'''Southern California''', abbreviated as '''SoCal''', is a ''Smash'' region located in the United States. "SoCal" is generally defined to include the southern half of the state of California, centered on the Los Angeles and San Diego metropolitan areas. It deliberately excludes [[Northern California]] and the San Francisco Bay Area, as the state's large size has resulted in the development of largely separate ''Smash'' scenes in its two halves.
'''Southern California''', abbreviated as '''SoCal''', is a ''Smash'' region located in the United States. "SoCal" is generally defined to include the southern half of the state of California, centered on the Los Angeles and San Diego metropolitan areas. It deliberately excludes [[Northern California]] and the San Francisco Bay Area, as the state's large size has resulted in the development of largely separate ''Smash'' scenes in its two halves.


Since the inception of competitive ''[[Melee]]'', Southern California has been home to one of the largest and most active ''Smash'' scenes. This can be attributed to the huge population of the Los Angeles area, as well as its prominent air hub and heavy usage of the automobile facilitating transportation to tournaments. SoCal has long been considered the strongest ''Melee'' region in the world, home to both {{Sm|Ken}}, one of the strongest and most iconic players of the pre-''[[Brawl]]'' era, and {{Sm|Mango}}, one of [[the Five Gods]]. The region is also known as one of the strongest ''[[Smash 4]]'' regions, and was considered the second-strongest ''Brawl'' region in the United States (after the [[Tristate Area]]) during the game's competitive lifetime. Fueled by its large population, SoCal is home to some of the U.S.'s largest tournament activity, hosting both frequent locals and large nationals. It is one of the two strongest regions for ''[[Project M]]'' as well (the other being the [[Tristate Area]]), having numerous national threats.
