Attributes

NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.

• Isabelle's moveset shares some similarities to Villager, such as a similar dash attack and the use of Pocket, but many of her moves differ as well, and she is not classified as an Echo Fighter.
  • Isabelle appears to have a completely distinct side special move from Villager, making use of a fishing rod for a long-range command grab instead of the Lloid Rocket.
  • Her down special also appears to act very differently from Timber, now acting as a sort of land mine that drags opponents into the air when triggered.
