The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

#REDIRECT [[Yoshi's Story#Randall the Cloud]]
 
[[Image:Randall.jpg|thumb|70px|right|Randall the Cloud.]]
'''Randall the Cloud''' is the cloud that appears on the [[Yoshi's Story]] stage, often to assist the recovery process. The term derived originally from Canadian smasher [[FastFox]], and it has since taken off as a norm on [[Smash World Forums]].
 
Randall's complete round  trip through the stage and out the other side takes exactly 20 seconds. As such, many players attempt to summon Randall (via a strained shout) in their darkest moments. It is not uncommon that a player will fall just short of the edge, only to see Randall's devious smile as he emerges half a second later. When an attempt to land on Randall fails, most players proceed to scream "RAAAANDAAALL!" at the top of their lungs in indignation.
 
==Relationship to Randall00==
 
Curiously, although the cloud's name emerged out of the smash community in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, it actually bears no relationship whatsoever to [[smasher]] [[Randall00]] (RJM), who hosts [[Pro Impact BI-WEEKLY Smash|tournaments]] in the neighbouring city of Calgary. In reality, the cloud was dubbed "Randall" long before a smash community even existed in Calgary and the whole matter is nothing more than a peculiar coincidence.
 
RJM has been known to periodically apologize on behalf of the cloud.
