==Standard Special still works==
== Unbiased ==
Many times I have gotten a smash ball, then quickly hammered the 'B' button to activate it as soon as possible. To my surprise, instead of activating my final smash, my standard special move was used instead. Why does this happen? -Is there a small period of time before you are able to use the final smash? Can you use the standard special move whenever you wish? Does anyone have more information regarding this? -It should be added to the article.

Hey hey i do not know who messed with the setup, but listen up. ALL final smashes can destroy opponents. Some (and by some i mean Critical Hit) have the potential to destroy in just one mighty blow. But seriously, Critical Hit is, in fact, the only FS that will absolutely positively destroy your opponent if it hits. I think the ENTIRE part with the "One-Hit KO" stuff is only there because someone wanted to show off Marth's stupid strong FS. Sure, some can ONLY defeat opponents if they have higher damage (Galaxia Darkness, Peach Blossom, and practically every FS auctually). So, please, someone get rid of that large, unsightly collumn...it's making me sick.--[[User:Oxico|Oxico]] 22:47, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


yeah, that happens all the time to me. I think I read about it somewhere on the wiki. linkpwns
== Edits ==
OK.  Apparently, someone doesn't understand why I made the edits I made.


This happening is described in the [[Smash Ball]] article, so I'm not sure if it needs to be added here. For the record, it happens if your Final Smash is not yet loaded and you press the button. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] ([[User talk:Toomai|talk]]) 17:19, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
1. "New" and "debuting" are almost never good words to use in an encyclopedia article?  What'll happen if/when SSB4 comes out?  It won't be so "new" anymore then. Even if not, the usage of "new" just won't apply anyways once Brawl ages.


== Image/table location and wording ==
2. There's more than one Final Smash.


It doesn't matter if it's too small necessarily, it gives a general idea, and if somebody's really curious, they can click on it, As for the location, it should be beside the table, other wise it looks strange being on the right side with a blank left margin, so I put in that location at 400px, which is enough to be beside it, and give a general idea of the picture.'''[[User:Smorekingxg456|<span style="color:#FF1493">Smoreking</span>]]<small><sup>[[User Talk:Smorekingxg456#Top|<span style="color:#FF0000">(T)</span>]]</sup></small><small><sub> [[Special:Contributions/Smorekingxg456|(c)]]</sub></small>''' 01:30, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
3. I put "in comparison to most other attacks" because it gives the sentence a comparison.  I could say that a regular smash attack is "incredibly powerful" depending on what I mean by "incredibly powerful".


:I just thought it looked better as it was. '''[[User:Gutripper|<span style="color:orange">Gutripper</span>]][[User Talk:Gutripper|<small><sup><span style="color:Black">Speak</span></sup></small>]]'''
4. Final Smashes DO NOT auto-kill every time it hits.  This is easily demonstrable with the game.  Try using Galaxia Darkness on a fresh (0%) character.


::Care to say why? And until you do, leave it at the 400px right.'''[[User:Smorekingxg456|<span style="color:#5F9EA0">Smoreking</span>]]<small><sup>[[User Talk:Smorekingxg456#Top|<span style="color:#00FF00">(T)</span>]]</sup></small><small><sub> [[Special:Contributions/Smorekingxg456|(c)]]</sub></small>''' 22:02, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
5. I made the last paragraph much more concise. Is that a crime?


== "types" ==
6. You can describe the PFS on [[Pity Final Smash|its respective page]].
I don't particularly like how the FS types are arranged. Why is Konga Beat considered "focused"? I think it would be a better idea to sort them by how much control they have, like this:

