| The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
| When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Explosive
Explosive is an attack type in the Super Smash Bros. series that encompasses fire-based and explosive attacks.
Explosive attacks are boosted by Explosives Attack stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's The Subspace Emissary and the Spirit skill or trait Fire & Explosion Attack ↑ as well as certain Spirit Battle conditions in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, explosive attacks are resisted by the Spirit skill of trait Fire/Explosion Resist ↑ and deal more damage to fighters equipped with a Primary Spirit with the trait Fire Weakness.
While explosive is separate to the effect flame, most explosive attacks also have the flame effect. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Ivysaur's bulb blasts are the only fighter attack to be explosive without being flame (they are Explosive/Grass instead). Not all attacks that can cause explosions are explosive-type.
