Ranking EVERY Assist Trophy and Pokemon in Super Smash Bros Ultimate
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лют 2023
- Getting on to the roster of the super smash bros series is an honor that very few video game characters get to receive. However, getting on the roster isn’t the only way to get into super smash bros ultimate. Assist Trophies and the Pokeballs allow you to summon a character to help you during the fight. But some of these are better and worse than others, so today I thought it would be fun to rank every assist trophy and pokeball pokemon in super smash bros ultimate from the worst to the best!

Who remembers the old days when Mew dropped a CD or a trophy when summoned? 😅
He should’ve dropped a spirit in Ultimate
Yes. Brawlll 😭😭
When a CD got dropped in Brawl, that was the /hypest/ moment.
I still remember whenever Mew dropped EVERYONE hosted a truce to make sure the drop wasn’t forgotten, it didn’t matter if there was a shield break or a spike ready, as soon as route 201 dropped everyone went for it
he should have dropped a spirit (not in training mode). also speaking of pokemon with the wrong functions, Sakuri probably heard that the fish pokemon was trash,and he saw goldeen, so he was like "yeah thats the fish"
The fact the Thwomp doesn't make its "urgh" sound effect when slamming on the ground is a massive missed opportunity. It's such a memorable part of Thwomps that I would rank it even lower because of it.
Little fact, Victini did NOT actually give you a final smash in Smash 4, instead he actually just gives you a stat boost and super armor.
He also 3x your damage
Oh wrong person 4:33
I wish we got dlc assist trophies and Pokemon. They're honestly really fun to see and would help those who don't deserve a full fighter slot make it in the game.
I wish we got an iron golem assist that launches opponents really high.
Joker's assist should be any of the phantom thieves who would aid the summoner in battle using their persona
Creeper could be interesting
@@justdex721 My idea for a Persona Assist Trophy would be Akechi, specifically in his Black Mask attire. He'd only appear from an Assist Trophy if there is at least one other Assist Trophy or a Pokeball Pokemon activated. Upon being summoned, Akech iwould bring out his Persona, Loki, and use Call of Chaos to turn any active Pokeballs/Assist Trophies against the fighter who summoned them.
Dude a Mumbo assist trophy would be so sick
Ideas for Assist Trophies to Go with Each Fighter:
-Jack Bros. (Jack Frost and Pyro Jack): The Jack Brothers do a comedy routine and cause nearby opponents to stumble. This is not only a reference to a Persona 3 Fusion spell, but the Virtual Boy game Jack Bros., the first SMT game to come out in the west. HEE HO!
-Sylvando: A more indepth assist similar to Alucard, he attacks with various Showmanship tricks like Fire Breath and Juggling Balls, as well as some Whip and Knife tricks. As a standout character from the DQXI cast, Sylvando marching in would be a welcome sight.
-*TOP SECRET*: With Goldeneye coming to Switch online, and Agent 007 being the only liscensed character to ever be considered and have a direct impact on Smash, he would be a fitting character to come along with Banjo. He would be similar to Akira and keep his low poly N64 model, use his iconic silenced pistol to hit precise shots on enemies, and occasionally plant a Motion Sensor Bomb that looks like the ones used in Smash Bros Melee, aka the ones literally from Goldneye.
-Tarma Roving: One of the main heroes of Metal Slug, and the one most specialized in driving the titular Slugs. He wreaks havoc on the stage in this mobile tank, switching between the sustained fire of the Vulcan Gun, and big blasts of the Cannon. At the end, he'll dismount the tank and toss it towards an opponent to explode. On rare occasions, he'll spawn in on a Camel, which only has the Vulcan Cannons, but a much more powerful final attack.
-Lysithea: The pint-sized magic powerhouse from the Golden Deer, hiding a tragic past in her looks and power. She attacks with a variety of Dark Reason Magic, creating area denial effects with a Swarm cloud or Dark Spikes, as well as using Light Faith Magic to heal her summoner and drain enemies with Nosferatu (which is Light in Three Houses).
