A '''Crate''' ({{ja|箱|Hako}}, ''Box'') is an [[item]] that has appeared in every game in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. Crates are containers which can hold various different items or up to three of the same item. Because Crates are very heavy, a character who has picked up a Crate will not be able to jump or attack at all while holding it. After being picked up, a Crate can be thrown in any regular direction (up, forward, backward, or down). Crates are very similar to [[Barrel]]s.

Crates are containers which can hold various different items or up to three of the same item. Because Crates are very heavy, a character who has picked up a Crate will not be able to jump or attack at all while holding it, and they cannot be picked up in mid-air. After being picked up, a Crate can be thrown in any regular direction (up, forward, backward, or down). Crates are very similar to [[Barrel]]s.


'''Exploding Crates''' are "dud" Crates that do not contain items and explode when destroyed, delivering strong damage and knockback to players caught in the explosion, even to the player who threw the crate. In all four games, every crate has a one in eight chance of being an exploding crate.

==Rolling Crates==
[[File:Rolling Crate SSBB.png|thumb|The Rolling Crate in action.]]
Rolling Crates are a type of Crate that first appeared in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. These Crates are identified by their tiny, black wheels on the bottom, and can oftentimes go unnoticed. They also always spawn at the same angle, unlike normal crates. If a player hits this Crate without destroying it, it will start sliding in the direction it was hit. Characters hit by the Rolling Crate will take damage and knockback depending on the speed of the Crate, and the Crate normally breaks. Characters can stand on them, even when in motion.

In the original game, a character who has picked up a crate will not be able to move at all (in addition to being unable to jump or attack). However, [[Donkey Kong (SSB)|Donkey Kong]] exclusively has a special ability allowing him to move and jump freely while holding a Crate.

Characters (other than Donkey Kong) carrying a Crate can now move very slowly while holding it, but cannot walk off ledges; if the control stick is held down, the character and the Crate will both tumble off the ledge and they will drop the Crate. {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}} retains his ability to move freely while holding Crates and other heavy objects.

In this game, Crates have a small random chance of containing an enemy from [[Adventure Mode]], such as a [[ReDead]], [[Goomba]], or an [[Octorok]]. When they are thrown at opponents, they can deal 18%-22% damage and have a decent amount of knockback.<!-- Uh, does this sentence apply to the Crates or the enemies? -->

|desc=A Crate will release lots of items when it's broken open. It's very heavy, so unless your character is strong, you'll walk slowly while under its burden. You can throw Crates up, down, left, or right, but it's hard to hit opponents because the throwing process takes time. Every now and then, a Crate will explode under duress.

Rolling Crates are a new type of Crate that appear in ''Brawl''. These Crates are identified by their tiny, black wheels on the bottom, and can oftentimes go unnoticed. They also always spawn at the same angle, unlike normal crates. If a player hits this Crate without destroying it, it will start sliding in the direction it was hit. Characters hit by the Rolling Crate will take damage and lots of knockback depending on the speed of the Crate, and the Crate normally breaks. Since characters can stand on top of them, players can take a ride on a Rolling Crate when it's been hit.

|desc=Item holders. You can destroy these to get at the items they contain, but be careful, because they will sometimes explode when broken. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, crates were uniform in design, but this time around, their appearance will change to match the stages. They'll sometimes look futuristic--other times, they'll look like presents with fancy ribbons.

When a rolling crate is destroyed, it will reveal the same sorts of items found in normal crates. You can also jump on a rolling crate for a fun ride.

Crates (including rolling crates) return in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. The futuristic crate now sports a new design, with the ''Smash'' logo on the sides. The present crate has been redesigned as well, with an obvious lid and no horizontal ribbons on the sides.

===''Melee'' trophy===
The {{iw|wikipedia|crate}} is a common real world item, which the ''Smash'' version is directly based off. Usually made of wood or metal, the crate is primarily used as a shipping container for particularly large objects that could easily be damaged outside of an enclosed space.

''A Crate will release lots of items when it's broken open. It's very heavy, so unless your character is strong, you’ll walk slowly while under its burden. You can throw Crates up, down, left or right, but it's hard to hit opponents because the throwing process takes time. Every now and then, a Crate will explode under duress.''

