Notices
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.

A ground attack performed by Link.

A ground attack is an attack made while the character is standing on the ground, as opposed to aerial attacks, which are performed while the character is airborne. Both special moves and normal attacks can be ground attacks. Some attacks behave differently when performed as ground attacks. An example of this is Link's up special move, which can be charged (starting in Brawl) if performed on the ground. A few special attacks can only be performed on the ground, specifically Donkey Kong's Hand Slap and Peach's Vegetable; in a similar way Olimar's Pikmin Pluck can be used in the air but only has an effect when grounded.
