This article is about taunts in Super Smash Bros. 4. For general information, see Taunt.

The following is a list of all taunts in Super Smash Bros. 4.

Mario

  • Grows to a super-size, as if taking a Super Mushroom power-up, before shrinking again. This also increases his hurtbox. The size increase stacks with special matches and actual Super Mushrooms. During the taunt, Mario mimics the standing pose seen in the original Super Mario Bros.
  • Twirls and removes his cap. Mario often does this taunt when he completes a level in some of his games, mainly New Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario 64.
  • Spins around in mid-air with his arms and legs outstretched before falling on his back. This is a reference to his death animation in the original Donkey Kong game.

Luigi

  • Performs five quick poses, one after the other. When switching from pose to pose he says, "Ho Ha Hee Hay Hoo". 1st pose: Luigi flashes a V-Sign. 2nd pose: Luigi clicks his fingers imitating guns, while looking to the right. 3rd pose: Luigi takes on a thinking pose, his eyes looking offscreen. This pose is, in some respects, similar to his Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time artwork. 4th pose: Crouches down to the floor with his back turned to the player. 5th pose: Luigi assumes his trophy position from the SSE, but with his left leg slightly raised. This pose also resembles his artwork from Luigi's Mansion.
  • Stands straight up with hands on hips, falls forward stiff on the floor, then seems to balance himself back up again. He says something that resembles "Pow pow". This is also one of his victory poses from Melee and the pose in his SSB4 artwork.
  • Crosses his arms behind his back and performs a small, shy kick, along with a bashful "Hm". The kick can damage an opponent if it connects, acting as a meteor smash; in this game, Luigi's taunt is the strongest meteor smash at 0%, due to its fixed knockback. However, its pitiful range and slow startup severely limits its effectiveness. It is similar to his pose when he loses a minigame in Mario Party 2.

Peach

  • Takes out her parasol and twirls it above her head, saying "Sweet!"
  • Dances, singing "La la la la la la" in the tune of "Ring Around the Rosie".
  • Performs a spin, then poses and winks, saying "Uh-huh!".

Bowser

  • Throws his head back, spinning it in a circle, and roars.
  • Snaps furiously forward five times.
  • Balances precariously on one leg, similar to his teetering animation.

Dr. Mario

  • Grinds his shoe on the ground.
  • Throws a pill up in the air along his arm, before catching it.
  • Taps himself on the shoulder with a closed fist.

Rosalina & Luma

  • Rosalina and Luma lean forward and spin, like a planet on its axis.
  • Puts her hand on her hip, leans back, and waves her wand,and says "Mm-hmm"; Luma nods its head.
  • Waves her wand up, similarly to when she summons Luma; Luma dances around.

Bowser Jr.

  • Jumps up, sits on the edge of the Junior Clown Car, and makes a tiny breath of fire, chuckling.
  • Twirls his hammer.
  • The Clown Car spawns its wheels and performs a donut, then returns to normal.

Yoshi

  • Dances around in a circle, chanting "Yoshi!" as he finishes.
  • Chases his tail in circles, then lifts up an arm as he finishes.
  • Yoshi faces the camera and jumps up and down whilst chanting.

Donkey Kong

  • Beats his chest.
  • Shakes himself, as if his fur was wet.
  • Faces the camera and shrugs his shoulders, making a confused noise. DK's eyes now grow and shrink exaggeratedly when performing this taunt.

Diddy Kong

  • Throws his cap up in the air and catches it on his head. This is a reference to his victory pose in Donkey Kong Country, after he defeats a boss or wins in a bonus room.
  • Holds his hands in front of him, chattering.
  • Jumps from one foot to the other, clapping his hands above his head.

Link

  • Swings his sword, then sheathes and unsheathes it. This is a reference to his Twilight Princess "well done" sheathe.
  • Navi flies out in front of him, then returns.
  • Performs a pose whereby he stands on one leg and holds his sword in an attack position. Similar to the pose he performs after hitting an enemy with his sword in Zelda II: Adventure of Link.

Zelda

  • Holds up one arm, magic coming from her hand.
  • Puts her hands together and creates a small flame. This was also one of her victory poses in Melee.

  • Performs a threatening pose with her right hand before her face.

Ganondorf

  • Hovers in mid-air and spins before laughing menacingly.
  • Slams his fist into his open palm and cracks his knuckles, creating dark flames and saying "Heh!"
  • Takes out his sword, looks at it, which emits darkness from the tip, and then puts it back. Ganondorf now has a more obvious contemplative expression when doing so, and his eyes move to look at the sword.

Toon Link

  • Waves the Wind Waker, conducting a tune at the end, which is the same tune heard after completing a song in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
  • Looks around uncertainly; unlike in Brawl, a fairy flies around him as he does so, making it more similar to Link's taunt.
  • Swings his sword around in a blind panic, so much so it tires him out and he gasps for breath.

Samus

  • Thrusts her hand behind her while the jets on her back light up.
  • Part of her arm cannon comes out, with the Zero Laser part shown.
  • Points her arm cannon behind her, then in front of her.

  • Holds out his hand and slowly raises it, saying "Get some!" (かかってきな。, Come at me.)

Captain Falcon

  • Charges himself up with fire, similar to a Falcon Punch.
  • Holds out his hand and challenges, "Come on!"