-Headlok: Rather than another ARMs fighter as an assist trophy, I think it'd be more fun to involve the Super Boss of the game. Headlok locks itself on it's summoner's head, greatly weighing them down, but giving them great knockback resistance and auto-attacking enemies in it's vicinity, allowing you to attack along with it.
-Pig: The ever iconic Pig from Minecraft. He doesn't do anything, just wander around the stage aimlessly. At most, he can act as a literal meat shield, dropping a healing Porkchop on death. If he falls to a fiery attack, it's a cooked porkchop and gives more health back. If hit by an Electrical Attack though, he turns in to a Zombie Pigman, who will ruthlessly chase down and attack whoever zapped them.
-Cactuar: One of the most iconic recurring enemies of the Final Fantasy series. They scramble around the stage randomly, and will stop suddenly to cast "Thousand Needles", which can greatly damage an enemy unlucky enough to be in the vicinity of flurry of thorns immediately surrounding it.
-Immovable Gonzalez: The recurring "Level 90 Gorilla Enemy that chases you in an early game area" of the Xenoblade series. This massive ape spawns in sleeping, and will continue doing so as long as an opponent doesn't enter it's vicinity. If it is awoken though, it will go on a rampage, and try it's best to absolutely obliterate it's target before disappearing. When awoken, "Those Who Stand In Our Path" starts to play.
-The Prince of All Cosmos: Not a Tekken rep, but another Namco rep from a colorful and beloved series (who also cameos alongside Heihachi in Pac-Man's taunt). Like in the game, he'll roll his Katamari around, knocking back anyone in his path. If he rolls over any items (including explosives), he'll absorb them in to his Katamari and it will greatly increase in size. Eventually when it's big enough, it will even snag opponents who will be helpless for a few moments and take damage as they roll around in the Katamari.
-Donald and Goofy: I already included James Bond, so screw it. Donald provides some light healing and some magic, while Goofy dashes ahead of you and tries to keep the attention of your opponents. Their appearances may change depending on the stage they appear on.
-Mario Stages: Donald resembles a Cataquack and Goofy a Hammer Bro.
-Zelda Stages: Donald appears as a Rito and Goofy a Goron.
-Star Fox (and other Sci-Fi stages): Donald and Goofy take on an appearance similar to the Star Fox style.
-Fire Emblem (and other general Fantasy Stages): Donald resembles a Black Mage, and Goofy Onion Knight.
-Pokemon (and other general Modern stages): Donald resembles a Psyduck and Goofy an Arcanine.
-Retro Stages: They appear as SNES/Genesis style 16-bit Sprites.
I really appreciate how you mentioned that anyone can still get into Smash without being part of the roster. It really gives hope for more potential of diversifying the representation in the next Smash game
Add dry bones. Plz smash
Oooof
Nintendo most likely won’t make another console and thus another smash game for a while seeing as the switch basically prints money for them
@@alimbis so did the WII but they still had to develop to keep up with the other consoles going up a generation. So I recon there’s five solid more years
Drybonesforsmash
Imagine if they added assist trophies for the DLC characters, like a Creeper assist trophy for Steve as an example
Or the main three lords from Three Houses sharing an assist slot with a random chance to get one of them
@@crazycap2945 That’d also be pretty cool
@@crazycap2945 I think something like that could work for the Phantom Thieves aswell (who'd be Joker's assist obvs)
Imo it's so lame how the never added DLC items. Imagine a Dragon Quest item or a Final Fantasy assist trophy. There's plenty of DLC mii outfits but items would've been so cool
@@pigeonleader Ender pearls would have been such a cool DLC item
Just want to add something about Vince that you missed
Vince has another ability regarding his paintings. Any opponent covered by them actually takes 3x more damage than normal. Landing a Falcon Punch on an opponent, which usually does around 30%, will hit them with a whopping 90%, but only when they're under a painting, and that's on top of the chip damage!
