'''Peach''' ({{ja|ピーチ|Pīchi}}, ''Peach'') is a [[starter character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. Announced at [[E3]] 2001, it is her first appearance in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series.

Announced at [[E3]] 2001, '''Peach''' ({{ja|ピーチ|Pīchi}}, ''Peach'') is a [[starter]] character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and it was her first appearance in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. series]]''.  


{{iw|mariowiki|Jen Taylor}}, who portrayed Peach in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Party 3}}'' and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Advance}}'', reprises her role in ''Melee'' with new voice clips.
Currently, Peach is 6th in the A tier in both the NTSC and PAL versions of the game giving her the highest rank of any ''Mario'' character. Peach's float cancel gives her a fantastic aerial game. She also has good chaingrabbing abilities, which is particularly useful against higher tiered characters. She is also the owner of [[Vegetables|one of the best projectiles in the game]]. Additionally, Peach's recovery is among the best in the game, with many options available to her, allowing her to recover at almost any angle. However, Peach's primary flaw is her light weight and floatiness, which makes her more susceptible to KOs, especially on the upper blast lines. Additionally, her slow dash and weak ground attacks, save for her down smash, impair her approach while on the ground.
 
Currently, Peach is 7th in the A tier in NTSC version and 6th in the PAL version. Peach's float grants her a slew of unique tools in movement and aerial combat. Her ability to stall in place midair grants her the best option coverage in the game with regards to edgeguarding, allowing her to easily react to any opponent’s recovery options. Her float cancel and DJC, combined with her fast aerial attacks, give her a fantastic aerial game and pressuring ability. She also has good chaingrabbing abilities, strong KO moves in her down smash, neutral aerial and forward aerial, and numerous setups to lead into them, which is particularly useful against fastfallers. Her down smash is notorious for its high damage output, capable of dealing over 40 percent in one use if not properly DI’ed, and makes [[crouch canceling]] extremely dangerous against her. She is also the owner of [[Vegetable]], one of the best projectiles in the game. Additionally, Peach's recovery is among the best in the game; her float and up special allow her to travel extremely far horizontally, and her [[Peach Parasol]] grants her great protection at the ledge due to its large disjointed hitbox.
 
However, Peach's primary flaw is her slow ground movement and floatiness, which impair her approach, especially on the ground, and she gets easily outmaneuevered by faster characters such as {{SSBM|Fox}} and {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}. Her lack of disjointed range on most of her attacks results in her getting walled out by characters with large hitboxes, most notoriously against {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}, who can easily outspace Peach with her back aerial alone. Peach’s light weight and floatiness also makes her more susceptible to KOs, especially on the upper blast lines.


==Attributes==
==Attributes==
Peach does not fall into any specific archetype of a fighting game character; her attributes are quite varied, with average weight, a low [[falling speed]], and among the slowest [[dash]]es in the game, alongside a high [[air speed]]. These attributes form the crux of Peach's combat: a focus on aerial combat while forgoing most of her ground-based options.
Peach does not fall into any specific archetype of a fighting game character; her attributes are quite varied, with below average weight, a low [[falling speed]], and among the slowest [[dash]]es in the game, alongside a high [[air speed]]. These attributes form the crux of Peach's combat: a focus on aerial combat while forgoing most of her ground-based options.


Peach's primary strength is her dominant air game. Despite a poor [[SHFFL]] due to a low falling speed and high jumping speed, Peach's unique ability to [[float]] gives her an enormous advantage in the air over other characters; in addition to allowing her to easily and effectively pursue characters she has knocked into the air, her midair jump's unusual properties allow her to utilize the [[Double Jump Cancel]], a technique that allows her to quickly perform aerials in rapid succession. Outside of this, Peach's fast neutral and back aerials make them potent [[out of shield]] options. As a further benefit from her excellent aerial game, Peach's [[vegetable]]s can become a powerful approaching technique compounded with her DJC.

Outside of this, Peach's fast neutral and back aerials make them potent [[out of shield]] options. As a further benefit from her excellent aerial game, Peach's [[vegetable]]s can become a powerful approaching technique compounded with her DJC.  


As a result of her powerful aerial game, Peach owns among the most powerful, albeit specialized, approaches in the game. Against primarily ground-based opponents with poor aerial games, such as the {{SSBM|Ice Climbers}} or {{SSBM|Luigi}}, Peach can quickly overwhelm such opponents. Her vegetables can also allow her to easily [[camp]] against other characters, and due to their propensity to "bounce" upon striking other characters, they can be compounded with her DJC to combo either by themselves or with her aerials.

Regardless of her average grab range, Peach also owns a powerful throwing game. Her up throw can potentially [[chain throw]] characters with high [[falling speed]], as well as lead into her other throws. Peach's down throw can also lead to a variety of options for herself, including another throw, a tilt, or a DJCed aerial. In addition, her forward throw and back throw can both be used as KO moves, with the former having the highest knockback for a forward throw in the game and the latter allowing her to easily segue into her powerful edgeguard game.

