Non-canon appearances[]
Super Smash Bros. series[]
Great Aether shares its English name with Ike's Final Smash in all of his Smash Bros appearances.
For his Final Smash, Ike launches all enemies he hit into the air and Ragnell ignites with fire that is red in Brawl, and blue in all Smash Bros game appearances post-Radiant Dawn. With the enemies in the air, Ike performs a series of kicks and slashes before performing the standard Aether flip-slashes. After, Ike will then drive the enemies into the ground, resulting in a large explosion. Any enemy caught in the explosion will be launched vertically in a slightly diagonal trajectory.

| Description | |||
| Ike's Final Smash--a powered-up version of his signature move, Aether. Ike faces a foe and swings his sword up for a hit, then tosses his sword into the air, performs multiple nasty strikes, and finally unleashes a mighty overhand blow to send his opponent plummeting down. It's a very impressive sight, but if Ike misses with the first upward swing, he can't use the move. | |||
