Pokémon Trainer (ポケモントレーナー, Pokémon Trainer) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Pokémon Trainer can use three interchangeable Pokémon in battle: Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. Brawl
For individual Pokémon changes, see Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard.
Aesthetics
The Pokémon Trainer's model is significantly more detailed than it was in Brawl. His design overall is more proportional to the trainers in the more recent Pokémon titles.- Leaf, the female Pokémon Trainer from FireRed and LeafGreen, appears as an alternate costume.
- The Pokémon Trainer now turns in battle to face the direction of the fight.
- The designs and proportions of Squirtle and Ivysaur now match their appearances in the more recent Pokémon titles. They are much more expressive than they were in Brawl.
- Triple Finish has a different text box and animations, making it identical to how they appear in the Generation VII games.
- The trainer now claps on the results screen.
- On the results screen, the Pokémon Trainer himself is shown and announced as the winner of the fight rather than the Pokémon that was in battle. His face is also used as the stock icon for all three Pokémon.
Attributes
The Stamina mechanic has been removed, eliminating the necessity of switching out Pokémon to restore their power.
Special Moves
- Pokémon Change can now be used in the air and is much quicker. Like in Brawl, it also offers brief invincibility upon switching out, though the quicker switch time allows it to potentially combo into another Pokémon's moves, or function somewhat as an alternative "air dodge". It also allows the user to essentially choose the recovery that suits a situation best.
Spamming Pokémon Change will grant no invincibility frames for a period of time.
Alternate costumes
Only the starting Pokémon is shown on the character selection screen; it can be changed by hovering the cursor over it and selecting it. All of Pokémon Trainer's alternate costumes reference a protagonist from each generation of the Pokémon games.

Trivia
- Now that Charizard has lost Rock Smash, all of the trainer's Pokémon's moves consist of only STAB moves.
- As previous "dual character" pairings have been removed (such as Zelda and Sheik in Melee and Brawl, and Samus and Zero Suit Samus in Brawl), Pokémon Trainer’s ability to switch characters has now become a unique character attribute. Oddly, while both of those pairings consisted of a single individual who would change between alter-egos, the Pokémon Trainer character consists of four separate entities in battle.
- Pokémon Trainer is the first composite character to have been separated in a sequel and later reformed back into a composite character.
