'''Villager''' (むらびと, ''Murabito'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'' and {{SSBU}}.
+
'''Villager''' is a playable character in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series that represents the [[player]] in the {{SER}}. They first appeared in {{SSB4|3dswiiu}} and reappeared in {{SSBU}}.
  
On June 11, 2013, Nintendo revealed their new ''Super Smash Bros.'' video game for the [[3DS]] and [[Wii U]] at [[Wikipedia:Electronic Entertainment Expo 2013|E3 2013]], showcasing three new characters, one being the player character in the {{SER}} - the "Villager."<ref>[http://www.smashbros.com/us/characters/villager.html Smash Bros. - Villager]</ref>
+
Their formal reveal was during {{wp|Electronic Entertainment Expo 2013|E3 2013}} and the subsequent reveal of {{SSB4|3dswiiu|nolink}}, being one of three characters (alongside [[smashwiki:Mega Man (SSB4)|Mega Man]] and [[smashwiki:Wii Fit Trainer (SSB4)|Wii Fit Trainer]]) showcased during the event.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.smashbros.com/wiiu-3ds/us/characters/villager.html|title={{SSB4|3dswiiu|nolink}}: Villager|site=Official Site - ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''|retrieved=June 18, 2013}}</ref> Villager is classified as [[smashwiki:Fighter number|Fighter #45]] in {{SSBU|short|nolink}}
  
On May 16, 2014, three new character alts were revealed for the Villager, including two female skins.
+
== Appearance ==
 +
[[File:SSB4 Villager Skins.jpg|thumb|Four playable reskins]]
 +
Villager is heavily based on {{CF|short}}{{'}}s player design, with the default male Villager design based from {{CF|short|nolink}} promotional material. Subsequently, the default female Villager is also based from {{CF|short|nolink}} promotional material. The rest of Villager's alternate costumes features different [[hairstyle]]s, eye pupils, and [[clothing]], in light of the {{SER}} emphasis on player customization.
 +
 
 +
== Unlock requirements ==
 +
In {{SSBU|nolink}}, Villager is an [[smashwiki:Unlockable character|unlockable fighter]]; as such they will need to be unlocked by completing either of the following requirements:
 +
*After a VS. match, a [[smashwiki:Mob Smash|Mob Smash]], a [[smashwiki:Spirit Board|Spirit Board]], or after exiting World of Light, a new challenger will appear in a specific order, with a wait time of 10 minutes. Villager is the 6th fighter to be unlocked after [[smashwiki:Inkling (SSBU)|Inkling]].
 +
*To unlock Villager in Classic Mode, the player must complete Classic Mode under [[smashwiki:Pikachu (SSBU)|Pikachu]]'s branch, being the first character battled after clearing as Pikachu.
 +
*To unlock Villager in World of Light, the player comes across a crossroad during the beginning of the mode, which splits into [[smashwiki:Marth (SSBU)|Marth]] (left), [[smashwiki:Sheik (SSBU)|Sheik]] (top) and Villager (right). Regardless of who the player chooses, the other two will have to be unlocked after clearing a boss. Villager will be fought on [[smashwiki:Final Destination (SSBU)|Final Destination]] as a [[File:SpiritTypeGrab.png|20px|link=|alt=]] Grab-type fighter with 2,500 power.
 +
With the exception of the last option, the player would then need to fight Villager on [[Smashville]].
 +
 
 +
== Moveset ==
 +
Villager's moveset is a combination of various mechanics throughout the {{SER|nolink}}, as well as references to other games. Their neutral attack has Villager using boxing gloves to attack their opponents, referencing the NES game [[wikipedia:Punch-Out!|Punch-Out!]]. For each of their tilts, they either use an [[umbrella]], wave a stick, or pull [[weed]]. When they perform a dash attack, they'll drop a potted sapling onto their opponents.
 +
 
 +
For each of their smash attacks, they'll either pull a bowling ball, summon a [[fountain firework]], or dig their opponents with a [[shovel]]. For their aerial attacks, they fire a [[slingshot]] for their backward and forward aerial, and swing one to three turnips for their up and down aerial. Finally, for their grab, they use a [[net]] to catch their opponent.

| [[File:SSBU Neutral B Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's neutral special. Any projectiles in front of Villager are grabbed and pocketed. If pressed again, Villager either grabs the projectile in their hand to be able to throw it for later or immediately throw it. Status items such as Superspicy Curry and recovery items such as Food will immediately be used. In {{SSBU|nolink}}, the Villager is able to see what item they pocketed, and may keep the item in their pocket indefinitely.

