Editing Golden Hammer

The Golden Hammer made its appearance in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Wrecking Crew|Wrecking Crew}}'' as a stronger, golden variation of a normal hammer. It can be acquired by swinging the player's hammer a number of times, adding the stage number, dividing it by eight and then leaving a remainder of one. When used, it allows the player to swing faster, easily demolish walls with a single hit, and attack enemies and send them to the bottom of the screen. When it appears, it is accompanied by a short tune. When it is acquired, it is accompanied by a unique [[List of SSBU Music (Other_series)#Power-Up Music - Wrecking_Crew|power-up theme]].

Similar to how the Hammer can lose its head, the Golden Hammer also has the chance to backfire on its wielder. In one case, the Golden Hammer will become the '''Golden Squeaky Hammer''' ({{ja|ゴルデンピコピコハンマー|Goruden Pikopiko Hanmā}}, ''Golden Squeaky Hammer''), which allows the fighters to float, but it does not inflict any damage or knockback to opponents; instead, it produces a squeaking noise upon striking them. Unusually, [[counter]]s can still activate if hit by the Golden Squeaky Hammer, and in ''[[Smash 4]]'', Golden Squeaky Hammers that are dropped and recaught have a chance of turning into regular ones.

Unlocking specific challenges will give players access to Golden Hammers to break other [[Challenge]] boxes. Each Golden Hammer can only be used once, and in the 3DS version of ''Smash 4'', they can only be used on the grid section they have been unlocked on. Using the Golden Hammer allows the player to attain any rewards from the box without having to meet (or do) its unlock criteria for the two boxes next to it as usual. When a Golden Hammer is used once on a challenge, it's permanently erased from the player's Golden Hammer total and can't be unlocked again.  

In ''[[Ultimate]]'', new Golden Hammers are unlocked as challenges are completed. They still cannot break some challenges related to [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], or the more difficult challengers on the other challenge pages.

The Golden Hammer Trophy can be obtained by hitting a combined distance of 15,000m (45,000 ft) with all fighters' [[Home-Run Contest]] records.

 

''A hammer that glows with golden light. It's easier to swing than a normal hammer, and more powerful too. If you tilt the [[Control Stick]] and press the attack button repeatedly, you float in midair. It's a very powerful item, but one that rarely appears. There's also a Golden Squeaky Hammer that does absolutely no damage at all. It's what you would call a fake.''

{{flag|ntsc}}''This special hammer is several times stronger than the regular hammer. While wielding it, jumping repeatedly will let you float in the air. It doesn't appear often, so grab it when it does! However, watch out for the squeaky version. It looks like the normal one but is really useless.''

 

{{flag|pal}}''This special hammer is much stronger than the normal one. And on top of that, it has a special ability - press the jump button repeatedly while holding it to float in the air. These things don't show up often, though, so if you see one, grab it fast! Just watch out for the Golden Squeaky Hammers - they look the same, but do exactly zero damage.''
