- For the term referring to a game player's secondary character, see Alternate character.
Substitute is Greninja's Down Special Move in Super Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U. When he is about to be hit, Greninja replaces himself with a substitute which takes the damage for him, as he appears behind it and rushes for the attacking player, damaging them. This move is similar to Lucario's Double Team.
Trivia
- In the Pokemon series, Greninja took damage whenever it used Substitute; it is unknown if that affects it in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U.
