An example of how going in the negative zone could be harmful to your health.

Negative Zone is Luigi's Final Smash. The name may be a reference to Luigi always being in his brother's shadow, the fact that Luigi was originally just a pallette swap of Mario's color scheme, the infamous "Minus World" in the original Super Mario Bros., or the fact that every colour viewed through the bubble is changed into its photo negative. It has unique properties. Luigi dances, and a large void surrounds him. Inside the void, the colors become inverted. Opponents caught in the void fall victim to all sorts of afflictions given out randomly to opponents. Luigi dances for the first few seconds of the Final Smash, but is unaffected by the Negative Zone (except a minor decrease in speed while still being faster than most other characters) when he's done. Even if Luigi dies, the Final Smash does not immediately end. If opponents are caught in a negative zone, they are most likely become open targets as Luigi charges his foes and knocks them off the stage. It also appears that Super Jump Punch can be used to great effect, dealing a one-hit KO in the affected zone.

List of effects:

• Drastically reduced attack power
• Greater launch distance when hit
• Increased likelihood of slipping
• Flower growth on head, which causes damage
• Dizziness
• Uncontrollable taunting
• Sudden sleepiness
• Decreased movement speed

Trophy Description

Luigi's Final Smash. As exotic music plays, he performs a dance befitting a sorcerous incantation. A barrier envelops him, negatively impacting all in his area. Random effects include getting launched, sleeping, moving in slow motion, tripping, fainting, and losing attack power. This technique is a reflection of the dark side he embraced in his brother's shadow.

Trivia

• If one faces a CPU Luigi and he uses Negative Zone, he will only spam his Fireballs over and over again, even if his AI is set to Level 9.
