Aqua (アクア, Aqua) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Like with the Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon and Pyra/Mythra, Aqua shares her character slot with Terra and Ventus as a tag-team fighter. Along with Terra and Ventus as well as Sora, Roxas and Riku, she was announced as a surprise DLC fighter as part of the KINGDOM HEARTS Bonus Fighters Pass on April 1, 2021. Aqua is classified as Fighter #92.

Megumi Toyoguchi and Willa Holland reprise their roles as Aqua in Japanese and English, respectively, with new voice clips.

Known information

  • Aqua is tied to Terra and Ventus as a three-in-one fighter, similar to Pokémon Trainer. Each member of the trio can swap out quickly using their shared down special move, Transporter.
  • Aqua has been described as the "all-rounder" of the trio similar to Ivysaur's role within Pokémon Trainer's team, being a tall semi-lightweight who specializes in zoning and control via magical techniques and with moderately fast attacks and movement speed.

Moveset

  • Aqua's double jump animation is based on her Doubleflight ability from Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep.
  • Aqua's roll is based on her Cartwheel ability from her various appearances.
  • Jab - Aqua's basic three-hit combo from her various appearances.
  • Magic Hour - Aqua's down aerial, where she will teleport downward vertically some distance and fall while crashing her Keyblade onto the ground.
  • Barrier Surge - Aqua's dash attack, a move where Aqua careens forward surrounded by a reflective barrier.
  • Spellweaver - Aqua's neutral special move based on her Command Style of the same name where she will spin around surrounded by a magical force field. The force field draws in foes and then expels them for decent knockback.
  • Teleport Spike - Aqua's side special move based on the finish command from Birth by Sleep, where she will teleport behind the opponent and launch a small magical orb at them using her Keyblade.
  • Lightbloom - Aqua's up special move based on her ultimate Shotlock from her various Kingdom Hearts appearances, where she will spin in the air while launching volleys of energy at the foe.
  • Teleporter - Aqua's down special move, shared with Terra and Ventus, where she will manifest a teleporter similar to those seen in the Mirage Arena and quickly warp out of battle, with Ventus immediately warping in.
  • Trinity Limit - Aqua's shared Final Smash with Terra and Ventus, where she will raise her Keyblade and generate a magical circle under her feet. If the move connects, Terra and Ventus will enter the battle, and all three will raise their Keyblades and generate a large orb of light above their heads that causes immense damage and knockback.
