Bonus Fruit (フルーツターゲット, Fruits Target) is Pac-Man's neutral special move in Super Smash Bros. 4.
Overview
Pac-Man holds out a bonus item from his original appearance and cycles through them, starting at the iconic Cherry. The items cycle in the same order they do in the original arcade game: Cherry, Strawberry, Orange, Apple, Melon, Galaxian, Bell, and Key. Pac-Man cannot cycle past the key, and will instead put the key away for later use. After reaching the Orange, each item takes longer to charge. Pac-Man can save his selected fruit by shield dodging, and continue to cycle starting from the last fruit he selected. Once an item is selected, Pac-Man throws the item as a projectile, with each one having unique properties when thrown. This move cannot be used again until the item thrown disappears from the stage.
Fruit | Properties | Damage |
---|---|---|
Cherry | Bounces twice and lands for a moment before disappearing. | 4% |
Strawberry | Bounces three times and lands for a moment before disappearing. | 6% |
Orange | Travels in a straight line for about roughly half the length of Final Destination's platform before disappearing. | 8% |
Apple | Bounces across the floor four times in quick hops before disappearing. | 9% |
Melon | Travels slowly in a broad arc, and has considerable knockback. | 12% |
Galaxian | Does a quick shuttle loop before continuing to fly off either straight ahead or in a 45 degree angle upward from the direction it was thrown. Inflicts the same amount of damage every time it connects. | 11% |
Bell | Travels slowly in a high arc before suddenly stopping short and falling straight down, passing through opponents. Causes paralysis if it connects. | 8% |
Key | Travels rapidly in a straight line and deals high damage and knockback. | 15% |
Customization
Bonus Fruit can be customized into two variations.
- Crazy Fruit gives the fruit different properties, such as cherries bouncing across the floor, and strawberries knocking opponents towards Pac-Man.
- Lazy Fruit: The fruit travel at an excessively slow pace, and do not disappear, instead sticking around for a while. It also changes each fruit's general behavior. The cherry will bounce five times, at a slow rate before disappearing. The strawberry will bounce once in a slow arc, and continue to hop in place four times. The orange will sluggishly travel for a short distance. The apple has the the same behavior similar to the strawberry, but travels faster and will bounce more frequently and higher. The melon shares this characteristic, with higher bounces and will travel even faster.The Galaxian will travel a short distance before performing 8 rapid, small shuttle loops that can potentially trap an opponent. The Bell will travel straight up from Pac-Man's hand for a while before dropping quickly. The key will spin rapidly and travel slowly, knocking back foes as it follows a set path.
Origin
Bonus fruits are one of the staples of the Pac-Man arcade games. They appear near the ghost's lair in most games, and vanish after a set time. Consuming one yields bonus points depending on the fruit. The fruits in the original Pac-Man are, in order: Cherry, Strawberry, Orange, Apple, Melon, Galaxian Starship, Bell, and Key. Upon reaching the Key, the fruit no longer changes for the remainder of the game. In the original arcade game, after reaching Orange, the fruit begins changing every other level rather than every level (meaning Orange appears for two levels, then Apple for two levels, and so on). This is reflected in Bonus Fruit by having its charge time double once it reaches Orange.
