The '''yoyo glitch''' refers to a glitch done using [[Ness (SSBM)|Ness]]'s yoyo.  It can be used to attack or grab with near limitless range or attach certain single-[[hitbox]] attacks to Ness's body. The discovery of the glitch was a collaborative effort between {{Sm|VilNess}}, {{Sm|LonelyNess}}, and {{Sm|Dan Smith}}, and was spurred on by an innocuous video of an unknown Japanese player accidentally dropping a yoyo hitbox.
==Mechanics==
Ness's [[up smash]] consists of 3 parts each with its own hitbox: outreaching, spinning, and swinging.  The yoyo glitch drops the last [[hitbox]] of the up smash onto the ground and leaves it there until Ness gets [[KO]]ed or uses a non-[[projectile]] attack.
==How to perform it==
#Use Ness's up smash and hit any opponent or destructible part of the stage with the outreaching part of the yoyo. Charge the yoyo very slightly before releasing.
#Make sure that, after the yoyo is released into its upward swing, it doesn't hit anything else.

==Super Yoyo Glitch==
It is a very rare occurrence, so very little about it is known. Its effects (including but not limited to infinite [[Jacket]]s and instant KO throws) are similar to those of the Yoyo Glitch, but are more lethal and have longer lasting effects.
This technique holds much value to Ness players and is said to be the secret to beating the [[Bowser Challenge]].