As a final, powerful benefit for Peach, she also boasts one of the best recoveries in the game. With a high air speed, low falling speed, the ability to float, a long midair jump, the ability to recover with her [[Peach Bomber|side special]] and a [[Peach Parasol|long recovery special]], Peach is extremely difficult to KO off the edges, even with her below average weight. Her fast neutral, up, and back aerials can also act as deterrents to edgeguarders, while her vegetables, if they are in hand during her recovery, can further aggravate such pursuers. Despite this powerful recovery, Peach's low falling speed and below average weight can also allow her to be easily KO'd via the upper [[blast line]], and vertical finishers can more easily KO Peach than other top tiered characters.

Barring her grab and throw game, however, Peach suffers on the ground. Peach's side and down tilt attacks are slow, though good reads by players can potentially allow for her to use them as combo starters. Peach's smashes also suffer from similar problems, though her down smash can inflict significant damage to opponents and shields, while her up smash can potentially act as a potent KO move. A slow dashing speed (the second lowest in the game) also prevents her from easily pursuing opponents on foot, and her various attributes give her the shortest wavedash in the game, preventing her from taking advantage of wave smashing. Arguably Peach's best attack on the ground takes form of her dash attack; the attack can act as a useful combo starter, but barring this, the use of Peach's ground game for approaching should be avoided by players, and instead, they should be used to either continue combos or to finish them.

{{SSBMMatchupTable|peach=yes}}
Peach has a very strong matchup spread when compared to the rest of the cast. She is soft countered by 5 characters, has 3 even matchups, soft counters 9 characters, counters 5, and hard counters 3. She does incredibly well against characters who she can easily edgeguard and space out with her aerials, such as {{SSBM|Roy}}, {{SSBM|Pikachu}}, and especially the {{SSBM|Ice Climbers}}. Peach generally fares poorly against characters that can exploit her light weight and floatiness; in particular, {{SSBM|Fox}}, {{SSBM|Sheik}}, and {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} all have reliable KO setups against her because of these properties. She also fares poorly against characters who have such a superior ground game that her advantages in the air are neutralized, such as the aforementioned Fox and Captain Falcon, as well as {{SSBM|Marth}}, who outranges and outspaces her and can stifle her aerial approaches with timely aerials of his own. Peach especially has trouble against characters who have a better aerial game than she does, such as {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}, who can easily edgeguard her and space her out with forward and back aerials.


:''See also: [[:Category:Peach players (SSBM)]]''
Overall, Peach does well against almost every character in the game and has the tools to effectively fight the entire cast, despite having trouble in some matchups in the top tier. Metagame developments since the creation of this matchup chart have suggested that Peach actually has an even matchup against Sheik and a close to even matchup with Marth, meaning that she fares slightly better in the present than she did in the past.


*{{Sm|Armada|Sweden}} - One of the [[Five Gods]], and widely recognized as the undisputed best Peach player of all time. Armada was known for his unforgiving [[punish]] and [[edgeguarding]] game, and for holding positive matchups against almost every other top player despite Peach's relative position on the tier list. Armada is also the only Peach player to have achieved a #1 world ranking, and established themselves as a consistent favorite to win majors.

===Tier placement and history===
===Tier placement and history===
Due to Peach's great aerial potential and [[combo]] ability, she has been a character consistently ranking in the top tiers of the ''Melee'' [[tier list]]. However, she has generally been regarded as below the other top tiers in terms of tournament viability, due to her slow movement speed and floatiness. During the 2000s, several Peach players, including {{Sm|Sastopher}}, {{Sm|Cort}}, and {{Sm|DoH}}, were able to defeat top players and frequently, albeit inconsistently, place in the top eight at majors. However, Peach's tournament representation truly shined during {{Sm|Armada}}'s reign of dominance from 2009 to 2013, where he placed 1st or 2nd at nearly every tournament he entered in the United States, defeating North America's top players with Peach.
Due to Peach's great aerial potential and [[combo]] ability, as well as her powerful potential [[mindgames]], she has been a character consistently ranking in the top tiers of the ''Melee'' [[tier list]]. However, as time progressed, {{Sm|Armada}} became the only Smasher who was able to win money from large tournaments with Peach, with all other Peach players being rather lackluster and falling short of the top 8 at national tournaments. Outside of Armada, representation of Peach in tournaments has still been ubiquitous, with many pre-top 8 placements, but other dedicated Peach players have seldom been able to earn significant money. Despite this, Peach is still ranked in the top tier at 6th place, and is still considered by some smashers to be one of the most powerful characters in the game.
 
