Editing Peach (SSBB)

'''Peach''' ({{ja|ピーチ|Pīchi}}, ''Peach'') is a [[starter character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' after returning from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. She was announced on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] website on August 17, 2007.

{{s|mariowiki|Samantha Kelly}}, who has voiced Peach since ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Strikers Charged}}'', reprises her role in all regions of ''Brawl'' with brand new voice clips, simultaneously emulating and succeeding Jen Taylor's portrayal from ''Melee''; the latter's voice clip used for Peach's taunt in ''Melee'' (where she says, "Sweet!") was re-purposed for Peach's [[Wii Remote selection sound]].

Peach is currently ranked 19th out of 38 at the very center of the ''Brawl'' [[tier list]], in the bottom of the high-mid tier, though her ranking in ''Brawl'', technically her worst placement in the series, is considered a downgrade from ''Melee'', as she noticeably dropped from her high tier placement of 7th out of 26. Her [[item]]-based [[Turnip]] projectiles are effective at keeping opponents as bay when [[camping]], and by using [[glide toss]]es can also aid her [[approach]]. Her aforementioned floating ability can be used in a number of ways, including aiding her [[recovery]] and allowing her to use [[aerial]]s repeatedly without landing or having to jump between attacks, or when holding throwable items. She also has one of the best horizontal recoveries in the game, and is also good at [[edgeguarding]], [[combo]]ing, and [[damage]] racking, and she has a strong aerial game as a result of her floating. However, she is hindered by having difficulties in [[KO]]ing opponents, despite possessing many moves with high KO potential, due to the fact that they either have difficult to land [[sweetspot]]s, possess low base knockback, or have low knockback scaling. Her Turnips also cover shorter distance than most projectiles when thrown, which, when combined with her slow movement, allows higher tier characters to camp better than her. She also has poor endurance and [[momentum cancelling]], especially vertically, and is a tall character. She also suffers from a poor ground game with short [[reach]], weak ground attacks, and mediocre [[throws]]; and the worst [[air dodge]] with 30 frames of [[ending lag]], which, when combined with her [[floaty]] [[falling speed]], makes it difficult to defend against [[juggle|juggling]] and aerial followups. In spite of this, she has mostly above average [[matchups]], including a winning matchup against the higher-tier {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} and {{SSBB|Wario}}. Overall, Peach has above average [[tournament]] results.

==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==

Peach was significantly [[nerf]]ed overall from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'', with several of her once-dominating advantages removed in the transition. Her aerial game has seen various downgrades. Her air speed is slower, and her double jump is drastically lower. She also lost access to [[double jump cancel]]ing and float canceling, and all of her aerials have increased ending lag. Her dash attack and down smash (previously her best grounded moves) have been altered, making them far inferior to their former counterparts. Her grab game has also seen some nerfs. Her forward throw is much weaker, and her up throw can no longer chain grab opponents. Her kill power has been severely reduced, as many of her KO moves have decreased power. The general changes to ''Brawl'''s mechanics also hinder her overall. The introduction of [[hitstun canceling]] greatly limits her combo potential, while it gives her limited benefits compared to other characters due to her poor [[air dodge]] and weak [[momentum canceling]]. The removal of [[crouch canceling]] also greatly hinders her, especially when combined with the changes to her down smash.

Overall, her buffs do not make up for her nerfs, and the game's new mechanics hinder her overall. Despite this, she still maintains some of her previous strengths and overall remains stronger than various other characters, although she significantly struggles against some of the top tier characters, and her learning curve is rather high in comparison to most other characters.

*{{change|Peach's dress has been updated to match her modern appearance since ''Super Mario Sunshine'' and ''Mario Party 4'', but with a lot more realistic details, such as wrinkles and ruffles. Her hair is also a lighter color.}}

*{{change|Peach's alternate costumes have been altered:}}

**{{change|Her orange costume based on [[Princess Daisy]] now has the same skin color as her default costume, and her earrings are now green spheres rather than daisies. Her hair color is also Brownish Orange rather than Brown. The dress itself is more closely based on Daisy's later appearances.}}

**{{change|Her blue and green costumes are lighter and she now wears pink earrings in her blue costume.}}

*{{change|Her parasol design is from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Yoshi's Island DS}}'' and ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Paper Mario}}''. The color of her parasol also changes color depending on which costume Peach is using.}}

*{{change|Peach also has a new, carefree walk animation where she skips, although her slow walking animation remains unaltered from ''Melee''.}}

*{{change|As on-screen appearances were not present in ''Melee'', Peach now receives one}}.

