Editing Super Pac-Man

'''Super Pac-Man''' ({{ja|スーパーパックマン|Sūpā Pakkuman}}, ''Super Pac-Man''), also stylized '''Super PAC-MAN''', is [[Pac-Man]]'s [[Final Smash]].

In this Final Smash, Pac-Man simultaneously eats a Power Pellet and a Super Pellet<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzzKdYSdQmA</ref>, which makes him transform him into his classic two-dimensional form and larger. While the Final Smash is active, the sound when Pac-Man consumes a Power Pellet plays on a loop. Super Pac-Man can move anywhere in the air, but only in 90-degree angles, and if Super Pac-Man moves off the edge of the screen he wraps around to the other side of the stage<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C31wO-fT0RE</ref>, both similar to mechanics in his home series. However, if he tries to go off the top of a stage when the bottom extends past the blast line at that point, he will get stuck at the [[blast line]]. If Super Pac-Man runs into a wall, he will stop chomping until moved in a direction without a wall, and touching him will not deal any damage.

Each opponent "eaten" gets dealt 15% and moderate knockback, and they become a pair of floating "ghost" eyes as they get knocked back. Once the opponent is out of [[hitstun]], they turn back into their normal self until Super Pac-Man eats them again. Super Pac-Man's chomps don't KO onstage opponents until 140%, but because Super Pac-Man is not subject to gravity very little can stop him from chasing chomped opponents offstage past the [[blast line]].

When an opponent is consumed, a point value appears, like when Pac-Man eats ghosts in his home series. Consuming the first opponent gives 200 points, then 400, then 800, then 1600, then 3200, then all subsequent eaten opponents yield 7650. The point value is completely aesthetic, showing nothing more than how many opponents Pac-Man has eaten (except in the [[Event match|event]] "[[The Big 7650!]]", where the points are used to win the event).

The Final Smash returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' with a significant overhaul: Pac-Man automatically moves forward and loops around the screen at a diagonal angle. The player has no direct control over Pac-Man but can gradually adjust his trajectory by tilting the control stick up or down.

Pac-Man has been seen growing a large size in a short {{s|wikipedia|cutscene}} in the original ''Pac-Man'', where he was chased by a ghost when normal sized, then chases that ghost when giant sized; this was referenced in Pac-Man's reveal trailer.<ref>http://youtu.be/dVz-2VuAYlY?t=1m10s</ref> He was not seen in this size during normal gameplay until ''{{s|wikipedia|Super Pac-Man}}'', where special green pellets, known as Super Pellets, allowed him to temporarily increase in size, move faster, and break through doors.

 

The floating eyes that appear are reminiscent to those from the original ''Pac-Man''. It was a form the [[ghosts]] take after Pac-Man consumes them when they are vulnerable. The consumed ghosts must return to their lair in order to restore themselves back to normal. The point value that appears when Pac-Man eats a ghost is added to the total score of a play through. These points rack up every time Pac-Man eats a ghost in the period of time he is invincible.

 

Skipping from 3200 to 7650 points is a common trait in the ''Pac-Man'' games, starting in ''Pac-Land''. 7650 is a {{s|wikipedia|Japanese wordplay}} on "Namco".<ref>[http://protipoftheday.com/node/457.html Pro tip: Why some things are worth 7650 points in Pac-Man games]</ref>

*While Pac-Man eats a Power Pellet in performing this move, [[ghosts]] on [[Pac-Maze]] or summoned from an [[Assist Trophy]] do not turn blue. In fact, if Pac-Man is under the effect of a Power Pellet from Pac-Maze, its effects will actually disappear when using Super Pac-Man.
