Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) | comment |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a Mascot/Platform Fighter developed by Game Arts and Sora Ltd. and published by Nintendo for the Wii in 2008. It's the third installment in the Super Smash Bros. series, containing 39 fighters, 41 stages, 500+ trophies to collect and 250+ pieces of music.In addition to expanding on the features first introduced in Melee, Brawl is notable in the series' history for multiple important inclusions. First, it shakes up the status quo with the introduction of non-Nintendo characters as Guest Fighters, with Konami's Solid Snake and Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog joining the roster. Second, is the introduction of Final Smashes, powerful and flashy attacks that do major damage if they are successfully executed. Finally, it is the first Smash game to support online multiplayer, as well as a Level Editor to make extra fighting stages and an extensive Achievement System. All these novelties would be carried over to the game's follow-ups.Brawl also has an expansive Adventure Mode called The Subspace Emissary where you must fight against the mysterious forces of Subspace. The mode is similar to Melee's Adventure Mode in that it involves traversing levels with minor platforming, but it is much more expansive and action-based. This mode also has a narrative that is told via silent cutscenes.The game's website can be found here. | |

Cherry Tapping | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_10b6b5f7 | comment |
Cherry Tapping: In addition to Luigi's kick taunt, Snake's taunt (he has three, but they all consist of him getting under a box in different poses) can damage foes when he throws the cardboard box away at the end of the taunt. Sonic's spring jump does 3% damage if you manage to hit your opponent with the falling spring and knocks them a very short distance away. However, it still gives them enough momentum that if they collide with the underside of the stage, they'll most likely get KO'd by it. And in relation to gimping recoveries, the footstool jump. It does no damage and can can only be used when right on top of the opponent, but can send an opponent down to the bottom of the screen, or at least enough to keep from recovering. Using Samus's Screw Attack or Pit's Propeller Blade attack is a more effective strategy against the Master Hand than more powerful or damaging moves. They only do about 12 points of damage at a time, but they prevent the Hand from being able to hit back. Kirby can swallow an opponent and jump off the side of the map, and when the opponent struggles out of it Kirby can jump on their head finishing them off. This can be a suicide technique. | |

Mission Control Is Off Its Meds: The off-his-meds Colonel scene from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty is referenced in this game, appearing when Snake uses his Smash taunt against Luigi. While the AI isn't as nonsensical as before, you can still tell it's the AI when he gets to the "La Li Lu Le Lo" part. | |

Darker and Edgier: With more detailed and more realistic graphics, a surprisingly dramatic story mode, and more violent attacks, this game is definitely qualified for this trope compared to the previous entries in the series. | |

Power Creep, Power Seep | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_14dfb81 | comment |
Power Creep, Power Seep: Solid Snake. He can't even jump during gameplay in his own series, but here he can easily jump three times his height and fly with the assistance of a summoned Cypher (his enemies in his games), perform elegant suplexes, and is so flexible he can bend his spine almost all the way back. Also, the swimming/drowning mechanics the game introduced are nearly the same for everyone, even for characters who can't swim (Sonic and Charizard), characters who can't drown (Squirtle in Brawl and Greninja in Wii U/3DS), or characters who dissolve in water (the Inklings in Ultimate). Varia Samus and Zero Suit Samus highlight this as well. In their original appearance, Zero Suit Samus was part of a No-Gear Level, lacking any offensive capabilities whatsoever outside of a temporary stun. In Smash Bros, she's significantly faster and more agile than her armored counterpart (in the original, she was, if anything, slower), and actually places higher on most character tiers. | |

Man Bites Man | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_1592e954 | comment |
Man Bites Man: Wario has his Chomp special, which does Exactly What It Says on the Tin to anyone who touches his open mouth. His head inexplicably doubles in size while using this move and as a result, his victims are in his mouth up to the torso while he does the biting. It's the only time he's seen using this tactic in his history, but it's not terribly out of place, considering how bizarre his fighting style is. Kirby can copy this ability, making him possible to do the same move as well, which is strange since he doesn't have any teeth. | |

Temporary Platform | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_1664fe9f | comment |
Temporary Platform: One of the features of the stage builder are these — and odds are, if you know someone who has built stages there, they've built at least one heavily featuring them. They regenerate as well, which results in problems both ways — the platform might be missing when you're scrambling to get back up, and you also might have to deal with a platform appearing right where you were trying to go to save yourself. | |

Villain Team-Up | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_169d22e6 | comment |
Villain Team-Up: A handful of Co-Op Event Matches have this: Event 1: Two Trouble Kings has Mario (and Kirby when playing the co-op version) being pit against Bowser and King Dedede, both antagonistic kings of their series and the main rivals to the respective playable fighters. Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides has Link and Samus fighting pure black versions of themselves, referencing Dark Link and Dark Samus, respectively. Co-Op Event 8: All MINE! is a rare example of the villains being the playable characters, with Wario and Bowser (both Mario antagonists) working together to battle the Mario Bros. in order to collect 2,000 coins. Co-Op Event 19: Shadow of Andross is another unique example. Here, Fox and Falco fight off against Wolf, but accompanying him is Andross, an Assist Trophy, who remains for the entirety of the match. Co-Op Event 14: The Dark Guardians is a subversion. While both playable characters (Ganondorf and Wolf) are villains, they are instead fighting against rampaging monsters (Represented by Donkey Kong and Charizard) rather than forces of good. Event 40: The Final Battle is a successor to the first Event Match, in which Bowser and Dedede are now accompanied by Ganondorf. Co-Op Event 20: The Final Battle for Two has the two players face off against every playable antagonist in the game: Wario, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Wolf, Ganondorf, and Bowser. | |

The Worf Effect: How does the game display how powerful the Big Bad is? By having him defeat and enslave Master Hand, the creator of the World of Trophies, of course. And this is before the main plot even begins. When the playable characters confront him, he trophifies virtually the entire cast in a single blow with his Off Waves. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
No Subspace rifts are established as existing prior to the start of the story, which brings up some questions concerning the content that's All There in the Manual; Tabuu's army would have no way of getting out of Subspace to attack the Halberd, Tabuu himself would have no way to bring Master Hand into Subspace to kickstart the plot, and King Dedede would be incapable of learning about Tabuu's Off Waves, considering he's in a different world entirely. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_19028da | comment |
Eternal Engine: Among the playable stages, there's Frigate Orpheon from Metroid Prime, specifically the area where the Parasite Queen is contained; from time to time, the stage abruptly spins 180 degrees, so fighters have to keep an eye on where they're standing to avoid accidentally falling into a pit. There's also Shadow Moses Island, based on the iconic Metal Gear Solid setting of the same name where searchlights can often spot the fighters, and where sometimes a Metal Gear robot appears to break part of the stage's background. | |

Lord British Postulate: The supposedly invincible Wario-Man, as well as characters using a Starman, can both be KO'd in the conventional fashion by chucking a Team Healer item at them while they're at a high enough percentage and not on your team. On a similar note, while Giga Bowser is completely Immune to Flinching, he can still be star KO'd if he's hit while he's off the top of the screen. | |

The game adds Gooey Bombs to the item repertoire. These clingy suckers stick to either the terrain or a player after being thrown, exploding on their own after a few seconds. This bomb can be passed to someone else, including the one that launched it by running into them before it explodes, making for a silly-looking game of Grenade Tag. | |

Androcles' Lion: Pikachu plays this role with Samus. In the story mode Subspace Emissary. After she rescues him from a generator, he accompanies her through the enemy base, helping her get her suit back, and eventually saving her ass when Ridley tries to smear her across the wall. | |

Ominous Latin Chanting | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_1fdaf8ff | comment |
Ominous Latin Chanting: The main battle theme for the Final Destination stage features this chanting, along with face-melting electric guitar solos. Interestingly, it's a remix of the main theme for the game, where the Latin Chanting isn't ominous at all; in fact, it's more lyrics than chanting. When you beat the Subspace Emissary mode, the theme plays again with a very loose translation of the lyrics displayed... and they're a thematic description of the events of the game (granted, a very loose and non-specific description). It's worth noting, though, that said piece was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, the famed Final Fantasy composer responsible for the aforementioned "One-Winged Angel" and "Liberi Fatali". Man just loves his ominous chanting. The "Fire Emblem Theme" music on the Fire Emblem stage also has Latin lyrics, and although it's much more upbeat, it's no less awesome. Translation here; apparently, it's the same choral group responsible for the main theme. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_202ce3e0 | comment |
Eat the Bomb: Kirby, King Dedede, and Wario can eat explosive items from this game onward, though that will hurt them (And in Wario's case, anyone who's standing too close to him). It doesn't cause any knockback to the devouring fighter, though, and the damage is usually less than being in the blast of the explosive itself. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Wario is just a greedy anti-hero in his series, who only cares about getting rich or otherwise splurging on himself. Here, he is a full-blown villain who takes sadistic glee in turning people into trophies on behalf of the Subspace Army, and also terrorizes Lucas after turning Ness into a trophy, complete with an Evil Laugh. In the Pokémon games, some of Rayquaza's feats include stopping the world-ending rampage of two legendary monsters and preventing a meteor from destroying the planet. Here, it attacks a defenseless Diddy for no reason other than because the monkey dared to approach the lake where it was resting. | |

Chekhov's Gun: We're treated to a scene early on involving a cardboard box on an enemy ship that inches forward once. Later, Solid Snake pops out, and gives one of the only spoken lines in the entire mode. There's King Dedede going around, seemingly a villain, "trophy-fying" heroes and taking them, seemingly on the same villainous side as Wario. Until he robs him. Then it seems that Dedede just wants to have his own private collection of trophies of the heroes, complete with dressing them up with odd badges, screwing around with the mission at hand (and something Dedede, at his most annoying, would plausibly have done). Until, way at the end it turns out the badges Dedede put on them were time release resurrectors, and it was Dedede's plan all along to, in case the heroes failed, save them with his own backup squad. | |

