The Green Missile (ルイージロケット, Luigi Rocket) is [[Luigi
Origin
The Green Missile is an original move, and nothing like it has appeared in any Mario game released before Super Smash Bros. Melee. Luigi has been known to have a comical style though, as mentioned on the official Smash Bros. website, which could explain the Green Missile's rather silly execution. It also could have come directly from Pikachu's Skull Bash.
Like the Egg Roll, the Green Missile has appeared in games released after the move's introduction in Melee. Luigi would later use this move as one of his attacks in Mario Sports Mix and as his Special Move in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. Unlike the Egg Roll, however, the resemblance may just be a coincidence, as it is not used as a named special move. Luigi did a similar move in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode The Adventures of Sherlock Mario.

Trivia
- As noted above, Green Missile's charging stage gains notable vertical distance when used immediately after a jump in Brawl onwards. Luigi Cyclone shares this property. When these two moves are combined with his usual recovery move (optimally in the order jumped Green Missile→jumped Cyclone→Green Missile at apex of height→Super Jump Punch), it becomes possible for Luigi to travel absurd distances aerially, being able to easily perform many stage jumps, including clearing the entire Online Practice Stage and traversing Temple aboveground.