! style="width: 12em" | Final Smash

|-
| [[Ice Climbers (SSBB)|Ice Climbers]] || [[Iceberg]] || Automatic
|-

|}


And so on. Aimed means it hits in a certain way that needs precise aim: for example, Light Arrow, once you press the button, has no control, but you must have targets in the range. Controlled is when the attack itself works on its own, but requires additional input, like Snake's. Automatic means that you just "fire and forget", such as PK Starstorm. And Transformation would include ROB, the Landmasters, and any other FS where you actually can move the character itself around during the FS. - [[User:Gargomon251|Gargomon251]] ([[User talk:Gargomon251|talk]]) 15:26, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
Why does peach blossom lack ko ability?  Have you seen it used on a scrolling stage? Not to mention that you can smash opponents at your leisure.
:That's an interesting idea - your system classifies Final Smashes by what the user has to do, while the current system groups them by how they should be avoided. That's why Konga Beat is Focused - targets can avoid the move by being far enough away. (Yes, "far enough away" may be impossible depending on the stage, but that's not the point.) Personally, I would prefer to keep the current system, as Galaxia Darkness and Mario Finale - which would both be classified as Aimed under your idea - are significantly different in operation and strategy.

::What about characters like Kirby? His is trapping AND stage-wide. DK's can become trapping as well as focused and directional. See how confusing it gets? - [[User:Gargomon251|Gargomon251]] ([[User talk:Gargomon251|talk]]) 01:26, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
:::I think you're generalizing a bit. A FS does not become Trapping because it can suck targets in for multiple hits; a Trapping FS is one for which the target is (almost) guarenteed to take every hit once the first one lands. Therefore Konga Beat cannot be considered Trapping. It's also not Directional, since it has no blind spot - yes, the largest part of the attack only works in two directions at a time, but there's no guarentee you're safe at a specific angle. As for Cook Kirby, it can't really be considered Stage-Wide since it can be avoided at a distance. By that logic, Cook Kirby ''could'' be considered Focused, since it attacks everything in a range. However, it fits the description of Trapping better, since the first "hit" determines whether it touches you at all.

The Final Smashes are ridiculously unbalanced. Now, I'm the type who likes playing with items, hates Final Destination, etc... but characters like Sonic, Dedede, and Wolf have an extremely easy time getting the smash ball. Not only that, but they all have Final Smashes that they can pull off at any moment, making it nearly impossible to knock it out of them in time (as opposed to Ike, Meta Knight, Link, or even Mario who need to aim before using their Final Smash). In addition, their Final Smashes are immensely powerful (well, not Dedede so much, but it's still pretty much guaranteed to get one or two KO's) while characters like Mario or Link don't have particularly damaging final smashes.

You make it sound like I haven't tested this, go ahead, set items to none, enter say a 5 minute match with Captain Falcon and the damage ratio set to 2. Then use Raptor Boost to kill the other guy over and over until he gets a Pity Final Smash. It really works, I'm not making it up like you say I am.

Is this trapping, or focused? [[User:Mr. Anon|<font color="grey">'''Mr. '''</font><font color="midnightblue">'''Anon'''</font>]][[File:MatchupUnknown.png|23px|link=Special:Random]][[User talk:Mr. Anon|''<span style="color: black;">talk</span>'']]  21:08, 30 September 2011 (EDT)
== In The Bridge? ==
:It's trapping because it delivers a "hit" that catches opponents and lays down an inescapable beating. It's just that unlike most trapping Final Smashes the catch range is pretty big.

== ? ==
I've preformed a glitch exactly like the Puff Up glitch, exept it's with Donkey Kong. You do his Final Smash while the Bridge is rebuilding itself (on the Bridge of Eldin) and Donkey Kong while remain in the bridge after it is done rebuilding. Has anyone found this out yet?[[User:Amycats2|Amycats2]] ([[User talk:Amycats2|talk]]) 17:43, 19 June 2008 (UTC)


I thought Zero suit Samus' final smash was trapping, and Meta Knight's was focused. Lucario's is controllable isn't it? And Jigglpuff's could be Stage-Wide if her's is preformed on a stage like the [[Final Destination]]. Also Snake's is controllable too, and if it will be classified as stage-wide so should Lucario's be stage-wide as well? [[User:Link PWNS|You got PNW'D by Link]] [[File:Link1.jpg|20px]]
== Origins and inspirations ==
:Trapping Final Smashes cannot be escaped if the first hit gets you, that's why MK's is and ZSS's isn't. Being Stage-Wide should not depend on the size of the stage, so that's why Jigglypuff's is Focused.
:Lucario's and Snake's are a bit funny, but they do fit into their current categories: Lucario fires a beam in a single direction that can be controlled, and Snake covers the whole stage and leaves no hiding spots.

