Substitute

Substitute is a Normal-type move recurring throughout the entire Pokémon series appearing as Greninja's down special move in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. When used, Greninja braces itself and when attacked disappears, replacing itself with a substitute while counterattacking the opponent. The direction the attack comes from can be influenced by holding a direction on the control stick. The substitute that appears can either be a log or the doll that appears when the move is used in the main Pokémon games. Afterward, the substitute remains on the field for a while and can be attacked to knock it around and damage other players.

The first custom variant for this move is Exploding Attack; while it cannot be used as a counter, Greninja instead automatically disappears and reappears in an explosion. The second is Substitute Ambush, which has Greninja counterattack with a slower but more powerful attack.
