'''Peach Blossom''' ({{ja|ピーチブラッサム}} ''Pīchiburassamu'') is [[Peach]]'s [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

==Summary==

When Peach Blossom is used, two drawings of Peach and multiple hearts frame the screen as Peach dances. The Peach drawings flank the window, and the hearts appear all over the screen. A sped-up rendition of the Coin Heaven theme plays to accompany Peach's dancing. All grounded opponents fall [[asleep]], and all opponents take 10%, 20%, or 40% damage (depending on distance). Characters sleep for longer the closer they are to Peach; this can easily exceed ten seconds even with [[button mashing]]. Regardless of whether enemies fall asleep or not, dozens of health-restoring [[Food|peaches]] appear. Once the Final Smash is complete, Peach can heal herself easily and/or get free hits on her sleeping opponents.  

As with any cause of sleep, only characters that are grounded are affected. Characters with abilities such as many jumps, slow falling speed, and good recovery moves can remain airborne during the entire Final Smash. Other ways of avoiding the Final Smash include grabbing edges, [[wall cling]]ing, and grabbing [[ladder]]s. These techniques do not prevent a character from taking damage, but avoiding the sleep portion of the Final Smash makes it easier to eat the peaches that appear.

Given that the camera zooms on Peach during the Final Smash, it may be harder for opponents to move around or stay in midair, since they are unable to see clearly where they are and pay attention to their character, which can also cause them to [[self-destruct]] unintentionally. However, the zoom-in is brief, so the move is easy to avoid if one knows what they are doing.

In ''Smash 4'', the Final Smash does 30% damage rather than 40% in Brawl. It has a much smaller range and opponents have to be closer to Peach in order to fall asleep. Also, opponents sleep for a much shorter time than in Brawl. Despite these negative changes, the Final Smash now affects air opponents, who become [[Helpless|helpless]] and fall if they are in the air, which can be especially effective if there is no solid ground under the opponents' feet.

Aside from game play changes, Peach Blossom also received aesthetic changes. The pink frame that appears has changed drastically, taking on an anime-like design. It is no longer flower-themed like in was in Brawl, and is instead decorated with hearts and ribbons. Also, unlike Brawl, the side images of Peach change every time the Final Smash is activated, and will sometimes blink. The peaches summoned during the Final Smash are reduced to three, albeit they are extremely large and heal 20% damage.

==Origin==

The move is unique to Brawl - the name, effect, and fruit being an obvious pun on her name. However, Peach has shown the ability to put enemies to sleep in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario RPG}}'' using her "{{s|mariowiki|Sleepy Time}}" ability. The Peach drawings were inspired by ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Princess Peach}}''. Also, the heart effects and motifs of the Final Smash are similar to Peach's heart powers from the Mario spin-off titles, such as ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Power Tennis}}'', ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Hoops 3 on 3}}'', and ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Super Sluggers}}''. Slowing down time reveals that the Final Smash music is a sped up remix of the music in {{s|mariowiki|the Sky}} and {{s|mariowiki|Coin Heaven}} levels and in the {{s|mariowiki|Warp Zone}} (World 9) of ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}'' ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-7tXbQRXBg]).

==Trophy Description==

[[File:Peach Blossom - Brawl Trophy.png|200px|thumb|The Peach Blossom trophy in ''Brawl'']]

''Peach's Final Smash. Images of the princess border the screen and a rain of peaches falls. While this is happening, all the other characters fall asleep. So, Peach's dilemma is this--does she eat the peaches to lower her damage, or does she smack around her dozing enemies? Take stock of the situation and choose the path that leads to victory.''

 

''"Pull foes into Peach's world, where they fall asleep. The closer they are to Peach, the deeper their slumber. Eat the fallen peaches to recover [[damage]]."''

=={{For3ds}} foldout description==

''"Put foes to sleep, and produce some giant peaches."''

==Trivia==

*The Super Smash Bros. Brawl Premiere Edition Guide states that Peach's Final Smash puts enemies to sleep while inflicting no damage. This is incorrect, as enemies ''do'' take damage.

*This is one of the two Final Smashes that can inflict the sleeping status effect, the other one being [[Negative Zone]].

**In addition, Peach Blossom and Negative Zone are the only final smashes that can never KO by themselves, although they can be used to set up for a KO.
