Scyther appears ready to rumble! Not as a playable character, though. This bug burst from a Pokéball to serve as a spiritual successor to Hitmonlee and Scizor's roles from Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee respectively. However, their code of conduct has been outmoded. Leaping twice around the stage just doesn't cut it these days.

To compete with the fancy shmancy and new-fangled Assist Trophies, Scyther has decided to take the Knuckle Joe approach to things: by serving as an impromptu combatant on the arena! This bug's got one bad 'tude, and he'll hunt down your enemies without mercy. They shouldn't worry too much though, because while his blades will hurt, Scyther doesn't have any kill moves. Instead he slashes up the competition, bringing their damage on high and letting somebody else make the finishing blow.
Additional Note: As of this point, all combat-type assists can be damaged, battled, and KOed.
