===Characters===
Character-based tips mainly provide information about characters' special moves.
*'''Donkey Kong: Hand Slap''' DK's Hand Slap affects a large area around him. however, it won't hit airborne fighters.
*'''PAC-MAN: Bonus Fruit''' PAC-MAN's melon moves slowly through the air, so it's harder to hit opponents with. But when it does hit home, it deals quite some damage.
*'''Palutena: Angelic Missile''' Palutena fires herself forward like a spinning torpedo. This move travels a long way, so be careful not to fire yourself right off the cliff!
*'''Robin: Thunder''' Robine will use on of four magic spells, depending on how long you charge Thunder. The color of the tome glow indicates which spell will be used.
*'''Shulk: Monado Arts''' Shulk switches between five modes - Jump, Speed, Shield, buster, and Smash - that change his abilities for a short time.
===Stages===
Stage-based tips give notes about stages.
*'''Gerudo Valley''' Sometimes the wooden bridge will break if you stand on it or attack it. It's a flimsy bridge and will break over time, too.
*'''Green Hill Zone''' The object with the blue ball on top is called a Point Marker. A Point Marker will twirl when the ball is hit, dealing damage to anyone too close.
*'''Living Room''' Five kinds of puppies appear in the background. The breed will change randomly. Sometimes a kitten will appear instead!
*'''Spirit Train''' The Armored Train is pointy in front and will try and push the train you are on off the stage. Don't get pushed off during their conflict!
*'''Unova Pokemon League''' Stairs will appear and connect to N's Castle. The stairs will make the stage larger - change up your tactics with this new space!
*'''Yoshi's Island''' Shy Guys sometimes appear from the sky, carrying yummy food. Attack them to make them drop their tasty snacks!
===Items===
Item-based tips document items, Pokémon, and Assist Trophies.
*'''Assist Trophy: Chain Chomp''' If a Chain Chomp falls off the stage, it'll just jump straight back up!
*'''Assist Trophy: Elec Man''' Elec Man will move swiftly across the stage, firing Thunder Beam at the fighters. A hit from this attack will leave a fighter stunned for a time.
*'''Assist Trophy: Phosphora''' Phosphora will teleport around the stage, dodging attacks and shooting lightning at everyone not fortunate enough to have summoned her.
*'''Golden Hammer''' This sometimes turns into a Squeaky Hammer. It doesn't hurt much, but that sound sure is cute, eh?
*'''Pokémon: Eevee''' Eevee will use Take Down on any fighters nearby. If there aren't any, it'll just stand around looking a bit confused.
*'''Pokémon: Goldeen''' No matter how enthusiastically it splashes, nothing ever happens. Not even on those rare instances you find it in a Master Ball.
*'''Pokémon: Moltres''' Moltres slowly rises after appearing. Even barely touching this Legendary Pokémon will send a fighter flying.
*'''Pokémon: Staryu''' Staryu will pursue a target and shoot stars at high speed. For fighters with projectile-absorbing moves, this is like an early birthday present!
*'''Screw Attack''' You can deliver air attacks while using the Screw Attack item. This can lead to powerful combos.

The Tips page in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Tips are short blurbs of information that appear in both versions of Super Smash Bros. 4 and in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. These tips appear in two different locations - their own specialized menu in the Vault, or on the loading screens of the game. Some tips are shared between the two versions of Smash 4, while others are not. A few contain incorrect information due to patches changing the game without updating any of the tips.

If one gets a Milestone at the end of a match, a tip will display while the game is returning to the character select. Otherwise, tips will not display there.

Tips can also be viewed in their own dedicated page within the Vault. In Smash 4, the tips shown are randomized, and can be shuffled by pressing a button. In Ultimate, all tips are sorted into sections based on their topic.
