| | '''Judge''' is a move that can be performed by [[Mr. Game & Watch]]. By using his [[Side Special Move]], Mr. Game & Watch will attack with his hammer and hold up a card with a number on it. Despite being known as '''Judgement''' in his ''Melee'' trophy data, it was changed for his update on the ''DOJO''!! to match the name of the source game. |

| '''Judge''' ({{ja|ジャッジ|Jajji}}, ''Judge'') (known as '''Judgment''' in ''Melee'') is [[Mr. Game & Watch]]'s [[side special move]]. Mr. Game & Watch will attack with his hammer and hold up a digital display with a random number on it when used.
| | The effects are as follows: |
|
| |
|
| In all of the games Mr. Game & Watch has appeared in leading up to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', he retained his normal sprite when using the move. In ''Ultimate'', his appearance was changed to resemble the characters in the ''Judge'' game from the ''Game & Watch'' series. | | *'''1''' - Attack strength: 2%. An attack that won’t even cause your opponent to flinch. In Brawl this causes 12% damage to Mr. Game & Watch, regardless of whether the attack connects with an opponent, and regardless of stale-move negation. |
| | *'''2''' - Attack strength: 4%. A weak attack without any special characteristics. |
| | *'''3''' - Attack strength: 6%. An attack with a beam sound that pierces defenses. |
| | *'''4''' - Attack strength: 8%. A slashing attack that launches opponents diagonally. |
| | *'''5''' - Attack strength: 12%. Four electrical charges zap the opponent making them rise (each hit does 3%). |
| | *'''6''' - Attack strength: 12%. A flame attack with good horizontal knockback. |
| | *'''7''' - Attack strength: 14%. Deals decent damage. A food item will also appear in honor of the lucky #7. In Brawl, this item is invariably an apple. |
| | *'''8''' - Attack strength: 9%. An attack that freezes foes. Take advantage of the opening to attack again. |
| | *'''9''' - Attack strength: 32%. A massive attack. Its knockback is almost equivelant to a [[home-run bat|home-run bat's]]. Heavy characters can sometimes survive it at very low percentages (0%-5%). |

| ==Numbers and their effects==
| | The chance of getting higher numbers are slimmer than getting lower numbers. |
| The number that can be displayed as the move is used is a random number from 1 to 9, like in the original game. In order to add variance, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Mr. Game & Watch cannot get a number that was used in either of the two previous uses of the move, meaning each valid number has a 1 in 7 chance of appearing. For example, getting a 5 means that the next two uses of Judge cannot result in a 5. At the start of a match and after each respawn, the previous two uses are set to 1 and 2, meaning that the first use of Judge in a match cannot be a 1, and the first two uses cannot be a 2. | |
|
| |
|
| In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', this behavior is removed, allowing any number to always have a 1 in 9 chance of appearing and making it possible to get a number any number of times in a row. Getting a 1 in the All-Star Mode's Waiting Room does not cause recoil damage. In addition, in the [[Home-Run Contest]] and [[Target Blast]] modes, the move always comes up as 6, removing randomness but making it impossible for the player to use 9 to their advantage.
| | ==Origins== |
| | | ''Judge'' was a [[Game and Watch (universe)|''Game & Watch'' game]] that could be played with two players. Two ''Game & Watch'' characters had signboards and hammers. When a round starts, each player's sign would display a random number from 1 to 9. The point of the game was for the player with the higher number to hit his opponent on the head with their hammer, while the player with the lower number tried to dodge said attack. If the numbers were equal, the player can either hit or dodge. |
| In ''Ultimate'', it is once again impossible to get the same number twice in a row, but it is still possible to get the same number every other roll. In addition, if the player is the lowest-ranked player in a match (has half or fewer stocks or points than any other player<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AyyfAvqMbo&t=170s The Hidden Mechanics of Game & Watch's JUDGE — Random Smash Ultimate Facts]</ref>), there is a 50% chance of getting a 9 in the last 5 seconds of the match, though this will not bypass the inability to get the same number twice in a row. If this 50% check doesn't succeed, the standard roll will occur, which may result in a 9 regardless, making the effective likelihood of getting a 9 roughly 56%.<ref>https://twitter.com/Meshima_/status/1356748433034477570</ref>

