Fire Hydrant (消火栓, Fire Hydrant) is Pac-Man's down special move in Super Smash Bros. 4.

Overview

Pac-Man throws a fire hydrant below himself: enemies hit by the falling hydrant take 9% damage. If the hydrant lands on the ground, it will stay in place and shoot out water two times. The direction of the shots depends on Pac-Man's position: if he's above the hydrant, water is shot from the top, pushing characters upwards; otherwise it is shot from both sides, pushing them horizontally. All fighters, including Pac-Man himself, are affected.
The hydrant can also be attacked: once it has taken at least 13% damage (12% before version 1.0.4), it is launched in the direction of the attack. Characters hit by the thrown hydrant, including Pac-Man, take 13% damage.

Customization

Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:

  1. On-Fire Hydrant: Shoots fire out three times. This fire can inflict 4% to 8% damage every time it touches anyone, including Pac-Man. Direct contact with the hydrant when Pac-Man drops it inflicts 8% damage and has a fire effect. When the hydrant is launched by an attack, any contact with it will inflict 20% damage, with low knockback. In addition, it takes less damage to launch than the regular variation.
  2. Dire Hydrant: Pac-Man drops a hydrant that explodes upon touching the ground. When used in the air, the hydrant will explode after falling a short distance, or when it makes contact with a foe. The explosion will inflict 10%, and has a fire effect. Despite being an explosion, it has low knockback and is an inefficient method to KO an opponent, even at high percentages. The explosion does not hurt Pac-Man.
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, this variation is a Challenge unlock, only obtainable by scoring at least 200000 points on Stage 2 of Target Blast in a single game.

Glitch

Using the Fire Hydrant on Pac-Land next to one of the stage's pre-existing Fire Hydrants can prevent Pac-Man's own Fire Hydrant from properly falling to the ground; as a result, other characters can get stuck underneath the Hydrant as it constantly "falls", inflicting significant damage to opponents.

Origin

In the game, Pac-Land, fire hydrants appear as common obstacles. They shoot water that can push Pac-Man away, acting as a hazard should he be pushed towards ghosts.