 +
| Villager's up special, based on the Nintendo video game [[wikipedia:Balloon Fight|Balloon Fight]], Villager will take to the sky using two [[balloon]]s color-coded to the player's color. It can be used for a certain amount of time before Villager falls from the sky. Other fighters can attack the balloons to prevent Villager from recovering.

 +
| Villager's down special. Villager first plants a [[sapling]], then uses a [[watering can]] to grow the sapling to a [[tree]], and finally the Villager pulls out an [[axe]] to chop down the tree, which when dropped deals damage to other bystanding fighters. The Watering Can can be used to push fighters away from the player, while the Axe can deal significant damage to others.
 +
 
 +
On occasion, the chopped tree may drop a woodchip will drop for additional, but weak damage. The tree may also drop [[fruit]]s for the player to heal damage.
 +

On November 21, 2014, an [[amiibo]] figure for the Villager was released. In addition to being usable in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U'', the amiibo can be scanned into the [[amiibo phone]] in {{HHD}} to unlock a golden villager statue similar to the ones rewarded to players for fully paying off their loans in the original {{PG}} game.

 +
| [[File:SSB4 Neutral B Custom 1 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom neutral special. Not only does it pocket projectiles, as it also hits nearby opponents with a [[smashwiki:Flower|Flower]] effect that causes the opponent to continuously gain damage.
 +
|-
 +
| Pocket Plus
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Neutral B Custom 2 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom neutral special. There is increased range that Villager can grab projectiles from, but the pocketed projectile will deal less damage as a result.
 +
|-
 +
| rowspan=2 | Lloid Rocket
 +
| Liftoff Lloid
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Side B Custom 1 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom side special. Instead of moving forward, the Lloid Rocket instead lifts upwards after a short period of time, granting Villager another vertical recovery.
 +
|-
 +
| Pushy Lloid
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Side B Custom 2 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom side special. The Lloid Rocket is larger and will push fighters around before exploding.
 +
|-
 +
| rowspan=2 | Balloon Trip
 +
| Extreme Balloon Trip
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Up B Custom 1 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom up special. The balloon explodes if burst by any opponents, dealing damage and giving Villager a boost when recovering. However, this move reduces the distance Villager can make vertically and horizontally.
 +
|-
 +
| Balloon High Jump
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Up B Custom 2 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom up special. This move causes Villager to swing upwards at a great distance, but doesn't provide Villager a method to control the movement, thereby making horizontal recovery difficult.
 +
|-
 +
| rowspan=2 | Timber
 +
| Timber Counter
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Down B Custom 1 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom down special. The sapling will cause opponents to trip, and the tree reflects some damage to any opponents that hit the tree. However, the tree, when cut, deals less damage and knockback.
 +
|-
 +
| Super Timber
 +
| [[File:SSB4 Down B Custom 2 Villager.png|200px]]
 +
| Villager's custom down special. Each step gains a boost in its power, but is much longer to complete. The watering can is able to push fighters far away due to the larger sprout. The tree is larger and will deal huge amounts of damage when grown or cut. Finally, the axe provides more damage than the original Timber.

The default male Villager is a boy with brown hair, wearing the No. 1 Shirt. This is the same appearance as the male player on the cover of {{CF}}. Other Villagers, male and female, appear as alternate costumes.
+
Villager's [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]] is [[smashwiki:Dream House|Dream House]], where they first trap an opponent before summoning [[Tom Nook]] and the [[Nooklings]] to the stage. The Villager pays them to build a house quickly, and once that's accomplished, a jingle heard after completing a [[home loan]] in {{NL|short}} plays. Afterwards the house explodes, causing damage to the opponent that Villager had trapped and surrounding fighters. This move would be the inspiration for [[Isabelle]]'s Final Smash in {{SSBU|nolink}}: [[smashwiki:Dream Town Hall|Dream Town Hall]].

The Villagers' [[SmashWiki:Special move|special moves]] are detailed below.

[[File:SSBU Villager Congratulation Screen.png|200px|thumb|The congratulation screen obtained when completing Classic Mode as Villager in {{SSBU|nolink}}.]]
 +
Villager's [[smashwiki:Classic Mode (SSBU)|Classic Mode]] route is named "Mistake to Underestimate", and features fighters considered unorthodox in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, likely referencing Villager originally not making it to {{SSBB}} due to being considered not "suited for battle".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.polygon.com/2013/6/26/4465706/masahiro-sakurai-discusses-mega-man-smash-bros-s-other-new-characters|title=Masahiro Sakurai discusses the reasons for choosing Super Smash Bros.' latest characters|author=Kevin Gifford|date=June 26, 2013|retrieved=December 16, 2022|site=Polygon}}</ref>
  
The [[SmashWiki:Neutral special move|neutral special]], [[SmashWiki:Pocket|Pocket]], makes the Villager reach their hand out, being able to store enemy projectiles or items in their [[pocket]]s. Using the move again afterwards will make them throw the stored projectile, or drop the item, opening up many possible strategies.
+
Completing Classic Mode as Villager will have "Title Theme - {{PG|nolink}}" play during the credit sequence.
  
