Brawl]]'' that modifies the amount of [[knockback]] taken by {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}'s Pokémon from certain kinds of attacks. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}} returns after his absence in ''Smash 4'', but the type effectiveness mechanic was completely removed. The removal benefits both Ivysaur and Charizard, but negatively affects Squirtle. | ||

In the | In the {{uv|Pokémon}} series, each Pokémon has one or two {{s|bulbapedia|type}}s, and each attack has one type. Whenever an attack hits a Pokémon, the damage dealt is altered by any weaknesses or resistances caused by the type combination. For example, a Water attack will deal double damage to a Fire or Rock Pokémon, while a Grass attack will deal half damage to a Fire-type, and an Electric attack will have no effect on a Ground-type Pokémon. | ||

If all type interactions were carried over into ''Brawl'', Pokémon would take altered damage from several other attack types; such as [[freezing]] attacks being effective on Ivysaur. ''Brawl'' also only applies any sort of type effectiveness to Pokémon summoned by Pokémon Trainer; other playable Pokémon are not affected in any way. | ||
