When hit with attacks of the [[fire]] or [[electric]] effects, they grow bigger, dealing more damage and knockback. However, in contrast to what its ''Brawl'' [[trophy]] says, there is an upper limit to how large the Hothead can become (roughly three times its original diameter). | ||

In a Hothead's initial state, it is an item that can be picked up and thrown. It can also be attacked, and if it is attacked by fire or electric attacks, it will grow larger. It activates when thrown, and once the Hothead lands on the ground or a platform, it will move along the surface in the direction it was thrown and periodically release sparks, which are almost twice as strong as a smash-thrown Hothead of the same size. While it is travelling, a Hothead can still be hit by attacks and grow larger. | |||
A Hothead will reach maximum power after it takes approximately 30%. | If it is thrown onto solid terrain, the Hothead will cling onto the surface, travelling along the walls or ceilings. However, if it is on soft terrain, the Hothead will fall off of the edge, and continue to fall until it lands again (or falls off the screen). Hotheads eventually disappear in an amount of time inversely proportionate to their size (that is, bigger ones vanish faster). A travelling or thrown Hothead can be [[Reflection|reflected]], which will change its ownership and reverse its direction of travel. | ||
A Hothead will reach maximum power after it takes approximately 30% damage. However, if the Hothead is undamaged and hit by a fire or electric-based attack that deals over 30% damage (such as [[Ike]]'s [[Eruption]]), its power can exceed this limit and gain [[One-hit KO|OHKO]] power. This can be taken to ludicrous extremes, such as knocking five [[Soccer Ball]]s into a Hothead using [[Marth]]'s [[Critical Hit]] (only in [[Training Mode]] is this plausible), causing the Hothead to deal 140% damage or more and become impossible to reflect. | |||

*The highest possible damage output known for a Hothead without hacking is 274% when smash thrown and 426% when it sparks. For a Hothead to become this strong, the situation with the five Soccer Balls and Marth's Critical Hit must be replicated, but after the Soccer Balls have sustained the maximum amount of damage. | *The highest possible damage output known for a Hothead without hacking is 274% when smash thrown and 426% when it sparks.