Last Lousy Point: There's trophies for beating every mode in the game except The Subspace Emissary on the highest difficulty setting (which you can't just use a Golden Hammer to forcibly gain). To get the Stickers trophy, you have to obtain at least one of every sticker in the game. There are over six hundred of them and no way to influence which one you get. | |

Steel Ear Drums: Explosions and other loud noises are commonplace and nobody reacts to anything but the hitboxes. In one aversion, however, Snake will duck and cover his ears if one of his grenades explodes sufficiently close to him - though he won't react the same way to his forward smash attack, which involves shooting an RPG almost directly at his feet. | |

Both colors are available in Brawl, his red and white colors were the main pallete in all versions; but after that, versions outside Japan make the grey color his main pallete. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_264e3bd0 | comment |
Sticky Bomb: The game adds Gooey Bombs to the item repertoire. These clingy suckers stick to either the terrain or a player after being thrown, exploding on their own after a few seconds. This bomb can be passed to someone else, including the one that launched it by running into them before it explodes, making for a silly-looking game of Grenade Tag. Snake's down special, C4, can stick to opponents if timed just right. These are hard to see and remote activated, meaning unsuspecting opponents may find themselves suddenly flying in the air after Snake triggers it. Like Gooey Bombs, these can be passed between players; giving the C4 back to Snake and watching him blow himself up can be surprisingly cathartic. | |

Same Content, Different Rating: Like Melee, the game is rated T by the ESRB deapite having the same slapstick, bloodless violence the series is known for; and unlike Melee, the game also saw its rating increase in the United Kingdom (from 3+ to 12+). There are some elements that may have justified the rating, such as Wario's farts and Snake's suggestive dialogues with his teammates, but it was never confirmed if that was the case. Later games settled for a more reasonable E10+ rating. | |

Master of None | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_2804d516 | comment |
Master of None: Mario, normally the Jack of All Stats, fell into this category. Power Creep from Melee to Brawl was not kind to him, leaving him with ungainly speed and mobility, above-average weight counterbalanced by susceptibility to chain-grabs and an unimpressive recovery, and a whole lot of moves that, on top of puny reach, were too strong to lead into combos and too weak to finish an opponent off. The following game gave him a number of buffs that let him find a proper niche. The Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon. They are intended to have Multiform Balance, with Squirtle being a Fragile Speedster, Charizard a Mighty Glacier, and Ivysaur in the middle. Problem was, it was closer to this trope. Ivysaur doesn't hit anywhere near as hard as Charizard, and it lacks Squirtle's comboing abilities. It being heavier than Squirtle is counterbalanced by the fact that it has an atrocious recovery and air game, making it comparatively easy to KO, and speed and maneuverability on the ground and in the air is abysmal compared to Charizard. Worst of all, the game attempted to implement a form of the original game's Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors, but while plant-based moves to take down Squirtle and water-based moves to take down Charizard are only used by a handful of characters, fire-based moves are legion, making Ivysaur even easier to flatten. A number of players have argued that, were Ivysaur to be its own character, it would likely be considered the worst in the entire game. | |

Law of Inverse Recoil | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_2941069e | comment |
Law of Inverse Recoil: Diddy Kong gets recoil from his Peanut Popgun when he shoots it. He also gets more recoil the more he charges it before firing it. Lucas' PK Fire has enough recoil to be considered a possible recovery technique when fired in the opposite direction. Samus' charge beam also has a bigger recoil the more charged it is. Her missiles don't have nearly as much, though. Despite how quickly he fires subsequent shots, the recoil is enough to make Fox's Blaster point 90 degrees upwards. Falco's, on the other hand, has very little recoil, though he does cross his arms and hold it sideways. Wolf's has very little recoil. They're all energy weapons, however, and should have none. The laser gun item has the most recoil of all, even though it too fires nothing but energy, every character has to hold it with both hands and it still almost hits them in the face every time they fire. The Super Scope, however, has very little recoil and can fire rapidly, and only a little more when a shot is charged. It still only shoots light, however. Averted with the Cracker Launcher. As with real life rocket launchers, the recoil is insignificantly low, and you have to look real closely to see characters twitch with each shot slightly. This allows the use of rapidly firing it. | |

Misbegotten Multiplayer Mode | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_2b9272d7 | comment |
Misbegotten Multiplayer Mode: Despite nearly everything being designed with co-op multiplayer functionality, certain subgames are very obviously meant for single players: Home Run Contest. Yes, you can do try and play the contest with a friend, and somehow try and team up in an attempt to send Sandbag flying as far as possible. This usually doesn't work too well, partly because it's way too easy to send Sandbag flying the wrong way at the wrong time with two players running around like lunatics and attacking the hell out of it. Boss Battles is near unplayable on anything resembling a high difficulty level because every boss has a powerful attack and two of the ten bosses have One-Hit Kill attacks. You have no continues, health restoration is massively limited and any one person dying/getting KOed immediately causes both to fail on the spot. As a result, playing this mode with friends, especially inexperienced ones trying to play the higher difficulty levels, usually ends in tears, typically when both players get to the Final Boss and one player fails to dodge the insta-kill Off Waves. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Several of the Final Smash attacks in this game and onwards qualify for this trope. For example, any one that requires a player to catch an opponent will often do large amounts of damage and kill at low percentages to those unfortunate enough to get caught in one and are often very flashy. But, they usually have very short range, making it easy for zoning characters to try and hit the smash ball out of you, and will go to waste if dodged, which is often easy given that the short range most of them have often forces predictable usage of them. Special mention to Marth's (and Lucina's) final smash: It does 60% damage and an almost guaranteed kill on hit, as well as having an absolutely insane amount of movement range. But, not only is it just as easy to dodge as any other similar Final Smash, but the range is also so large that it's easy to self-destruct with it if you use it carelessly (such as using it in the air on a small stage). This is subverted if you press B again to cancel the movement and end the attack, though the game doesn’t explain this up front. Donkey Kong's Final Smash, a rhythm minigame with a soundwave that grows bigger with each beat that's hit correctly. It takes some time to get its range to anything useful and has no outstanding damage output or knockback. It was even worse in Brawl, where the player wasn't even given a button prompt, so it ended up being luck more than anything. Small wonder it got replaced in Ultimate. Lucario's Final Smash. While the beam is aimable, it takes a while for it to move, and the charge up time it takes before Lucario fires gives the opponents a good amount of time to start running away. More often than not, other fighters can just go to the corner of the stage, jump out of the way when the beam's about to hit them, and before the final smash can do much damage, it'll already run out. The Home-Run Bat became this in this game. In the original and Melee, it had a slightly unwieldy swing time but was still usable much of the time and was a reliable one-hit KO, stage obstacles notwithstanding. In Brawl, it works more-or-less the same way, except the swing time is dramatically increased. It makes a highly effective thrown weapon in every single game, however. | |

Switch-Out Move | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_2c4950a6 | comment |
Switch-Out Move: Zelda can switch to Sheik and vice versa like in Melee. Brawl also introduces the Pokémon Trainer, who doesn't directly fight but sends out three Pokémon in a vein to their origin series. These Pokémon are Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard, who play differently from each other, but the Trainer can switch them out using their Down Special, again like in their franchise. All three Pokémon have different weight classes, allowing players to make good use of combo moves utilizing their switch mechanic. Also in Brawl, veteran fighter Samus Aran gains an alternate form: her Zero Suit self. While the armored version is slower and projectile-heavy, the Zero Suit version is faster and more melee-oriented. Samus can switch between armored and Zero Suit forms via Final Smash (although, while it's hard, armored Samus can also rapidly taunt to shed her armor). | |

Glass Cannon | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Lucario's Glass Cannon status is highlighted more in this game where his Aura properly forces him to deal a lot of damage at low health while at the same time makes him more vulnerable to being knocked out of the stage easily with very simple attacks. Even at full health, Lucario still gets beaten up around the stage easily. Zelda has become buffed to where she has downright deadly kicks and a powerful long-range attack, but is still easily tossed around. Also watch out for beetles as they take her faster than most others. | |

Out of the Inferno: Fox emerges from his downed, burning Arwing unscathed, even after his Arwing is knocked out of the sky by the Halberd's claw, crash-lands, and takes a direct hit from Rayquaza. Princess Peach gets a scene like this while holding her parasol, on the fight above the Halberd in the Subspace Emissary. Later, the four ships fly out of the explosion created when the Halberd was shot through by the Subspace Gunship. The Ancient Minister in ROB's reveal. Though that's not exactly walking out of the flames, and more fighting unhindered while on fire. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: Some of the available hacks out there can freeze the game under certain conditions. One very common example is if the player has the Smash Stack file on an inserted SD card (which was the predominant method players utilized to use mods without hacking their Wii), but didn't activate a code to disable custom stages, which will cause the game to crash when they go on the stage select screen as the game tries to load the Smash Stack file as if it were a custom stage. It's possible to mash out of Yoshi's grab before his tongue brings you into his mouth. This requires near TAS-level mashing and being barely damaged to do, but if Yoshi's opponent can break Yoshi's grab before going into his mouth the game will lock up. This glitch was theoretically so severe that it briefly stirred up debate about if Yoshi should be banned from competitive play (as causing the console to crash in a bracket set would be very disruptive to tournaments and since this would be the result of normal play there would be no fair way to pin the blame for the crash on either player). However it was deemed that causing the glitch was not in realistic human capabilities to do in real matches and so Yoshi's tournament status remained untouched (and indeed there are no known instances of this glitch occurring in an actual tournament match). With Sheik's Side Special move, Chain, if she uses it at the absolute apex of her short hop, as soon as she lands the hitboxes of her Chain will be replaced with the hitboxes of the last move she used prior, which would normally be a bug with some neat applications. However if she activates this glitch without having used any other move prior on her stock, the game will just crash. Unlike the Yoshi glitch above, this one had clearcut ramifications in competitive play, where if a Sheik player crashes the game with this glitch they are automatically DQ'd (as activation of the glitch would entirely be the Sheik player's fault and they would be able to avoid triggering the glitch when it will crash the game). When Meta Knight ues his Down Special move, Dimensional Cape, he can disappear indefinitely as long as the player can mash up on the C-stick during the disappearing portion of the move, where Meta Knight is then completely intangible as long as he remains off the screen. Usage of this glitch in tournaments in any capacity was banned immediately upon its discovery, as a Meta Knight player that has the lead in a match could secure victory with no interaction by exploiting this glitch to be untouchable until the match's timer ran out. It's possible to become stuck on Tabuu when he uses his whip grab. The player remains stuck and completely unable to move until Tabuu kills the player. The glitch is thus an auto loss in Boss Battles or if the player only had one stock left in SSE. | |

