Ivysaur (SSBU)

Ivysaur (フシギソウ, Fushigisou) is a playable veteran in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He wasn't playable in Super Smash Bros. Wii/3DS, however, it is now playable in this game due to the development team wanting every veteran in the newest game. It's voice by Craig Blair and Tomoko Kawakami in the English and Japanese versions of the game, respectively.
Ivysaur has been given an updated moveset, similarly to Charizard, due to it not being combined as a transforming character. It's keeps all of the special moves it had in Smash Wii U/3DS, including a new Neutral Special, and a new final smash, along with new attacks and animations.