*{{change|As with the returning veterans, Peach's [[falling speed]] was reduced (1.5 → 1.05). Compared to the returning veterans, Peach falls slightly slower, going from the 4th lowest to the 2nd lowest.}}

**{{buff|Peach now moves forward slightly when performing [[down tilt]], giving her a [[Crawl#pseudo-crawling|pseudo-crawl]]. If Peach performs any action without touching the control stick after using down tilt, she will slide backward, giving her an additional mixup/movement option.}}

**{{buff|If Peach cancels her float after connecting the strong hit of [[back aerial]], both hits can now connect increasing the move's overall damage output (14% → 21%). Back aerial also has a new small hitbox in front of Peach which deals 1% less damage slightly increasing its range.}}

**{{change|Its sweetspot deals slightly less damage (14% → 13%) and has significantly less knockback scaling (120 → 100). This hinders its KO potential but improves its combo potential at lower percents.}}

**{{buff|Down throw no longer forces opponents into [[tumble]] at lower percents and due to DI changes can now reliably chaingrab at lower percents.}}

**{{buff|The hitbox of the under 100% variant has a longer duration (frames 10-14 → 10-16) and both variants have more invincibility (frames 1-6 (under 100%), 1-40 (over 100%) → 1-8/1-48).}}

**{{buff|The increased distance of Peach's glide toss significantly improves her approach potential with turnips or other items.}}

**{{buff|Peach can now catch turnips and other items in the air with her aerials and air dodge.}}

**{{buff|Peach's turnips can deal more damage depending on the item throw (8% maximum increase → 11.9%), allowing all of her turnips to deal up to 3.9% more damage.}}

|neutralname=Royal Slap ({{ja|ロイヤルびんた|Roiyaru Binta}}) / Royal Round-Trip Slap ({{ja|ロイヤル往復びんた|Roiyaru Ōfuku Binta}})

|neutraldesc=Peach slaps the enemy twice. Produces unique slapping sound effects when striking opponents. This move is similar to an attack in ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}''. Excellent panic move and grab setup due to its speed, as it comes out in just two frames. Interestingly, her second slap is also her most ranged normal move.

|ftiltname=Can-Can Kick ({{ja|カンカンキック|Kankan Kikku}})

|utiltname=Heading Crown ({{ja|ヘディングクラウン|Hedingu Kuraun}})

|dtiltname=Elegant Underfoot Scoop ({{ja|エレガント足もとすくい|Ereganto Ashimoto Sukui}})

|dashname=Lady Push ({{ja|レディープッシュ|Redī Pusshu}})

|fsmashname=Peach Smash ({{ja|ピーチスマッシュ|Pīchi Sumasshu}})

|usmashname=Orgel Dance ({{ja|オルゴールダンス|Orugōru Dansu}})

|dsmashname=Dress Edge ({{ja|ドレスエッジ|Doresu Ejji}})

|nairname=Peach Spin ({{ja|ピーチスピン|Pīchi Supin}})

|nairdesc=Spins around with arms extended. Decent knockback. Good for [[edgeguard]]ing. Hits on frame 3, allowing to be an excellent combo breaker due to its almost instantaneous start-up which can break some [[chain throw]]s. KOs at 111% at the ledge, or at 151% from the center of Final Destination.

|fairname=Crown Knuckle ({{ja|クラウンナックル|Kuraun Nakkuru}})

|fairdesc=Peach takes off her crown and strikes with it. Good knockback and is often considered her most reliable KO move, even though it still isn't too reliable. Has a disjointed hitbox. Good for edgeguarding. KOs at 86% at the ledge, or at 133% from the center of Final Destination.

|bairname=Sky Hip ({{ja|スカイヒップ|Sukai Hippu}})

|uairname=Last-Minute High Kick ({{ja|ギリギリハイキック|Girigiri Hai Kikku}})

|uairdesc=A high kick. On grounded opponents, the strong hit KOs at 148%, but can kill much earlier higher up. Good for aerial combos. At low percentages, floating up aerials will string into each other for a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sF-pxIUO3gE devastating combo].

|dairname=Super Piston Kick ({{ja|スーパーピストンキック|Sūpā Pisuton Kikku}})

|grabname=Grab ({{ja|つかみ|Tsukami}})

|pummelname=Heel Stamp ({{ja|ヒールスタンプ|Hīru Sutanpu}})

|pummeldesc=Steps on the opponent with her left foot. A fast pummel.

