Goemon is the main protagonist of the Goemon series created by Konami. He is represented in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a Mii Fighter costume.
Origin
Based on the famous folkloric Japanese thief Ishikawa Goemon, Goemon is portrayed as a fiery young man from Edo, with a sense to always fight for what is right. Much like his historical inspiration, he was originally a noble thief, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, thus amassing a bounty which attracted samurai and ninja to target him. Goemon soon turned into a normal hero, defending Edo from various threats, ranging from pirates to space aliens, leading to the feudal ruler Lord Yuki and his princess to pardon him. Goemon uses a variety of tools and abilities in his adventures, including a giant kiseru he swings as a weapon, throwable Ryō coins which can be enhanced with fire magic, a chain pipe (which acts similarly to a grappling hook), and the ability to push large blocks. He can also use Sudden Impact in the Nintendo 64 games to summon the gigantic fighting robot Goemon Impact, constructed by the Wise Old Man. Goemon's allies include the hammer-wielding ninja Ebisumaru, the sword-wielding kunoichi Yae, and the bomb-throwing robot ninja Sasuke, who was also built by the Wise Old Man.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Goemon appears as a Mii Costume for the Mii Swordfighter as part of Wave 3.
