is his (as well as any ''Golden Sun'' characters) first appearance in 3D, the first time his voice was heard (again, being 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.

==Origin==
[[File:Golden Sun Move.png|left|thumb|175px|Isaac using Move in ''Golden Sun''.]]
{{s|goldensununiverse|Isaac}} originally appeared in ''{{s|goldensununiverse|Golden Sun}}'', an RPG-style game for the Game Boy Advance. 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.
 
Isaac returns in the game's sequel, ''{{s|goldensununiverse|Golden Sun: The Lost Age}}'', but instead appears as one of the eight party members led by the game's protagonist, {{s|goldensununiverse|Felix}}. This game explains the story from Felix's perspective, 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.
 
He also briefly appears in the most recent game in the series, ''{{iw|goldensununiverse|Golden Sun: Dark Dawn}}'', this time as the father of the main character, {{s|goldensununiverse|Matthew}}. He joins Matthew's party briefly at the beginning of the game, and after prompting Matthew to join Garet's son, {{iw|goldensununiverse|Tyrell}}, on a quest to both repair Ivan's soarwing (due to Tyrell being responsible for its destruction) and to develop into a warrior, Isaac is not seen for the rest of the game's plot.
 
The Psynergy that Isaac uses in ''Brawl'' is called {{s|goldensununiverse|Move}}. It is a Utility Psynergy (that is, it cannot be used in battle) and it is acquired 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 pushes them away in order to achieve a wide variety of different effects.
 
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 via Teleport Lapis.  Also, like Move, both Pound and Teleport's usage in the original game versus ''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 stopping certain Djinn from advancing to an inaccessible area, it lacks offensive purposes, while Teleport is generally used to access secret areas via stone circles, with the ability to revisit past towns as a secondary bonus.
 
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
===As an [[Assist Trophy]]===
[[File:Isaac Brawl gameplay.jpg|thumb|Isaac using Move on {{SSBM|Yoshi's Island}}.]]
When Isaac appears, he uses the Move Psynergy as his in-game battle ability, which creates a hand-shaped energy field that [[push]]es foes away and off the [[stage]]. If an enemy is hit by Move, it can be difficult to escape. Isaac will turn to face enemies during this attack should they attempt to evade. However, like in the ''Golden Sun'' series, Move does not inflict damage.  Isaac performs Move three times before vanishing.
 
Unlike many other Assist Trophies, Isaac can affect [[invincible]] opponents, since Move pushes the opponent and does not inflict damage. If Move makes contact with a [[Smash Ball]], the sound of the Smash Ball being hit will play, along with its visual effects.
 
To unlock Isaac, players must play 200 matches to completion.

[[File:SSBUWebsiteIsaac1.jpg|thumb|Isaac using Move on the [[Ω form]] of [[Great Plateau Tower]] stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.]]
When Isaac appears, he uses what is normally a utility effect, a Psynergy spell called "Move", as his in-game battle effect, which creates an energy field in the shape of a giant hand three times in total that pushes foes away and off the [[stage]]. If the player is hit by one of the hands, it is difficult to escape. Isaac will turn to face enemies during this attack should they attempt to evade. However, like in the ''Golden Sun'' series, the move does no damage.  
After being absent from [[Super Smash Bros. 4|''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS'' and ''Wii U'']], Isaac returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' with a slight redesign that mirrors his original ''Golden Sun'' artwork. In addition to using the Move Psynergy from ''Brawl'', he is also capable of using Pound, another Utility Psynergy, as well as a unique ability similar to the Lift Psynergy where he grabs an opponent and takes them off the stage. Unlike Move, Pound inflicts damage (12% on average) to fighters.


Isaac's behavior in ''Ultimate'' is also more advanced than in ''Brawl''.  As opposed to remaining stationary and using Move three times, Isaac now uses Teleport to move around the stage and can perform one of the three different Utility Psynergies: Move, Pound, and a variation of Lift. Move appears to remain his most used of Psynergies, as it retains the pushback it had in ''Brawl''. Lift functions similar to the [[Beetle]] where it can lift a fighter above the upper blast line and also has an animation of the hands failing to capture the fighter, as well as when the fighter breaks free from its grip.
This move was present in ''Golden Sun'' and ''Golden Sun: The Lost Age'' for the Game Boy Advance, where it was the first Psynergy move that Isaac, Garet, and Felix could learn. It allowed the Adepts to push movable objects, usually to solve a puzzle in a dungeon.


