Profiles and statistics
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U
Trophies (Both Versions)
| Name | Image | Appears In | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Greninja |  |
3DS Pokémon X and Y (10/2013) | This Water/Dark-type Pokémon is the fully evolved form of Froakie. It's just as fast and dangerous as any other ninja, and the throwing stars it can make out of water can shear metal. In Smash Bros., as well as being a graceful, speedy fighter, it can also use moves like Hydro Pump that let it travel through the air and avoid falling. |
| Greninja (Alt.) |  |
N/A | Greninja's Substitute down special lets you teleport to dodge attacks and then strike back, making it an effective and hard-to-predict way to counterattack. You can also control where you reappear by inputting directions. When you vanish, sometimes you'll be replaced by a log, other times a cuddly toy. |

3DS Pokémon X and Y (10/2013) |
Red indicates exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version. Blue indicates exclusive to the Wii U version.
Trophies (Wii U version)
| Name | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Secret Ninja Attack |  |
In Greninja's Final Smash, it uses its Mat Block move to flip opponents into the air. It then slices them repeatedly in front of the bright moon before smacking them back down to the ground and launching them. The inital Mat Block flip doesn't have much range, but should it hit home, the rest of the attack is unavoidable. |
Palutena's Guidance
- Pit: What is that? Some kind of ninja frog?
- Palutena: That's the Pokémon Greninja. Its strengths are agility and speed. What looks like a scarf is actually its tongue.
- Viridi: As a defensive measure, I suggest rubbing spicy peppers all over yourself.
- Pit: How can Greninja taste anything with its tongue hanging out like that?
- Palutena: It could be one of those rare ninjas that just eats very slowly.
- Pit: What?! But that just makes no sense! ...Anyway, just tell me how to win!
- Palutena: Greninja creates throwing stars out of compressed water and unleashes them at high speed. This attack is called Water Shuriken. If Greninja starts to charge its Water Shuriken, be prepared to reflect it back!
