Snorlax (カビゴン, Kabigon in Japanese language versions) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise. It appears as a Poké Ball Pokémon in all three Smash Bros. games.

In Super Smash Bros.

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Snorlax uses Body Slam as his attack. Snorlax jumps in the air and disappears off the screen. Snorlax will then inflate himself and descend towards the bottom of the screen. Any character that makes contact with Snorlax will take damage. Snorlax also destroys certain things on a stage. He will destroy items like Bob-ombs and Motion-sensor Bombs. If Snorlax gets hit by an attack that's strong enough before he jumps he will jump diagonally. Snorlax's attack does not harm the summoner.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

Snorlax in SSBM

Snorlax returns in Melee with exactly the same functionality.

As a stage element

A giant balloon of Snorlax (in actuality the 3D model of Snorlax used in Pokémon Stadium for Nintendo 64) is one of the many floating and bending "platforms" that comprise the Poké Floats stage. The balloon's belly raises and lowers as if "breathing".

As a trophy

Snorlax features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various Single-player Regular Matches. It reads as follows:

Snorlax

Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 880 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weight in at over 1,000 pounds.

Note that this trophy description is anachronistic; following Melee, even heavier Pokémon were introduced, with the current record-holder for Pokémon weight being Groudon at 2,094 pounds (several glitch Pokémon, namely "Missingno." and "h Poké", are even heavier, weighing in at up to 6,099 pounds, but this is likely non-canon). It is now lighter than four other Pokémon (one of two forms) making it the sixth heaviest canon Pokémon including alternate forms.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Snorlax returns in Brawl with exactly the same functionality, making it the only Poké Ball Pokémon other than Goldeen to appear in all 3 installments with an attack not changed or given to another Pokémon. Oddly enough, its baby pre-evolution (Munchlax) is also in Brawl.

As a Trophy

A Sleeping Pokémon. It's the ultimate loafer. Sometimes children like to play on top of its big belly. Once in a slumber, not even the hardest rain or the fiercest wind will wake it. Snorlax recovers health and restores its physical state by sleeping, and it proves daunting with its damaging Snore attack. Snorlax is the king of Sleeping Pokémon.
