Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Guide > Basics > Pokemon

Pokemon come out of Pokeballs when thrown and usually fight alongside whoever released them. Regular Pokeballs can contain any Pokemon, but the much rarer Master Balls can only contain rare and legendary Pokemon, except when they contain a Goldeen. Pokemon that can appear from Master Balls are marked with an asterisk. Some Pokemon will only appear after you've unlocked them by completing challenges.

Abomasnow - Blizzard and Ice Punch: Sucks enemies in with a freezing wind, then punches and freezes them.

Arceus* - Gravity: Meteor smashes airborne foes. Unlucky ones might not find anywhere to land.

Bellossom - Sweet Scent: Puts nearby enemies to sleep.

Chespin - Seed Bomb: Drops a bunch of tiny bombs that explode nearby.

Darkrai* - Dark Void: Puts enemies to sleep and also damages them.

Dedenne - Discharge: Leaps up and unleashes a field of electricity that damages and stuns any enemy inside of it. Launches foes.

Electrode - Explosion: Explodes after a time and does heavy damage to anyone nearby. Can be picked up and thrown just before it explodes.



Eevee - Take Down: Bodyslams nearby enemies, but has limited range. Won't do anything but look adorable if there's nobody around.

Fennekin - Incinerate: Throws fireballs that become pillars of flame when they hit something.
