The Pokémon Trainer is one of the most interesting characters that you may play as, because he is three fighters! Before starting a match, right at the character select screen, you can choose which character you wish to battle with first. When you use Pokémon change, It shall go in this order: Squirtle > Ivysaur> Charizard, then back to Squirtle. All of them share the same damage meter no matter what. When you have a certain Pokémon out for too long, it will start to get tired. This is a result of stamina. You can replenish it by switching out your Pokémon for a while and let it rest.

PLAYING AS P. TRAINER:</u>
Because the Trainer has three Pokémon, he has a total of nine special moves at your command! Use the combination of speed and power from your Pokémon to dominate your opponents. Use Squirtle to give enemies damage, then switch out and use Charizard to deal the final blow! Ivysaur is in the middle of these two, a mixture of speed and power, but not as strong or agile as his other teammates. TIP: You can use the Pokémon Change move to evade a few character’s Final Smashes! Give it try just before Zelda draws the Light Arrow.

PLAYING AGAINST P. TRAINER:</u>
The Pokémon Trainer is tough to conquer in the hands of a master. His Pokémon Change move can change the course of battle by switching from Pokémon to Pokémon, meaning that your strategies have to change with them. However, there are some things to know. One is that when a Pokémon’s stamina has been depleted, his attacks become weaker, and two, the Pokémon Trainer can’t switch out the Pokémon while it’s up in the air.

FINAL SMASH: TRIPLE FINISH
For this move, all three Pokémon will appear on stage at once, executing powerful moves from the Pokémon series. Hydro Pump, SolarBeam, and Fire Blast, this is a move that is going to launch your opponents off the screen. If you are trying to use it, try to get as close as you can to your opponent before you press the special button. The closer the opponent is to the devastating technique, the more damage that it does as well. Since the blast travels only horizontally, try to find safe ground above or blow the Pokémon depending on where they fire it.

The Pokémon Trainer, with three of his best teammates, looks forward to nothing more than being the champion!
