Pokémon Trainer is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was confirmed on June 12th, 2018.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Aesthetics
- Triple Finish has a different text box and animations.
Attributes
- The Stamina mechanic has been removed, eliminating the necessity of switching out Pokémon to restore their power.
Normal Moves
- Ivysaur's forward tilt reaches further and does far more damage.
- Ivysaur's down smash has greatly increased reach.
- Ivysaur's neutral aerial has a new animation where it points its bulb towards the screen and spins its leaves, hitting 6 times.
Special Moves
- Bullet Seed now has a finishing blow.
- 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.
- After taking any hitstun-inducing hit, Pokémon Change can only be used if the Pokémon lands first, preventing exploiting of the move's intangibility. Similarly, spamming Pokémon Change will grant no invincibility frames for a period of time.
