Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

An icon used in notice templates. 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.

Aesthetics

  • Change As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Wii Fit Trainer's model features a more subdued color scheme. Her clothing and hair now features simple detailing.
  • Change Wii Fit Trainer's face is clearer and has more detailed eyes, approximating her design to Wii Fit U's trainer. According to Sakurai, this was a requested change from the Wii Fit development team.
  • Change Wii Fit Trainer's body faces the screen more compared to the previous entry; however, her stance is not mirrored.
  • Change Much like other fighters, Wii Fit Trainer is more expressive. In particular, she smiles while taunting and using Header, and appears angry while using smash attacks.

Attributes

  • Buff Like all characters, Wii Fit Trainer's jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
  • Buff Wii Fit Trainer's initial dash and speed are improved.

Ground attacks

  • Buff The first hit of neutral attack, when hitting opponents behind the Wii Fit Trainer, now hits opponents backwards, making successful cross-ups more rewarding.
  • Buff Up tilt now reaches far further upwards, as Wii Fit Trainer's pose is slightly extended and lifted off the ground, and now combos into itself at low percents.
  • Nerf Forward tilt is slightly weaker.

Grabs/throws/other moves

  • Buff Back throw deals more knockback.
  • Nerf Up throw deals far less knockback.

Special moves

  • Change Sun Salutation is now orange in color instead of bright yellow, and no longer has a "lens glare" effect when charging.
  • Buff Sun Salutation's projectile moves faster and stays onscreen longer.
  • Buff Sun Salutation's projectile does more knockback.
  • Buff Deep Breathing's initial speed appears to be faster.
  • Buff Deep Breathing's buff duration now lasts around 10 seconds, longer than previously.
  • Buff Super Hoop travels higher.
  • Change Super Hoop is now a multi-hit attack.
  • Buff Super Hoop requires less mashing to get higher.
  • Buff Header has almost all of its lag decreased.
  • Nerf Wii Fit's silhouettes now have a limited travel distance.
  • Buff Wii Fit now launches a large, slow-moving image at the end of the move. This image has KO potential, increasing the Final Smash's overall reliability.

Role in the World of Light

Wii Fit Trainer was among the fighters that were summoned to fight the army of Master Hands.

Wii Fit Trainer was present when Galeem unleashed its beams of light. She was seen alongside a panicking Duck Hunt and Villager; however, she accepts her fate by jogging on the spot and performing the Tree yoga pose. She was transformed into a spirit alongside the rest of the fighters, excluding Kirby.

Trivia

  • Wii Fit Trainer and Ryu are the only two characters (so far) whose full renders are not on the official website. In this case, the picture stops just below the thighs.
  • Wii Fit Trainer performing the Tree pose may be a reference to the invincibility frames received for half of a second when using Wii Fit Trainer's Up Smash in SSB4.
