A '''Dark Cannon''' ({{ja|ダークキャノン|Dāku Kyanon}}, ''Dark Cannon'') is a powerful weapon of the [[Subspace Army]]. This large and bulky raygun-like weapon vaguely resembles a black draconic head and has the power to reduce a [[fighter]] to their [[trophy]] form in a single shot.


After a somewhat lengthy charging period, in which the barrel of the weapon glows orange, it fires a thick and black arrow-shaped beam that instantly reduces any fighter it hits to their trophy forms. The shots mainly move in straight lines but can curve slightly in seemingly random directions; should a shot hit something that is not a fighter, it will cause an explosion. Once initially charged up, Dark Cannons can proceed to fire multiple shots in quick succession; the charge time needed seems to lengthen the longer it goes without firing.

Despite its potentially high rate of fire and fast shot speed, Dark Cannons are not very hard to dodge if the target is aware; in fact, the only times the weapon is seen connecting is on targets that are incapacitated or ambushed. They can also only affect one target at a time - once a shot connects, it quickly vanishes after it pierces through the target. As a result, the victim must be quickly taken away from their partners through a very fast escape path such as the [[Koopa Clown Car]] to prevent an easy revival. Dark Cannons are also large and unwieldy; they are too heavy for anyone to carry and aim without support.


In [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]], Dark Cannons are provided to the accomplices of the Subspace Army. {{SSBB|Wario}} uses his to capture either {{SSBB|Peach}} or {{SSBB|Zelda}} from the [[Midair Stadium]], followed by {{SSBB|Ness}} at [[The Ruined Zoo]]. {{SSBB|Bowser}} uses his to capture {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}} and whichever princess Wario did not get; shortly afterwards, [[false character|a doppelgänger]] of this princess attempts to use the weapon on either {{SSBB|Mario}} and {{SSBB|Pit}} or {{SSBB|Link}} and {{SSBB|Yoshi}} as the pair passes by [[The Lake Shore]], but is thwarted by the other pair, who destroy the Dark Cannon. Bowser then procures another Dark Cannon and attempts to capture {{SSBB|Fox}} and {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}}, but {{SSBB|Falco}} interrupts him and destroys the weapon with several [[Blaster]] shots. Finally, after the [[Subspace Gunship]] is destroyed, {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} uses his Dark Cannon to remove Bowser from the picture in his attempt to seize control of the Army.
After a somewhat lengthy charging period, in which the "mouth" of the weapon glows orange, it fires a thick, black arrow-shaped beam that instantly turns any character it hits into a trophy. The shots mainly move in straight lines but can curve slightly in seemingly random directions; should a shot hit something that cannot be turned into a trophy, it will cause an explosion. Once initially charged up, Dark Cannons can proceed to fire multiple shots in quick succession; the charge time needed seems to lengthen the longer it goes without firing.

Dark Cannons are also large and unwieldy; they are too heavy for a normal human to carry, so only those of above-average strength can use one properly.

In the Subspace Emissary, Dark Cannons are provided to the field Smasher accomplices of the Subspace Army: {{SSBB|Wario}} and {{SSBB|Bowser}}. Wario used his to capture either {{SSBB|Peach}} or {{SSBB|Zelda}} from the [[Midair Stadium]], followed by {{SSBB|Ness}} at [[The Ruined Zoo]]. Bowser used his to capture {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}} and whichever princess Wario did not get; shortly afterwards, a [[false character|false version]] of this princess attempted to use the weapon on either {{SSBB|Mario}} and {{SSBB|Pit}} or {{SSBB|Link}} and {{SSBB|Yoshi}} as the pair passed by [[The Lake Shore]], but was thwarted by the other pair destroying the weapon in a single sword slash. Bowser then procured another Dark Cannon and attempted to get {{SSBB|Fox}} and {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}}, but {{SSBB|Falco}} interrupted him and destroyed the weapon with several [[Blaster]] shots. Finally, after the [[Subspace Gunship]] is destroyed, {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} uses a Dark Cannon to remove Bowser from the picture in his attempt to seize power of the Army.
