The {{s|pikipedia|Hocotate ship}} will suddenly appear and the background will change to a starry night sky. The same ship appears if [[Alph]] is being used despite Alph using a different ship named the {{s|pikipedia|S.S. Drake}} in his home series. Olimar will quickly enter the ship and fly away, and the Pikmin stay behind. All opponents close enough to the ship upon activation will be [[buried]], and all opponents outside the bury radius can still move for the duration of the Final Smash. The [[camera]] will follow Olimar's ascent into space and then fixate on the sky mostly above the upper [[blast line]], causing players to struggle to see what they are doing. The ship will automatically steer towards the center of the stage no matter where the attack was initiated. The ship has a [[meteor smash]] effect if it hits a foe in midair upon ascent. It is therefore possible to use of End of Day to [[edgeguard]] by intercepting recovering enemies with the ship; this is also virtually impossible to meteor cancel. Pausing the match during the attack will not allow the use of regular pause camera controls; the camera will remain fixed.

While the ship is suspended in the air, several [[Bulborb]]s can be seen attacking the opponents off-screen. The Bulborbs deal a small amount of damage (0.358333%{{GameIcon|Brawl}}/0.125%{{GameIcon|SSB4}}/0.1875%{{GameIcon|Ultimate}}), but deal that damage every [[frame]] for 120{{GameIcon|Brawl}}{{GameIcon|SSB4}}/{{rollover|81|parameter is actually 80 but there are 81 hits in practice|?}}{{GameIcon|Ultimate}} frames, resulting in a maximum of 43%{{GameIcon|Brawl}}/15%{{GameIcon|SSB4}}/15.1875%{{GameIcon|Ultimate}}. The background then returns to normal as the ship falls back down to the stage and explodes, dealing massive damage and knockback to all opponents within range of the explosion. While the ship in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' only falls straight down and falls fins first, ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' introduced the ship falling nose first while on fire and the player being able to steer the ship while it is falling.
While the ship is suspended in the air, several [[Bulborb]]s can be seen attacking the opponents off-screen, dealing large amounts of damage. The Bulborb models created (only one in ''Brawl'', two in ''SSB4'') are an on-screen overlay similar to [[Peach Blossom]] and simply bob up and down at the bottom of the screen while the opponents take steady damage. The background then returns to normal as the ship falls back down to the stage and explodes, dealing massive damage and knockback to all opponents within range of the explosion. While the ship in ''Brawl'' only falls straight down and falls fins first, ''Smash 4'' introduced the ship falling nose first while on fire and the player being able to steer the ship while it is falling.


When finishing the move, the explosion from the crashing ship sends Olimar shooting up to the top of the screen in a state similar to [[helpless]]ness (it uses the [[tumbling]] animation, but he cannot perform any attacks until he touches solid ground, just like when he is helpless). Olimar cannot [[tech]] on the floor after he tumbles out of his ship. Until Olimar lands from this jump, the Pikmin will not move to him and he cannot perform [[Pikmin Order]]. Opponents that have survived the attack can then have an opportunity to kill Pikmin quickly before they react.

All damage from End of Day can be avoided by characters with high vertical recovery like [[Pit]] and [[R.O.B.]] or characters with multiple midair jumps such as [[Kirby]] and [[Jigglypuff]] by allowing them to stay within range of the camera (avoiding [[hoop damage]]) when it tilts upward as well as allowing them to avoid the entire length of the Bulborb attacks. However, the camera may make it difficult to tell if the character will land on the ground or not, or if they will be in the range of the ship's attack when it falls. These characters must also avoid touching Olimar's ship at the sky above the upper blast line or they will be star [[KO]]'d automatically. Other characters can also partially dodge the Final Smash by [[sidestepping]] constantly.
All damage from End of Day can be avoided by characters with high vertical recovery like {{SSBB|Pit}}, {{SSBB|R.O.B.}}, and {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} or characters with multiple midair jumps such as {{SSBB|Kirby}}, {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}, and {{SSBB|King Dedede}} by allowing them to stay within range of the camera (avoiding [[hoop damage]]) when it pans upward as well as allowing them to avoid the entire length of the Bulborb attacks. However, the camera may make it difficult to tell if the character will land on the ground or not, or if they will be in the range of the ship's attack when it falls. These characters must also avoid touching Olimar's ship at the sky above the upper blast line or they will be star [[KO]]'d automatically. Other characters can also partially dodge the Final Smash by [[sidestepping]] constantly, provided they were not buried before the Bulborbs attack. In [[Mushroomy Kingdom]] 1-2 (the underground version), a player on the top layer of blocks can also avoid the Bulborbs.