The [[SmashWiki:Lloid Rocket|Lloid Rocket]] is the [[SmashWiki:Side special move|side special move]]. Using it once will shoot out a [[Gyroid]], most likely [[Lloid]], sending him flying straight, [[SmashWiki:Explosion (effect)|exploding]] upon contact. Holding the button has the Villager mount on Lloid as a method of horizontal [[SmashWiki:Recovery|recovery]].

Artwork of the Villager from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Villager is a playable character in the Super Smash Bros. series that represents the player in the Animal Crossing series. They first appeared in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and reappeared in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Their formal reveal was during E3 2013 and the subsequent reveal of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, being one of three characters (alongside Mega Man and Wii Fit Trainer) showcased during the event.[1] Villager is classified as Fighter #45 in Ultimate

Appearance[edit]

Four playable reskins

Villager is heavily based on City Folk's player design, with the default male Villager design based from City Folk promotional material. Subsequently, the default female Villager is also based from City Folk promotional material. The rest of Villager's alternate costumes features different hairstyles, eye pupils, and clothing, in light of the Animal Crossing series emphasis on player customization.

Unlock requirements[edit]

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Villager is an unlockable fighter; as such they will need to be unlocked by completing either of the following requirements:

  • After a VS. match, a Mob Smash, a Spirit Board, or after exiting World of Light, a new challenger will appear in a specific order, with a wait time of 10 minutes. Villager is the 6th fighter to be unlocked after Inkling.
  • To unlock Villager in Classic Mode, the player must complete Classic Mode under Pikachu's branch, being the first character battled after clearing as Pikachu.
  • To unlock Villager in World of Light, the player comes across a crossroad during the beginning of the mode, which splits into Marth (left), Sheik (top) and Villager (right). Regardless of who the player chooses, the other two will have to be unlocked after clearing a boss. Villager will be fought on Final Destination as a Grab-type fighter with 2,500 power.

With the exception of the last option, the player would then need to fight Villager on Smashville.

Moveset[edit]

Villager's moveset is a combination of various mechanics throughout the Animal Crossing series, as well as references to other games. Their neutral attack has Villager using boxing gloves to attack their opponents, referencing the NES game Punch-Out!. For each of their tilts, they either use an umbrella, wave a stick, or pull weed. When they perform a dash attack, they'll drop a potted sapling onto their opponents.

For each of their smash attacks, they'll either pull a bowling ball, summon a fountain firework, or dig their opponents with a shovel. For their aerial attacks, they fire a slingshot for their backward and forward aerial, and swing one to three turnips for their up and down aerial. Finally, for their grab, they use a net to catch their opponent.

Special moves[edit]

Move Image Description
Pocket SSBU Neutral B Villager.png Villager's neutral special. Any projectiles in front of Villager are grabbed and pocketed. If pressed again, Villager either grabs the projectile in their hand to be able to throw it for later or immediately throw it. Status items such as Superspicy Curry and recovery items such as Food will immediately be used. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Villager is able to see what item they pocketed, and may keep the item in their pocket indefinitely.
Lloid Rocket SSBU Side B Villager.png Villager's side special. They summon a rocket resembling the design of Lloid which will shoot forward to hit any players. Villager can also ride on the rocket as a horizontal recovery move.
Balloon Trip SSBU Up B Villager.png Villager's up special, based on the Nintendo video game Balloon Fight, Villager will take to the sky using two balloons color-coded to the player's color. It can be used for a certain amount of time before Villager falls from the sky. Other fighters can attack the balloons to prevent Villager from recovering.
Timber SSBU Down B Villager Extra.pngSSBU Down B Villager.png Villager's down special. Villager first plants a sapling, then uses a watering can to grow the sapling to a tree, and finally the Villager pulls out an axe to chop down the tree, which when dropped deals damage to other bystanding fighters. The Watering Can can be used to push fighters away from the player, while the Axe can deal significant damage to others.

On occasion, the chopped tree may drop a woodchip will drop for additional, but weak damage. The tree may also drop fruits for the player to heal damage.

