What Pokémon Trainer says as he releases the next Pokémon is dependent on how much damage the opponent has taken. From 0%-99%, he will say "Go, _______!". From 100%-149%, he will say "Hang on, _______!". From 150% and above, he will say "Just a little more, _______!" This references what trainers say when sending out Pokémon in the Pokémon series games. | What Pokémon Trainer says as he releases the next Pokémon is dependent on how much damage the opponent has taken.

If one of his Pokémon gets a certain item ([[Super Mushroom]], [[Metal Box]], etc.), the Pokémon Trainer would be unaffected by it. Contrary to some claims, this character is not Ash Ketchum from the Pokémon anime series, and, though Ash was loosely based on Red, they are distinct characters. [[Masahiro Sakurai]] has stated that only characters originating from video games are eligible for inclusion in ''Brawl''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s roster. However, he is nearly identical in appearance to Red, the main character of ''Pokémon'' (''[[Pokémon Red|Red]]'', ''[[Pokémon Blue|Blue]]'', ''Yellow'', ''LeafGreen'', ''FireRed''). For the various voice clips that are used, a new English voice actor from the anime, Michele Knotz (who voices Nurse Joy, May, and other characters) was given the role. Sarah Natochenny, the voice actor of Ash, is '''not''' in this game, despite popular belief. | If one of his Pokémon gets a certain item ([[Super Mushroom]], [[Metal Box]], etc.), the Pokémon Trainer would be unaffected by it.

Various accommodations are made for Pokémon Trainer in several stages. In moving stages like [[Halberd]] and [[Delfino Plaza]], Pokémon Trainer only appears on the stationary sections. On the Halberd, if the cannon is fired in his direction, he won't be affected. On the Bridge of Eldin, Pokémon Trainer always stays to the left, so that he never gets hit by the bomb that destroys the middle of the bridge. In Norfair, Pokémon Trainer stands on a special platform in the background that flies away when the huge lava wave is coming. He will move above the pit in the [[Yoshi's Island]] Stage when his Pokémon is on the opposite side of the pit (for example, if Pokémon Trainer is on the right and his Pokémon is on the left). Pokémon Trainer will appear on a similar background platform for any custom stage or Melee stage. | Various accommodations are made for Pokémon Trainer in several stages.

Pokémon Trainer is currently ranked 29th in the tier list. This is partly due to players being forced to master all three Pokémon playstyles. The stamina problem forces a PT player to make crucial decisions about whether to try and switch safely or to just keep piling on the damage and hope for a KO, with the problem being most apparent when fighting as Squirtle. The Pokémon also all suffer recovery issues, ranging from poor to relatively predictable (from bad to manageable: Ivysaur, Squirtle, Charizard). However, his ability to switch between different characters at will has given him decent matchups, allowing him to reach F tier. In the Japanese tier list, Charizard, Ivysaur, Squirtle, and Trainer each have their own spot, despite each Pokémon having to be swapped out due to the aforementioned stamina problem. | Pokémon Trainer is currently ranked 29th in the tier list.
