There are a few [[attack]]s in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] that are '''magic'''-based.
'''Magic''' is an attack [[type]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] that encompasses magical attacks. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', there is an effect that is also known as '''Magic'''. The type and effect are entirely separate: for example, a move can be [[Leg]]-type with a Magic effect, Magic-type with a [[Darkness]] effect, or even Magic-type with a Magic effect.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', magic was purely a [[type]], and so attacks could not be both Magic and [[Leg]] (for example). They were boosted by Magic Attack [[sticker]]s and tended to be [[electric]].
Magic-type attacks (but not attacks with a magic effect) are boosted by Magic Attack [[sticker]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''{{'}}s [[The Subspace Emissary]] and the [[Spirit]] skill or trait Magic Attack ↑ as well as certain [[Spirit Battle]] [[conditions]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Magic-type attacks are resisted by the Support Spirit skill Magic Resist ↑.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', magic remains a type, but it can also be an [[effect]], which produces glittery visuals on hit. As a result, attacks can now be Leg/Magic, Weapon/Magic, or even Magic/Magic.

Note that the concept of type does not exist in games prior to ''Brawl'', so only those characters' movesets are included in this list.

Magic is an attack type in the Super Smash Bros. series that encompasses magical attacks. In Super Smash Bros. 4 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, there is an effect that is also known as Magic. The type and effect are entirely separate: for example, a move can be Leg-type with a Magic effect, Magic-type with a Darkness effect, or even Magic-type with a Magic effect.

Magic-type attacks (but not attacks with a magic effect) are boosted by Magic Attack stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's The Subspace Emissary and the Spirit skill or trait Magic Attack ↑ as well as certain Spirit Battle conditions in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Magic-type attacks are resisted by the Support Spirit skill Magic Resist ↑.
