Enemy
Enemies are species in Super Smash Bros. Melee (randomly come out of containers and also appearing in certain stages in Adventure Mode) and in Super Smash Bros. Brawl in the Subspace Emissary. Enemies will also appear in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS as part of the version-exclusive game mode Smash Run.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
Function
Enemies have different functions. They cause damage to any character that makes contact with one. The enemies can be picked up with the Z button and can be thrown at other characters. The character who is hit by a thrown enemy will receive about 30% damage and might die at a low percentage. The character that KO's an enemy will receive extra bonus points for every enemy they KO (The points vary on what enemy is KO). Though, they can appear like regular items if using Action Replay. They are similar to assist trophies in Brawl.