Isaac, like some Assist Trophies in ''Ultimate'', is also now capable of being KO'd. By extension, he can be covered in {{SSBU|Inkling}}'s [[ink]]. However, despite his ability to use Teleport, Isaac can manually return to the stage when launched away, as well as perform evasive maneuvers such as [[air dodge]]s.
[[File:Isaac - Brawl Trophy.png|thumb|left|100px|The Isaac [[trophy]] from ''Brawl''.]]
To unlock Isaac, one must play 200 matches in ''Brawl'', or related modes.


Isaac cannot be summoned on [[Spear Pillar]], [[Spirit Train]], or [[King of Fighters Stadium]].
Unlike many other Smash Bros. Assist Trophies, his attacks can pierce [[Starman (item)|invincibility stars]], since they just "move" the opponent and don't do damage, so even invincible opponents could be knocked off the stage.

===Spirits===
==Origin==
Isaac also appears as two [[primary spirit]]s.
Isaac originally appeared in ''{{s|goldensununiverse|Golden Sun}}'', an RPG-style game for the GBA. 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' two villains, Saturos and Menardi. Isaac is the main playable character in the game, and each of the playable characters is 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, which are needed to progress through the game.
 
In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], Isaac is one of the countless spirits captured by [[Galeem]] during his takeover of the universe. After Galeem's defeat, [[Dharkon]] takes control of Galeem's spirits, including Isaac. After Dharkon's defeat, he flees to the final world, with Galeem following soon after. In the final world, Galeem and Dharkon wage war against each other using their captured spirits, with Galeem taking control of Isaac.
 
Isaac is represented by a {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} puppet fighter wearing the Isaac Wig and Isaac's Outfit and is fought on the [[Wuhu Island]] stage's Swaying Bridge layout alongside {{SSBU|Palutena}}, {{SSBU|Robin}}, and {{SSBU|Roy}} puppet fighters, with the latter three being stand-ins for {{iw|goldensununiverse|Mia}}, {{iw|goldensununiverse|Ivan}} and {{iw|goldensununiverse|Garet}}, respectively. During the battle, Isaac himself appears as a hostile Assist Trophy.
 
Isaac (Dark Dawn) can be obtained by [[Enhanceable spirit|enhancing]] Isaac's spirit at level 99.

==Trivia==
Isaac returns in the game's sequel, ''{{s|goldensununiverse|Golden Sun: The Lost Age}}'', but not as the main playable character, and instead as a character who joins the players party after a certain point in the game. He also briefly appears in the most recent game in the series, ''[[goldensununiverse:Golden Sun: Dark Dawn|Golden Sun: Dark Dawn]]'', this time as the father of the main character, Matthew.
*The hand that appears when Isaac uses his Utility Psynergies appears to share the same model as [[Master Hand]] in ''Ultimate''.
[[File:Isaac Brawl gameplay.jpg|thumb|Isaac in gameplay.]]
*Isaac is the only Assist Trophy in the history of ''Super Smash Bros.'' to have expanded abilities from his original appearance. In ''Brawl'', he could only use Move; in ''Ultimate'', he can use Pound, Teleport, and a variation of Lift while retaining his ability to use Move.
The Psynergy that Isaac uses in ''Brawl'', "Move", is a Utility Psynergy - that is, it cannot be used in battle, and it is acquired virtually at the start of the game. Its use in ''Brawl'' is somewhat different than its use in the games, where it is simply just used to move distant obstacles, in order to achieve a wide variety of different ends.
*Isaac and [[Gray Fox]] are the only Assist Trophies to skip an entry in the series and return in a later game.
**Both were also the only two veteran Assist Trophies to have promotional images shown on ''Ultimate''{{'}}s website.
*Isaac's voice clips in ''Brawl'' were performed by Teiya Ichiryūsai, who also performed [[Krystal]]'s Japanese dialogue on [[Lylat Cruise]]. These voice clips were recycled for Isaac when he returned in ''Ultimate''.
*In ''Ultimate'', although the hands spawned in by Isaac cannot be absorbed or reflected by normal means, they can be captured by [[Gravitational Pull]], and can even be used to damage the summoner when doing so.

==Trivia==
*If the "Move" Psynergy makes contact with a [[Smash Ball]], the sound of the Smash Ball being hit will play, along with its visual effects, despite the lack of damage from the "Move" Psynergy.
*Strangely Isaac doesn't have a Trophy and he's not an Assist Trophy in [[SSB4]].
