Zelda performs her down throw on ROB.

Down throw is a throw performed by pressing down on the control stick after having grabbed the enemy. These throws are typically used as combo-starters, and a few, like Sheik's and King Dedede's, can be used to chain throw. Down throw chain throws typically work only on floaty characters, who are generally more difficult to combo than fast-fallers; thus, they are highly valuable to any character. Other notable down throws include Captain Falcon's and Ganondorf's. Toon Link's down throw can set up for a barrage of b-airs followed by a d-air meteor smash.

List of down throws:

  • Mario: Slams opponent on the ground. 6%.
  • Luigi: Same as Mario's.
  • Peach: Sits on opponent. 7% and it can be used to chaingrab on lower percentages.
  • Bowser: Body slams the opponent. 12%.
  • Donkey Kong: Slams opponent on the ground. 7% and it can be used to chaingrab at lower percentages.
  • Diddy Kong: Slams opponent on the ground. 9%.
  • Yoshi: Spits opponent on the ground. 4%.
  • Wario: Sits on opponent. 7% and it can be used to chaingrab at all percentages.
  • Link: Lies onto the opponent. 7% and it can be used to chaingrab at lower percentages.
  • Zelda: Throws opponent on ground and shocks them with magic. 10%.


Trivia

In Melee, Bowser's down throw does no damage to Jigglypuff, but this has changed in Brawl.
