==Update history==
Incineroar has been notably buffed by game updates. Update 2.0.0 further increased the power of up smash and up throw, and made down aerial [[autocancel]] properly, but most notably increased the recovery distance covered by [[Cross Chop]], heavily improving its notoriously weak recovery at certain angles (although lower angles that are not directly below the edge are still almost impossible to recover from) and especially its vertical recovery. Update 3.1.0 allowed neutral attack's hits to connect more reliably, making the combo harder to whiff.
Incineroar has been significantly buffed by game updates. Update 2.0.0 increased the power of up smash and up throw, and made down aerial [[auto-cancel]] properly. The most notable buff, however, was [[Cross Chop]]'s increased overall travel distance, which heavily improved Incineroar's notoriously weak recovery at certain angles (although lower angles that are not directly below the edge are still almost impossible to recover from) and especially its vertical recovery. As part of a near-universal buff to multi-hit attacks, update 3.1.0 buffed neutral attack by adjusting its hits in order for them to connect more reliably.


Update 6.0.0 gave Incineroar further buffs. Neutral attack was further improved by making the third hit more powerful. Forward aerial gained a new late hit (making the move more similar to {{SSBU|Diddy Kong}}'s forward aerial), while down aerial's meteor sweetspot is now significantly easier to land. Finally, [[Darkest Lariat]]'s clean hit has increased power and range, while [[Revenge]] has more active frames and generally reduced ending lag. As a result of these changes, Incineroar fares better than it initially did during the game's release.
Update 6.0.0 further buffed Incineroar in a number of ways. Neutral attack's third hit became more powerful, thus noticeably improving its reliability in regard to warding off opponents. Forward aerial gained a late hitbox, which makes the move function similarly to {{SSBU|Diddy Kong}}'s forward aerial, while down aerial's meteor smashing hitbox is now significantly easier to land thanks. Finally, [[Darkest Lariat]]'s clean hit has increased power and range, while [[Revenge]] became safer via increases to its active frames and knockback alongside decreased ending lag. As a result of these changes, Incineroar fares better than it initially did during the game's release.