Deus ex Machina: Sonic ambushing Tabuu before he can fire another round of his Off-Waves. It's not foreshadowed or hinted in any way, and there is no real explanation for Sonic suddenly being in Subspace fighting alongside the other characters (other than his late inclusion into the roster). | |

Optional Party Member: Since every character you've met so far gets Trophified after entering Subspace, most of the roster ends up as this for the last third of the game. The only characters you are guaranteed to have at the end are King Dedede, Kirby, Luigi, Ness, Bowser, and Sonic. | |

Advancing Boss of Doom | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_409d3c07 | comment |
Advancing Boss of Doom: Subspace Emissary features Meta-Ridley as a boss you fight while it chases the Falcon Flyer, which you're standing on, as it makes its way out of the Bomb Factory. Meta-Ridley, however, doesn't so much attack you as he does the craft in general, with you happening to be in the line of fire. This doesn't seem like a big deal, until you see his attack where he slams the ship downward into the abyss. Remember, going too far off-screen in Super Smash Bros. is the only way to die, and your character almost always sticks to platforms when not airborne or attacked, despite the fact that the platform is being moved downward. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The ending is happy for the most part, but has a sad twist to it. Tabuu is defeated and all of the Subspaced locations are restored to the World of Trophies, but the Island of Ancients doesn't return due to the sheer volume of damage that the area took. Since Tabuu is responsible for the destruction of the R.O.B.s due to the detonation of the Subspace Bombs, this also makes the playable R.O.B. the Last of His Kind. | |

Desperation Attack: Lucario's attacks get more powerful as his damage percentage increases, peaking out at 168%. This is invoked in an event match where you have to play as Lucario starting out with high percent (182%). If a character is down several points or stock, they automatically gain Final Smash powers the next time they drop down onto the stage. | |

Alien Sky: The Great Maze's save points take place in what appears to be another "bubble" of an area taken in by Subspace bombs, except that for some reason, the sky in the background appears to be ripping to expose the actual Subspace itself. Captain Falcon's Final Smash involves sending whoever gets caught into a track, where he soon runs them over with the Blue Falcon. It may just be an usual cloudy storm, but the sky in this setting is purple and has several "warped" shapes in it.◊ | |

Being sent flying into the sky is sufficient damage to trophify Mario in the first level, but a few levels later Diddy Kong suffers the same fate but remains awake. To be fair, Mario was hit by a cannon ball that launched him into a completely different world, while Diddy Kong was knocked away by Donkey Kong; DK likely managed to somehow pull his punch to send his little buddy flying away without really hurting him. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: A meta one for third parties. Music rearranged by the original company (Theme of Love and Angel Island Zone) would be owned by said company, while the next two games the arrangements would be owned by Nintendo. In its debut in this game, the Assist Trophy item has multiple characters that you have to unlock before they get the chance to be summoned when you grab one, such as Shadow and Isaac. Later games simply have every character that the item can summon available from the start. | |

Unexpected Shmup Level: The game does this when you beat Classic or All-Star mode, like in Melee (not the case with Adventure Mode, however; it only uses standard credits). It also features the Coin Shooter minigame that lets you collect trophies and stickers, and is a great source of distraction. | |

In the Pokémon games, some of Rayquaza's feats include stopping the world-ending rampage of two legendary monsters and preventing a meteor from destroying the planet.

Money for Nothing | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_5534431f | comment |
Money for Nothing: Coins are mainly used for continuing if you fail in Classic or All-Star mode and used for the Coin Launcher to get stickers and trophies. The fact that you literally gain coins for every single mode you play in and gambling coins for spectator mode online, you'll quickly reach the 9999 coin limit with nothing worthwhile to spend it on. Note that if you're into 100% Completion, it's quite likely that you will blow through all 9999 coins you collect in the process of trying to get many trophies in the Coin Launcher, or continuing repeatedly in some of the higher difficulties of Classic and All-Star modes. But it's not like it takes long to build your cash back up, and you'll only need to do all that once. | |

Demographic-Dissonant Crossover: Brawl marked the start of non-Nintendo guest fighters joining the roster, with the very first one announced being Solid Snake from the Metal Gear, an M-rated series notorious for its realistic depictions of the horrors of war and violence, sex, profanity, tobacco usage, and political conspiracy storylines. Snake's Brawl arsenal is conspicuously limited to mines, grenades and similar explosive weapons rather than anything which shoots bullets. | |

Subspace or Hyperspace: The story mode, appropriately called "The Subspace Emissary", features Subspace as an alternate dimension, home of Master Hand and Tabuu. It can be accessed via giant evergrowing purple spheres created by the supspace bombs and the subspace cannon, which draw everything they touch into it. Subspace itself is mostly a dark purple-ish void filled with purple energy platforms and spheres containing the landscapes that were swallowed up by the gates. | |

While standing over Ganondorf's statue, Link and Zelda agree that they do need his help. They awaken him and point him toward the Great Maze. As they walk away, Ganondorf starts loading up an attack to go after them, but realizes that, sadly, he needs their help as much as they need his, and follows along. | |

BottomlessPit | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_5b415ef2 | comment |
In the last part of the mode, the Great Maze, there are a few new areas. One of them is a wooden area based on a past one, which ends with two bottomless pits, only one of which will actually kill you. The other leads to a necessary battle. Since they are so close together, the map won't tell you if you're too far off from the door in question, and you scroll down with both. However, although it's incredibly obvious which one is the deadly one when it scrolls down, at that point you are too far down to do anything about it but struggle until losing a life. Luckily those lives can be quickly replenished. | |

Inconsistent Dub | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_5b607875 | comment |
Inconsistent Dub: There's a bizarre example between this game and Smash Bros. Dojo, which apparently have their own separate translation teams. The game pluralizes the recurring enemies in the Subspace Emissary as "Primids", while the site prefers just "Primid" (made even more jarring when the Trophy Stand update had a screenshot of the Big Primid trophy that includes the game's pluralization). Additionally, the game level "Outside the Ancient Ruins" is referred to on the site as "Outer Ancient Ruins" in the Secret Element List update, and the Mysteries of The Subspace Emissary update calls what is named the "Island of the Ancients" in the game the "Isle of Ancients". The site did correct some of its own errors later on, as at one point, Samurai Goroh and the Wario Bike and Drill Rush attacks are called Samurai Goro, the Wario Chopper and the Triple Dash. The Italian site also has Ike's Aether being renamed "Twilight" all of a sudden some months before the game's release, where it was still called "Aether". More from the Italian translation of Brawl: for some reason, the translators made up new Italian names for the characters from Panel de Pon and Drill Dozer (which were never released in Europe) in the sticker list. The odd part comes when you get the Lip sticker and she is renamed "Fiorella"... yet Lip's Stick is still called "Bacchetta di Lip" and not "Bacchetta di Fiorella"! | |

Good All Along: In The Subspace Emissary mode, King Dedede spends most of the story trying to take fighters that have been turned into trophies. Then after everybody except the three that he did manage to get face down Tabuu and get trophified, the badges he placed on two of the three turn them back to normal...the third one ironically was swallowed by his archenemy after falling off the princess you chose to save. The Ancient Minister also turns out to have been blackmailed by Ganondorf. Once Ganondorf controls the other R.O.B.s into doing his bidding, he fights back with the heroes. | |

Mechanically Unusual Fighter | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_5fc1c4b5 | comment |
Mechanically Unusual Fighter: Samus, originally a standard fighter, received an alternate form in this game but cannot switch to it at will. Using her Final Smash breaks her Varia Suit and leaves her in the Zero Suit, who is faster and has more close-ranged attacks, just like Sheik. Using Zero Suit Samus' Final Smash will regenerate the Varia Suit. Also like Sheik, holding down buttons before a match starts will turn the player into Zero Suit Samus without needing a Final Smash. Just like Zelda/Sheik, 3DS/Wii U and Ultimate turned Samus into two separate characters and removed the transformation mechanic. The Pokémon Trainer is a step above Zelda and Samus as a three-form fighter; they can switch between Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard at will with their down special. All three Pokémon tire out if used for too long at a time, encouraging continuous switching. Each Pokémon has basic Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors weaknesses and resistances as well. The fourth game replaced the Trainer with just Charizard, but brought them back in Ultimate with the same mechanics minus the tiredness and element systems, making them the only multi-form fighter on the roster at launch. Olimar/Alph is The Minion Master whose majority of attacks are tied to his Pikmin; he has very few moves that deal damage when he's by himself. He can pull one of five types out of the ground with his neutral special, and can have up to six following him at once (three in 3DS/Wii U and Ultimate). Pikmin die if an opponent manages to hit them, so Olimar needs to recover them with his whistle if they get too far away. In later games, his recovery, Winged Pikmin, gets more effective when Olimar has fewer Pikmin. All of Meta Knight's special moves double as recovery moves. Each one is so potent on their own — especially on top of his multiple jumps — that they render him helpless when completed, preventing players from chaining them together. Solid Snake has attacks with unusual timing to them, including an up special with extremely high recovery which makes him very vulnerable. His Grenades are projectiles that deal Scratch Damage if they hit his opponents, as their timed explosions are what causes any real damage, and his Remote Missiles are manually controlled. Originally in Brawl, he had a very unconventional down smash, involving him planting a landmine that would either explode after a set amount of time or when someone got too close to it. As of Ultimate, his down smash was changed. Lucario grows stronger as he takes damage, increasing both his damage output and the size of his special moves' effects, making him a character all about managing risk and taking advantage of bad situations. While 3DS/Wii U extended the increased knockback effect to every fighter through the new Rage mechanic, Lucario remains the only one whose moves deal more damage and behave differently because of it. | |

