During and following the [[COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on competitive Smash|COVID-19 pandemic]], Pokémon Trainer saw a decline in tourney success, due to multiple factors such as buffs to other characters, a lack of viability online, [[downloadable content]] bringing forth a number of stronger characters, and new weaknesses growing more apparent such as limited landing options, linear gameplans, poor ledge options, and an over-reliance on [[Pokémon Change]] to cover one another's weaknesses. In addition, [[Ivysaur (SSBU)|Ivysaur]], who was initially considered the best Pokémon of the three, received nerfs in Patch 4.0.0 such as increased startup lag on [[Razor Leaf]], reduced knockback on [[Vine Whip]], and down aerial's smaller sweetspot. | During and following the [[COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on competitive Smash|COVID-19 pandemic]], Pokémon Trainer saw a decline in tourney success, due to multiple factors such as buffs to other characters, a lack of viability online, [[downloadable content]] bringing forth a number of stronger characters, and new weaknesses growing more apparent such as limited landing options, linear gameplans, poor ledge options, and an over-reliance on [[Pokémon Change]] to cover one another's weaknesses.

Most likely as a result of this, almost all of Pokémon Trainer's best players from the early metagame either dropped the character (most notably HIKARU and Tweek), relegated the character to a secondary (most notably Ned), or stopped competing altogether (most notably Leffen and Wishes). Although this led to a decline in representation, several new Pokémon Trainer players stepped into the limelight, including {{Sm|Atelier}} and {{Sm|DDee}}. Most notable among these new players was {{Sm|Quidd}}, who won the major {{Trn|Let's Make Big Moves 2022}} and has since been a consistent top 50 player despite limited appearances outside of his region. The efforts of these players has kept Pokémon Trainer's reputation afloat, and he is still considered a strong character in the current metagame. This is reflected in the character's current placement on the tier list, where he is ranked | Most likely as a result of this, almost all of Pokémon Trainer's best players from the early metagame either dropped the character (most notably HIKARU and Tweek), relegated the character to a secondary (most notably Ned), or stopped competing altogether (most notably Leffen and Wishes).
