*Some taunts have become popular on the Internet, for both the character's motion or phrase spoken, and the mocking purpose they are used for. Some infamous examples are [[Captain Falcon]]'s "Show me your moves!", [[Falco]]'s "Hands off my prey!" (often misinterpreted as "Hands off my bread!"), or [[Sonic]]'s "You're too slow!". [[Taunt match]]es often involve irritating serious players with these type of taunts, and other annoying or provocative taunts have also been used frequently, such as [[Kirby]]'s "Hi!" taunt or [[Ness]]'s "Okay.". | *Some taunts have become popular on the Internet, for both the character's motion or phrase spoken, and the mocking purpose they are used for.

**Some lines were already popular within their respective communities before their addition in ''Smash Bros''; for example, [[Inkling]] Girl's side taunt (where she utters "Woomy!")

**Falco’s "Piece of cake!" and "Hands off my prey!" taunts are additionally notorious in ''Ultimate'' due to them appearing as though Falco says "piece of cock" or "hands off my cock" when interrupting one of the taunts | **Falco’s "Piece of cake!" and "Hands off my prey!" taunts are additionally notorious in ''Ultimate'' due to them appearing as though Falco says "piece of cock" or "hands off my cock" when interrupting one of the taunts with a down smash right before Falco says "cake" or "prey". | ||
*In ''SSB'', it can be seen that members of the [[Kirby Team]] won't lose their copied abilities even if they taunt. In ''Melee'', the Kirbys with copied abilities in Adventure Mode do lose their abilities, but the Kirbys taunting is extremely rare, even though other CPU Kirbys do so as frequently as normal CPUs. | *In ''SSB'', it can be seen that members of the [[Kirby Team]] won't lose their copied abilities even if they taunt.

**In ''SSB'', it can also be seen that non-playable characters (excepting {{SSB|Master Hand}}) have taunts identical to their original character. For example, Metal Mario grows and shrinks just as Mario does. | **In ''SSB'', it can also be seen that non-playable characters (excepting {{SSB|Master Hand}}) have taunts identical to their original character.

*The phrase "Come on" is the most common phrase in taunts, being used by seven characters: [[Pit]] (from ''SSB4'' onwards), [[Sonic]] (from ''SSB4'' onwards), [[Captain Falcon]], [[Fox]] (prior to ''Ultimate''), {{SSBU|Falco}} (in ''Ultimate''), {{SSBU|Chrom}}, and [[Ryu]]. Variations of "Come on" are also used by other characters: "Come at me!" is used by three characters ([[Lucina]], Chrom, and {{SSBU|Fox}} in ''Ultimate''), "Come" is used by two ([[Meta Knight]] and {{SSBU|Simon}}), and {{SSBB|Sonic}} has a unique variant in ''Brawl'' ("Come on, step it up!"). [[Terry]] also says “Hey come on come on" | *The phrase "Come on" is the most common phrase in taunts, being used by seven characters: [[Pit]] (from ''SSB4'' onwards), [[Sonic]] (from ''SSB4'' onwards), [[Captain Falcon]], [[Fox]] (prior to ''Ultimate''), {{SSBU|Falco}} (in ''Ultimate''), {{SSBU|Chrom}}, and [[Ryu]].

*In ''Melee'', after a CPU KOs an opponent, if it gets KO'd, and the opponent is away just as the CPU comes out of the revival platform, it will walk a distance and apparently taunt for no reason. This can be exploited with characters that have long taunts, notably {{SSBM|Young Link}}. | *In ''Melee'', after a CPU KOs an opponent, if it gets KO'd, and the opponent is away just as the CPU comes out of the revival platform, it will walk a distance and apparently taunt for no reason.

*Starting in ''Brawl'', Captain Falcon’s down taunt (“show me your moves!”) animation is slightly faster if he is facing left/away from the screen. | *Starting in ''Brawl'', Captain Falcon’s down taunt (“show me your moves!”) animation is slightly faster if he is facing left/away from the screen. | ||
