Have you trained a Pokémon Trainer amiibo before? In case you missed our guide, here’s a quick recap. Even though Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard each have their own base AI, they pull from the same set of training data.

Luckily, we’ve got you covered with an in-depth guide that’ll help you find a workaround! If you’re ready to go, then let’s jump right into today’s training!

How to train a Mega Man amiibo in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Mega Man is another fighter who’s had an interesting history in the world of competitive amiibo training. To start, he was the single worst Figure Player in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. His AI couldn’t do anything properly: it used projectiles at close range, refused to camp, and often failed to score KOs. Mega Man struggles with similar issues in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but he’s actually considered mid-tier in this game by virtue of his melee attacks alone! If you’d like to learn more about Mega Man’s metagame history, feel free to check his corresponding wiki page. Otherwise, let’s jump right into today’s training!

Eventually, a group of dedicated trainers figured out the missing piece of the puzzle: his three-hit jab. It looks like history repeats itself, because the same is true for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate! If you’d like to learn more about Pac-Man’s metagame history, you can do so over at his corresponding wiki page. Otherwise, let’s jump right into today’s training!

How to train a Mii Swordfighter amiibo in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

The Mii Fighters are rather daunting to train — but for a completely different reason than other characters! Once you assign a Mii to your Mii Swordfighter amiibo, you can’t change it without resetting all of its training. This means you’ve got to be completely sure your Figure Player’s Mii is exactly to your liking before you train it. If you’d like to learn more about Mii Swordfighter’s metagame history before we begin, feel free to read its corresponding wiki page. Otherwise, let’s jump right into today’s training!

How to train a Wario amiibo in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Back in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, almost every heavyweight fighter translated into a powerful Figure Player. For the most part, the same is true in this game — so it makes sense, then, that Wario’s position is rather favorable on our official amiibo tier list. He’s quick, has a decent recovery, and is – of course – very strong. If you’d like to learn more about Wario’s metagame history, feel free to read his corresponding wiki page. Otherwise, let’s jump right into today’s training!