Throw the Mook at Them: King Dedede inverts this by throwing his own minions at enemies. He can throw Waddle Dees as a projectile with his Side+Special, or occasionally a Waddle Doo, and more rarely throwing a highly-damaging Gordo. This was simplified in the fourth game, where he exclusively throws Gordos. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Many cases: After mowing through R.O.B.s by the dozen in previous stages, the characters are completely unable to damage them in cutscenes. The second instance can be justified if you believe that Samus and the others had learned of the R.O.B.'s enslavement at that point and didn't want to hurt them. But nothing excuses Mario and Pit's earlier failure to stop them from arming a Subspace Bomb, nor Kirby, Link and Yoshi's inability to act until the bomb had already gone off. Averted near the beginning: Zelda teleports onto the field and later gets captured in a cage without even trying to escape. However, this is completely accurate to the actual mechanic of the attack, which does not let you go through things, just turn invisible and quickly move in one direction. The Porky Statue contains an example of Segregation AND Integration. In a cutscene, Ness destroys the Porky Statue with PK Flash, which is one of the only two attacks it was truly vulnerable to in Mother 3. However, if you beat the game and replay the stage as Ness, you'll find it's still invincible to attacks outside of cutscenes. Due to the sheer amount of Subspace Bombs going off in one place, the Isle of the Ancients is unable to be restored at the end of the game. However, it remains on the world map with all its stages reopened in the post-game so you can go back and collect anything you have missed. | |

Plot Hole | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_6331ba26 | comment |
Pit (who has wings) tries (and fails) to attack the airborne Ancient Minister. This creates a Plot Hole because it is never explained in game that he can't actually fly, at least not for more than a few seconds. The fact that he can fly for nearly ten full seconds when the player is controlling him (more than enough to catch the Ancient Minister) just makes things more confusing. | |

Grievous Harm with a Body | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_6377d6e6 | comment |
Grievous Harm with a Body: One of King Dedede's special moves involves him chucking various Mooks at his opponent. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U, the move only uses Gordos and he hits them at his opponent with his hammer. Many characters are able to damage other enemies while throwing an opponent they've grabbed, whether by hitting them with the grabbed opponent during their throw animation (Mario's spinning throw is actually a decent way to clear off a crowd of enemies) or actually hitting them in the sky with the thrown opponent. The attacks, however, are brief, and not particularly damaging. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: Donkey Kong and Ness each perform one. Donkey Kong saves Diddy Kong from a trophy beam from Bowser by punching him away just in time to take the bullet himself. Ness similarly shoves Lucas out of the way of Wario's trophy beam, which leads him to take the bullet. Meta Knight sacrifices his ship to provide everyone else's ships cover to get in close to the Subspace Gunship. | |

Indy Escape: In Subspace Emissary, during Lucas's introductory stage, he must run from the invincible Pig King statue while avoiding or defeating enemies as the statue continuously advances on the left side of the screen. At one point, the statue falls in the water and sinks, and you think you're safe, but then it (or another one) falls from the sky and you must keep going. If you're not expecting it, the statue can easily kill you when it lands. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_65e33518 | comment |
Lethal Harmless Powers: In Golden Sun, Isaac's "Move" power is simply a floating hand that gently pushes large objects a short distance. In Brawl, the Assist Trophy version of Isaac uses Move to gently push your opponents a short distance... off the stage. The fact that it's a gentle push as opposed to a harsh one works to his advantage, too: you're pushed only a tiny bit ahead of the hand, so you have no time to escape before it gives you another gentle push. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_661398a5 | comment |
Swap Fighter: A large amount of these characters (along with having Zelda and Sheik return from the previous game) have been introduced. In the previous two games, Samus was a standalone fighter like everybody else. In Brawl, she becomes Zero Suit Samus after using her Final Smash with a changed moveset and can switch back to Power Suit Samus with the same method. The Pokémon Trainer invokes this trope by not actually being the fighter, but rather has you controlling his Pokémon which swap with down B in order of Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard. | |

Interface Screw: Palkia on the Spear Pillar Stage can flip the stage upside down and even mirror it, but doing so does not change the controls. Manaphy's "Freaky Friday" Flip if summoned from a Pokéball flips the summoner with their opponent for a few seconds. The Nintendog Assist Trophy brings up a puppy that stands in front of the screen blocking the match for several seconds. If Mr. Resetti is summoned as an Assist Trophy, he'll start ranting, obscuring a good portion of the screen with his text boxes. The Devil Assist trophy will scroll the screen in a random direction, perhaps putting parts of the stage beyond the blast lines. | |

Goomba Stomp: After Melee introduced it in Adventure Mode, Brawl retains this mechanic in its own Adventure Mode (Subspace Emissary), and it also has a Giant Goomba which can dish out decent Collision Damage unless you can get above it, at which point bouncing up and down on its head about six times sends it down for the count. Stomping on the small Goombas almost always results in an Item Drop. | |

The Lost Woods: The Distant Planet stage based on the Forest of Hope from Pikmin, makes an appearance. The plants and leaves are oversized (with some of them acting as platforms), to replicate how Olimar (a very small character himself) explores the biomes of PNF-404. Periodically, it rains and the water makes the rocky slope very slippery, increasing the risk of falling into the pit for the characters. Every once in a while, a Bulborb appears, and opens its mouth to potentially have a character fall onto it to eat them. | |

Master of All: Infamously, Meta Knight. He can K.O. foes as well as he can rack up damage at insane speeds, his aerial mobility and exceptional recovery moves more than make up for his one visible flaw of lightweight, and his sword was programmed with a ton of priority (jargon for the parameter that dictates which moves win against others when clashed against one another. In MK's case, his sword has "transcedent" priority over most other moves), meaning that he can pierce through most defenses with ease. This all led to a character that was actually banned in tournaments for a time. | |

Marathon Level: The Great Maze, which is straight Metroidvania style, in contrast to the linear levels used in the rest of the game. It also counts for roughly one third of your completion percentage. Thankfully, there's no need to do it all in one sitting. As far as linear levels go, Subspace Factory (Lower) is a long trip. It also has multiple cutscenes, a big turning point in the plot, two potential Last Lousy Points, and Meta Ridley. The Cave and the first stage of Subspace are relatively short, but the fact that they only consist of one long section rather than multiple short ones makes them strenuous for players who keep getting Game Overs. | |

Cosmetic Award: The game ramps up the "time-consuming" part of the above paragraph by a lot with too many "Complete <mode> with all 35 characters" tasks but slacks down on the difficulty otherwise. Well, except for the Liquid Snake sticker, which requires killing 10 foes on Cruel Brawl and the Galleom Tank, demanding completion of Boss Battles on Intense. Unless you live in Europe and haven't wasted your Golden Hammers, in which case you're able to quickly claim the latter with one. And that's not counting the random trophies, which are even more random due to the lottery being replaced by the Coin Launcher. | |

Unflinching Walk: Princess Peach. Walking right next to turrets and guns that were in the middle of shooting down Fox. Of course, she has her parasol out, so maybe that's what's shielding her. And right before the Duon boss fight, while everyone else is focusing on Duon, Peach is nonchalantly straightening her skirt as if it was just a normal day. | |

Out-of-Genre Experience: This mode is generally more of a side-scrolling platformer than a fighting game, with most of the enemies being Mooks and not Player Characters. "Generally" meaning that there are still portions that use the rest of the game's fighting elements, as well as a Metroidvania level late in the mode. | |

Level Editor: The game comes with a rather simplified, grid-based editor called the Stage Editor that doesn't allow the player to do even 1/10 of what the game designers themselves did. Even so, it's the first game in the series to include an editor, which provided a lot of fun for players who had specific ideas in mind of types of arenas they wanted to make. | |

The Lethal Connotation of Guns and Others | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_77059ab0 | comment |
The Lethal Connotation of Guns and Others: Snake uses explosives instead of his guns for weaponry. In his original canon of Metal Gear, he had a perfectly serviceable tranquilizer gun. The stated reason he only uses explosives is that they're cooler and funnier than just shooting people. Plus, it works better with how the game works; sure, guns can hurt people, but can they send them flying off the stage like you're supposed to do in Smash? The follow-up games allow Bayonetta, Duck Hunt, and Joker to use bullet-based weapons freely, and most of said weapons have pitiful launching power. | |

The Big Bad Shuffle | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_77eeb348 | comment |
The Big Bad Shuffle: The mode has numerous villains. This stems partly from the nature of the game - as a lumping together of the respective Nintendo mythologies, all the key villains come with their respective heroes. It at first seems that the Subspace Army is led by the Ancient Minister, with Bowser and Wario working with them to take out the other fighters and collect them in their trophy forms. King Dedede is also collecting trophied fighters, but he's competing with the other villains, and it turns out he's Good All Along, as he was collecting the fighters so that he could give them timed badges that would revive them in case all the fighters were wiped out. Then it turns out that the real leader of the Subspace Army is Ganondorf, and Ancient Minister was Forced into Evil in order to protect the R.O.B.s. THEN it turns out Ganondorf and the other fighters working with the Subspace Army were working under Master Hand, who was in turn being controlled by the true villain Tabuu, the lord of Subspace. | |

In one area (The Path To The Ruins) there is a series of what seem like narrow, bottomless pits, but one of them actually leads to a door hiding one of the item boxes necessary for 100% Completion. The correct pit can be found in front of a Borboras, but if you don't know it's there, you'll likely panic and try to avoid being pushed down it. | |

