Editing List of meteor smashes (SSB4)

{{ArticleIcons|ssb4=yes}}
{{tocright}}
This is a list of '''[[meteor smash]]es''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

Characters who have an attack with a meteor smash hitbox are listed here, along with each attack. As the exact numerical distinction between "meteor smash" and "[[spike]]" is currently unknown, this page assumes that ''Brawl''{{'}}s range of 230-310 is at least similar. This list does not include [[unconventional meteor smash]]es.

It is worth mentioning that [[meteor cancel]]ling has been removed in ''SSB4.'' As such, all meteor smashes in the game are functionally equivalent to spikes. 

<!--PSA: Any looping hits of a down aerial (i.e. Yoshi's, Wario's, etc.) are unconventional meteor smashes, and do NOT go on this list.-->

==={{SSB4|Ganondorf}}===
*Down aerial - Meteor smashes if the sweetspot in Ganondorf's legs/feet connects. It is the strongest meteor smash in the game, being capable of KOing grounded opponents under 120%, even less with rage.

*[[Flame Choke]] and Flame Wave - If the move's grab connects in the air, a stall-then-fall grab motion brings both Ganondorf and his opponent downward until solid ground is hit or they both bypass the lower blastline. Should a soft platform be hit instead, Ganondorf will land on it, but his opponent will continue downward like normal, although recovering from it is possible in this scenario.