Bravo Vince
Yo, is this a Persona 5 reference? That would be cool if true.
Next, you should rank every Smash character’s entrance before every battle…
THATS A PRETTY [[bigshot]] IDEA
YESYESYES! Palutena's is BOSS!
I thought doing that
@@balls_gamingwhat
@@balls_gamingwhy?
It would have been so cool if Eevee evolved upon being summoned based on what eeveelution type the fighter is closest to. For example Mario > Fire, Kirby > Fairy, Olimar > Grass...
Of course, it might cause some issues for a few characters like Marth, Steve and ROB who are not close to any of the 8 available types.
I was thinking something similar. Eevee evolves into the typing of the nearest attack. E.g. Pk freeze into Glaceon, Pikmin into Leafeon, Mario fire ball into Flareon etc.
@@GermanCricket13 the pk boys would go crazy with that
Rob could be electric, Marth could be dark, Steve could be grass
@@GumbytheMii392 How does Marth being dark work?
@@dogboyton3166 Pawniard is dark steel, actually Marth could be steel
3:04 Everyone comments that this should've been Magikarp, but keeps ignoring the reason why it's Goldeen instead. It's actually based on a short running joke in the first few episodes of the pokemon anime where Misty would release Goldeen on land, where it's completely useless, as a distraction or something.
A neat little detail that I like is that you pair what franchise the assist trophy is from with characters from the same franchise
15:19 It's Sukapon from Joy Mech Fight, which I heavily recommand for anyone that hasn't played it yet (a.k.a all of you 🗿).
Btw Victini and Xerneas having those abilities are references to their signature moves, so I think their smash appearances fit them quitte well.
SUKAPON DEEZ NUTS LMAO GOTTEM
@@ballisticboo7808 so it was just a trap all along...
@enzovalenti9605 you should've seen this coming
Also, how does victini represent v create or searing shot in smash. I know that xernias does represent geomancy great, but I think victini more so represents its ability victory star. But even that is a stretch. So in conclusion, I think victini in smash is solely based on the fact that it's said to bring victory to anyone who uses it.
@@Nintendofan1389 OK true Victini's depiction in smash doesn't represent its signature attack, I should have been more specific when tacling the issue.
That being said, yeah I was thinking about Victini's design and pokedex entry when writing my original comment. And I still think that smash's version of this pokemon is mostly ok because it at least tried to do something by adapting the lore behind Victini.
But I guess you would have prefered something like a V-shaped fire attack ?
Video idea: What if every series in Smash had it's own dedicated boss?
And as an additionaly rule, it has to be a boss that could be used against all of the series representatives, so Bowser and Ganon couldn't be used, due to them already being playable characters
Maybe like a hero and villain boss?
For example cloud could have safer sephiroth and sephiroth could fight a smash original Omni cloud
*its
Waterwraith
What in the world would R.O.B's boss be?
@@rusticdebris8021 that is admitedly a tough question
Personally I love the way Xerneas and Victini work, yes they just give you a mechanic that's already in the game and I would like them more if they gave a unique buff, but considering victini is a pokemon that gives victory and xerneas is one that gives life, I find the buffs they give perfectly fitting for their unique aspects as pokemon instead of just generically doing damage or an affect to the opponent.
You should do the “Missing Assist Trophy and Pokemon of Smash Ultimate” next!
I think it would be cool if there was a way to get some series overlap between the assist trophies and pokeballs. Basically, i’m saying we should get a Pokémon assist trophy, and I think I have a good idea for one: Professor Oak. He’d disable one input on your opponent and say “now is not the time to use that” until he despawns.
15:18 That's the little known character Ligma
YES! I was hoping for this video! I always am interested to see your smash opinions, as you usually give fair reasoning for it.