In every game after ''Melee'', the attack is accompanied by a bell sound like that in Mr. Game & Watch's up and side taunts. Flashes of light resembling electrical effects appear around the hammer when this number appears, but the attack does not do electric damage. It is one of the most powerful attacks in the game that isn't a Final Smash, only losing to Ganondorf's Reverse Warlock Punch and Roy/Chrom's fully charged [[Flare Blade]].

| {{CustomSet|GameWatch|Side|name1=Judge|desc1=Swing your hammer. The power changes depending on the number displayed.|name2=Extreme Judge|desc2= Only "1" or "9" will appear, but the latter isn't quite as devastating as usual.|name3=Chain Judge|desc3=The number shown on the card equals the number of continuous hits dealt.}}
| |
| # '''Judge''': Default.
| |
| # '''Extreme Judge''': The only numbers picked are 1 and 9, with more normalized effects for each. 1 deals 5% damage to both Mr. Game & Watch and the opponent, while 9 only deals 23% damage and less (though still significant) knockback. The odds of getting a 9 are 1 in 5 (20%). If the move is used in one of the modes that forces the number to always be 6, it has the same effects as the default version of the move.
| |
| # '''Chain Judge''': None of the numbers have different effects on the opponent. Instead, the move hits several times, corresponding with the chosen number. In addition, some numbers are more common than others, as opposed to the default move's equal probability for all numbers.

| ==Spirit==
| |
| Judge also appears as an Ace-class [[support spirit]].
| |
| | |
| In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], Judge is presumably one of the countless spirits captured by [[Galeem]] during his takeover of the universe. After Galeem's defeat, [[Dharkon]] takes control of Galeem's spirits, including Judge. Judge's spirit is located in the northern section of [[The Light Realm]].
| |
| | |
| Judge uses an army of {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} puppet fighters and is fought on the [[Flat Zone X]] stage. During the battle, Mr. Game & Watch favors Judge, which serves as his side special.

| ==Origin==
| |
| [[File:JudgeOrigin.jpg|thumb|The ''Judge Game & Watch''.]]
| |
| ''Judge'' is a {{uv|Game & Watch}} game released on October 4, 1980 as part of the Silver series. This is the first ''Game & Watch'' title built for simultaneous multiplayer, and can be played with 1-2 players. Two ''Game & Watch'' characters have signboards and hammers. When a round starts, each player's sign displays a random number from 1 to 9. The point of the game is for the player with the higher number to hit their opponent on the head with their hammer, while the player with the lower number tries to dodge said hit. If the numbers are equal, the player can either hit or dodge. This was translated in ''Smash'' to where the higher the number, the stronger or better the attack.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In ''Ultimate'', during the startup of Judge, numbers will rapidly flash up on the sign before stopping on the selected number. However the numbers that flash up are not completely random, as the numbers from 1-9 are flashed in a random order for the first 9 frames of the animation, and then the numbers are cycled through in the same order for the remainder of the startup. This does not affect how the final number is selected.
| |
| *If one of the [[Stadium]] games appears on a ticket in [[Master Orders]], custom moves can be used there, something that is not normally possible. However if Extreme Judge is used, it will be changed to the standard variation and still land on a 6. It is the only custom move to do this.
| |
| *''Judge'' is the only multiplayer ''Game & Watch'' game to be represented in Mr. Game & Watch's moveset.
| |
| *Judge is the only one of Mr. Game & Watch's special moves to not be represented in [[Flat Zone 2]] and [[Flat Zone X]].
| |
| *In the original ''Game & Watch'' game, the number 7 displays with the F segment lit (i.e. with a hook at the top left); it has a different rendition without the F segment in ''Smash''.
