A '''double jump''' is a mid-air [[jumping|jump]] that can be used once every time the user is airborne. Just like the single jump, double jumping is achieved by hitting up on the control pad/stick or hitting the jump button. | A '''double jump''' is a mid-air [[jumping|jump]] that can be used once every time the user is airborne.

The nature of double jumps may seem strange with many characters, as most of the characters in the Smash Bros. series are incapable of double jumping in their own games. However, upon close observation, players may notice a slight ripple appearing underneath a character right after he or she double jumps. It can be concluded that when a character double jumps, a small, invisible platform appears for the character to jump off briefly, giving them a slight boost. Characters like [[Jigglypuff (SSBB)|Jigglypuff]], [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede]] and [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby]], who can puff themselves up to fly higher without the use of a platform, do not use the platform. The new Brawl characters with wings, [[Pit (SSBB)|Pit]], [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]], and [[Charizard (SSBB)|Charizard]], also do not use the platform, but simply flap their wings. Curiously, [[R.O.B. (SSBB)|R.O.B.]] is the only no multiple jumps character who doesn't use the mentioned platform. If watched carefully, a "smoke platform" can be seen under R.O.B.'s base after the second jump, meaning that he used a little boost from his [[Robo Burner]] to gain a mid air jump and cover more distance. | The nature of double jumps may seem strange with many characters, as most of the characters in the Smash Bros. series are incapable of double jumping in their own games.

In addition, both [[Ness (SSBB)|Ness]] and [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]] use their [[PSI]] powers to gain their Double Jumps, and Yoshi uses the lift generated by kicking his legs to double jump. | ||