One thing I’d like to mention about the Chef Kawasaki assist trophy is that it references Kirby’s final smash from Brawl
Great video, I love your variety in your videos nowadays!
Great video! It was nice seeing where all the assist trophies and pokeballs would be on your list of worst to best! I agree with many but overall, it's nice that there are still opportunities for characters to help out in a fight even if they didn't make the cut.
Your videos are so binge-watchable, I love them.
I always get very excited when a new ranking tier list comes out :D
That Chain Chomp edit at 10:07 was beautiful 😂
This video makes me wish that we got DLC assist trophies. It would've been so cool to any Dragon Quest monsters as assist trophies, A Sans assist, Geese Howard, Or an Iron Golem basically being blocky Black Knight just launching characters with one strike. What if we had a Minecraft Villager assist that's basically Isabelle when she was in Smash 4 as an assist but using the trading mechanic to give players a good or a bad item. He would basically be the Hero of assist trophies where he could be the best or the worst. I have a lot of ideas for DLC assist trophies (Mainly for Dragon Quest and Minecraft). Great video once again Odyssey!!!
YESS!! I was waiting for this
Man I didn’t even notice these cute easter eggs until I watched the video, great job!
39’s name is Sukapon. He’s from the Japan-only game Joy Mech Fight.
SUKAPON DEEZ NUTS
@@adamou20501 You’re really immature.
@@GoldenSandslash15 It's fitting, deserves a smirk. The mature would give this stuff a pass and not grimace in the face of it.
@GoldenSandslash15 its the literal reason why he "forgot" the name you knew what you were getting into
@@GoldenSandslash15 that's the joke, he didn't say the name because he wanted people to say sukapon knowing that we would reply deez nuts
Maybe I'm insane or play on big stages too often, but I feel like the moon completely misses my opponent 9 times out of 10.
A cool thing about the Metal Gear Assist Trophy is that he'll talk to Snake if he's in the fight.
I wish there were more interactions like Grey Fox talking to Snake. Right now I think the only other example is that the stage boss Metal Face has specific insults towards Shulk.
How come there’s a thousand of these types of videos and yet yours is still the only I enjoy watching
Rest in peace to the assist trophies who didn’t make it into ultimate. Magnus, you are sorely missed.
This video better have Super Mario in it!
It does do not worry!!
The content is getting better and better
CPU roy is straight up fighting ghosts out here 😭 17:48
Just like real Roy players 🔥🔥🔥
That Twinkle Tackle bit was **Chef's Kiss** 😩👌
Imagine ranking every spirit battle
I could see this happening if it’s only master spirits
the spirit battle with that tiny mr game at watch at 300% would definitely be the #1 spot
Odyssey Uploads: 😮
It's a tier list: 😃
He made it different from anything else: 😎
Ah, yes, my favorite assist trophy
*Wily Castle*
Loved the use of the Sun + Moon soundtrack. Most underrated Pokémon soundtrack.
And also underrated generation.
The smash remixes are all REALLY good
@@Odyssey_Central yeah. Smash Remixes are rarely worse than the originals. The only one that jumps to mind is the Smash Ultimate version of Duck Hunt is much worse than the Smash 4 one.
As alpharad said, its not that it is easy to avoid some pokemons, its the fact that you have to avoid them.
I loved killing assist trophies
Its super satisfying to see their blue screen of death
My favorite assist trophy to fight is burrowing snagret because it’s death animation is cool
I think we all can agree that the moon would make the best fighter if an assist trophy got promoted to fighter
No joke! There are times where I wish that instead of getting new fighters in during SSBU, we got updates to the Pokéballs and assist trophies. Even if it’s just DLC to have more assists in fighting, it still would’ve been nice. Because at this point of technology, it is possible to do it and there is a market reason a to do it, but it isn’t done.
