Several game mechanics have been introduced into the sequel, like the ability to crawl, the existence of containers with wheels, and the ability of each character to perform an unusually powerful signature move called ''[[Final Smash]]''. The game also built on Melee's one-player modes, with the Adventure Mode being expanded into a complete side-scrolling game called [[The Subspace Emissary]]. This mode features a story told through cutscenes which were co-written by Kazushige Nojima, who is best known as the scenario writer for Final Fantasy VII.

A new character present in the starting lineup is a Pokémon {{pkmn|Trainer}}, whose character design is based on the Generation III {{ga|Red}}. In a first for the series, he only appears in the background and his Pokémon do the actual fighting. His team is comprised of {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}}, which he cycles through in that order with his Down Special move, [[Pokémon Change]]. Squirtle knows {{m|Waterfall}}, {{m|Water Gun}}, and {{m|Withdraw}}; Ivysaur knows {{m|Bullet Seed}}, {{m|Razor Leaf}}, and {{m|Vine Whip}}; and Charizard knows {{m|Flamethrower}}, {{m|Fly}}, and {{m|Rock Smash}}. In addition, Charizard has the ability to glide. The Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash is {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

The other new playable character in the game is {{p|Lucario}}, who was accidently revealed to be a playable character in a commercial released ten days before the game. When browsing through the sticker book, the icons at the bottom of the screen list the playable characters that can use it, so Groudon's sticker naturally showed Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Pokémon Trainer and Lucario. Lucario is unlocked by completing the five target tests, playing 100 VS matches or simply meeting it in the Subspace Emissary. Lucario's Final Smash is {{DL|Final Smash|Aura Storm}}.

The Poké Ball returns as an item, providing the debut of many [[:Category:Generation III Pokémon|Generation III]] and [[:Category:Generation IV Pokémon|Generation IV]] Pokémon to the series. It is joined by the Assist Trophy, which uses the same concept to bring characters from other franchises into the fray.
