Seven Things You Might Have Missed About Greninja’s Smash Reveal

The Nintendo Direct we watched yesterday, which focused on Smash Bros? It contained more information than what Nintendo actually talked about. But if you pay close enough attention, you can catch some cool stuff hidden in the footage.

Take Greninja, for example. He might not be Mewtwo, but he’s still pretty interesting! GameXplain proves this by going through Greninja’s footage with with a fine-toothed comb, ultimately making a video that does neat things like:

Breaking down how he’s a fast, mobile character with some good high priority moves and a curious recovery

A closer look at his teleportation and counter moves

Discussing his substitute move and whether or not he’ll sacrifice health to use it, like in Pokemon games

Analyzing his normal attacks

How he not only dual wields katanas, he also uses shurikens—a move that may charge

The special moves that aren’t based on Pokemon moves, but rather specially made for Smash

The special Elite Four stages

And more. Well-worth a watch if you’re curious about this new fighter.
