A Floow (フロウス, Flows) is an enemy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Subspace Emissary mode which first appears in the Ruined Zoo level. It looks like a large black cloud with gray rectangles forming a humanoid shape and two small red eyes. Its trophy describes it as "a ghost patched with strips of darkness." A Floow's attack (some sort of scream) is a powerful combo attack that causes high damage and immensely powerful knockback on the last hit. It is always an OHKO, unless there is a ceiling or a cave of life, and damage can surpass 100% by far (or even 200% on higher difficulties). It is also possible for two Floows attacking at alternate times to trap a player, or to attack together with an invariable OHKO scream. A combined attack can inflict 999% damage in less than 5 seconds on Intense, making it the most powerful move ever in damage terms.
A particular annoyance of the Floow is its ability to steadily regain health, although it cannot move or attack while healing. Floows can be turned into a trophy with the use of a trophy stand, but precise aiming and timing may be required as the Floows float around. Floows are also completely immune to absorbable attacks; such attacks will simply vanish on contact and not do anything.
Name origin
Its name is a corruption of the word "flow", which describes the way it moves.

Trophy Description
An enemy that might be described as a ghost patched with strips of darkness. A Floow will float in the air and attack nastily from behind. Harboring pent-up resentment, a Floow's cries reveal one part sadness, one part madness. This especially hits home when gazing into its ghastly red eyes. After taking a certain amount of damage, a Floow will disappear.
