'''Olimar''' ({{ja|ピクミン&オリマー|Pikumin & Orimā}}, ''Pikmin & Olimar'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. He was officially revealed on June 12th, 2018 alongside {{SSBU|Diddy Kong}} and the rest of the returning roster. In addition, '''[[Alph]]''' ({{ja|ピクミン&アルフ|Pikumin & Arufu}}, ''Pikmin & Alph'') returns as an alternate character alongside Olimar. Olimar is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #40]]. Olimar uses {{b|Pikmin|species}} to assist him in attacking his foes, with a core playstyle revolving around managing and using his various Pikmin combinations to his advantage. | '''Olimar''' ({{ja|ピクミン&オリマー|Pikumin & Orimā}}, ''Pikmin & Olimar'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Olimar is ranked 33rd out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the B+ tier. This is a slight drop to his placement in ''SSB4'', where he was ranked 21st out of 54, and it is his lowest placement in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series to date. | Olimar is ranked 33rd out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the B+ tier.

Olimar received a mix of buffs, nerfs and glitch fixes via game updates, but was nerfed overall. Update {{SSBU|2.0.0}} fixed an infamous glitch which allowed Pikmin to double the strength of the spirit multiplier, causing attacks with his Pikmin to deal massive amounts of damage under the right circumstances. However, he received a glitch in this same update that caused all of his smash attacks to no longer increase in damage while being charged. While this glitch was fixed in update {{SSBU|3.0.0}}, this update also introduced another glitch that causes reflected Pikmin to inflict damage onto himself after they've returned to him, leading to the possibility of unintentional self-destructs caused by Olimar using moves that boast a great amount of KO power. The changes made to the shield mechanics in this same update also harmed him by making his smash attacks less safe on perfect shield. In addition, like with many other projectiles, his forward smash and Pikmin throw now deal less shield damage, although the amount of shieldstun went unchanged. | Olimar received a mix of buffs, nerfs and glitch fixes via game updates, but was noticeably nerfed overall.

Update {{SSBU|3.1.0}} was, by far, the update that nerfed Olimar the most. The size of Olimar's hurtbox has been enlarged, making him easier to hit even while shielding. His forward and up smashes had their ending lag increased, with the former smash attack also having its clean hitbox harder to land due to its duration being shortened.

His forward and up smashes had their ending lag increased, with the former smash attack also having its clean hitbox harder to land due to its duration being shortened. This same update also noticeably reduced the [[Winged Pikmin]]'s overall travel distance when they are used consecutively, hampering his recovery. However, update {{SSBU|4.0.0}} undid update 3.1.0.'s nerf to his clean forward smash's duration. | ||
Like many other characters, Olimar's shield was enlarged in update {{SSBU|7.0.0}}, which compensated his larger hurtbox by both fully covering him and making him less vulnerable to [[shield stab]]bing. Update {{SSBU|8.0.0}} buffed [[End of Day]]'s KO potential and range. Prior to update 10.0.0, if Olimar tried to use an aerial attack out of Winged Pikmin after using forward smash or Pikmin Throw, the move would act as if there were no Pikmin. This bug had plagued Olimar since ''SSB4'' and was finally fixed in 10.0.0, indirectly buffing Olimar. | Like many other characters, Olimar's shield was enlarged in update {{SSBU|7.0.0}}, which compensated his larger hurtbox by both fully covering him and making him less vulnerable to [[shield stab]]bing.

Due to Olimar's strongest traits being toned down, he is considered to be significantly worse than he was at the launch of ''Ultimate'' | Due to Olimar's strongest traits being toned down, he is considered to be significantly worse than he was at the launch of ''Ultimate''. | ||

|usmashdesc=Points upward to command a Pikmin to jump and perform a cartwheeling tackle. The leaping Pikmin can be reflected. This move has uses in starting combos at low to mid percents; depending on the opponent's character, any aerial can be used out of an up smash. Notably, an up air chain out from an up smash, leading to an extremely damaging combo. Its short endlag and high shieldstun make the move tricky to punish on whiff and on block. Up smash is also a good out of shield option due to its deceptively good horizontal range and great vertical range and duration, making it useful for punishing landings and occasionally juggling opponents. Up smash is also a strong KOing move, KOing at or below 150% with all Pikmin except White. However, it can easily be beaten due to its projectile attributes, making them lose out to any other active hitbox. | |usmashdesc=Points upward to command a Pikmin to jump and perform a cartwheeling tackle.

Due to its low landing lag, it is also very good for combos at low percents, as well as being safe on shield if spaced well. In addition, it can also KO if used with Red or Purple Pikmin.

In the early metagame, Olimar was widely considered a contender for the best character in ''Ultimate'', alongside others like {{SSBU|Peach}} and {{SSBU|Pichu}}. Olimar received several improvements to his moveset compared to his ''SSB4'' iteration, including stronger throws, a quick [[Pikmin Pluck]], and less lag on his smash attacks—especially his up smash. This, along with Olimar's increased speed, made him a more potent character both offensively and defensively. As a result of these strengths, players such as {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|Shuton}}, and {{Sm|Myran}} achieved solid results with Olimar and consistently placed in top 8 at several tournaments. | In the early metagame, Olimar was widely considered a contender for the best character in ''Ultimate'', alongside others like {{SSBU|Peach}} and {{SSBU|Pichu}}.

Subsequent updates, especially 3.0.0 and 3.1.0, impaired Olimar both directly and indirectly. These updates nerfed Olimar's smash attacks and made them less safe on shield, while [[Pikmin Throw]] dealt less shield damage.

The post-online metagame saw the rise of several new Olimar players, most notably {{Sm|Noi}} and {{Sm|Tsubotsubo}} in Japan. However, these Olimar players often had co-mains or secondaries that they also used, in this case {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}} and {{SSBU|Joker}}, respectively. In addition, the new solo Olimar players, most notably {{Sm|MFA}} and {{Sm|Candle}}, were either less consistent or had a smaller presence on a national scale. When coupled with the rise of other characters initially ranked below Olimar, the second tier list saw him slide down to 33rd, now ranking in the B+ tier. | The post-online metagame saw the rise of several new Olimar players, most notably {{Sm|Noi}} and {{Sm|Tsubotsubo}} in Japan.

*As of update 2.0.0, if Olimar's Pikmin latch onto something and it changes size with them still latched on, they will change their size too.
