An Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

The Assist Trophy (or assist trophy) is an item in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It calls forth a random character to assist the player who used the item, similar to the Poké Ball item. This is unique in that the character released is from an actual Nintendo or third-party series, but is not playable. As a result, it introduces characters who did not make the cut as playable fighters.

Some Assist Trophy characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl are unlockable, and almost every character is invincible; however, in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, all Assist Trophy characters are available from the start, and many characters can take damage and can even be KO'd (in the latter game, the opponent that defeats them earns a point), although characters that do not appear on the stage itself such as Andross and Nintendog remain invulnerable to attacks.

Players must be on the ground to summon an Assist Trophy's character. If a player is attacked and sent flying after grabbing the Assist Trophy, but before breaking it open, they must land before they can call forth the Assist Trophy's character. Only one Assist Trophy can appear at a time, unlike Poké Balls, except in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

List of Assist Trophy characters[edit]

Shaded cells indicate the Assist Trophy can be defeated. An asterisk (*) in the Super Smash Bros. Brawl column indicates the Assist Trophy is unlockable. A double asterisk (**) in columns for later installments indicates the Assist Trophy instead appears as a playable character.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Akira The Super Smash Bros. series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. X mark.svg X mark.svg Check mark.svg Akira Yuki is one of the main characters of the Virtua Fighter series. A master of the Hakkyoku-ken (Eight-Way Fist) style, his appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is patterned after the original game in the series, with a low polygon count giving him a "blocky" look.

When summoned, Akira will run toward an opponent and attack them with moves like a forward palm strike and an elbow strike, as well as his signature moves like the Tetsuzanko (a body check) and the Renkantai (a double kick). He can also auto-guard. Before leaving the battlefield, he salutes the opponent and says his catch phrase, 「十年早いんだよ!」 (Jū'nen hayai'n da yo!, "You are ten years too early!")

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Alucard Castlevania Symbol.png X mark.svg X mark.svg Check mark.svg Alucard is the son of Dracula who appears from the Castlevania series. A dhampir (child of a vampire and a normal human), Alucard opposes his father's crusade against humanity, having been taught by his mother, in her dying breath, not to hold grudges against humans. Having helped vampire hunter Trevor Belmont defeat Dracula once, Alucard awakens again, sensing a strange evil energy coming from his father's abode, and uncovers a plot to resurrect him.

Alucard's appearance and moves take inspiration from his role as the protagonist in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night: he attacks using the Crissaegrim (also known as the Valmanway), transforms into a bat, and uses Mist Form to evade opponents' attacks.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Andross The Star Fox series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Check mark.svg Check mark.svg Check mark.svg Andross, the main villain from the Star Fox series appears from the Assist Trophy, and, floating in the background of a stage, inhales and spits forth a flurry of harmful polygons that damage characters.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Arcade Bunny The Super Smash Bros. series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. X mark.svg X mark.svg Check mark.svg The Arcade Bunny is the host of the Nintendo 3DS game Nintendo Badge Arcade. After he is summoned, the crane from the original game appears at the top and begins to move left and right, dropping down periodically in an attempt to drag an opponent up, while the Arcade Bunny stands in the background.

Check mark.svg* X mark.svg X mark.svg Barbara originates from the Japan-only game, Daigasso! Band Brothers (whose sequel was released in Europe as Jam with the Band).

To unlock her in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the player must collect 25 hidden songs.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Black Knight The Fire Emblem series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. X mark.svg X mark.svg Check mark.svg The Black Knight is a recurring antagonist in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.

When summoned, the Black Knight will walk slowly across the stage, striking any fighter that crosses his path. His attacks have a high launching potential, and he is immune to flinching when attacked.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Bomberman The Super Smash Bros. series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. X mark.svg X mark.svg Check mark.svg The main protagonist of the eponymous Bomberman series, Bomberman lays bombs on the stage, which explode in a cross formation and may cause chain reactions, similar to the original games.

Defeating and inhaling him will give Kirby the Cook ability.

When summoned, Chef Kawasaki extends his ladle and traps anyone it hits into a boiling pot, then begins to stir and season the pot for a brief period of time. After that, multiple food items and any opponents inside the pot are launched out. Chef Kawasaki then produces another plate of food. The attack functions similar to Kirby's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

X mark.svg Check mark.svg Check mark.svg The Color TV-Game 15 was the second model in Nintendo's Japan-only line of Color TV-Game dedicated consoles, some of the earliest video game products released by the company.

