Template:Infobox Final Smash SSB4 Pair Up (ダブル, Daburu, Double) is Robin's Final Smash. In this Final Smash, Robin summons Chrom through a warp circle. Chrom will travel a set distance from where he is summoned, and swipe at any opponents in his path. If he misses, the Final Smash will fail. When he does catch an opponent, Chrom's portrait appears. Once an opponent is caught, the two unleash their attacks: Chrom with the Falchion, and Robin with Bolganone and Thunder, assailing the opponent multiple times. Finally, the two strike the opponent at the same time, sending the foe away.

This attack ends up dealing 45% damage - 5% with the initial strike, 2% for the flurry of attacks, and 14% for the finishing strike. It can KO at at least 45%.

Origin

Chrom, one of the main protagonists in Fire Emblem: Awakening, joins Robin to attack the opponents, reflecting a mechanic first introduced in Awakening where two units can pair up. The supporting unit can not only boost combat stats, but they can also attack after the main unit, or can block enemy attacks from reaching the main unit. Chrom's portrait that appears is also derived from Awakening: when a skill or a critical hit activates, the character's portrait is shown and accompanied with a spoken one-liner from that character (though interestingly, "On my mark", as seen during Robin's introductory trailer for Super Smash Bros. 4, isn't one of Chrom's portrait one-liners, but rather one of the things he says at the beginning of a battle sequence if he's supporting the main unit).

Trivia

  • Due to the electric and fire effects, it can be quite hard to see Robin and Chrom during their Final Smash. However, if the camera zooms in to Chrom's attack animations, the player could see that it greatly resembles Ike's animations during his Great Aether, save for a few differences such as some of his stances and his last three hits.
