Using the move causes | Using the move causes Diddy Kong to toss a [[Banana Peel]] over his shoulder behind him. This move can either be used with a tilt or [[smash attack|smash]] input, with the latter causing the Banana Peel to be thrown at a faster speed and in a higher arc. Like the standard Banana Peel item, Diddy can pick up and throw it at opponents to deal a small amount of damage and cause them to [[trip]], or leave it on the ground and cause them to trip if they make contact with it. | ||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', it is common to slip on a banana peel, and then land on it once again. Since | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', it is common to slip on a banana peel, and then land on it once again. Since the Banana Peels are owned by Diddy, he cannot be tripped up by them unless someone else picks them up. Only two Banana Peels can be in play for each Diddy Kong; if he tries to use this move with two Banana Peels on the field already, he will perform the animation but another banana will not come out. Diddy can also [[glide toss]] his Banana Peels, among many other advanced techniques, such as glide-tossing them down to reposition them on the stage, often called "dribbling". The versatility of Diddy Kong's Banana Peels make them quite useful for both offensive and defensive means, as well as stage control, being one of the primary reasons for Diddy's top [[tier]] placement in ''Brawl''. | ||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', both the move and its associated item have been weakened. Diddy | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', both the move and its associated item have been weakened. Diddy can only have one peel out at a time; trying to create a second results in a new animation where he shrugs after the throwing motion, which has more [[ending lag]]. The peels also disappear after they hit or slip an opponent once, or after they are thrown twice. While the move is still very effective for landing grabs and scoring KOs, this makes it much less central to Diddy's playstyle compared to ''Brawl''. Additionally, after throwing a Banana Peel, there is a period of 12 [[frame]]s before Diddy can generate another, even if the previous one already has disappeared. However, this interval is extremely short and thus practically never comes into play. | ||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the move works similar to how it does in ''Smash 4'', | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the move works similar to how it does in ''Smash 4'', except the peel can hit opponents twice before disappearing, improving its utility. However, the aforementioned period between generating peels was significantly increased in [[update]]s, going from 12 to 61 frames in {{SSBU|8.0.0}}, then from 61 to 85 frames in {{SSBU|11.0.0}}. Prior to this, Diddy could perform an [[Infinite#Diddy Kong Banana Infinite|infinite]] named the "Pyramid Scheme", by repeatedly recatching the peel and throwing it through a [[soft platform]] onto the opponent. As of the updates, however, attempting to throw a new peel immediately to keep opponents trapped will fail, allowing them to escape. | ||
===Item toss specifics=== | |||
Banana Peels are thrown by this move at an angle of 105°, with a strength of 2.2 for a tilt input, and 3.036 for a smash input, both multiplied by Diddy's item toss strength of 0.966667× (except in ''Brawl''). Interestingly, the move can still be used if Diddy already has an [[item]] on his hands, unlike other item-generating special moves such as the [[Link]]s' {{b|Bomb|Link}}s. In ''Brawl'', the item remains on his hands and he still throws a Banana Peel (or fails to do so if two already exist), while in ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', he throws both items at once, with the held item before the Banana Peel (or simply the held item if a peel cannot be generated). In this case, the thrown item follows the same speed and arc as if the Banana Peel was thrown, depending on whether a tilt or smash input is used. | |||
Per the [[Item throw#Formula|item throw damage formula]], which considers the throw as dropping the item, the damage dealt by it is equal to <code>base damage * 0.5 + base damage modifier + speed damage multiplier * toss strength</code>, where the toss strengths are as defined prior. As an example, for a [[Capsule]], the formula is <code>8 * 0.5 - 0.4 + 3 * toss strength</code>, dealing approximately 9.98% with a tilt throw, and 12.4% with a smash throw. In the case of the Banana Peel, this formula can be simplified to <code>1 + 1.7 * toss strength</code>. | |||

*This is the only special move in the series with smash input functionality to not be a [[side special]]. | |||
