'''Substitute''' ({{ja|みがわり|Migawari}}, ''Scapegoat'') is {{SSB4|Greninja}}'s [[down special]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', functioning as a [[counterattack]]. Greninja strikes a pose and, when attacked, disappears in a puff of smoke with a log or a Substitute doll taking its place; it then reappears with a strong flying kick. This move is functionally similar to Lucario's [[Double Team]] as a counterattack; however, a direction can be held after a successful counter to perform the countering attack in that direction. However, Greninja is not invincible throughout the move, and the attack can be interrupted, such as by a jab infinite.
 
==Customization==
Special Move customization was added in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These are the variations:
{{CustomSet|Greninja|Down|name1=Substitute|desc1=Evade an incoming enemy attack by summoning a substitute, and then counterattack.|name2=Exploding Attack|desc2=Vanish momentarily, and then reappear with a powerful explosion. Not a counterattack.|name3=Substitute Ambush|desc3=Evade an enemy attack with a substitute, and then launch a slow but extra-powerful counter.}}
# '''Substitute''': Default.
# '''Exploding Attack''': Greninja disappears for a brief moment and then reappears with an explosion around itself. This move does not counter.
# '''Substitute Ambush''': This move is similar to the default move, but Greninja disappears for longer and hits harder. A log is spawned instead of a substitute doll if no direction is held.
 
==In Smash Tour==
The Substitute Doll appears as a green trophy item: if a tour item targets the player who used it, the effect will be redirected to another random player. This also applies to exclude the player who used it from the effect of items that target all players.
 
==Trophy information==
[[File:SubstituteDollTrophyWiiU.png|thumb]]
The Substitute Doll trophy is available in {{forwiiu}}, obtained by scoring 90 or more KOs in Solo Endless Smash while playing as Meta Knight.

:''If it looks like a Pokémon and it gets attacked like a Pokémon, it's probably a- Oh, no, it could also be a Substitute Doll. This cute plush figure appears out of nowhere when a Pokémon uses the move Substitute. Is that a smile on its face or a grimace of determination? Only the doll knows, and it's not telling.''

==Origin==
[[File:SubstituteGen6.png|thumb|Substitute being used in Generation VI.]]
{{s|Bulbapedia|Substitute}} is a Normal-type status move in the {{Uv|Pokémon}} games introduced in Generation I. When used, the Pokémon loses 25% of its maximum HP from its current HP and leaves the screen, replaced by a substitute doll. The substitute has its own HP which is equal to the HP the user lost to create the substitute, but derives its type and stats from the currently active Pokémon - the move {{s|Bulbapedia|Baton Pass}} allows for switching Pokémon without losing the substitute. When the Pokémon is attacked by any move that isn't sound-based, the substitute takes damage instead - a substitute loses all of its HP, it fades away. When the Substitute user wants to use another move, the Substitute and Pokémon will temporarily switch places to allow said Pokémon to use the move. If the Pokémon does not have enough HP to make the substitute, the move will fail.
 
While the move is widely available to almost all Pokémon via TM or Move Tutor, Greninja is one of the few Pokémon able to learn this move by leveling up as well.
