Squirtle appears as a playable character ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. It is one of {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}'s three Pokémon, alongside {{SSBB|Ivysaur}} and {{SSBB|Charizard}}. Squirtle can be switched into or out of battle via [[Pokémon Change]], which operates similarly to [[Transform]]. Squirtle has three other special moves as well. [[Water Gun]] is a chargeable projectile that pushes opponents away, akin to [[F.L.U.D.D]]. [[Withdraw]] has Squirtle retreat into its shell, giving it super armor in the process, and charge forward. [[Waterfall]] is its recovery move. It performs [[Hydro Pump]] as part of [[Triple Finish]], the Final Smash of Pokémon Trainer.

According to Masahiro Sakurai, Squirtle wasn't originally chosen to be part of the Pokémon Trainer's team, as he had considered adding [[Blastoise]] to the game as a playable character and as part of the Pokémon Trainer's team of Pokémon (alongside Charizard and Ivysaur), but Squirtle was chosen instead after some reconsideration as Sakurai thought that having balance with the sizes and stages of evolution would be more appealing.<ref>https://sourcegaming.info/2016/04/29/duflupdate/</ref>
