Incineroar (ガオガエン, Gaogaen) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was confirmed as a playable character alongside Ken and Piranha Plant on November 1, 2018.

Attributes

• Incineroar mainly utilizes pro-wrestling moves, most notably having powerful throws.
  • Its forward throw is a 720 degree spin throw, similar to Wario's forward throw in Brawl.
  • Its back throw is a suplex, similar to Jigglypuff's back throw.
  • Its up throw is a backbreaker similar to King K. Rool's up throw, but without jumping past the upper blast line.
  • Its down throw is a one-handed slam, similar to other down throws in Ultimate.
• Incineroar will pose after successfully landing certain attacks. However, these poses are merely aesthetic and can be cancelled out of.

Known moveset

• Darkest Lariat - Incineroar's neutral special, as well as its signature move in Pokémon Sun and Moon. Functions similarly to grounded Spinning Kong.

• Revenge - Incineroar's down special. A unique counterattack that instead powers up its next attack.

• A knee strike dash attack, similar to Zero Suit Samus's.
• A standing dropkick forward smash.
• A double axe handle up smash.
• A splash down smash, similar to King K. Rool's.
