Full name

Japanese name

Gender

Female

Species

Human

First appearance

WarioWare: Touched! (2004)

Console of origin

Nintendo DS

Ashley is a newcomer fighter and a representative of the Wario series. Ashley and her shape-shifting imp Red first appeared as employees of WarioWare, Inc. in WarioWare: Touched!. Ashley lives in a large haunted mansion, though frequently travels around Diamond City to practice her magic. Red is able to transform into a variety of different objects for her to use, primarily remaining as her wand in Super Smash Bros. Switch.

Movesets[]

Ashley's standard attacks revolve around her using her staff as a melee weapon, and to create clouds of magic around her that deal damage. Some of her attacks, including her special moves, revolve around her using her magic to summon a variety of different objects from WarioWare microgames.

Ashley has a unique aesthetic property, where small sweets and candies fall from Ashley whenever she lands on the ground.

Ashley's Final Smash is Super Wario Bros.. She begins the attack by throwing Red forwards a short distance. Should Red not make contact with an opponent then nothing will happen, otherwise Ashley will begin the attack. She transports those who Red hits away, and summons a giant sprite of Wario to stomp across the stage multiple times, burying them into the ground before knocking them away.

Moveset 1[]

Ashley's neutral special move is known as Cheater!, and is based on the microgame of the same name from WarioWare: Smooth Moves. Ashley summons a large die, which bounces forwards a few times before disappearing. It acts as a projectile, and as such can be reflected back at her.
Chiritorie, both a microgame from WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and a remote-controlled vacuum created by Gunpei Yokoi, is summoned by Ashley for her side special move. As the Chiritorie is a vacuum, she uses it to drag items and fighters towards her, but she can not move while using it.
Ashley's up special move has her jump onto her broom and fly a short distance in an upwards direction diagonally. As she travels, a shield of energy protects her front to deal damage. This special move is known as Broomstick Blast.
One of Ashley's microgames from WarioWare: Smooth Moves is called You're Fired!, and appears as her down special move. Ashley summons a giant cannon, which fires a cannonball forwards after a short period. The cannonball deals massive damage and travels a great distance, though because of this it has long startup time to charge. Additionally, it can be attacked before it fires, and if it sustains enough damage it will explode, dealing damage to those nearby, but also disabling Ashley's ability to use the attack again for a while.

Moveset 2[]

One of Ashley's microgames in WarioWare: Touched! is known as On Strike, which appears as inspiration her Switch neutral special move Strike. After lighting her want on fire, she looses a fireball, which travels forwards a short distance before exploding. It can be absorbed or reflected, as it is an energy-based projectile.
In Game & Wario, there is a Bowling minigame in which Ashley, as well as many of the game's other characters, appear as Bowling Pins. For Ashley's Switch side special move, she summons one of such Bowling Pins, which is much larger in size. Similarly to Pac-Man's fire hydrant from Super Smash Bros. 4, Ashley (or another fighter) can then knock it away with attacks, though while it is standing, it acts as a small shield.
In WarioWare: Touched!, Mike has a microgame, known as Rising Inflation, in which the player must blow into the Nintendo DS' microphone in order to inflate a balloon. In Ashley's Switch up special move, Red transforms into a balloon, which she grabs onto. She rises slowly, though can do so indefinitely, as long as she isn't attacked; if she is, Red will transform into his imp form and the two will fall helpless. If the attack is ended by choice however, the player can perform any of Ashley's standard aerial attacks and will not fall helpless.
One of Ashley's microgames in WarioWare: Smooth Moves is a game called Ringmaster. In that microgame, the player has to complete a beat by shaking bells that they hold in their hands. Though not necessarily the same as that microgame, her Switch down special move sees Ashley pull out a larger version of these bells. She then uses magic to make the bells create a forcefield around her, deflecting any projectiles while it is up.

Alternate Costumes[]

Most of Ashley's alternate costumes reference the colour schemes of her fellow WarioWare, Inc. employees, as they appeared in Game & Wario. All of Mona, Wario, Penny Crygor, Kat, and Ana are referenced, as is 5-Volt. Ashley's last alternate costume is based upon the traditional sailor uniform worn by Japanese schoolgirls.

Baby Mario is a newcomer fighter and a representative of the Yoshi series. Baby Mario first made an appearance in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, where he and the Yoshis of Yoshi's Island went on an adventure to defeat Baby Bowser and rescue Baby Luigi. Since then, Baby Mario has made frequent appearances in the Yoshi series, as well as in a variety of Super Mario spin-off titles. One of the games to primarily feature Baby Mario was Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, where the infant Baby Mario and Baby Luigi teamed up with their adult counterparts to defeat the Shroobs that were invading the Mushroom Kingdom. It is this game on which Baby Mario's moveset is primarily based.
