Pokémon Trainer (Super Smash Bros.): Difference between revisions

Ivyaur is perhaps the most difficult of the 3 Pokémon to play as. In many ways, Ivysaur is the balance between the heavyweight, hard-hitting {{p|Charizard}} and the lightweight, agile {{p|Squirtle}}. Despite this, it lacks the heavy hitting moves of Charizard and the fast rate of attack from Squirtle. It is very good at racking up damage percentages with its attacks, but has a very hard time KOing its opponent; its strongest finishing moves are too laggy to pose a threat. Ivysaur's worst problem though, is its atrocious aerial game and recovery. Despite these flaws, Ivysaur can be used to irritate its foes and rack up high damage percentages with its attacks (especially Bullet Seed). It also has a decent grab and throw game, its forward and down throws can leave the opponent vulnerable to combos for the other 2 Pokémon to finish it off. It uses mostly [[physical]] {{type|Grass}} attacks, such as {{m|Bullet Seed}}, a rapid upward hitting move, and {{m|Vine Whip}}, a tether recovery move where vines are shot out to latch onto edges of a stage and pull Ivysaur up; but like all tether recoveries, it can be edgehogged and prevent Ivysaur from grabbing onto the ledge; sending it to its doom. It also uses the projectile attack {{m|Razor Leaf}}. It uses {{m|SolarBeam}} in the Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

* All 3 of Squirtle's Special Moves (not counting Hydro Pump, in the final smash) begin with the letter "W".

* Intrestingly, even though Squirtle is a Water-type Pokémon with the ability to swim, it can still drown when swimming in water for too long.
