The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Wall of Pain (abbreviated "WoP") is a Jigglypuff strategy of constantly barraging the opponent with aerial attacks, while exploiting Jigglypuff's horizontal air maneuverability. Each attack should go forward in the air, then once you hit your opponent, back to where you started. This allows for quick attacks and keeps you out of range from any retaliations.
Tetsuya and AOB were the earliest prominent users of the technique, and they are largely responsible for its widespread use (see PuffStuff). The term "Wall of Pain" was coined by Smash World Forums administrator and retired smasher Amorasaki, a longtime friend of AOB. One of the most famous examples, commonly demonstrated by pro smasher King, is the use of Jigglypuff's multiple back airs to juggle an opponent off the stage, horizontally.