Point of No Return: Played with. As the story progresses, Subspace Bomb explosions prevent you from replaying certain levels (including the very first level of the game), and the Halberd gets destroyed when you finally gain access to Subspace, so you can't replay the Halberd levels either (though you still walk on it at the beginning of the Sea of Clouds level, somehow). The only way to replay these levels at this point is to beat the game and reach the Playable Epilogue. | |

And Now for Someone Completely Different: The game does this in the Adventure Mode, where you switch between various groups between levels, until the gang comes together for the grand finale. The levels aren't much of an issue, but you still lose out on sticker bonuses that you applied to the characters. And if they just became playable, you can't use stickers on them until you finish the level, and of course you need to get familiar with the character as well. | |

Too Awesome to Use: The Golden Hammers can automatically unlock a secret without having to do the challenge. In the few challenges that really are exceptionally difficult (beating Boss Battles on Insane, for example), you can't actually use the hammers in the first place, except in the PAL versions. The Heart Containers in Boss Battles. They completely heal you, but there are only three, and they can't be used mid-battle, which often results in death after deciding to try and tank an easy boss at high damage. | |

The AI can navigate custom stages fairly well... unless it has spikes. CPUs don't quite seem to get the idea that spikes are bad, and it's not uncommon to see a CPU work their damage up hundreds higher than normal just bouncing on spikes. They only get the hint when they're about one inch away from them and unable to do anything about it. | |

Quad Damage | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_8410bf3b | comment |
Quad Damage: The Smash Ball, introduced in this game, allows a character to perform a Final Smash, and for many character this trope is the main effect. In particular: Bowser and Wario's Final Smashes are both temporary Quad Damage effects with Bowser's being a large increase in reach and knockback and Wario's being a large increase in speed and mobility. R.O.B.'s Final Smash in this game is like this too, giving him constant laser eyes for a little while. | |

Superboss: Extra doors appear in three stages after you beat Tabuu and complete the story; going inside them will pit you against Toon Link, Wolf, or Jigglypuff, depending on the level. However, you only have one chance to defeat them and their AI is much more aggressive than the characters you fought previously. | |

Story-Breaker Power: Tabuu's Off Wave has the power to revert all the characters back into trophies, which allows it to completely curb-stomp nearly the entire cast in seconds, with only a Chekhov's Gun allowing one to get free and revive the others. After that, they are only saved from another Off Wave by a Deus ex Machina Big Damn Heroes moment from Sonic, which depowers the Off Wave enough to only be a One-Hit Kill that covers the entire screen and can only be avoided through rolling and air dodging. | |

Deadly Dodging: It's possible to do significant damage to the boss Duon by getting its homing missiles to crash into it. The Auroros enemies attack by dive-bombing players with their sharp beaks, and remain stuck in the ground if they miss. Players can bait them into attacking and dodge at the last minute to get them like this, after which they can be picked up and thrown like javelins. | |

Warm-Up Boss: Petey Piranha is the first boss in this mode, and he only has two attacks; swipe a cage left or right, and jump up to stomp on the ground. Both attacks are ridiculously easy to avoid, with plenty of blind spots and a ton of startup to them to ensure you can easily react, aren't that powerful if they do somehow hit you, and Petey himself has pretty low durability to go down quickly. Each of the subsequent bosses have a big variety of moves that are a lot harder to evade and hit a lot harder, and will take a lot more punishment before going down. | |

Strangely, Brawl is also the first game in the series whose Classic Mode averts this trope (the second is Ultimate), since the designated Quirky Miniboss Squad (the Fighting Alloys) are only fought in the Multi Mook Brawl modes. | |

Joke Item: Certain items can backfire or just simply fail to work. For example, there's a small chance the otherwise highly destructive Golden Hammer item will end up instead being a Golden Squeaky Hammer, which deals no damage to those it strikes. In addition, throwing a Poké Ball may sometimes summon Goldeen, which does nothing (an obvious poke towards Magikarp's famed Splash attack). The fourth games further the joke by allowing Goldeen to pop out of Master Balls, which usually contain legendary Pokémon only. | |

There Is No Kill Like Overkill | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_8b606a51 | comment |
There Is No Kill Like Overkill: Almost all Final Smashes are like this. Sonic and Pikachu start flying around dealing huge damage to whatever touches them. The Starfox fighters break through with their Landmasters. Mario shoots a ludicrously large fireball across the screen. Link does a combo of about two dozen hits before sending the enemy flying away. Ike's Final Smash involves striking the enemy once, then catapulting them into the sky, where they are then slashed repeatedly with his sword before being hurtled back down to earth (and usually, back off into the sky). And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Some of these can, with the right timing, kill an enemy, and then kill them again as soon as they have respawned and their Mercy Invincibility has expired. | |

Comeback Mechanic | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_8bb6d274 | comment |
Comeback Mechanic: The Pity Smash is given to someone who has been knocked out multiple times without inflicting a knockout. It allows a free use of a powerful Final Smash. From this game onward, Lucario has this as a unique character mechanic. The more damage Lucario has, the more damage its Aura-based attacks will deal, with its power capping when the damage meter hits 170%. Lucario's current standing in a match also affects how powerful its attacks are; at one stock (or one point in Time matches) behind their opponent, its attacks will be 20% more powerful, and on two or more stocks/points behind, its attacks will be 40% more powerful. On the contrary, if it's one stock/point ahead, it'll be at 90% of the usual power, while being two or more stocks/points ahead will leave its attacks with 80% of their usual power. For one more bonus, the size of Lucario's neutral special, Aura Sphere, directly correlates with its current power standing. | |

Out-of-Character Moment | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_8ca20b69 | comment |
Out-of-Character Moment: Rayquaza, who has saved the world in its own series and normally lives in the ozone layer, shows up in the Subspace Emissary when it attacks Diddy Kong for simply wandering past the lake it's living in. Following the "Misunderstanding" cutscene, Yoshi joins Link in the battle against Mario instead of trying to work out the situation peacefully. Once that's done, they go back to being close friends, with Yoshi even letting Mario ride him to escape a Subspace Bomb in a subsequent level. In a game where nearly every character has their end of game personalities and powers (Ness ready to face off against Porky, Samus ready to fight Ridley, and so on), Lucas is the only one who acts below that seeing his final boss equivalent as something terrifying. In itself that's not too bad, but it becomes truly OOC when Ness is hit by the Trophy gun and runs in terror away from Wario, abandoning his new friend who he just fought with to a villain. Even in the prologue chapter of Mother 3 where Lucas is very much known as 'a crybaby' and is 3 years younger than he is in the main game, the moment he realizes his friends were in danger (from tanks, no less), he riled together the creatures of the forest and mounted a rescue attack to save them. It's pretty farfetched to expect the same kid, 3 years later, to abandon another psychic kid to a single human villain just because they have a scary gun and garlic breath. | |

Subverted on Final Destination, which starts in space, goes through re-entry, and ultimately looks like it's on a collision course for the ground, before it whites out and starts over. Interestingly enough, the white out happens at exactly 5 minutes, which is how long you have to beat the boss fight, implying that you did crash. | |

Beat the Curse Out of Him | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_8f6a683 | comment |
Beat the Curse Out of Him: The villains use "shadow bugs" mined from Mr. Game & Watch to create evil, purple-tinted versions of some of the heroes, like Peach and Diddy Kong. Most of the time, the real hero is trapped in trophy form and can't be brought back to life until the cursed version is defeated. However, it is possible for Diddy to fight his own Evil Twin, and at one point, Bowser does this to himself so he can be in two places at once. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_902fa0b4 | comment |
Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: Rayquaza, a Pokémon who lives in the ozone layer, randomly emerges from a lake to attack Diddy Kong. What makes it even worse is that Rayquaza is often portrayed as a guardian of the planet, yet in this game the character is either affiliated to the Subspace Army or a mindless beast. Either way, Rayquaza has zero relevance to the plot. | |

Catch a Falling Star: A variation occurs in the Subspace Emissary mode, where several of the heroes jump out of a bomb-filled room and land in Captain Falcon's Cool Car. They're falling at enough of a height that they ought to be at terminal velocity, but Smash never really bothered with falling damage, what with the Rule of Cool and all. Meta Knight pulls this off with Lucas and the Pokémon Trainer, right before they hit the ground. Although at least in that case, it seemed like Lucas was trying to psychokinetically slow their fall. Also, the Trainer had already recovered his Charizard at that point and could have used it to save them. Too bad he was unconscious. | |

Since they cannot be defeated, it's also impossible to capture them, so their trophy can only be obtained by clearing the Boss Rush mode with 20 characters. | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: In general, CPU-controlleed characters have trouble with the idea that stages aren't always completely static. If the bottom of the stage is occupied by horizontally moving platforms, the computer-controlled characters will miss the platforms by a mile every single time. The AI can navigate custom stages fairly well... unless it has spikes. CPUs don't quite seem to get the idea that spikes are bad, and it's not uncommon to see a CPU work their damage up hundreds higher than normal just bouncing on spikes. They only get the hint when they're about one inch away from them and unable to do anything about it. Trampolines. If you're on one side of a wall and the CPU is on the other, it will spend tons of time trying to jump over the wall, even if it's too high, despite there being a spring behind it which it could use to jump over the wall. It has trouble with the falling blocks, too - it doesn't seem to have any foresight, so it will often remain standing on a block until it's too low to reach the rest of the stage. The AI will constantly approach dangerous items only to roll away from them just before they get hurt. The AI will always perform an air dodge immediately after being struck in air, or being hit into the air, oblivious to there being a brief window of vulnerability as one ends. It's quite easy to juggle them to death by simply timing your attacks. Fox, Falco and Wolf have a habit of driving off the stage to their deaths when using their Final Smash. This is particularly common on Lylat Cruise, but can happen in a wide variety of other places as well. | |

Highly Specific Counterplay: The Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon are affected by type effectiveness. However, Ivysaur's water resistance and Charizard's grass resistance are almost always useless outside of a Pokémon Trainer Mirror Match: The only other character who comes with a water move is Mario with his non-damaging F.L.U.D.D. You can also get Kirby to copy one of Squirtle's water moves or Ivysaur's grass moves, but that's a rare situation. | |