==Mega Lucario Debate==
Shouldn't we write down the origins and inspirations for the Final Smashes. I mean, every Final Smash varies from a facet of its character? What do you think about it? [[User:Leader Vladimir|Leader Vladimir]]


It has come to my attention that there is a huge debate among Smash fans as to whether or not Mega Lucario is Lucario's Final Smash in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.  The SmashWiki is affected by this, as people will either keep adding or removing Mega Lucario from the list of Final Smashes.  However, I think it is suitable to hold a discussion (or a petition, if you will).
==uhh==
 
isn't this kind of small for something that should probably be... well... a ''bigger'' article? and also, should we put anything down about those final smashes in the original ssb? im talking about how they found raichu & wigglytuff in there (obviously the final smashes) and of course that thing with ness where you can get the screen to be really (really) big, constituting pk starstorm posssibly? maybe all these things ''aren't'' final smashes but don't you think they should at least be mentioned? [[User:Kperfekt722|Kperfekt722]] ([[User talk:Kperfekt722|talk]]) 00:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
I hold the opinion that Lucario's new Final Smash is going to be Mega Lucario.  It has not been outright confirmed, but there is evidence to support my claim.  We all know that Charizard's new Final Smash is going to be Mega Charizard X.  And because we know that Mega Lucario is going to be in the game, it stands to reason that Lucario would follow a similar pattern.  However, I have heard other reasons for the transformation, such as Lucario transforming upon reaching a certain point in terms of damage.
 
If you are one who agrees with my claim, please write your username on the appropriate list.  If you disagree, please put your username on the appropriate list, and give a reason why you disagree with my claim.  Also, if the list reaches more than 5 people, feel free to add numbers when needed.
 
The polls close on Monday, May 26th (Memorial Day).  If enough people are against me, then I will leave this page as is.  If enough people are supporting me, then I will be changing the page. If there is a tie, or no votes at all, I will still change the page, and leave a solution to be determined.

#JohnnyWellens - I don't think it's his Final Smash personally. I think Sakurai was very casual with some characters and their final smashes and it seems odd that he'd put so much focus on Lucario, mention his Mega Evolution but just not mention that it's his Final Smash. I think he's leaving it open to keep people guessing, I feel like if it was his Final Smash he'd just say it, otherwise there's no point to leaving it open-ended. And I think it makes sense with Lucario's aura mechanic that he'd transform (not a full on Zelda-Sheik transformation) once he reaches his aura peak. I'm open to being wrong, just my opinion at this point. <span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS; font-size:10pt">[[User:Johnnywellens|<span style="color:forestgreen">JohnnyWellens</span>]]</span> 09:42, 23 May 2014 (EDT)

== Lucario and Dedede Final Smash update ==
 
Someone in Japan got photos of a Smash 3DS guidebook here: http://www.inside-games.jp/article/2014/09/05/80255.html It seems to confirm Mega Lucario as a Final Smash and shows that Dedede has a new Final Smash for this game.

:Dedede's was noted on his talk page, and I relayed the info to the FS list. As for Lucario, the image seemed to be too far away to make any details.

:: I can discern red feet in the picture ([[http://img.inside-games.jp/imgs/morezoom/509138.jpg here]]), which only Mega Lucario has. Final Smash name is five characters long, and closely matches the Japanese name for Mega Evolution (メガシンカ). The Japanese name for Lucario's Final Smash is seven characters long (はどうのあらし) and none of the characters in the image resemble that at all. At least, Lucario does have a new Final Smash.

