I haven't seen anyone else mention this, but this is significant for a lot of matchups, so I figured it needs its own thread.
As the title suggests, hydrants can activate counters if the opponent just touches it. I've seen this occur with Greninja and Shulk, and tested it with Lucina. I assume it also applies to Lucario, Marth, Ike, Palutena and Peach.
Here's a video showing it happening. You can test it yourself.
And here (at 1:48) you can see my opponent's Greninja intentionally touching it to trigger Substitute's kick. (he was the one who initially pointed this oddity out to me)
And yes, this also happens with the On-Fire Hydrant.
