Empty Chamber glitch

The Empty Chamber glitch refers to a glitch in Super Smash Bros. Melee done using Ness's PK Thunder. This glitch is not practical or desirable for use in a traditional match, but may occur by accident. Performing this glitch correctly will cause one of Ness' PK Thunder attempts to fail and spawn no projectile. The discovery of the glitch was a collaborative effort between Simna ibn Sind, moose, and PKFreeZZy.

How To Perform

A Ness must perform a up special move while airborne and then land while it is still active. In this state, the Ness must then enter hitlag (usually by getting hit) and have his PK Thunder projectile reflected at the same time. If performed correctly, Ness' next up special move will not create a projectile.