|fthrowname=Royal Slap Launch ({{ja|ロイヤルびんた飛ばし|Roiyaru Binta Tobashi}})

|fthrowdesc=Peach winds up and slaps the opponent away. Similar to her neutral attack, this throw produces unique slapping sounds. Decent knockback and the strongest of Peach's throws, though it doesn't KO until 158% at the ledge, and lacks KO power from further away. Can chaingrab heavies at extremely low percentages provided that one buffers a dash grab.

|bthrowname=Iron Hip ({{ja|アイアンヒップ|Aian Hippu}})

|uthrowname=Hand Toss ({{ja|ハンドトス|Hando Tosu}})

|dthrowname=Peach Drop ({{ja|ピーチドロップ|Pīchi Doroppu}})

|dthrowdesc=Places the opponent on the ground, jumps up and sits on them. Great for chain-grabbing heavy characters and fast-fallers at low percentages. Good for follow-ups. If there is a third character nearby, the first hit of the throw, which does 0% damage by itself, will act as a weak meteor smash.

|fsdesc=Everyone goes to sleep and thirteen peaches appear on the stage, each healing 5% damage. Airborne opponents cannot fall asleep, but will still receive damage from the final smash.

[[File:Subspace zelda peach.PNG|thumb|250px|Peach and {{SSBB|Zelda}} in ''[[SSE]]''.]]

The Shadow Bugs that came along with Bowser make a clone of Peach that proceeds to ambush {{SSBB|Mario}} and {{SSBB|Pit}} with a [[Dark Cannon]]. However, {{SSBB|Link}} destroys the Dark Cannon and he and {{SSBB|Yoshi}} fight and defeat her. When the clone is defeated, Mario witnesses her trophy disintegrating into Shadow Bugs and, believing it was the real Peach, proceeds to attack both {{SSBB|Link}} and {{SSBB|Yoshi}} with Pit’s help. When they are defeated, Kirby makes a return after Dedede races by and snatches Mario and Pit's trophy. He slices the handle off of the crane and revives Mario and Pit. The heroes Mario, Pit, Yoshi, Link and Kirby chase after Dedede. In his castle lair, Dedede plants a [[Dedede Brooch|brooch]] on Zelda, Luigi and Ness before Bowser attacks and takes Zelda.

At a later part of the story, Zelda and Peach are discovered by {{SSBB|Lucario}}, {{SSBB|Snake}} and {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} in cages aboard the Battleship Halberd, stuck in their trophy form. Shadow Bug clones of the princesses then fight the trio. After being freed, Snake tells both Zelda and Peach to stay in the room that they were being held captive in.

However, Peach and Zelda (disguised as {{SSBB|Sheik}}) strike out on their own to investigate the matter themselves. They make their way to the Halberd's top deck, just as {{SSBB|Fox}} attacks the ship, again in his Arwing. Peach calmly walks in during the fire-fight with her parasol, but when some of the Arwing's blasters nearly hit her, Sheik forces Fox to eject by breaking through the cockpit. As the two begin to fight, Peach stops them by offering them tea, which they both accept.

Meta Knight, Snake, and Lucario discover that the Halberd is being piloted by Mr. Game & Watch clones, which Snake knocks out the window and onto the deck below. The clones revert into Shadow Bugs, which transform into a boss named [[Duon]]. Fortunately, Peach, Zelda, and Fox are joined by Snake and Lucario, along with {{SSBB|Falco}}. When Duon is defeated, the real {{SSBB|Mr. Game & Watch}}'s trophy is left behind as the Shadow Bugs float away. Fox prepares to blast the trophy, but Peach casually walks over and revives him, scolding him when he awakes. Peach then gives him her [[Peach Parasol|parasol]] as a token of friendship, which fascinates Mr. Game & Watch. Meta Knight then regains control of his ship.

===Using stickers===

Peach's attacks are all scattered; in each category of tilts, smashes and aerials, each one has at least three types. Primarily, Weapon, Arm and Leg attacks are the most relevant, as this covers all attacks barring up tilt, down smash, back aerial, Peach Bomber and two throws. Out of these the Body/Spin attack stickers covers all but the up tilt, which is powered by Magic stickers. Her down smash, the tip of her forward tilt (her foot), and the [[Peach Parasol]] when open are powered by Slash stickers. Weapon stickers will cover all three variants of her forward smash, forward aerial, [[Vegetable]] and Peach Parasol.