The game comes with a fold-out sheet that has names for all the starters' special moves and Final Smashes, which for at least my Canadian version (which always matches the US), all match the list at the top of this section (except for the capitalization "Super PAC-MAN"). So yes, I think we can move them now. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Jiggy 16:16, 3 October 2014 (EDT)

== Organization for the list ==
 
I think we need to make the list non-sortable. If you sort it by final smash name or type, it's nearly impossible to figure out why only one of Pit's Final Smashes are listed (because the two are so far apart). Which also applies to other characters (ROB, Dedede, Kirby, etc.) So instead, I think we should list it more like the [[Character customization]] table (but way neater). So it's in order by universe, but with characters who have multiple final smashes being two cells long.

== Unnamed Final Smash Names ==
 
So, on the different pages that are titled "''unnamed''" on this page (i.e. [[Duck Hunt's Final Smash]]), there is a name for each Final Smash from the Prima guide for {{for3ds}}.

== Just out of curiosity... ==
 
Wouldn't Dark Pit's and Zelda/Sheik's Final Smashes be considered trapping instead of directional? Because, going off of a previous description of a Trapping Final Smash (as stated by Toomai), "the first 'hit' determines whether or not you get hit." Dark Pit's Final Smash and the Light Arrow fit right in that category.

:It's debatable. On the other hand, the move continues even if the initial hit doesn't get anyone, and the move is conceptually "I'll fire in this direction and hit anything in the way" as opposed to "I'll grab everyone in this area and wail on them several times".

== Final Smashes in Wii U ==
 
A video of the Final Smashes in the Wii U version. There appears to be a difference in damage that what's listed in each characters SSB4 profiles in case anyone's still editing those. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tk5zWBCNu2E  [[Special:Contributions/72.50.83.52|72.50.83.52]] 09:55, 8 November 2014 (EST)
:I honestly don't think there would be a difference in damage between versions. The two games are basically the same, just on different systems with different modes and stages.

I know, but what's listed in some of the characters profile doesn't seem to match the video. Like for example, Marth's once said his Final Smash does 64 damage, but the video shows it capping at 60.[[Special:Contributions/72.50.83.52|72.50.83.52]] 12:28, 8 November 2014 (EST)
 
Also, Mario's profile said the max damage for his final smash is 31, but the video showed it doing 33, as well as the total damage ultimately depending on how long a character stays trapped in the flames.[[Special:Contributions/72.50.83.52|72.50.83.52]] 12:33, 8 November 2014 (EST)
:I don't know why Marth's said 64, but last time I checked, it does 60 in the 3DS version too. As for Mario, your two statements cancel each other out, because if the damage depends on how long you keep the opponent in the flames, then it shouldn't matter if it tops out at 31 or 33.

== Just Asking ==
 
I was considering putting trivia on Pichu, Young Link, and Roy's pages that they're the only characters without Final Smashes (since I thought three was a small enough number), but could I count PM in the trivia, thus making it only Pichu and Young Link without Final Smashes, which is more notable. Would this be appropriate or not, since PM is basically only mentioned on the pages completely relevant to it. <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]]. Or maybe [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta.]] </small> 12:36, 8 November 2014 (EST)
:Excluding Roy because he has a Final Smash in PM should not be done, as PM is not mainspace. However, I'm not sure that trivia is even notable, as the reason they don't have Final Smashes is because they never appeared in games past Melee. [[User:FirstaLasto|<font color="pink">♡</font>'''Firsta'''Lasto<font color="pink">♥</font>]] 12:40, 8 November 2014 (EST)
::Even if you did include PM in there, then you could eliminate Squirtle and Ivysaur, because neither of them have Final Smashes in PM. That said, they are a part of [[Triple Finish]], so idk.

I'm going to propose that the Final Smash "types" we currently have in use be removed. There's too many Final Smashes that don't fit neatly into these very limiting categories, and there's not really an official basis or anything for them either.

Feel free to totally reject the idea, but what if there was a "yes/no" labeling of final smashes?  I saw a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGxotDwyqFc, and I was wondering, what if we defined final smashes by those that can do fixed damage and KO at certain percentages (akin to those seen in the video) vs ones that don't and are more erratic in nature and can perform differently based on additional player input (Peach) or random output (WFT)?
