'''Alph''' is also playable, as he makes an apperance by taking half of Olimar's alternate costumes. Playing as Alph does not change your moveset or your voice clips.


Olimar is currently ranked 27th out of 58 on the [[tier list]], placing him at the higher end of C tier. This is a significant drop from his top-tier placement in ''Brawl'', where he was ranked 3rd out of 38. As in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Olimar's [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] possess an impressive level of utility. The Pikmin grant him respectable KO and damage racking potentials, as Olimar can use them to deal direct and/or indirect damage via his standard moves or by having the Pikmin latch onto opponents via [[Pikmin Throw]], respectively. The Pikmin also grant him a potent grab game, as they make each of his grabs [[Hitbox|disjointed]] and make his down throw a very reliable combo starter even up to high percents. Lastly, [[Winged Pikmin]] functions as a maneuverable, flight-based recovery move that is vastly superior to the [[Tether recovery|tether-based recovery move]] [[Pikmin Chain]] and even allows Olimar to attack out of it.
