This move can either be used like a tilt or like a smash; the former will make the Banana Peel come out at a shorter arc, while the latter causes a much higher arc.

The Banana Peel (バナナのかわ, Banana Peel) is Diddy Kong's down special move. Using the move causes him to toss a Banana Peel over his shoulder behind him. This move can either be used like a tilt or like a smash; the former will make the Banana Peel come out at a shorter arc, while the latter causes a much higher arc. Diddy can pick up Banana Peels from the ground and throw them for a small amount of damage and a slip. Additionally, if another character walks, runs, or rolls over a Banana Peel (or lands on top of one), they will slip and fall, and the Peel will move away from them a bit.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, it is common to slip on a banana peel, and then land on it once again. Since these Banana Peels are owned by Diddy, he cannot be tripped up by them unless someone else picks them up. Only two Banana Peels can be in play for each Diddy Kong. If he tries to use this move with two Banana Peels on the field already, Diddy will activate the animation but another banana will not come out. Diddy can also glide toss his Banana Peels, among many other advanced techniques. The versatility of Diddy Kong's Banana Peels make them quite useful for both offensive and defensive means, as well as stage control, being one of the primary reasons why Diddy Kong is a top tier character in Brawl.
In Super Smash Bros. 4, both the move and its associated item have been weakened. Diddy may only have one peel out at a time; trying to create a second results in Diddy shrugging after going through the motion. In addition, peels can only hit or slip opponents once, or be thrown twice, before disappearing. Peels will also disappear if they hit an opponent in midair. The move is still useful, but much less central to Diddy's playstyle compared to Brawl.
Customization
Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the known variations:
| 1. Banana Peel | 2. Shocking Banana Peel | 3. Battering Banana Peel |
|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
| "Throw a banana peel behind you to trip foes. Only one peel can exist at a time." | "A banana peel that paralyzes foes. More effective if stepped on." | "Throw a banana peel straight up. The peel launches foes straight up, as well." |
- Banana Peel: Default.
- Shocking Banana Peel: Paralyzes opponents that step on it.
- Battering Banana Peel: Throws the banana peel straight up, and will launch enemies straight up.

Origin
Bananas are collectibles from the Donkey Kong Country series. They functioned exactly the same as coins from the Mario series, in that when a player collects 100, they will gain an extra life. Bananas can appear in bunches, which depending on the game can come in groups of five, ten, or twenty-five. Donkey Kong 64 instead contains 500 bananas in each world, with each character needing to collect the matching 100 of them to access boss battles, in addition to Golden Bananas needed to unlock worlds.
While bananas themselves are common in DK's games, the concept of slipping on peels is not, only appearing as an easter egg in DK's house in DK64. Diddy Kong is, however, capable of utilizing Banana Peels in the Mario Kart (series) games in which he appears; in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, he and Donkey Kong also had Giant Banana Peels as their special items.
