The '''Poltergust G-00''' ({{ja|オバキューム|Obakyūmu}}, ''Ghost Vacuum''), appearing as '''Poltergust 5000''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', is [[Luigi]]'s [[Final Smash]] in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', replacing [[Negative Zone]] from ''Brawl''. The Poltergust G-00 is also used in his [[grab]] in the latter game.

In ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', when performing this move, Luigi starts by trying to trap opponents and items close to him inside the vacuum. Upon activation, Luigi will automatically sweep the vacuum's suction around him radially - a couple sweeps in front, once behind, then a few more in front - remaining in place for the move's duration, even when used in the air. If any opponents are caught in the initial pass, they receive up to 30% damage before Luigi shoots them out upward diagonally, causing an additional 10% damage and tremendous knockback. Opponents caught will receive the same amount of damage regardless of the time they were sucked in (their percentages increases faster to compensate). Some types of items can be shot out at the end of the move, further damaging opponents as they travel and it is possible to pick them up afterward. Foes sent flying will potentially collide with each other (excluding [[Team Battle]]s), also causing even more damage. If Luigi fails to suck in any opponents he will instead fail to the floor and the move will end

Foes sent flying will potentially collide with each other (excluding [[Team Battle]]s), also causing even more damage. If neither opponents nor eligible items are caught, the Final Smash will fail. It can't suck in opponents behind solid walls. If used in midair, Luigi will bounce upwards once the move ends to aid recovery.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', it is renamed as it now uses the design of the Poltergust with the same name from ''Luigi's Mansion 3''. It remains functionally identical except that there is a much longer time between the opponents being shot out.

Under certain circumstances, an opponent in the path of a careening fighter will not take any damage or knockback. Instead the knockback they would've taken is "stored" and can be "released" by taking knockback from another attack.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_CCTOrLGDE&t=443s  Explaining Every FINAL SMASH Hitbox in Smash Ultimate - Rekzius]</ref>

The {{s|mariowiki|Poltergust G-00}} formally debuted in ''{{s|mariowiki|Luigi's Mansion 3}}'', 11 months after first appearing in ''Ultimate''. Like in ''Smash'', it can shoot plungers that can be used as projectiles or to pull objects towards Luigi. A later upgrade to the Poltergust via an electrical socket allows its suction power to increase to its maximum, referencing the Final Smash with the lightning effects that show up when performing the move. The Poltergust G-00 name is a pun on "goo," referring to Luigi’s green doppelgänger {{s|mariowiki|Gooigi}}, for whom the Poltergust G-00 doubles as a storage unit for.

The Japanese name of the Poltergust, is a portmanteau of the Japanese word for ghost/monster (obake) and the English word "vacuum".

*The Poltergust G-00's suction cup is portrayed differently in Simon's reveal trailer, in actual gameplay, and in ''Luigi's Mansion 3''. The trailer shows it as a simple plunger fired from the nozzle, ''Ultimate'' portrays it with the plunger attached to the Poltergust with a string at all times, and ''Luigi's Mansion 3'' has it fired as a projectile with a knotted rope for Luigi to suck in with the vacuum itself.

*In the Latin American Spanish version of ''Luigi's Mansion 3'', the Poltergust G-00 is named as '''Succionaentes GO-1000''', but in both Spanish versions of ''Ultimate'', it's named as '''Succionaentes G0M-1L'''.
