| The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
| When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Zap Jump
Zap Jump is an advanced technique used for Lucas. It was discovered by Christopher Daniel Winans and shown for the first time in this video. This technique doubles Lucas's second jump.
To execute this move, you must use PK Fire within one frame of your double jump. The timing takes a bit of practice, but you basically hit the jump right before you use PK Fire and Lucas will shoot up quite a long distance. This can be combined with Lucas' other techniques such as B-Sticking and Magnet Pull for an impressive recovery.
How it works
Members of Smashboards have discovered why this happens. Normally on Lucas's second jump, an upward force propels him upwards, but the ascent is hindered by a downward force right after this. PK Fire somehow cancels the downward force, causing a huge, fast jump.
