Editing Sticker

A '''sticker''' ({{ja|シール|Shīru}}, ''Seal'') is a collectible item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', similar to a [[trophy]]. Stickers can be used in [[The Subspace Emissary]] to boost certain aspects or stats of a character. Additionally, stickers can be added to a background and made into a collage inside the "Sticker Album" menu.  

==Collecting stickers==

The maximum number of stickers the player can collect per battle is 255, and exceeding this limit will get rid of the stickers the player had collected at the time. The reason for this limit is a {{iw|wikipedia|wrapping|overflow}} issue; the per-battle sticker count is stored in a single byte, and when the count goes above 255 ([[wikipedia:Binary number|binary]] 11111111) to 256 (binary 100000000), only the last 8 bits (digits) are stored, setting the count to 0.

On Friday, Jan 18th 2008, [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] announced that stickers can be used as power-ups. To do so, the stickers must be placed on the undersides of character trophies. Different stickers give different boosts, as well as some that are character-specific (most of them can be used by any character). Larger stickers give higher boosts, but take up more space on the trophy base. The statistical boost is only for The Subspace Emissary and does not apply to any other modes. Applied stickers can be moved around, but removing one discards it permanently (though they can be regained through playing).

Stickers with the same effects do not stack; e.g. if an Arm +13 and an Arm +20 are placed on the base of a trophy, that character will only receive the larger +20 boost to arm attacks, not +33, although an Arm/Leg sticker will stack with individual Arm and Leg stickers - i.e., an Arm/Leg + 10, an Arm +10 and a Leg+10 sticker will all combine to boost Arm and Leg attacks by 20. It is also possible for a single attack to fall under several categories, like Captain Falcon's Falcon Punch, which deals Arm, Specials: Direct, and Fire damage.  

The formula for the damage multiplier is:

[Specials: Indirect] Attack is an exception and uses:

Where '''v''' is the value given by the sticker description and '''r''' is the damage multiplier; '''r''' cannot be greater than 25.675, though this can't be reached without hacking. For example, a sticker with a value of 20 will deal 1.25× damage compared to base damage. Note, in the code the sticker's value is cut in half and rounded down, resulting in every odd number being the exact same as the even number before it (e.g. 3=2, 25=24, etc.).

|{{TypeIcon|PK}}||[PK] Attack||Increases the damage done by [[PK]]-based attacks. Only {{SSBB|Ness}} and {{SSBB|Lucas}} can apply stickers with this effect.

|[[File:SpecialsDirect.png|16px|link=Specials: Direct]]||[Specials: Direct] Attack||Increases the damage done by moves that are considered to be [[Specials: Direct|direct]]. The exact criteria are unknown.

The formula for damage reduction is:

Where '''v''' is the value given by the sticker description and '''r''' is the damage multiplier. For example, a sticker with a reduction of 20 will cause attacks to be scaled to 0.75 of the original damage, or a damage reduction of 25%. Note, in the code the sticker's value is cut in half and rounded down, resulting in every odd number being the exact same as the even number before it (e.g. 3=2, 25=24, etc.).

|{{StickerIcon|FlinchResistance}}||Flinch Resistance||Makes it more difficult for a character to [[flinch]].||Grants [[knockback-based armor]] equal to the sticker's value; it ranges from 35 to 168. Launch Resistance reduces knockback before Flinch Resistance occurs, allowing for stronger attacks to be armored when combined.

*The internal file names of the sticker images are organized by a technical abbreviation of their console of origin, such as "DOL" for [[GameCube]], "NTR" for [[Nintendo DS]], and "RVL" for [[Wii]]. These abbreviations are references to their original codenames: Dolphin, Nitro, and Revolution, respectively. Third-party stickers are given "KONAMI" and "SEGA" designations instead, and ''Pokémon'' stickers with ''Brawl''-original artwork are under "Comp", most likely referring to The Pokémon Company.

*While seven characters can use Tail stickers, no Tail sticker can be used by all seven. They can be used by either the [[space animal]]s, or by the other four, but never both.
