=====Water Shuriken=====
[[File:SSBU Water Shuriken.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Greninja charging its Water Shuriken in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Water Shuriken}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Water Shuriken (move)|Water Shuriken]]''' is Greninja's standard special move, originally appearing as one of Greninja's [[bulbapedia:Signature move|signature moves]] (prior to ''[[bulbapedia:Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]'') that it can learn at levels 36 and 75. Greninja throws a shuriken of water directly ahead. By holding down the button before releasing the Shuriken can be charged, making it larger and more powerful; at its most powerful, the shuriken can push opponents and deal multiple hits.
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', the first custom variation of this move is '''Stagnant Shuriken''' (known as '''Still Water Shuriken''' in PAL regions), in which Greninja throws a shuriken that stays in place to damage foes for multiple hits. The second variation is '''Shifting Shuriken''', which has Greninja throw one of two types of Water Shuriken depending on whether the button is tapped or held. When the button is tapped, a smaller shuriken that travels a short distance and deals greater knockback is thrown; when the button is held, a larger one that travels farther and through opponents is thrown, though it has less knockback.

=====Shadow Sneak=====
[[File:Greninja ShadowSneak SSB4.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|Shadow Sneak in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Shadow Sneak}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Shadow Sneak (move)|Shadow Sneak]]''' is a [[bulbapedia:Ghost (type)|Ghost]]-type move appearing as Greninja's side special move. In the ''Pokémon'' games, Greninja can learn Shadow Sneak at level 23. By holding down the special move button, a shadow is projected that moves forward in the direction it is facing. The shadow always moves a set distance, and Greninja can also move forward or backward slowly when projecting the shadow. After a while Greninja automatically warps to where the shadow is and attacks with a kick; this can also be done by releasing the special attack button. The shadow cannot move on slopes if Greninja is on flat ground.
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the two variations of this move are '''Shadow Strike''' and '''Shadow Dash'''. When using Shadow Strike, the move takes longer to perform, but the shadow can move farther across the ground and the attack is more powerful. When using Shadow Dash, Greninja automatically warps a set distance and attacks; this is faster, but less powerful.
{{br}}
=====Hydro Pump=====
[[File:Hydro Pump Wii U.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Hydro Pump in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Hydro Pump}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Hydro Pump (move)|Hydro Pump]]''' is a powerful, recurring [[bulbapedia:Water (type)|Water]]-type move in the ''Pokémon'' series appearing as Greninja's up special move. When used, Greninja launches itself up into the air with two blasts of water from its palms. The player can launch Greninja in any direction with each blast by angling the control stick or Circle Pad in the appropriate direction. The move can also damage opponents and push them away.
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the first custom variant for this move is '''High-Capacity Pump''', which enables Greninja to fire water pumps that are easier to control, and offer greater distance overall than Hydro Pump, but the move travels slower than normal, and is not able to deal any damage. The second custom variant is '''Single-Shot Pump''', where Greninja launches itself straight up with a single water pump, which covers more vertical distance than Hydro Pump. The move's angle can't be changed, however.
Hydro Pump is also used by other Pokémon in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Hydro Pump is the move used by [[Pokémon#Blastoise|Blastoise]] when it is summoned from a [[Poké Ball]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', [[Squirtle]] uses Hydro Pump in the [[Pokémon Trainer]]'s [[Final Smash]], [[Pokémon Trainer#Triple Finish|Triple Finish]].
=====Substitute=====
[[File:Substitute Wii U.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|Substitute in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Substitute}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Substitute|Substitute]]''' is a [[bulbapedia:Normal (type)|Normal]]-type move recurring throughout the entire ''Pokémon'' series appearing as Greninja's down special move. 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. Afterwards, the substitute remains on the field for a while and can be attacked to knock it around and damage other players.
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', 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.

The move involves summoning a [[wikipedia:tatami|tatami]] on the floor in front of Greninja which he flips up, sending any opponents on it upward.

After the attacks, Greninja launches the opponents downward, causing them to rebound upward off the ground. If their damage is high enough, the opponents are sent past the upper blast line and KO'd.

(3DS) 		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.

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!

amiibo

  • This Water- and 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. When it spins the stars and throws them at high speed, they can split metal in two.
