Notices
The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

Ivysaur (SSBU)

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

  • Change Much like other characters, Ivysaur always faces the screen regardless of which direction its facing, making its stance mirrored.

Attributes

  • Buff The Stamina mechanic has been removed, eliminating the necessity of switching out Pokémon to restore their power.

Normal Moves

  • Buff Ivysaur's forward tilt reaches further and does far more damage.
  • Buff Ivysaur's down smash has greatly increased reach.
  • Change Ivysaur's dash attack has a new animation, appearing to be a shoulder charge/headbutt rather than a leap attack.

Aerial Moves

  • Change Ivysaur's neutral aerial has a new animation where it points its bulb towards the screen and spins its leaves, hitting 6 times.
  • Change Ivysaur's up aerial causes less downward momentum and no longer causes it to fast fall. This makes it easier to use as a conventional attack, but less safe since Ivysaur no longer pops downwards.

Special Moves

  • Buff Bullet Seed now has a finishing blow.
  • Buff 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.
    • Nerf Spamming Pokémon Change will grant no invincibility frames for a period of time.
