The Drill is an item in Super Smash Bros. 4. As the name suggests, it is a projectile item that fires a large drill. The drill's hitbox will hit multiple times, allowing it to easily break shields or, upon a successful hit, drag the enemy along in the direction it is fired. The projectile is very hard to DI out of, causing a trapped victim to either be dragged off of the stage for a KO or be trapped against a wall and hit continuously until the drill explodes. After firing the drill its base will remain in the user's hand. It can then be thrown for a surprisingly large amount of knockback, similar to a hammer head. Both the drill and the thrown base can be reflected or perfect shielded to nullify it.

Origin

While official and in-game sources refer to the item as originating from the Super Smash Bros. universe, its appearance is nearly identical to the Drill Arm from Kid Icarus: Uprising and behavior is nearly identical to the Stone-Needle conbination from Kirby 64. Similarly to the item, the Drill Arm's charged shot fires a drill that plows through enemies, dealing ongoing damage for a time. Unlike the Drill Arm, however, the item has a much shorter base, no homing ability, and can only be fired once.