Olimar can only stand back in shock as Captain Falcon arrives in his Blue Falcon, jumps out of it, slams a Falcon Punch into a giant R.O.B., knocking it out... and lands on a group of Pikmin, killing them. Just as Tabuu is charging his Off Waves, Sonic comes out of nowhere, damaging both wings and greatly weakening Tabuu. | |

Not Me This Time: The villains are all running around turning heroes into trophies. Dedede captures several, and keeps them in his castle, placing badges on them. He runs out of badges, and reluctantly takes his own off to attach it to the final hero trophy. After the real villain, Tabuu, uses his ability to turn every single character into a trophy, the purpose of the badges is revealed: they restore a trophy to life after a time delay. And with Dedede's contingency plan proven a good idea, he and the heroes he captured go off to rescue the entire rest of the cast. | |

Loads and Loads of Loading: Fights take a noticeably longer time to load, and some loading can even be experienced during the fights.note The character Zelda can transform into her disguised form Sheik, and the Pokémon Trainer can switch his Pokémon. The game does not stop while loading the new character's model, but the loading is hidden by their transforming animation; in that process, one can audibly hear the Wii loading data. This is especially noticeable in the All-Star Event Matches, where opponents can take up to seven seconds to spawn, counting from the beginning of the battle. | |

Androids Are People, Too: R.O.B. is portrayed as a fully-autonomous being capable of feeling emotions. This is most prevalent during Subspace Emissary, where R.O.B. as the Ancient Minister is forced to sacrifice his fellow R.O.B.s in order to detonate Subspace Bombs and further the goals of the Subspace Army, an act he shows visible shame and remorse for many times. Finally, when Ganondorf forces the reminder of his people to arm the Subspace Bombs and it’s made clear that they can not be saved, R.O.B just slumps over in despair despite Diddy’s protests and has to be carried out by Donkey Kong. | |

Luck-Based Mission | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f | comment |
Luck-Based Mission: Getting all the trophies requires you to use trophy stands on every kind of enemy in Adventure Mode, including bosses. Of course, these stands are rare, and (just like Pokémon) you have to weaken the enemy in order to catch it, so it doesn't always work. Raising the difficulty level and using certain stickers will raise the chance of getting a stand, but it's still annoying when you hit a boss too hard, kill it, and you have to go through the whole level again for another chance, not to mention if the stupid bastards hit a conveniently-spawning Koopa Shell or a Blast Box with a stray attack of their own and thus end up dying without you being able to do a Goddamn thing about it. Playing with a friend can greatly help: one keeps the trophy stand and keeps distractions away, while the other whittles down the boss's health. Brawl does away with the Trophy Lottery seen in Melee in favor of a shooter game that's just as addictive in order to get trophies and stickers. However, it is still random whether or not new trophies even show up. The Mew Trophy is an especially bad case. It's bad enough you have to fight multiple characters at once while getting worn down, but the combinations are random and can range anywhere from easy peasy to downright lethal. And then there's the stickers. At least with the trophies you can aim for specific ones when using the stands or in the shooting mode; with stickers, apart from a few that you get for completing challenges, you have no way of knowing which sticker you'll get each time you grab one. Thus, the only way to get them all is massive amounts of sticker grinding, and once you're near the end you could spend hours doing it and not get anything new. | |

The plot itself has R.O.B. become the last of his kind after the Isle of the Ancients is completely vaporized, which is acknowledged by his Boxing Ring title in succeeding installments. | |

Acrophobic Bird | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_9af96ec2 | comment |
Acrophobic Bird: Played with in Subspace Emissary cutscenes: Early in the story, Pit leaps (with a boost from Mario) towards the airborne Ancient Minister and falls when he misses. It looks like a case of Cutscene Incompetence and Acrophobic Bird, but it's not. Pit normally can't fly unless he is powered by Palutena, and then it's only for five minutes at a time. Later on, Meta Knight subverts this by actually flying up high, and then immediately averted when the Ancient Minister shoots a dead-accurate laser shot right through Meta Knight's wing, forcing him to land and tend to it. Meta Knight actually seems to flip-flop in cutscenes. He flies low to the ground or runs when outside and traveling with others, but ascends to high height when he needs to save Lucas and Pokémon Trainer. He also flies through narrow indoor corridors, where you'd think running would be easier due to the size of his wingspan. Lastly, rather than flying up the entire way to the Halberd, he chooses instead to climb and leap up a mountain. | |

Eldritch Location | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_9bee1a7f | comment |
Eldritch Location: Subspace is a dark dimension that shines in black and purple. The Greater-Scope Villain lives there, and his wish is to drag the World of Trophies into Subspace. Over the course of the game, his minions steal several levels, and while his initial plot fails, he uses those locations to create the Great Maze. Subspace also serves as the setting for the final battle. | |

Taking the Bullet | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_9ce6492a | comment |
Taking the Bullet: Ness and Lucas are being attacked by Wario. Wario fires his trophy gun at Ness a few times, and Ness dodges all the shots easily. An irritated Wario then changes his target to Lucas. Lucas, being the cowardly little brat he is, doesn't even try to dodge, so Ness pushes Lucas out of the way, complete with slow motion camera panning, and is turned into a trophy in the process. It should be noted that in this world, being turned into a trophy is like death. And Donkey Kong for Diddy Kong (in their case, Donkey Kong actually had to punch Diddy Kong out of the way). | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_9d73dfcc | comment |
The All-Seeing A.I.: Like in Melee, no Interface Screw in the world is going to deter the AI. Examples unique to this game include: When the Nintendog appears to cover the screen, nothing happens to the AIs. The AI have perfect bearings when the controls or the stage in Spear Pillar is reversed, making the fight much harder than it needs to be. | |

Production Foreshadowing: The game serves as one for Kid Icarus: Uprising, albeit somewhat retroactively (Uprising was originally a completely unrelated game until the dev team thought that Pit & co. would be a perfect fit for their concepts). Pit and Palutena's updated looks are used in Uprising, as well as Pit's bow-twin swords weapon. His Fallen Angel Palette Swap from the game, on the other hand, became an actual character that even became a Smash fighter himself. Masahiro Sakurai of Kirby fame helms both the Super Smash Bros. series and Kid Icarus Uprising. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_9f7b20af | comment |
Late Character Syndrome: The mode gives you a quickly expanding cast of fighters to work with in the story and you get lots of share time between each fighter to get used to their play styles. You also have the opportunity to boost the powers of characters through stickers. At the Final Battle, Sonic the Hedgehog appears to weaken the final boss' ultimate attack and becomes playable for that one fight. You have no opportunity to boost his abilities and unless you went through the trouble to unlock him in the main fighting modes through alternative means beforehand (beat Classic Mode with 10 characters or fight in Brawl mode for 10 hours), no time to practice with him, making him practically useless for the final battle. | |

Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Tabuu, the first villain in the series with a clear motivation. Whereas Giga Bowser from the previous game's Adventure Mode was merely a secret opponent without much of a villainous agenda, Tabuu is explicitly a being from another dimension who aims to absorb the Super Smash Bros. universe into his domain of Subspace. He also differs from Giga Bowser and the two Hands in being the most human-like villain of the series so far. | |

Luckily, King Dedede had stashed away the trophies of Luigi and Ness with timed release revival badges, allowing them to go and revive everyone. Kirby also gets revived due to him holding on to the badge originally meant for Peach/Zelda. Additionally, when Tabuu tries the attack again, his wings are destroyed by Sonic, forcing him to fight on even terms. | |

Assembling the three pieces of the Dragoon is also an instant KO, even if the target hasn't suffered any damage. Unless, of course, you miss. | |

Mario, normally the Jack of All Stats, fell into this category. Power Creep from Melee to Brawl was not kind to him, leaving him with ungainly speed and mobility, above-average weight counterbalanced by susceptibility to chain-grabs and an unimpressive recovery, and a whole lot of moves that, on top of puny reach, were too strong to lead into combos and too weak to finish an opponent off. The following game gave him a number of buffs that let him find a proper niche. | |

Remixed Level | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_b1ddb121 | comment |
Remixed Level: The final level is the Great Maze, a Metroidvania-style labyrinth made up of parts of all the previous levels which had been blown up with Subspace bombs. On top of that, the Halberd segment isn't ripped from the previous Halberd stage, but rather, it's based off the elevator portion from the original Revenge of Meta Knight game in Kirby Super Star. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_b23e7ba9 | comment |
Real Is Brown: In addition to the detailed textures applied to the characters' clothings, the game emphasizes desaturated colors in models and environments to enhance the sense of realism. One good example is Mushroomy Kingdom, which is a desert wasteland through which Super Mario Bros.' World 1-1 runs. Sakurai even justified it by saying it's because the place's been abandoned for over 20 years, so it fell into decay. | |

Recurring Camera Shot: After Diddy Kong and Fox McCloud defeat Rayquaza, Diddy tries to enlist Fox to help him rescue Donkey Kong. Fox starts to walk away, so Diddy grabs him and drags him off by the scruff of his collar. Later he tries to get Fox's fellow Star Fox pilot Falco Lombardi to help as well, but he has the same reaction as Fox, so Diddy grabs him and drags him off the exact same way (this time with Fox walking behind the two, shrugging as if saying something at his teammate's expense). | |

Moveset Clone | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_b5439b51 | comment |
Moveset Clone: Less prominent in this game due to Divergent Character Evolution (plus the new "clones" having major differences from their parent counterparts to begin with), but still present to an extent: Lucas acts as this to Ness, though it's downplayed as the properties of his specials are different, and most of his standard attacks are completely different. Notably, Lucas is a starter character while Ness is unlockable. In the absence of Young Link, Toon Link acts as a semi-clone of Link. The catch in this case is that Link himself got differentiated (for example, he now uses the Gale Boomerang from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess instead of the traditional Boomerang from other games; the Gale Boomerang deals no damage on the return trip and instead has a "windbox" that pushes opponents around), while Toon Link plays closer to his predecessor Young Link. When both child Links returned in Ultimate, Young Link retains Link's old moveset but on a smaller body, while Toon Link is floatier and has a few different attacks in comparison. Brawl introduced an unusual partial example in Wolf; although his special moves and Final Smash are clearly inspired by those of his rivals Fox and Falco, they have drastically different properties, and most of his standard attacks are completely different. | |

Obvious Rule Patch: The dev team discovered the "wavedashing" glitchnote canceling out of a jump animation by air-dodging diagonally downward into the ground; this allows you to perform ground attacks while sliding forward pretty early in development, but left it in. Then they discovered how much of a drastic gap it created between newcomers and veteran players, and it was one of the first things they removed from Brawl. In addition, the physics were altered so that the ability to combo was taken out entirely. | |

Charizard was one of the Pokémon summoned in the first two games before it became a playable character in Brawl, Red made a cameo in the N64 game's intro before becoming playable as Pokémon Trainer and Wolf became playable in Brawl after making a cameo in Melee's intro.