However, Peach's tournament viability has always been held back by her extremely unfavorable matchup against Jigglypuff. Armada was unable to take a single game off of Hungrybox's Jigglypuff with Peach from 2009 to 2013, despite being considered a more skilled player at the time. He eventually gave up using Peach to try defeating Hungrybox, and switched to counterpicks such as {{SSBM|Young Link}} and {{SSBM|Fox}}, with which he had much greater success. He also brought out the Fox counterpick against other players, such as fellow Swedish player {{Sm|Leffen}}, whom he found it increasingly difficult to defeat with Peach. It is generally acknowledged that Peach's tournament success was largely due to Armada's incredible abilities as a player, rather than Peach being better than the other top tiers. This is supported by the fact that only a handful of other Peach players have been able to consistently place in the top sixteen of majors during the modern era. Following Armada's retirement from competing in 2018, Peach's representation in tournaments dropped significantly.
 
Today, Peach is generally considered among the least viable of the top tier characters, and is often seen as having the worst matchup spread among all the top tiers. Her lopsided matchup vs. Jigglypuff is considered the single hardest counter among any of the top tier matchups, and she is seen as clearly losing every other top tier matchup (with the exception of Falco). As a result of this perception, she has dropped to 7th on the thirteenth and latest tier list, at the bottom of A tier.


====PAL viability====
====PAL viability====
Peach did not receive any changes from NTSC to PAL, but several characters that would years later be placed higher than her on the tier list did; Fox now has a harder time KOing Peach and gets edgeguarded much more easily, Sheik has no guaranteed followups with her down throw and relies more heavily on zoning, and Marth has slightly lower air speed and weight, improving Peach's chances in those matchups. Peach is still ranked 6th in the PAL tier list, but is notably placed in her own tier at B, where most European players can see a noticeable difference in viability between Sheik, Peach, and Captain Falcon.

Peach can appear in one-on-one battles, as an ally, on a team with {{SSBM|Bowser}}, {{SSBM|Mario}}, {{SSBM|Ness}}, or {{SSBM|Zelda}}, or as a metal opponent. Peach is fought on {{SSBM|Battlefield}} when on a team with Bowser or in the metal battle, at [[Onett]] when on a team with Ness, and on [[Temple]] when on a team with Zelda. In other cases, she is fought on either [[Princess Peach's Castle]] or [[Mushroom Kingdom II]]. Unusually, unlike every other ''Mario'' character (including sub-series), Peach does not appear as a giant opponent, making her the only ''Mario'' character overall that is ineligible for this battle type.

==Trivia==
*When Peach uses Peach Parasol at the end of the match, she will be rewarded with the Parasol Finish [[list of bonuses|bonus]]. In addition, if she uses it with the Parasol item, her up special animation will remain the same, but with the Parasol in her hands instead.

*The animation filenames for Peach's neutral special and down special are swapped, likely indicating that Toad was originally designed as a down special, similar to other counter moves.<ref>https://tcrf.net/Super_Smash_Bros._Melee#Peach</ref>
*Peach, {{SSBM|Marth}}, and {{SSBM|Roy}} are the only characters in ''Melee'' with a special move that can counter, however Peach's uses her neutral special while Marth and Roy use their down special.
*Peach and {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}} are the only characters in ''Melee'' who cannot use their down special in the air.

*Peach is the only character in ''Melee'' to be in her own tier (in the PAL version) and also not be ranked first or last.
**Across the whole series, she shares this trait with the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} on the NTSC ''Brawl'' tier list and {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}} on the PAL ''Brawl'' tier list, though she is the only one of the three that is not ranked 2nd.

*Peach is the only ''Mario'' character in ''Melee'', including sub-series {{uv|Donkey Kong}} and {{uv|Yoshi}}, that cannot appear as a giant character in Stage 5 of {{SSBM|Classic Mode}}.
*Peach's design in this game, like the rest of the cast, is based on her appearance in the Nintendo 64 era. This is one of two GameCube games to do this, with the other being ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. Her modern design was standardized in ''Mario Party 4'', and has been used in every ''Smash'' game since.
*This marks the only time Peach's Daisy costume is designed to make her look exactly like Daisy, as opposed to simply recoloring her with Daisy's colors, as in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4''.
**This makes her the first non-''Pokémon'' playable character to have an alternate costume that changes their appearance completely, rather than simply just the colors of their clothes, although only in this game.
*Peach, {{SSBM|Mario}}, {{SSBM|Yoshi}}, {{SSBM|Young Link}}, {{SSBM|Kirby}}, {{SSBM|Falco}}, and {{SSBM|Pikachu}} are the only characters whose portraits on the [[character select screen]] match their [[character artwork|official artwork]].
*Peach is the only fighter in ''Melee'' to have new voice clips from an English voice actress. The other fighters with English voices — Mario, {{SSBM|Dr. Mario}}, {{SSBM|Luigi}}, and {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} — reuse material from previous games.
**While {{SSBM|Fox}} and Falco have new voice clips from English voice actors, these are only used for the [[Star Fox Smash Taunt]] on [[Corneria]] and [[Venom]], and their playable appearances use their Japanese voices instead.