I think it would've been neat if the DLC characters came with assist trophies, like steve would get a creeper and so on
Why not both
@@Odyssey_Centrallike a walking Bomber
You should rank each game style in Mario maker 2, taking everything in consideration like music, visuals, power ups and other differences
13:10 I like how there is ‘strike the earth’ from shovel knight playing while shovel knight is being shown
15:24 Ahhh come on that’s Sukapon from Joy Mecha Fight; debuting in one of the earliest fighting games of the Famicon!
SUKAPON DEEZ NUTS
Oh my god
How dare you forget the name of the absolutely iconic character that is Sukapon from Joy Mech Fight?!!!
More seriously, you guys should play Joy Mech Fight if you can. It's an amazing traditional fighting game that is also very accessible for new players to that genre.
Sukapon deez nuts
I think the reason why Victini just straight up gives you the smash powerup is because Victini is the victory Pokémon.
Bro said Burrowing SnaRget
Anyone painted on by Vince also takes triple damage from any attack until the painting disappears
Maybe in the next rankings video you could use symbols next to the raking number to show what what your ranking. (In this example a symbol showing weather it was a pokemon or assist trophy for people like me who couldn't always tell what was what.) Kind of like what you did in the moon ranking video with the different types of moons.
ah you're right I totally should've done that for a mixed video like this, I'll keep that in mind next time!
Fun fact about Vincent - he actually does damage over time and makes opponents take more damage from attacks
just saying that I would also love to see you cover the assist trophys and Pokemon in earlier smash games as well
I wanna see a rank video on the victory sequence of the characters. My favorite is Lucas cause he picks at the ground and says “huh?”😂
My favorite Assist Trophy is the Burrowing Snagret. I remember being charmed by his design and Brawl and even moreso in Smash 4. As for his attacks, the Burrowing Snagret is extremely effective at chasing down enemies and leading into quick KOs. Plus, he didn't have the issue of having backlash for not being playable. Other great assists are Rathalos, Knuckle Joe, Riki, and Tiki.
As for Poké Ball Pokémon, I like Bewear the most. She actively hunts down fighters and delivers a mighty uppercut. Granted, Bewear can be easier to avoid on gigantic stages, but on Battlefield/Omega forms, she is brutal. Certainly my favorite Gen 7 Pokémon. I also dig Solgaleo, Lunala, Keldeo, Arceus, and Scizor.
Good rankings.
Fun fact: I might be tripping but I’m pretty sure that in earlier Pokémon games ditto kept his original color even when transformed
just wanted to mention quickly that every pokemon is designed to use a specific move, so eevee couldn't really reference the other eeveelutions since it doesn't learn any of their moves. the most it could do would be extreme evoboost, but that would have just done the same thing as xerneas, so it makes sense that they went with swift.
8:29 wasn’t expecting that 😂
With Palkia I one time saw players stand up and tilt their head upside down to keep playing. This is funny to do and the opponents probably won't do it, so you'll be at an advantage.
Number 18 is by far one of the absolute most frustrating KO-able assists because I can't count how many times the sword beam (reference to one of the instakill moves in his boss fight in X5) just slaughters your health. The fire uppercut like thing is from X4 and is also a pain. The spin in the air can be many moves, mostly X5's Grizzly slash/Crescent Grizzly move and the triple slash is the normal way for attacking.
Ironic how Wily capsule is Worse 🤣 mega man fans should know why it's so ironic.
Good list but a few details were missed, such as how the Chain Chomp can be released by hitting the peg keeping it chained down, or how Lyn will launch a strong counterattack if someone tries to hit her before she finishes her charge.
You should do a ranking of all the items in smash that'll be really cool
you showed that Pokemon scene to show how awesome it looked but honestly it looked incredibly silly with how little the model moved. Like at all
19:50 I think the player takes damage because the last person who looked at what mimikyu actually looks like died from shock
1 downside about metroid though is that if he catches you off stage that you can cancelling special fall from the low knockback, kind of allowing you to chain a few up-special as far as remember
that goofy nintendog ruined my life man
loved the video :D
Good video
Can you do Ranking EVERY Assist Trophies to Fighters by Number Ranking.
