The '''Assist Trophy''' is an item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It calls forth a random character to assist the player who used the item, similar to the [[Poké Ball]] item. This is unique in that the character released is from an actual [[Nintendo]] or third-party series, but is not playable. As a result, it introduces characters who couldn'tdid not make the cut as playable fighters. Almost all characters that come out of the Assist Trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' are invincible; however, in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', many characters can take damage and can even be KO'd (in the latter game, the opponent that defeats them earns a point), although characters that don't appear on the stage itself such as [[#Andross SSBU|Andross]] and [[#Nintendog SSBU|Nintendog]] remain invulnerable to attacks.<ref>Nintendo.

Some Assist Trophy characters in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' are unlockable, and almost every character is invincible; however, in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', all Assist Trophy characters are available from the start, and many characters can take damage and can even be KO'd (in the latter game, the opponent that defeats them earns a point), although characters that do not appear on the stage itself such as [[#Andross SSBU|Andross]] and [[#Nintendog SSBU|Nintendog]] remain invulnerable to attacks.
Players must be on the ground to summon an Assist Trophy's character. If a player is attacked and sent flying after grabbing the Assist Trophy, but before breaking it open, they must land before they can call forth the Assist Trophy's character. Except in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''<ref>Nintendo. (June 12, 2018). [https://youtu.be/8oPhDrn7juE?t=9m20s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Gameplay Pt. 1 - Nintendo Treehouse: Live | E3 2018]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved June 13, 2018.</ref>, only one Assist Trophy can appear at a time, unlike [[Poké Ball]]s.

*A concept similar to Assist Trophies was considered for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', but the idea was scrapped due to development circumstances.<ref>[http://www.sourcegaming.info/2016/01/31/dufl-sources/ The Definitive Unused Fighter List in Smash - Source Translations]. Source Gaming (January 31, 2016). Retrieved January 31, 2016.</ref>
*In the April 2014 Nintendo Direct focused on ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', the Waluigi Assist Trophy is used with the ''Wario'' series icon, instead of the ''Mario'' series icon. This is odd, since Waluigi has never appeared in any ''Wario'' series games. This was later changed, as seen on his ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' trophy.
*In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the figure in the trophy appears to be occasionally blinking.