The following custom special moves are only in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U:

Default Move Image Description
Pocket Garden SSB4 Neutral B Custom 1 Villager.png Villager's custom neutral special. Not only does it pocket projectiles, as it also hits nearby opponents with a Flower effect that causes the opponent to continuously gain damage.
Pocket Plus SSB4 Neutral B Custom 2 Villager.png Villager's custom neutral special. There is increased range that Villager can grab projectiles from, but the pocketed projectile will deal less damage as a result.
Lloid Rocket Liftoff Lloid SSB4 Side B Custom 1 Villager.png Villager's custom side special. Instead of moving forward, the Lloid Rocket instead lifts upwards after a short period of time, granting Villager another vertical recovery.
Pushy Lloid SSB4 Side B Custom 2 Villager.png Villager's custom side special. The Lloid Rocket is larger and will push fighters around before exploding.
Balloon Trip Extreme Balloon Trip SSB4 Up B Custom 1 Villager.png Villager's custom up special. The balloon explodes if burst by any opponents, dealing damage and giving Villager a boost when recovering. However, this move reduces the distance Villager can make vertically and horizontally.
Balloon High Jump SSB4 Up B Custom 2 Villager.png Villager's custom up special. This move causes Villager to swing upwards at a great distance, but doesn't provide Villager a method to control the movement, thereby making horizontal recovery difficult.
Timber Timber Counter SSB4 Down B Custom 1 Villager.png Villager's custom down special. The sapling will cause opponents to trip, and the tree reflects some damage to any opponents that hit the tree. However, the tree, when cut, deals less damage and knockback.
Super Timber SSB4 Down B Custom 2 Villager.png Villager's custom down special. Each step gains a boost in its power, but is much longer to complete. The watering can is able to push fighters far away due to the larger sprout. The tree is larger and will deal huge amounts of damage when grown or cut. Finally, the axe provides more damage than the original Timber.
Villager's Final Smash as shown in Move List in Ultimate

Villager's Final Smash is Dream House, where they first trap an opponent before summoning Tom Nook and the Nooklings to the stage. The Villager pays them to build a house quickly, and once that's accomplished, a jingle heard after completing a home loan in New Leaf plays. Afterwards the house explodes, causing damage to the opponent that Villager had trapped and surrounding fighters. This move would be the inspiration for Isabelle's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Dream Town Hall.

Classic Mode (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)[edit]

The congratulation screen obtained when completing Classic Mode as Villager in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Villager's Classic Mode route is named "Mistake to Underestimate", and features fighters considered unorthodox in the Super Smash Bros. series, likely referencing Villager originally not making it to Super Smash Bros. Brawl due to being considered not "suited for battle".[2]

Completing Classic Mode as Villager will have "Title Theme - Animal Crossing" play during the credit sequence.

Villager (Super Smash Bros. series)

Villager

Description NTSC-U: An energetic young man from a peaceful town in Animal Crossing, he is eager to make his Smash Bros. debut! His Balloon Trip recovery lets him fly like a character from Balloon Fight. The Villager sets out to answer that age-old question: If a tree falls on the battlefield and foes are beneath it, do they get launched?

PAL: This chipper chap came all the way from his quiet little village to do a bit of aerial sightseeing, take Lloid out for a spin, look after the trees and maybe do some bowling. If you're very lucky, he might even bring along Tom Nook and the Nooklings and throw everyone a party. Gosh, this all sounds like such fun!
Acquisition Clear Classic Mode as Villager.


#108

Villager (Super Smash Bros. series)

Villager (Alt.)

Description NTSC-U: Just a normal girl living a normal life in a normal town—her special moves, however, are anything but. She can pocket items, projectiles, and even beams, and then pull them out at a moment's notice. Her down special lets her plant a tree, water it, and chop it down. If she leaves the tree standing, she can use the axe against foes.

PAL: This girl's special moves are very special indeed. The standard one lets you pocket items, projectiles and even laser beams, then use them by pressing the button again. Her down special plants a tree, which you can water and finally chop down to hurt other fighters. Or you can leave the tree alone and attack with the axe. Up to you.
Acquisition Clear All-Star Mode as Villager.

    • Viridi: Oh look, it's the Villager!
    • Pit: Villager, huh? That's not a very creative name.
    • Viridi: Well, what else do you call someone from a village? Anyway, you've got to respect the Villager. Word has it no one fights fairer than that one.
    • Pit: Why's that?
    • Viridi: Probably because where the Villager's from, there's a mole who goes around punishing cheaters.
    • Pit: Resetti!
    • Palutena: Anyway, the Villager's Lloid Rocket can do some real damage, so try your best to reflect it back.
