Isaac (ロビン, Robin) is the main protagonist of Golden Sun for the Game Boy Advance. His appearance as an unlockable Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl is his (as well as any Golden Sun character's) first appearance in 3D, the first time his voice was heard (being, again, the first appearance of any Golden Sun character's voice as well) and was the only appearance of Golden Sun in any official format between 2002 and 2010.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
As an Assist Trophy
When Isaac appears, he uses what is normally a utility effect, a Psynergy spell called "Move", as his in-game battle effect, which creates an energy field in the shape of a giant hand three times in total that pushes foes away and off the stage. If the player is hit by one of the hands, it is difficult to escape. Isaac will turn to face enemies during this attack should they attempt to evade. However, like in the Golden Sun series, the move does no damage.
This move was present in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age for the Game Boy Advance, where it was the first Psynergy move that Isaac, Garet, and Felix could learn. It allowed the Adepts to push movable objects, usually to solve a puzzle in a dungeon.
To unlock Isaac, one must play 200 matches in Brawl, or related modes.
Unlike many other Smash Bros. Assist Trophies, his attacks can pierce invincibility stars, since they just "move" the opponent and don't do damage, so even invincible opponents could be knocked off the stage.
Trophy description
A strong-willed Psynergy adept of the bloodline of an ancient race thought to have been lost with the downfall of civilization. He can manipulate earth-based forces and is also a highly skilled swordsman. He sets out to protect a lighthouse that can release the sealed powers of alchemy. In Smash Bros., he uses "Move" Psynergy, which creates an energy field that pushes foes away.
: Origin
Isaac originally appeared in Golden Sun, an RPG-style game for the GBA. The game focused on Isaac and friends' quest to retrieve the four elemental stars and stop the return of Alchemy, following their theft by the games' two villains, Saturos and Menardi. Isaac is the main playable character in the game, and each of the playable characters is capable of wielding Psynergy, a form of mind power. Isaac is a Venus Adept, meaning he can manipulate Earth and plants. As the game progresses, Isaac and friends gain access to a wider variety of Psynergy, which are needed to progress through the game.
Isaac returns in the game's sequel, Golden Sun: The Lost Age, but not as the main playable character, and instead as a character who joins the players party after a certain point in the game. He also briefly appears in the most recent game in the series, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, this time as the father of the main character, Matthew.
The Psynergy that Isaac uses in Brawl, "Move", is a Utility Psynergy - that is, it cannot be used in battle, and it is acquired virtually at the start of the game. Its use in Brawl is somewhat different than its use in the games, where it is simply just used to move distant obstacles, in order to achieve a wide variety of different ends.

Trivia
- If the "Move" Psynergy makes contact with a Smash Ball, the sound of the Smash Ball being hit will play, along with its visual effects, despite the lack of damage from the "Move" Psynergy.
- Strangely for Super Smash Bros 3DS Isaac isn't a Assist Trophy despite Golden Sun being a handheld game and there is no normal trophy of him found. This has led rumors of him being DLC for the game. People have also found in the code a picture of the series symbol for Golden Sun.
