Kirby (SSB4)/Up throw

Hitbox visualization showing Kirby's up throw.

Overview

Kirby holds the foe and rapidly soars to the sky, past the upper blast line. He then rockets back down to the ground, creating an explosive slam. Because Kirby jumps up, it can land onto platforms above him. It is his strongest throw, KOing at 160%, and one of the strongest up throws in the game.

The attack is based on the Air Drop from the Ninja ability in Kirby Super Star.
