Swim times are only reset by landing on dry land, simply jumping out of the water momentarily will not give you any extra time (although it will stall the amount of time). The game keeps track of how many times you KO by drowning.

Swimming is an action in Super Smash Bros. Brawl that lets a player swim in water, instead of falling right through it like in its predecessor, Super Smash Bros. Melee. The time in which players can continue to swim is determined by how much damage has been received. The more damage one has accumulated results in shorter time the character can stay afloat before drowning. Every character can swim, but each has a predetermined swim time depending on the character. Some characters, such as Squirtle and King Dedede, have somewhat long swim times while characters like Charizard, Samus and Sonic have relatively short swim times even at zero percent damage.

One can visually tell how long one has left to swim. When they still have plenty of time left, the character will casually tread water and swim around well. But as time begins to run out, the character will begin to panic, reducing their ability to move through the water.

Swim times are only reset by landing on dry land; simply jumping out of the water momentarily will not give you any extra time (although it will stall the amount of time). The game keeps track of how many times you KO by drowning.
