There are many ways to achieve intangibility. Many universal actions such as [[spot dodge]], roll, edge grab, the shield breaking process, among others have intangibility.

Many universal actions such as [[spot dodge]], roll, edge grab, the shield breaking process, among others have intangibility. Certain attacks also possess intangibility, either full body or only specific [[hitbox]]es. While a character is intangible, attacks will simply not affect them, as if they were not there at all. Since the character is not hit, a long-lasting attack (or very short intangibility time) may still hit the character once it ends. This state can be incredibly useful, as it can be used to dodge attacks and make a retreat or capitalize on a reckless opponent and [[punish]] them. Some attacks intentionally make certain body parts intangible in order to make the attack guaranteed to connect without trading with the opponent. | ||
Intangibility does have a somewhat niche downside in that on the [[Planet Zebes]], [[Brinstar]], and [[Norfair]] [[stage]]s, intangible characters will fall straight through the stage's lower hazard rather than sustaining damage and bouncing back up, causing an otherwise preventable [[KO]]. They may occasionally also be KO'd if they are standing on the track on [[Mute City (SSBM)]], [[Port Town Aero Dive]] or [[Mute City SNES]]. In ''Smash 4'', Master Giant's "glowing hands" attack also completely ignores any form of intangibility as well as invincibility (including respawn). | Intangibility does have a somewhat niche downside in that on the [[Planet Zebes]], [[Brinstar]], and [[Norfair]] [[stage]]s, intangible characters will fall straight through the stage's lower hazard rather than sustaining damage and bouncing back up, causing an otherwise preventable [[KO]].