Certain stages (such as custom stages) will cause Olimar to [[self-destruct]] after using this Final Smash; since the ship will always fall in the center of the stage, it will drop right through if there is no platform in the middle (similar to Ike's [[Great Aether]]). This can happen in [[Bridge of Eldin]] and just before the loop in [[Mushroomy Kingdom]] 1-2 (In ''Brawl'', this will probably not actually count as an SD due to ''Brawl''{{'}}s KO-allotting system). In ''Smash 4'', this can notably happen in Olimar's home stage, [[Garden of Hope]], due to the collapsible bridge in the middle. The adjustments made in ''SSB4'' mitigate this due to allowing the player to control the descent of the ship, and ''Ultimate'' further alleviates the issue by having Olimar land off-center in certain stages, again like Great Aether. However, this introduces a new opportunity to self-destruct by over shooting and falling through a gap on the sides of a stage, either with the ship itself or in the pseudo-helpless state.

End of Day is one of the four Final Smashes that can affect a team player with Team Attack turned off prior to ''Ultimate'', and the only Final Smash to do so in ''Ultimate'', a trait shared with [[Landmaster]], [[Puff Up]], and [[Galaxia Darkness]] (''Brawl'' only) prior to that game. This is solely because of the hoop damage caused when the screen moves away from the main stage. Teammates will be affected at a much smaller interval than opponents, though. As the hoop damage is the only ally damage involved, End of Day can only KO an ally when in [[Stamina Mode]]. Like Landmaster, this will not count as a self-destruct.

The confirmation of the move at {{SSBB|Smash Bros. DOJO!!}} stated that if more fighters are present, the move does more damage. On the other hand, if more fighters are dueling when this Final Smash is initiated, then there is more of a chance that the fighters would steal Olimar's [[KO]]s. [[Masahiro Sakurai]] stated that this was to balance the move out. However, the wording of the statement partially implies that the damage dealt to each opponent depends on the number of opponents, where in actuality the damage to each opponent is constant, and it simply deals more damage in total when all opponents are considered.

In ''Ultimate'', End of Day is bugged when used on [[Training stage]]. The camera does not follow the ship and does not shift the blast line by extenstion. While the bulborbs appear as normal, they deal no damage as there are no characters below the blast line. This implies that the bulborbs do not have an actual [[hitbox]] and the steady damage dealt is based on the location of the characters.

|desc=Olimar's Final Smash. Dusk falls, and his spaceship makes a landing. Olimar takes the Onion, with all his Pikmin aboard, and blasts off for the stars. In Pikmin, native life-forms grew active and violent at night, making it lethal to remain on the surface--this is why Olimar would take his Onions and leave at night. This technique breaks the framework of the game.

[[File:End of Day origin.png|thumb|left|The end of a day in ''Pikmin 2''.]]
{{SSBB|Olimar}}'s Final Smash originates from ''{{iw|pikipedia|Pikmin|game}}'' on the [[Nintendo]] [[GameCube]], where at the end of each day, Olimar will have to gather up his army and then fly off into the atmosphere in his ship, the S.S. Dolphin, along with the Pikmin [[Onion]]s. If any Pikmin are left behind, they are eaten by predators on the surface. The spaceship used by Olimar in ''Brawl'', known as the Hocotate Ship, is taken from ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', and the landing could possibly be a reference to the S.S. Dolphin crashing at the beginning of or during the bad ending of ''Pikmin''.
