Guatemala is considered one of the | Guatemala is considered one of the strongest ''Smash'' regions in [[Central America]]; however, the region's rise was relatively recent and mainly took place during the post-pandemic metagame, when their best player {{Sm|ShinyMark}} began traveling more outside his region. Thanks to his many strong performances, ShinyMark was able to establish himself as one of the greatest ''[[Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Pikachu}} players of all time, as well as the best ''Ultimate'' player to come from Central America.
