Swap (チェンジ, Change), officially referred to as Swap to Mythra (ヒカリチェンジ, Hikari Change) and Swap to Pyra (ホムラチェンジ, Homura Change), is Pyra and Mythra's down special move in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It allows Pyra and Mythra to turn into each other, in the same fashion as Zelda and Sheik's Transform in Melee and Brawl.

Overview

Like Transform in Melee, Swap is a very fast switch between Pyra and Mythra. The move is fairly fast to complete, allowing Pyra/Mythra to act earlier than Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon after Pokémon Change, and having no cooldown for each transformation; unlike with Pokémon Change, however, Pyra/Mythra are granted intangibility for a shorter duration, starting from frame 6 instead of frame 1. Additionally, both characters maintain their drift when using the move, greatly circumventing potential momentum loss, especially in the case of Mythra swapping to Pyra.

Both have quotes they will say when swapping to the other:

Pyra

To Mythra:

  • "Switching!"
  • "To you!"
  • "Mythra!

From Mythra:

  • "Right here!"
  • "Got it!"

Mythra

To Pyra:

  • "Swap!"
  • "All yours!"
  • "Pyra!"

From Pyra:

  • "Let me at 'em!"
  • "You're done!"
