'''Pokémon Ranger''' is a playable character in [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta]]'s version of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. He was confirmed on September 15th, 2015 when Nutta was bored and no one else was online. The Pokémon Ranger is represented by [[bulbapedia:Ben (Ranger)|Ben]], the male player character from ''[[bulbapedia:Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs|Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]]'', and his female counterpart, [[bulbapedia:Summer (Ranger)|Summer]], appears in half of his costumes. They are joined by the [[bulbapedia:Ukulele Pichu|ukulele-playing Pichu]] that serves as a partner Pokémon in their home game, who attacks for the ranger in most of the moves (like {{SSB4|Olimar}}'s Pikmin), as well as a number of other Pokémon that appear only for special attacks.

The Pokémon Ranger uses moves based off of the ''Pokémon Ranger'' spin-off games in the {{uv|Pokémon}} series- mainly ''Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs'', with some elements from previous games. Most of his moves have the Pichu attack, although some, such as his neutral attack, have the ranger himself attack. Unlike Olimar's Pikmin, Rosalina's Lumas, and Nana from the Ice Climbers, Pichu cannot be KO'd without the Ranger, and they cannot be split up.

|edgedmg=5%

|nsdefdmg=5% per hit (max of 20%) (Burn), 27% (Cut), — (Stink), 22% (Tackle), 10% (Electrify)

|nsdefdesc=The Ranger pulls out a Poké Ball and summons a Pokémon to attack. The Pokémon that will be summoned is shown with an icon above the Ranger's head, which will loop as long as the attack button is held. The order is Burn (Magmortar using Flamethrower) > Cut (Gallade using Cut) > Stink (Skuntank using Poison Gas) > Tackle (Rampardos using Tackle) > Electrify (Magnezone using Zap Cannon) > Burn, etc. Burn has high range and can hit up to four times, Cut has low range but high knockback and power, Stink causes no damage but makes opponents [[Dizzy]], Tackle causes no knockback but [[bury|buries]] opponents, and Electrify causes no knockback and little damage but paralyzes opponents for a few seconds.

|nsc1dmg=20% (all but Cut), 10% per hit (max of 20%) (Cut)

|nsc1desc=All of the moves do the same amount of damage, but have different effects. Magmortar now breathes one large fireball, which causes more knockback than Flamethrower but has less range and only hits once; Gallade's Cut now hits twice and has more range, but overall does less damage and knockback; Skuntank's Stink now causes damage and flinching but cannot make opponents dizzy; Rampardos' Tackle is slightly weaker and can't bury, but has more range and causes knockback; Magnezone's Zap Cannon is more powerful but has no knockback and can't paralyze opponents.

|nsc2dmg=10% per hit (max of 40%) (Burn), 35% (Cut), 5% (Stink), 30% (Tackle), 20% (Electrify)

|ssdefname=Poké Assist

|ssdefdmg=1% per hit (max of 10%) (Flying), 2% per hit (max of 12%) (Water), 8% (Poison)

|ssdefdesc=Like with Field Move, holding the button will loop through different options. However, there are only three. Flying summons Pidgeot, who uses Gust to create a small tornado that flies forwards across the screen, trapping enemies and doing damage before hurling them up and dissipating. Water summons Corphish, who uses Bubble to create six bubbles, which will pop when collided with, doing 2% damage each. Poison summons Muk, who uses Sludge Wave to splash nearby opponents with poisonous liquid, making them dizzy and doing damage.

|ssc1name=Powerful Poké Assist

|ssc1dmg=15% (all)

|ssc1desc=All of the moves do the same amount of damage, but are otherwise less effective. Pidgeot's Gust now just creates a wave of air, which causes no knockback. Corphish's Bubble creates only a single Bubble, which can only collide with one opponent before popping. Muk's Sludge Wave can no longer make opponents dizzy.

|ssc2name=Random Poké Assist

|ssc2dmg=5% per hit (max of 50%) (Flying), 8% per hit (max of 48%) (Water), 35% (Poison)

|ssc2desc=All of the moves are much more powerful, but which move is used is now randomized instead of being looped through when the button is held.

|usdefdmg=5% (Noctowl), 10% (Pidgeot), 7% (Fearow), 18% (Flygon), 30% (Honchkrow)

|usdefdesc=The Ranger summons a flying-type Pokémon to carry him upwards, similar to Charizard's up special. Like Field Move and Poké Assist, holding the button will loop through different Pokémon, which each have slightly different effects. Noctowl goes the highest, but does the least damage; Pidgeot gains moderate height and does moderate damage; Fearow is between Noctowl and Pidgeot in height and damage; Flygon doesn't go as high as Pidgeot, but does more damage; Honchkrow is a terrible recovery, but does the most damage.

|usc1name=Damaging Flight

|usc1dmg=25%

|usc1desc=All Pokémon have the same height gain and damage dealt, which is between Flygon and Honchkrow's originals.

|usc2name=Speedy Flight

|usc2dmg=6%

|usc2desc=All Pokémon have the same height gain and damage dealt, which is between Noctowl's and Fearow's.

|dsdefdmg=— (all effects but one), 5% per hit (max of 20%)

|dsdefdesc=Pichu strums its ukulele, which causes a random effect. It will either put opponents to sleep, make them dizzy, put flowers on their heads, or create four waves that do damage.

|dsc1name=Melody of Banana Peels

|dsc1dmg=2% per hit (max of 20%)

|dsc1desc=Pichu strums its ukulele, which causes all opponents nearby to trip uncontrollably and take minor damage until Pichu is done.

|dsc2name=Melody of Creation

|dsc2desc=Pichu strums its ukulele, which creates an item (a [[Bob-Omb]], a [[Beam Sword]], a [[Mr. Saturn]], a [[Green Shell]], or, rarely, a [[Golden Hammer]]) that only the Ranger can pick up.

|fsdmg=2% per hit (up to 18%) (Raikou), 10% per hit (up to 200%) (Entei), 100% (Suicune), 318% total max

|fsdesc=The Ranger uses the Capture Styler to summon Raikou, Entei, and Suicune, one at a time. Raikou's Spark pulls opponents towards the Ranger, where Entei appears and traps the opponents with Fire Spin, followed by Suicune appearing and sending opponents flying with Blizzard.
