The beehive (known as a wasp nest starting with ''{{s|nookipedia|New Horizons}}'') originates from the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} games, and it is present in every installment of the series. Beehives occasionally fall out of oak and cedar {{s|nookipedia|trees}} when shaken. When one falls out, it hits the ground and a swarm of bees (called wasps in ''New Horizons'') chase the [[Villager]]. If the Villager does not quickly go inside a building or catch a bee with a net, he or she gets stung, and given a swollen eye that must either be treated with medicine or heals on its own when the player quits the game and starts again in games prior to ''New Horizons'', or wait until the day resets at 5:00 AM in ''New Horizons''. This situation is similar to the behavior of real {{iw|wikipedia|bee}}s, who will also emerge as a swarm from their damaged {{iw|wikipedia|beehive}} and attack and sting the threat to said hive. In addition, should the Villager get attacked again by another beehive before being treated for the first attack, they'll pass out and spawn in front of their house. It wasn't until ''{{s|nookipedia|New Leaf}}'' that the player was able to pick up a beehive afterwards, as they simply disappeared in previous installments. In ''New Horizons'', it's possible to use a beehive (wasp nest) for {{s|nookipedia|DIY}} projects including crafting medicine to treat the sting.

Coincidentally, beehives also exist in the {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}} series and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}'', with similar behaviour.

The beehive is an item that can be attacked, or picked up and thrown. Upon being hit or being thrown and hitting an opponent or terrain, a swarm of bees will emerge from it which will target a single player, following them around the stage; the beehive itself disappears after the bees emerge. There is also a 1/4 chance that a beehive will naturally break open instead of disappearing.  
The beehive is an item that can be attacked, or picked up and thrown. Upon being hit, or being thrown and hitting an opponent or terrain, a swarm of bees will emerge from it which will target a single player, following them around the stage; the beehive itself disappears after the bees emerge.


The target of the bees depends on how the beehive was activated. If a thrown beehive hits an opponent, that opponent will be the target. If it hits terrain, the target will be the opponent nearest to the beehive. If the beehive itself was attacked, the target will be the attacker of the beehive. If there is no opponent present, the bees from a thrown beehive will immediately disappear.

If there is no opponent present, the bees from a thrown beehive will immediately disappear.


The swarm will deal 3% [[damage]] when it is traveling to a target and when it ends, dealing the damage to any opponent in its path. The swarm attacks every 75 frames (1.25 seconds), dealing 3.5% damage and causing flinching, only affecting the target. The bees will remain active for 10 seconds chasing their target, and cannot be [[reflected]], [[shield]]ed against (targeted hits only, traveling hits can be shielded), or destroyed with the exception of [[item-swallowing]] (though only if they are eaten before their first attack). The bees' attacks can be dodged with a [[roll]], [[sidestep]], or [[airdodge]]. In ''Smash 4'', opponents receive 6 frames of [[hitlag]] on the targeted hits and in ''Ultimate'' they receive 30 frames (the maximum possible).
The swarm attacks approximately every two seconds, dealing 2-4% [[damage]] and causing flinching. The bees will remain active for 10 seconds chasing their target, and cannot be [[reflected]], [[shield]]ed against or destroyed, with the exception of [[item-swallowing]] (though only if they are eaten before their first attack). The bees' attacks can be dodged with a [[roll]], [[sidestep]] or [[airdodge]].


While often simply a nuisance, the knockback caused by the bees can interrupt attacks and movement options of the victim, making them easier to hit, especially in ''Ultimate'' where the hitlag lasts a very long time. However, this can be beneficial to recovery, as the bees' attacks can flinch the player out of [[helplessness]] repeatedly; a notable example comes from {{SSB4|Little Mac}}, who can repeatedly use [[Rising Uppercut]] and significantly improve his recovery.
While often simply a nuisance, the low hitstun caused by the bees can interrupt attacks and movement options of the victim, making them easier to hit. However, this can be beneficial to recovery, as the bees' attacks can flinch the player out of [[helplessness]] repeatedly; a notable example comes from {{SSB4|Little Mac}}, who can repeatedly use [[Rising Uppercut]] and significantly improve his recovery.
 
In ''Ultimate'', the bees generated from a beehive attack at a much slower interval, but also cause significantly more hitstun on hit.
 
Rarely, due to a bug, a Beehive may break without any interaction from players.

*The bees' targeted hitbox has a hitlag multiplier of 15, among the highest in any ''Smash'' game.
**For unknown reasons, the hitlag multiplier is seemingly ignored in ''Smash 4''. This results in only 6 frames of hitlag compared to ''Ulitmate''{{'}}s 30, despite the hitboxes in both games being identical.
