'''Super Pac-Man''' ({{ja|スーパーパックマン|Sūpā Pakkuman}}, ''Super Pac-Man''), also stylized '''Super PAC-MAN''', is [[Pac-Man]]'s [[Final Smash]].  It utilizes his wedge form.
'''Super Pac-Man''' ({{ja|スーパーパックマン|Sūpā Pakkuman}}, ''Super Pac-Man''), stylized as '''Super PAC-MAN''' or '''SUPER PAC-MAN''' in the [[NTSC]] release of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', is [[Pac-Man]]'s [[Final Smash]].  It utilizes his wedge form.


==Overview==
==Overview==
In this Final Smash, Pac-Man simultaneously eats a Power Pellet and a Super Pellet<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzzKdYSdQmA</ref>, which makes him transform him into his classic two-dimensional form and larger. While the Final Smash is active, the sound when Pac-Man consumes a Power Pellet plays on a loop. Super Pac-Man can move anywhere in the air, but only in 90-degree angles, and if Super Pac-Man moves off the edge of the screen he wraps around to the other side of the stage<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C31wO-fT0RE</ref>, both similar to mechanics in his home series. However, if he tries to go off the top of a stage when the bottom extends past the blast line at that point, he will get stuck at the [[blast line]]. If Super Pac-Man runs into a wall, he will stop chomping until moved in a direction without a wall, and touching him will not deal any damage.
In this Final Smash, Pac-Man simultaneously eats a Power Pellet and a Super Pellet, which causes him to transform into his classic two-dimensional form and grow in size in the same manner as ''{{s|wikipedia|Super Pac-Man}}''. While the Final Smash is active, the sound when Pac-Man consumes a Power Pellet plays on a loop.


Each opponent "eaten" gets dealt 15% and moderate knockback, and they become a pair of floating "ghost" eyes as they get knocked back. Once the opponent is out of [[hitstun]], they turn back into their normal self until Super Pac-Man eats them again. Super Pac-Man's chomps don't KO onstage opponents until 140%, but because Super Pac-Man is not subject to gravity very little can stop him from chasing chomped opponents offstage past the [[blast line]].

Super Pac-Man's chomps don't KO onstage opponents until 140% but, because Super Pac-Man is not subject to gravity, very little can stop him from chasing chomped opponents offstage past the blast line.
 
The Final Smash returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' with a significant overhaul: Pac-Man automatically moves forward and loops around the screen. Super Pac-Man deals 20% instead of 14% and has higher knockback growth, but lower base knockback. Each loop causes Pac-Man to speed up, with the final dash slowing down significantly, creates afterimages behind him, and deals more damage (28%) though with slightly less knockback. The player can tilt the control stick in any direction and Pac-Man will gradually adjust his trajectory to that direction. Pac-Man can also eat items while in this form.


When an opponent is consumed, a point value appears, like when Pac-Man eats ghosts in his home series. Consuming the first opponent gives 200 points, then 400, then 800, then 1600, then 3200, then all subsequent eaten opponents yield 7650. The point value is completely aesthetic, showing nothing more than how many opponents Pac-Man has eaten; however, achieving 7650 points is required to complete the [[Event match|event]] "[[The Big 7650!]]" in ''SSB4'' and a challenge in ''Ultimate''.

The Final Smash returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' with a significant overhaul: Pac-Man automatically moves forward and loops around the screen at a diagonal angle. The player has no direct control over Pac-Man but can gradually adjust his trajectory by tilting the control stick up or down. Pac-Man can also eat items while in this form.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*While Pac-Man eats a Power Pellet in performing this move, [[ghosts]] on [[Pac-Maze]] or summoned from an [[Assist Trophy]] do not turn blue. In fact, if Pac-Man is under the effect of a Power Pellet from Pac-Maze, its effects will actually disappear when using Super Pac-Man.
*Despite consuming a Power Pellet, Super Pac-Man does not allow Pac-Man to eat the [[ghosts]] on [[Pac-Maze]] or those summoned from an [[Assist Trophy]], as the Power Pellet in this move is purely aesthetic.
*In this Final Smash's trophy, Luigi's cap can be seen while Luigi himself is a pair of eyes, despite not happening in gameplay.

*An error in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' causes one of Pac-Man's victory animations to be slightly altered when the Final Smash is used: the error in particular turns the Super Pac-Man form of Pac-Man invisible, leading to Pac-Man spontaneously appearing rather than transforming back into his normal self.
*In ''Ultimate'', the damage increase caused by the use of [[spirit]]s is treated as a base damage increase by the knockback formula. Because of this, Super Pac-Man's knockback is considerably more affected by boosts from Spirits than other Final Smashes are.
*Oddly enough, the initial animation of this Final Smash in ''Ultimate'' doesn't have Pac-Man holding any Power Pellet or Super Pellet anymore, as opposed to how it was in ''Smash 4'', although he still has the animation of him eating them from the latter, appearing as he's only eating air in ''Ultimate'' before transforming into Super Pac-Man.
