The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

'''Power Pellet''' ({{ja| | '''Power Pellet''' ({{ja|パワーペレット|Pawā Peretto}}, ''Power Pellet''), is [[Pac-Man]]'s [[side special move]] in [[SSB4]]. | ||

The direction of the trail can be changed slightly by moving the control stick, and when the special button is let go, Pac-Man turns into his ball form and follows the trail. The Pac-Dot trail extends about one fourth the length of Final Destination, but Pac-Man can travel a farther distance after consuming the Power Pellet, traveling a little more than half of Final Destination's length. The trail can be stopped at any time by letting go of the special button, cutting the trail short. When Pac-Man finishes this move, he will not go into his helpless state, and can follow up with his second jump or up-special, making this a viable horizontal recovery. However, when used in the air, Pac-Man will still drop down, and the Pellet trail follows him. | ||

Pac-Man will grow bigger and radiate yellow for a second when he eats the Power Pellet, as well as gain [[super armor]] until the move ends. If an enemy is hit when Pac-Man is in this state, they will be inflicted 10% to 12% of damage, and has decent knockback. This sweetspot can KO at around 130%. | ||
If Pac-Man is interrupted before he begins to travel or before he gets to the Power Pellet, the Pellet will fall to the ground and Pac-Man will stop the action of deploying smaller pellets. It can be used as a | If Pac-Man is interrupted before he begins to travel or before he gets to the Power Pellet, the Pellet will fall to the ground and Pac-Man will stop the action of deploying smaller pellets. It can be used as a healing item, recovering 2%. When the trail is aimed at the ground, Pac-Man will [[trip]] onto the ground upon impact. Additionally, if the path is aimed at the wall, Pac-Man will fall into his hurt animation upon impact for a moment, unable to do anything until the animation ends. Pac-Man will not get hurt in the process, but the lengthy animation of the mis-aimed tumble can easily cause a self-destruct if he collides with the sides of the stage. | ||
== | ==Glitches== | ||
{{ | There are two glitches in {{for3ds}} involving Pac-Man being stuck invincible in a specific frame. | ||
*Pac-Man must use a [[Warp Star]] then Power Pellet; {{SSB4|Jigglypuff}} must attack Pac-Man to interrupt the move to make the Power Pellet at the end drop. Then, Pac-Man must ride on another [[Warp Star]] while Jigglypuff eats the dropped Power Pellet. Once Pac-Man lands, he will freeze {{YouTube|A_Y8G6tuXeE}}. | |||
*{{SSB4|Duck Hunt}} must attack Pac-Man while using Power Pellet to interrupt the move and make the Power Pellet at the end drop. Pac-Man must then knock Duck Hunt off the stage using his forward smash, then down taunt. If done correctly, Pac-Man will stand up and freeze. | |||

# '''Distant Power Pellet''': The trail of pellets is much longer and deploys faster, summoning a Power Pellet followed by eight Pac-Dots. This trail is as long as more than half of Final Destination, but Pac-Man's momentum after eating the Power Pellet is extremely short, making the move's horizontal distance the same as the standard variation. This move is extremely maneuverable, as the path of the Pellets can be changed in any direction with relative ease, making it a viable horizontal recovery option, or used for combos. It is possible to create several small loops with the trail, which can result in Pac-Man trapping the opponent when he turns into his ball form. Upon startup, if the enemy is immediately next to Pac-Man, they will be hurt by 10%, and 1% or 2% if they are hit while in the middle of the trail. This move's sweet spot at the end of the trail is weakened, dealing 6% to 7% of damage, and has less knockback | # '''Distant Power Pellet''': The trail of pellets is much longer and deploys faster, summoning a Power Pellet followed by eight Pac-Dots.

# '''Enticing Power Pellet''': This trail is extremely short, and takes longer to deploy. The Power Pellet that is summoned is slow, and is surrounded by a vortex that has a strong [[pull]] effect. It is followed by only two Pac-Dots. This move only travels less than half of Final Destination's length. The vortex will drag nearby opponents directly into the move's sweet spot, making it a strong attack. This move deals 13% damage when Pac-Man chomps on an opponent, and deals 19% with strong knockback when the opponent is hit by the sweet spot.

Power Pellets appear on different points of the stage and allow Pac-Man to become invincible and eat ghosts. Similar Pellet trails appeared in the ''{{s|wikipedia|Pac-Man World}}'' games, wherein long snaking trails of pellets would wind around sections of many stages; chomping on a red pellet would make Pac-Man proceed to follow the path, flying through the air as ate all the pellets, similar to how the ''Smash Bros.'' move is used. | ||
