Pokémon Trainer

The trick to mastering the Pokémon Trainer is knowing when to switch Pokémon. When you are desperate for a KO, or your chance of being KOd is a little close for comfort, change to Charizard for an Offensive and defensive boost. You lose speed when you do but you get a triple jump as opposed to a double because Squirtle and Ivysaur's third jumps aren't all that reliable to escape from a dangerous situation.

  • When your opponent's damage is low, switch to Squirtle to slowly build up damage.
  • When their damage is getting higher, switch to Ivysaur for a slight damage boost and to relieve Squirtle's exhaustion.
  • When their damage is soaring; switch to Charizard to finish them off.
  • Repeat the process.

Finally, if time is running low and you think you can just squeeze in one last KO, switch to Charizard to try and land a good smash attack. However, Ivysaur's Up Smash attack will finish almost any character off, but it takes a while to execute.

Control selector Select controller:
Wii Remote + Nunchuk, Wii Remote, Classic Controller, GameCube Controller

How to select your starting Pokémon

In Tourney Mode or The Subspace Emissary:
Highlight the Pokémon Trainer on the character-selection screen and tap C button.

In all other game modes:
Select the Pokémon Trainer, and his and all the Pokémon's portraits appear at the bottom of the screen. The Trainer's portrait will be glowing. Click on one of the Pokémon's portrait with A button, and it will start glowing instead of the Trainer's. Also, the Trainer's name will be replaced with the chosen Pokémon's.

If the Trainer himself is selected, the Pokémon you start with will be randomly decided.

Squirtle

Being light, Squirtle is fast, and light. So having 0% at the start of the match means you don't have to worry about being KOd due to his lack of weight. He can also attack from a reasonable distance. His ranged attacks make his combos very easy to execute and if you get the timing right you can deal huge amounts of damage very quickly.

2 button Down dpad+A button Down dpad Down dpad He withdraws into his shell and spins around.

Ivysaur

Ivysaur is a Solid, all-rounder who has moderately fast combos and can also land a few heavy blows when needed.

He is also fast enough to make a quick getaway if things aren't going your way. And bullet Seed is extremely helpful in many occasions.

One combo that really out does all other combos is Getting your opponent with bullet seed and keeping them in the air for a few seconds, then as they're coming back down to Earth you finish them off with your upward smash! Ivysaur's Up Smash attack is a guaranteed one-hit-KO against medium and weak characters. Against heavy characters however; it's not as helpful.

Final Smash

Triple Finish

Triple Finish: When either Charizard, Ivysaur, or Squirtle take the Smash Ball, all three come out to fire heavy damage to the enemy. Charizard fires Fire Blast, Ivysaur fires Solarbeam, and Squirtle Hydro Pump. And, of course, it's Super Effective.
