Lucas healing in SSB4.
Healing refers to reducing one's damage percentage. A few characters are capable of doing this with one of their special moves, and usually in only small amounts. Alternatively, some items may restore the user's health. In Brawl and Smash 4, it is possible to be healed by some stage elements, while in Smash 4 exclusively, equipment can be used that has restorative properties.
