The time that the character can cling to the wall for decreases each time the they perform a wall cling without touching the ground. For the first two wall clings, the character can stick for up to 3 seconds, and on consecutive clings the time is divided in half.

[[Corrin]] and [[Sephiroth]] both have attacks that can be used as a pseudo-wall cling, [[Dragon Lunge]] and forward aerial respectively. While not being true wall clings, they can be used in similar ways and achieve similar results. If [[Luigi]] charges [[Green Missile]] for long enough or misfires into a wall, his head gets stuck for a period of time, also acting as a pseudo-wall cling.

Various ''Smash'' fighters have used wall clinging in their source games. In ''Kirby Super Star'', when [[Kirby]] had the Ninja copy ability, he had the ability to wall cling.  In other games, such as ''Super Mario Galaxy'' and ''Metroid Prime 2: Echoes'', [[Mario]] and [[Samus]] could stick to walls temporarily if they were in the process of wall jumping; however, this would only last for a second or two before they slid downwards. In ''Super Mario Odyssey'', [[Yoshi]] could wall cling after sticking his tongue at a wall surface. However, none of these four characters can wall cling in Smash.

Diddy Kong, as well as Dixie, could situationally wall cling in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', as he could stick to honey-covered walls in {{iw|mariowiki|Hornet Hole}} and he has the same animation in ''[[Brawl]]'' for wall jumping from that game. He can also  cling and crawl on grass-surface walls and ceilings in some of the levels in ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', such as {{iw|mariowiki|King of Cling}} and {{iw|mariowiki|Grassland Groove}}. [[Bayonetta]]'s ability to wall cling is likely based on the Witch Walk ability from [[Bayonetta (universe)|her home series]], which allows Umbra Witches to walk on walls in moonlight.

Link is capable of clinging onto and climbing walls in ''The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild'', but he can't in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.
