-The '''Power Meter''' ({{ja|K.O.ゲージ|Kei Ō Gēji}}, ''K.O. Gauge'') is a special mechanic unique to {{SSB4|Little Mac}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' that is shown above his [[damage meter]]. It is filled as Little Mac takes or deals damage (even to [[shield]]s), and each level of charge (represented by the color of the bar) plays a soft, specific sound to notify the player of its charge. Once the bar is full, a loud bell sound reminiscent of those in a boxing ring plays, and the bar becomes a flashing "K.O." sign, causing his [[neutral special move]], the [[Straight Lunge]], to be replaced with a powerful move named the '''[[Straight Lunge#KO Uppercut|KO Uppercut]]'''. While intended to be a [[one-hit KO]] per its name, its base [[knockback]] is not quite high enough to OHKO at 0%, and reaches [[KO]] potential at about 30% when performed on the ground, although this is dependent on the [[weight]] of the character; the lightest character, {{SSB4|Jigglypuff}}, can start getting KO'd at 12%.
+The '''Power Meter''' ({{ja|K.O.ゲージ|Kei Ō Gēji}}, ''K.O. Gauge'') is a [[passive ability]] unique to {{SSB4|Little Mac}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' that is shown above his [[damage meter]]. It is filled as Little Mac takes or deals damage (even to [[shield]]s), and each level of charge (represented by the color of the bar) plays a soft, specific sound to notify the player of its charge. Once the bar is full, a loud bell sound reminiscent of those in a boxing ring plays, and the bar becomes a flashing "K.O." sign, causing his [[neutral special move]], the [[Straight Lunge]], to be replaced with a powerful move named the '''[[Straight Lunge#KO Uppercut|KO Uppercut]]'''.

 The meter is emptied when the KO Uppercut move is used, successfully or not, and immediately empties once the player presses the special button, meaning it can be depleted if the player spams the special button during [[hitstun]]. The meter will also be emptied if Little Mac is KO'd, takes a hit that causes him to [[tumble]] (except for the first four seconds after reaching full meter), or traverses through a door in [[Smash Run]].