Incredible Shrinking Man: The Lightning Bolt item from the Mario Kart series, is introduced here as an item. When a fighter touches it, it may temporarily shrink all of the other fighters on the stage, drastically reducing their damage output and weight. However, it may also backfire by making only the fighter who touched it shrink instead, or by making all of the other fighters grow! Additionally, any fighter that picks up a Poison Mushroom (which, while similar-looking to the size-increasing Super Mushroom, is slightly darker in coloration and bears an angrier expression) will get temporarily cut down to size. | |

Parodied when Slippy Toad unexpectedly shows up to proffer advice on fighting Falco Lombardi. The feature returns in Ultimate but, due to the passing of Otacon's Japanese voice actor, it wasn't updated with new conversations for the sake of respect. | |

Required Party Member: When you head out to fight the Final Boss, your party will always include Luigi, Ness, King Dedede, Bowser, Kirby, and Sonic. Anyone else you want needs to be collected as a trophy in the immediate two levels before the Very Definitely Final Dungeon and restored to normal form (Ganondorf in particular can't be unlocked unless you've unlocked both Link and Zelda). On the other hand, Toon Link, Wolf, and Jigglypuff can't be unlocked until after the final boss is defeated. | |

Xanatos Gambit: Played by King Dedede. If the heroes beat Tabuu the first time, well and good. But if they don't, no biggie, Dedede has the trophies of Ness and Luigi to be revived by his badges for just that occasion. It's notable after placing Peach/Zelda's trophy there as well, he gives up his own badge for her trophy, basically sacrificing his own failsafe in the hopes that he will be revived by one of the others. Even though Bowser busts in and steals her trophy anyway, it does allow Kirby to revive later on, since he ate her badge. | |

Stepping Stones in the Sky: Wario is capable of doing this by pulling his bike out of Hammerspace when in midair then immediately jumping out of it, which still allows him access to his Double Jump. Doing this actually boosts him higher than his regular recovery move. More generally, if two characters are in mid-air, one can use the other's head as a footstool to gain a bit of extra height. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_c5e42cbd | comment |
After mowing through R.O.B.s by the dozen in previous stages, the characters are completely unable to damage them in cutscenes. The second instance can be justified if you believe that Samus and the others had learned of the R.O.B.'s enslavement at that point and didn't want to hurt them. But nothing excuses Mario and Pit's earlier failure to stop them from arming a Subspace Bomb, nor Kirby, Link and Yoshi's inability to act until the bomb had already gone off. | |

It'll hog almost the entirety of a smaller level, frequently forcing the opposition to jump over or on top of it to avoid getting rammed or shot by it, but being in such a position can instead allow you to send them flying with a barrel roll, or more amusingly, simply carry them off the top of the screen using its jets for an instant KO. | |

Serial Escalation | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_ce104b8e | comment |
Serial Escalation: Brawl aimed to go even further than Melee in regards of the content available as well as the stakes raised: The increased number of trophies, stickers, stages, and characters can take a long while to locate, particularly the former two. The entirety of the Adventure Mode feels like a whole game when compared to its smaller counterpart from Melee, complete with bosses, cutscenes, plot twists, incredibly difficult platforming segments, etc. The items. You could spend forever trying to find item combos and such, but the arsenal itself is over-the-top crazy. The Masterpieces. They included playable demos of many of the characters' most famous games. Really more of an advertisement for the Virtual Console, but still. Custom stages. The game introduces the Stage Builder mode for players to design stages and choose the music themes that play in them. | |

Temple of Doom: There's a Ruins level featuring many enemies (including those part of the Subspace Army) and traps like falling spikes and fire jets; it is here where Pokémon Trainer captures Ivysaur and Charizard (his starter is Squirtle). In the Ruined Hall, one of the bosses (Galleom) is fought. | |

Anti-Villain | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_d001c42c | comment |
Anti-Villain: King Dedede starts stealing the trophies (corpses) of various heroes from Wario, presumably because he's trying to complete the same evil task as the other villains. He takes them to his castle and puts strange Dedede badges on them. Turns out, these badges are time-release detrophyfiers that bring said heroes back to life just in time for them to become the final resistance against the real villain. Dedede even selflessly gives his own pin to whichever princess he captured when he realizes that he doesn't have enough to save himself and the heroes. | |

Deliberately Monochrome: The Pictochat stage is largely black and white (by extension, the Pictochat software on the DS is also mostly monochrome), although the characters are still colored. In addition, flashbacks in the Adventure mode cutscenes are black and white. King Dedede also has a colour swap which gives him a monochrome colour scheme in reference to his debut appearance, but his hammer remains the same, and he retained it in the next installment. Kirby also gets one, with his copy ability hats remaining the same (except Jigglypuff's, since Kirby gets its ears and hair in his colour scheme). | |

A.I. Breaker | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_d0ea147f | comment |
A.I. Breaker: You can trick the AI into a lot of things, but the most memorable trick is probably the "Fly To Survive" scheme. It's only usable with the handful of characters who possess limited flight capabilities and it's mostly useful for the Cruel Brawl survival-test, where you face a bunch of seriously overpowered bots, but by simple constantly flying under the island the battle takes place on—hanging off the ledge on either side to reset your flight-time counter without having to properly land—you can trick the AI into jumping off the screen with a little practice. In the WarioWare Inc. stage, if the "Freeze!" microgame comes up, the CPU will stand still until the stage transitions all the way back to the main elevator room. But the stage credits you with not moving as soon as the microgame ends. A canny player can take advantage of the two or three seconds it takes to wind up a free Smash attack or other charged move on the nearest enemy. The stage editor allows for all sorts of bizarre computer player behavior. For instance, if you create a square, open at the top, on the upper-right corner of the stage and it's the correct size, Lucas will spend the entire match jumping back and forth. Zelda (who is considered a terrible fighter against any human) can easily beat any AI controlled character on flat stages by spamming her Din's Fire attack and slowly blasting the enemy to one side of the screen. The computer has literally no defense to this strategy. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_d62dd556 | comment |
The Chessmaster: King Dedede, of all people. As well as his Xanatos Gambit (see below), he protected himself as he went about his plan by appearing to be a bad guy. He made a backup plan for everyone so that just in case everything went horrifically wrong, there would still be someone who could save the day. Also, even if it was only part of the process, he did a pretty good job of incapacitating Wario. Even if he isn't much of a Chessmaster in his original series, this is still actually pretty representative of him normally: he appears to do wrong but is actually doing good, does things that are bad in the short term but helpful in the long term, and possesses knowledge that the heroes don't (his badges) and moves ahead of them. | |

Guest Fighter: Solid Snake from Metal Gear and Sonic the Hedgehog were the first third-party characters in the series, debuting in this game. The latter was highly demanded by fans who wanted to see him in a fighting game with Mario (which was why he was added in the game), and the game's website refers to both by the trope name. Solid Snake is a unique case as Hideo Kojima originally asked for Snake to be added to Super Smash Bros. Melee. However, that game was far along in development with no time to add another character, so the developers rainchecked him till Brawl. | |

Artificial Brilliance | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_df11acbe | comment |
Artificial Brilliance: Many fans have argued that the level 9 AI is capable of learning from human players. Players often point to examples of a certain characters' AI altering their recovery strategy after a human player has repeatedly used this character. Though this has been proven falsenote replays in Brawl are text files, not video files, containing a list of all actions the player took and all random outcomes, but no AI actions. The AI plays out a replay match the same way it would a live match. Therefore, the AI cannot change over time, or else the replay files with AI in them would desync over time. Also, the AI was eventually decoded and shown that no learning capability exists. but the rumor still persists. The stock AI can also be replaced with more effective AI. Among various projects, one Japanese hacker is working on an Ice Climber AI that never messes up its chaingrab infinites, something that is possible for humans—ie. not a true example of cheating AI — but difficult. | |

Male Gaze | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_dfb71617 | comment |
Male Gaze: Zero Suit Samus is introduced with her dropping to the ground from an air vent followed by a slow pan from her legs to her face. Clad in a Spy Catsuit as she is, this is hardly surprising. It does build suspension and makes it all the more powerful when she does show her face near the end of the clip. | |

Battle Theme Music | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_e08fcc99 | comment |
Battle Theme Music: Every boss in the Subspace Emissary mode uses a tense, dramatic theme from the universe they're representing (in the case of Ridley and Meta Ridley, it's their flagship battle theme from the Metroid series). Since Duon and Galleom are original bosses, they share a Boss Remix of the game's main theme instead. Tabuu, another original boss and the last one in the mode, uses a completely new theme. | |

Training Dummy: In addition to reprising this role in Home-Run Contest like in Melee, the Sandbag now appears as an item in other modes, where it functions like a piñata and will drop items when beaten up. It also appears in some of the Wi-Fi waiting rooms and while you can technically defeat it by smacking it out of bounds or eating it with Wario, Kirby, or King Dedede, a replacement will appear immediately. You get trophies for kicking around the computer player in training mode. | |