However, what is more obvious is the "cart" that the wheels are attached to, and the fact that Rolling Crates will always be placed squarely on the stage, and never at an angle. Try to destroy these and they will go rolling along, smashing everyone in their path. When a rolling crate is destroyed, it will reveal the same sorts of items found in normal crates. You can also jump on a rolling crate for a fun ride.''

—Super Smash Bros. instruction manual

A Crate (, Box) is an item that has appeared in every game in the Super Smash Bros. series. Crates are containers which can hold various different items or up to three of the same item. Because Crates are very heavy, a character who has picked up a Crate will not be able to jump or attack at all while holding it, and they cannot be picked up in mid-air. After being picked up, a Crate can be thrown in any regular direction (up, forward, backward, or down). Crates are very similar to Barrels.

Exploding Crates are "dud" Crates that do not contain items and explode when destroyed, delivering strong damage and knockback to players caught in the explosion, even to the player who threw the crate. In all five games, every crate has a one in eight chance of being an exploding crate.

Rolling Crates[edit]

The Rolling Crate in action.

Rolling Crates are a type of Crate that first appeared in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. These Crates are identified by their tiny, black wheels on the bottom, and can oftentimes go unnoticed. They also always spawn at the same angle, unlike normal crates. If a player hits this Crate without destroying it, it will start sliding in the direction it was hit. Characters hit by the Rolling Crate will take damage and knockback depending on the speed of the Crate, and the Crate normally breaks. Characters can stand on them, even when in motion.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

Crate's artwork in SSB.

In the original game, a character who has picked up a crate will not be able to move at all (in addition to being unable to jump or attack). However, Donkey Kong exclusively has a special ability allowing him to move and jump freely while holding a Crate.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

Falco carrying a crate in Melee.

Characters (other than Donkey Kong) carrying a Crate can now move very slowly while holding it, but cannot walk off ledges; if the control stick is held down, the character and the Crate will both tumble off the ledge and they will drop the Crate. Donkey Kong retains his ability to move freely while holding Crates and other heavy objects.

In this game, Crates have a small random chance of containing an enemy from Adventure Mode, such as a ReDead, Goomba, or an Octorok. When they are thrown at opponents, they can deal 18%-22% damage and have a decent amount of knockback.

A Crate will release lots of items when it's broken open. It's very heavy, so unless your character is strong, you'll walk slowly while under its burden. You can throw Crates up, down, left, or right, but it's hard to hit opponents because the throwing process takes time. Every now and then, a Crate will explode under duress.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

Crates, along with Barrels, can now have a different appearance depending on the stage played on. On futuristic stages such as Lylat Cruise, they take on a futuristic appearance. On more fantasy-based stages such as Yoshi's Island, the crates will look like wrapped-up presents.[1] Donkey Kong gains knockback-based super armor when carrying a crate, similar to his forward throw.

In Super Smash Bros. 4[edit]

The various crate designs in SSB4.

Crates (including rolling crates) return in Super Smash Bros. 4. The futuristic crate now sports a new design, with the Smash logo on the sides. The present crate has been redesigned as well, with an obvious lid and no horizontal ribbons on the sides.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, for unknown reasons, all familiar stages except for Smashville use the normal wooden design regardless of the crate design they had in Brawl.

Trivia[edit]

  • In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U in update 1.1.0, rarely when a crate is broken, certain items will briefly float in mid-air before falling on the ground.
  • In Brawl and both versions of SSB4, it is possible for a fighter to momentarily perform their "crate pick-up" animation without actually picking the crate up. This only seems to happen if they are a slight distance away or in front of the actual crate.
  • On the image for Milestones in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, blue and green present crates are shown, despite only red presents being usable.
  • In both versions of SSB4, if a character gets grabbed when turning around while carrying a crate or another heavy item, they will face the background instead of the screen. This is known as the Backwards Glitch and it was first found by DeadDraco[1]. This only works with playable characters whose positions get mirrored when turning around, so they can face the screen regardless of whether they're facing right or left.
    • The characters who can perform this glitch are: Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Bowser Jr., Wario, Kirby, Charizard, Jigglypuff, Greninja, Duck Hunt, R.O.B., Dr. Mario, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Sonic, Mii Brawler, Mewtwo and Ryu.[2] [3]
  • A destroyed crate shares its animation with the Barrel, showing a large smash symbol, even though it's small on the Barrel. [2]
