In both ''Smash Bros.'' games, her attack as an Assist Trophy is a mix of her critical attack and her normal attack as a Lord before she is promoted in ''Fire Emblem''. Unlike the playable ''Fire Emblem'' characters who fight with their legendary weapons (with the exception of [[Robin]]), Lyn wields the Mani Katti, not her more powerful semi-legendary weapon, the Sol Katti. However, the Mani Katti is the partner blade of Sol Katti, both of which are unique to Lyn.

In ''Brawl'', Lyn appears as an [[Assist Trophy]]. Upon being summoned, she charges her sword and causes the screen to fade to dark slightly, before teleporting near an enemy to deliver a slash. She usually hits the opponent closest to her. The slash is very powerful (KOing even heavyweights at as low as 35%) and pinpoint accurate (even against a moving or airborne foes). It can also hit an enemy that is edge grabbing. However, her attack can be avoided with a well-timed air dodge or roll, and Lyn will pseudo-self destruct without attacking if she happens to be summoned over terrain that will disappear before she lands. The animation of her slash and the screen darkening is similar to [[Meta Knight]]'s [[Galaxia Darkness]].

! Character(s)

Lyn reprises her role as an Assist Trophy, functioning similarly to her appearance in ''Brawl''; however, she can be defeated by taking enough hits and her attack is heavily [[nerfed]], but has a larger hitbox. While she still performs the same slash, it now appears as a crescent-shaped slice instead of a straight line across the screen.

|desc-ntsc=Her real name is Lyndis, and she's the last survivor of one of the Sacaen tribes. She's strong and friendly, and her swordsmanship is epic. If you summon her in this game, she'll charge herself up before laying a critical hit on her nearest opponent. Expect a solid strike from her to leave a mark!

She can be defeated, just like her appearance in ''Smash 4''. If an attack fails to KO her, she will retaliate instantly. [[Training Mode]] describes her Assist Trophy: ''Prepares and then executes a devastating slash. If she's struck, she'll counterattack.''

Oddly, unlike [[Marth]], [[Roy]], [[Ike]], [[Tiki]], and the [[Black Knight]], but like [[Lucina]], Lyn is not voiced by her current English voice actress, {{s|Wikipedia|Wendee Lee}}, who has portrayed her since 2017 in ''{{s|fireemblem|Fire Emblem Heroes}}'' and ''{{s|fireemblem|Fire Emblem Warriors}}''; instead, the English version of ''Ultimate'' reuses Lani Minella's portrayal of Lyn from ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4''. Even more strange is the fact that Lee is credited in ''Ultimate''. Meanwhile, the Japanese version also reuses Makiko Ōmoto's portrayal from ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4''.