Dub Name Change | |

More from the Italian translation of Brawl: for some reason, the translators made up new Italian names for the characters from Panel de Pon and Drill Dozer (which were never released in Europe) in the sticker list. The odd part comes when you get the Lip sticker and she is renamed "Fiorella"... yet Lip's Stick is still called "Bacchetta di Lip" and not "Bacchetta di Fiorella"! | |

Family-Friendly Firearms: It was specifically said that Solid Snake could not use guns... but his rocket launcher, mortar, grenades, and land mines are all goodnote though the mines were changed to a less realistic design in development. This may have also been for gameplay reasons though, since a projectile that moves almost instantly (like Sheik's needles) that you could fire almost constantly would be really cheap. | |

Greek Chorus: Along with the aforementioned Corneria calls, the Lylat Cruise stage has a similar sequence that can be performed by Fox, Falco, and Wolf. This is retained in for Wii U and Ultimate. On Shadow Moses Island, Snake can contact Mei Ling, Otacon, or Colonel Roy Campbell (or Slippy Toad) via codec for information on each specific fighter. Though this is retained in Ultimate, only the fighters that appeared in Brawl have calls due to the death of Roy Campbell's Japanese voice actor in 2012; fighters added in for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U or later, as well as fighters that were present in Melee but absent from Brawlnote Mewtwo, Pichu, Roy, Dr. Mario, and Young Link, will get no response. | |

He also does it briefly for a taunt in gameplay. King Dedede gets one when Kirby suddenly appears on the trophy carrier he's driving. Given their relationship, this one borders on Oh, Crap!. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_e5d37e0f | comment |
Divergent Character Evolution: The characters that were clones in Melee got more of this to the point that there are no true clones in Brawl, thus there are only semi-clones. Giga Bowser, as Bowser's Final Smash, had all of the same moves, just made significantly more powerful. In for 3DS/Wii U, Bowser has been redesigned to be closer to his appearance in the main Mario series, with many of his moves changed to make him less bestial and more agile; Giga Bowser, on the other hand, remains exactly the same as in Brawl, the contrast further accentuating his monstrous, feral nature. | |

The Maze: The Great Maze, which is the final level. Be thankful you have an auto-mapping feature, as unlike most other mazes you have to explore every nook and cranny and kill every copy character and boss to open the way to the final battle. Once you complete the map, though, you realize it was incredibly simple the whole time. It's a single contiguous loop with a multitude of dead-end "branches", making it essentially impossible to actually get lost. | |

By the eighth stage (of 31), there's already five lines: Mario and Pit, Kirby and Peach/Zelda (depending on who you rescued in the first level), Diddy Kong and Fox (as Donkey Kong was hauled off by Bowser earlier), Lucas and Pokémon Trainer, and Meta Knight, Marth, and Ike. | |

RPG Elements: Unlike the Trophies, the Stickers do serve a gameplay purpose, and it's by way of this trope. There's a blank space menu where the player can place stickers, whose size and shape also introduce an Inventory Management Puzzle factor. The stickers boost stats and attributes to the characters that are being used in the campaign, though they have no effect in the other game modes. | |

The Battle Didn't Count: Galleom does this twice in a row. The first time, Ike, Marth, and Meta Knight deplete its health, but even its losing animation shows that its not done for. It opts to leave the area and ends up facing Lucas and the Pokemon Trainer immediately afterwards, and is at full health when that second fight begins. Galleom only falls when it activates the Subspace Bomb in its body, like it was meant to do so in the first place. | |

Wall Jump: In the absence of Pichu, Pikachu can wall-jump now. Zero Suit Samus (but not regular Samus) was also added. However, wall jumps have diminishing gains in altitude until your feet hit something reasonably horizontal. This goes for everyone now. Just give Lucario a single wall as tall as you want, and he can go from bottom to top in a matter of seconds. Squirtle, Lucario, Diddy Kong, and Sheik have the extra ability to stick to walls. | |

Lucario's Glass Cannon status is highlighted more in this game where his Aura properly forces him to deal a lot of damage at low health while at the same time makes him more vulnerable to being knocked out of the stage easily with very simple attacks. Even at full health, Lucario still gets beaten up around the stage easily. | |

Early-Bird Cameo | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_f0089082 | comment |
Early-Bird Cameo: Wario's victory theme is the first level theme in Wario Land: Shake It!, which was released six months later. The Gekko from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and a remix of the game's "Theme of Love" both appeared in this game, which in some regions was out months before the former game was even released. For that matter, the entire Shadow Moses Island stage is a reference to an entire chapter in the game. Interestingly enough, MGS 4 is a PS3-exclusive game, meaning a first-party Nintendo game is promoting a game not available on a Nintendo system. | |

Boss Remix: The music on the Final Destination stage (where, as the name implies, the final battle takes place in Classic mode) is a Boss Remix of the title theme. The Boss Rush battle theme is a remix of Melee's menu theme. It's not as intense as the Melee Battlefield's own boss remix of the theme, though. One of the alternate songs on the Final Destination stage is a boss remix of Melee's opening theme. Cruel Brawl has its own boss remix of Brawl's main theme, only played in that mode. This theme returns in 3DS/Wii U as the Cruel Smashnote The game's equivalent to Cruel Brawl theme. | |

Boss Tease: A meta-example - Snake & Sonic were massively hyped up for the release of Super Smash Bros Brawl, but they had to be unlocked in-game, and two out of three methods for doing so involved fighting them for the privilege. And a subversion in-game - Snake appears very early on in a brief cutscene, during which you see his cardboard box shake a little bit. It's not until much later in the story that you encounter him properly, unlocking him for gameplay. | |

Mercy Mode | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_f363694e | comment |
Mercy Mode: Starting in this game, where Final Smashes were first introduced, the series will randomly dole out "pity/easy Final Smashes" to players who are losing quite badly (i.e., at least five points behind the leader), respawning them after a KO with one ready to go. In Brawl, even if the item frequency is set to "none", this can still kick in unless Smash Balls specifically have been turned off, making a planned-out long match go sour. In Smash 4 onwards this is fixed, in addition to no longer activating in 1v1 matches. | |

Franchise Codifier: The game majorly defined the games that came after it. It introduced Final Smashes, Assist Trophies, stage building, third-party characters, and online play, all of which have remained series mainstays since. The game's UI and style also carried over into subsequent installments. Brawl also became the first game in the series to employ an in-game chart of achievements, usually grouped in rows and columns, for the player to know what actions or feats can be done while playing the game in its various modes to receive unique rewards (a trophy, a song, a stage, or more rarely a playable demo). | |

There's King Dedede going around, seemingly a villain, "trophy-fying" heroes and taking them, seemingly on the same villainous side as Wario. Until he robs him. Then it seems that Dedede just wants to have his own private collection of trophies of the heroes, complete with dressing them up with odd badges, screwing around with the mission at hand (and something Dedede, at his most annoying, would plausibly have done). Until, way at the end it turns out the badges Dedede put on them were time release resurrectors, and it was Dedede's plan all along to, in case the heroes failed, save them with his own backup squad. | |

Video-Game Lives: The mode has a unique take on this. In most stages, players form a party using the characters they unlock. When one character dies, the next character in the party takes their place, and so on until the last character dies. There is also a unique item in "Subspace Emissary" that replenishes lives, so that if the last character in the player's party dies, the first character returns. In Team Battles, if a player loses all their lives, they can "share" one from their teammate to continue. | |

Big, Thin, Short Trio: Towards the end of the game, you are given a party of the bulky penguin King Dedede, Mario's skinny brother Luigi, and the young boy Ness. | |

Leap of Faith | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_fbcdeede | comment |
Leap of Faith: In one area (The Path To The Ruins) there is a series of what seem like narrow, bottomless pits, but one of them actually leads to a door hiding one of the item boxes necessary for 100% Completion. The correct pit can be found in front of a Borboras, but if you don't know it's there, you'll likely panic and try to avoid being pushed down it. In the last part of the mode, the Great Maze, there are a few new areas. One of them is a wooden area based on a past one, which ends with two bottomless pits, only one of which will actually kill you. The other leads to a necessary battle. Since they are so close together, the map won't tell you if you're too far off from the door in question, and you scroll down with both. However, although it's incredibly obvious which one is the deadly one when it scrolls down, at that point you are too far down to do anything about it but struggle until losing a life. Luckily those lives can be quickly replenished. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: The beginning of the ruined zoo in Subspace Emissary has the Porky Statue from Mother 3, which cannot be defeated... well, technically not. Without cheating, using Smash hacks, or somehow changing his absurdly massive HP, you can and will never manage to deal nearly enough damage to it to break it. Instead, Ness destroys it once you manage to get to the end of its chase and you then fight Porky himself. | |

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_fc33ff16 | comment |
One-Winged Angel: Tabuu, The Man Behind the Man (behind the other men), transforms into a winged version of himself that can transform the heroes back into trophies. But then Sonic the Hedgehog comes and damages both of his wings, thus weaking his power to just an instant KO. | |

PG Explosives: This was actually cited as the reason Snake got a lot of explosive weapons but no simple guns in this game; explosions are sillier. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: Ness never stops smiling, even when he is kicking the crap out of The Porky Statue when it threatens Lucas. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max | |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Video Game) / int_fe262584 | comment |
Cutscene Power to the Max: Characters often perform actions in cutscenes that aren't possible in gameplay: Sheik takes out an Arwing by teleporting onto its canopy and putting her fist through the glass of the cockpit windshield. There's also an instance of Captain Falcon taking out a giant ROB with a single flying punch. In The Subspace Emissary, right before Tabuu turns everyone into a trophy again, Sonic appears and smashes his wings with incredible speed and power. In gameplay, Sonic's adjusted like the other fighters. | |

Perpetual Molt: The game subjects Pit to this trope. Every time he flies, he seems to lose a ton of feathers. But he's using a magic one (the move was based off a powerup from Kid Icarus) so that's okay. | |