Fans are very curious of what they look like in Number Rankings from unlikely to likely.
The Sukapon spirit burned his name into my memory. It might be the most annoying legendary spirit.
the only spirit on my old switch that i never beat :/
Sukapon deez nuts
I do have one defense as far as the zone of effect assists like chespin are concerned, which is that preventing the opponent from going to a part of the stage can be very strong. (Which, I guess doesn't help much as far as fun is concerned.
Depends on the character. Snake or ness using it against falcon or Mac might have fun
I was just about to ask you to make this
Another neat fact about pyukumuku is if you footstool off of it it'll automatically activate it's attack!
3:51 Not like it matters, but if any player other than the original summoner attacks Dr. Wright, he'll send out an undodgeable counterattack that's stronger than the initial one.
always a great day when odyssey central uploads!
(also when dry bones gets added waluigi better join them with wiggler, wiggler is my personal fav character, not cause of MK i just think its so cute, so #Wigglerforsmash6 #Drybonesforsmash6 #Waluigiforsmash6 #freddyfazbearforsmash6
you forgot to mention that the duration on how long mimikyu keeps an opponent trapped is dependent on how much damage they suffered before getting grabbed. also you got the kill percent wrong, its actually 90%, it used to be 100%.
Pink guy that throws his body is called Sukapon
SUKAPON DEEZ NUTS
Hey Odyssey could you play smash against fans and put them in a tier list ?
7:32 SNAG-RET!
I’m dying from the twinkle tackle 😂
Bewear is by far the scariest assist trophy. Whenever one of my brothers sends him out when we're playing, I almost always scream. That uppercut is crazy.
Pokémon
Best video ever
Imaginar if one day Waluigi go in smash and just said “wahhhh suck it Sakuri!”
Video idea: ranking every pixel in smash bros
"Making it into smash roster is one of the biggest honor a character can receive, the roster is filed with icons special to people all around the world"
Ah yes, the plant from Mario that moves up and down is more special than *Waluigi*
Imagine Being an Assist Trophy
Imagine being cut because of not enough of time to add you and getting replaced by your boyfriend’s greatest rival.
@@Superemie401 what character are you referring to?
@@blocks4857 Krystal.
9:35 love seeing ma boy Clyde in this list! Clyde for smash!!!
Zero and Alucard really, and I mean, REALLY should've been playable characters. I know Alucard was planned, but it's sad he wasn't eventually promoted as a DLC fighter. Both are absolutely perfect picks for Smash characters, with huge movepools that fit in just right.
That would have perfect man
Okay, I know I'm late on this one but did anybody else expect him to do a foxy jumpscare on Klaptrap's part
The pink ones name with his flowing body parts is Sukapon
Fun fact: Chef Kawasaki's ability is a reference to Kirby's Final Smash from Brawl
Neat af
26:24 OH MY GOD I FORGOT ABOUT THAT ONE. Oh now I miss it :(
You're right about Victini, should just make you win instead
Rest in peace Phosphora, she's one of my favorite assist trophies to get
Fletchling is the best PokeBall Pokemon with our house rules. If you are damaged by the bird that's a stock loss, also any spectators are encouraged to yell "BIRD!!" for the duration.
Good video but i think that you should have said that you think Assist Trophies that could have been characters hurts the Assist Trophy at the beginning of the video instead of at the end of it.
I didn’t really mention it since it didn’t effect any of the rankings. I moreso just said it to show why the moon is even more in first place
22:44 “I’m afraid we’re gonna have to use… MATH!!”
Didn't know you could kill the metroids by freezing them in smash or that Niki could draw a smash ball. Weird to just know now but cool.
Fun fact: doctah wah wee's moves are a reference to mega man sevens final boss.
Doctah wah wee is a nick name for dr.wily that mega man 8 players use