The two paddles proceed to hit the ball back and forth, the ball damaging any opponents in its path that it hits. Players can also attack the ball to send it in a different direction. A score is kept above, though it does not impact the match; clapping can also be heard each time a point is scored. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the background changes color when the paddles appear.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Dark Samus The Metroid series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. X mark.svg Check mark.svg X mark.svg** Dark Samus is a recurring antagonist in the Metroid Prime series. She attacks using a variety of Phazon-based abilities, such as tentacles that sprout from the ground, a burst of shots from her Arm Cannon, or spherical missiles that home in on enemies.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Devil The Super Smash Bros. series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Check mark.svg Check mark.svg Check mark.svg The Devil is the main antagonist of the Nintendo Entertainment System game, Devil World, released only in Japan and Europe.

When summoned, the Devil will first appear as a bat and fly to the top of the screen. Once at the top, the Devil assumes his true form and begins pointing in one of the cardinal directions, causing the camera, which is otherwise fixed in place during this time, to move in the direction he points. As a result of this, the blast zones of the stages change continuously until the Devil disappears.

In the series, he is represented by a polygonal version of his own face, similar to Andross.

When summoned, Dr. Kawashima immediately disappears, but causes numbers to fly across the screen. If two numbers collide, they add into a larger number, and if the two numbers equal 10 or greater, they explode. The explosion is bigger and lasts longer (similar to that of a Smart Bomb) if the numbers equal exactly 10. Players can also attack the numbers to knock them away. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the white, gridded background from the Brain Age games replaces the stage's background when Dr. Kawashima is summoned.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Dr. Wright The Super Smash Bros. series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Check mark.svg Check mark.svg Check mark.svg Dr. Wright, the player's assistant from the SNES version of SimCity, appears and attacks opponents by using his pointer stick to pull a skyscraper from the ground, sending them flying upwards. The attack is executed right in front of Dr. Wright and the vertical range is very high, so fighters should run away immediately after he is released. There is a one-in-ten chance that Dr. Wright will summon a particularly large skyscraper for even more range and power.
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Elec Man The Mega Man series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. X mark.svg Check mark.svg X mark.svg Elec Man is a Robot Master from the original Mega Man series, and one of the six bosses of the first Mega Man.

He attacks primarily through his sword and by throwing projectile diamonds when jumping. He constantly moves around while attacking and, if he falls off the stage, teleports to the edge. If enough damage is dealt to him, he will stagger before disappearing; otherwise, he will simply go away after a period of time.

Brawl, the player must unlock Snake.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the player unlocks him after having played 200 matches in the Brawl mode or its relatives. When he appears, Isaac summons a giant hand (a utility ability called Move) and sends it to the end of the stage, pushing any opponents along with it. He does this three times before disappearing. The hand does not do any direct damage; its only purpose is to send opponents off of the stage. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, however, the hand is also able to attack opponents by slamming into the ground with the Pound move. Isaac can also use Lift to summon a pair of hands to grab an opponent and carry them off-screen.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Isabelle The Animal Crossing series emblem, from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U.

As an Assist Trophy, he prepares and launches the big bottle rocket pack: a set of five bottle rockets, which shoot into the air, homing in on enemies in unpredictable trajectories. There will always be four small bottle rockets followed by a big bottle rocket at the end, but there is a one-in-five chance that he will summon a second wave of rockets before disappearing.

Trophy information[edit]

Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

Image Name Description
BrawlTrophy139.png Assist Trophy A capsule that contains characters who will help you out in battle. You won't know who's in the capsule until you open it. It may be someone everyone knows or someone who's a bit of a mystery. The majority of these characters are invulnerable, so attacking them is not an option. You know what that means, right? RUN!
BrawlTrophy303.png Andross A brilliant scientist formerly employed by the Cornerian Army. He took his research too far, and the disastrous results labeled him a Level 1 offender, resulting in this banishment to the nearby Planet Venom. After building a base and declaring himself emperor, he swore he would rule the Lylat system. Thanks to Team Star Fox's heroism, the madman has yet to achieve this.
BrawlTrophy308.png Barbara The manager of the music store GB Music in Waruwaru Town--her real name is Barbara the Bat. She leads the player through the game, showing her arrogant attitude as she cracks the whip at others but pampers herself. Her little brother's name is Tingtin the Bat. By the way, the "GB" in the name of her store stands for "Great Barbara," NOT "Game Boy."
BrawlTrophy296.png Devil A devil who wields serious power in Devil World. In the game, the devil floats above the maze and commands by pointing. When it gives orders, its cyclopean minions turn cranks that scroll the maze in different directions. When Tamagon, your character in the game, places all the stage's books into a hole, the devil turns into a bat and flies away. It's quite striking, no?
BrawlTrophy298.png Dr. Wright A hardworking assistant to the city mayor. He has distinctive hair and spectacles and a dapper moustache. Dr. Wright has a comprehensive knowledge of city government and is happy to give you tips to keep your city running smoothly. In the game, he tracks your city's status and gives you gifts. There was a character reminiscent of him in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.
BrawlTrophy295.png Excitebikes High-performance motocross bikes that handle massive jumps with ease. Using turbo on these beauties gives a speed boost but also causes the engine's internal temperature to rise. Overuse turbo, and the bikes overheat and shut down. The engines can be cooled by running over certain marks on the track. Excitebikes cap off every race with an undeniably awesome wheelie.
BrawlTrophy309.png Gray Fox An enigmatic soldier with great physical and combat skills. Calling himself "Deepthroat" and equipped with an enhanced environmental camouflage suit, he dedicated his life to fighting Snake. In a twist of fate, Gray Fox ends up protecting his sworn rival from Metal Gear REX. Long ago, Gray Fox fought Snake in Zanzibarland.
BrawlTrophy165.png Hammer Bro A character who throws a seemingly endless stream of hammers. Hammer Bros. have also been known to jump every so often. Since they throw their hammers in a high arc, if you manage to get in close, the hammers can't hit you. Unlike Koopas and Buzzy Beetles, Hammer Bros. don't reduce to their shells when jumped on. As the name suggests, most Hammer Bros. are found in pairs.
BrawlTrophy307.png Helirin A unique helicopter that flies with long, slowly rotating wings. If the wings strike walls or obstacles, the Helirin takes damage and loses hearts.

BrawlTrophy311.png Isaac A strong-willed Psynergy adept of the bloodline of an ancient race thought to have been lost with the downfall of civilization.

He receives a telepathic message from Paula saying that she and Ness have been captured, and he sets out to rescue them. He's Ness's age but has the knowledge of an established scientist.

BrawlTrophy313.png Jill A young girl who takes over the leadership of a band of righteous bandits known as the Red Dozers from her injured father.

She has an intense dislike of studying, however.
BrawlTrophy301.png Kat & Ana Twin female ninjas who attend Diamond City Kindergarten. Kat, the older of the two, has pink hair, while the younger Ana has orange hair.

Kat loves cats, and Ana is attracted to flowers.
BrawlTrophy291.png Knuckle Joe A martial artist known for amazing attacks like the Vulcan Jab. With his bandana, he looks and fights the part of a Muay Thai boxer.

His other famous techniques are the Smash Punch and Rising Break.
BrawlTrophy164.png Lakitu & Spinies A particularly stubborn breed of Koopa. Lakitus chase Mario aboard clouds and attack by throwing Spiny Eggs down from above.

Little Mac Little Mac A lightweight scrapper from the Bronx. After meeting with a former boxing great named Doc Louis who fell from glory, Mac takes Doc on as his coach, and together the pair try for the championship belt in the WVBA.

The Galactic Federation commissions Samus to eliminate them, but Space Pirates try to harness their power. One of the few ways Samus can kill Metroids is by shooting them with the Ice Beam and then shattering them with missiles. The Metroid's cry is chilling and indescribable.
BrawlTrophy289.png Mr. Resetti A character who normally appears from underground to lecture the player. However, he is not always underground--in Animal Crossing: Wild World, he can be found sipping coffee at the Roost if you go at a certain time on a certain day.

BrawlTrophy293.png Mr. Resetti (2) A mole wearing a hard hat who'll show up when you restart your game without having saved. He pops up and lets you know in no uncertain terms the importance of saving your game. The problem is, his speeches are entertaining enough to warrant breaking the rules at least once. In Animal Crossing, his brother Don appears too. He's the polar opposite of his sibling.
BrawlTrophy294.png Nintendogs A puppy for you to train on your Nintendo DS. They come in a wide variety of breeds, colors, coat styles, and personalities.

Trivia[edit]

  • A concept similar to Assist Trophies was considered for Super Smash Bros. Melee, but the idea was scrapped due to development circumstances.[3]
  • In the April 2014 Nintendo Direct focused on Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, the Waluigi Assist Trophy is used with the Wario series icon, instead of the Super Mario franchise icon. This is odd, since Waluigi has never appeared in any Wario series games. This was later changed, as seen on his Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS trophy.
  • In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the figure in the trophy appears to be occasionally blinking.
  • In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, not all Assist Trophies appear in every stage, mostly due to elements of the stage itself. Examples include Alucard not appearing in Wii Fit Studio (due to vampires not having reflections), and the Moon not appearing in Great Bay (due to it appearing in the background).
