'''Clown Cannon''' ({{ja|クラウンキャノン|Kuraun Kyanon}}, ''Clown Cannon'') is [[Bowser Jr.]]'s [[neutral special]].

==Overview==
When using the Clown Cannon, the Junior Clown Car shoots a cannonball out of its mouth. The cannonball knocks back and damages the first enemy it hits.

Upon activating the move, the Cannon will charge; the distance and damage is influenced by the time the move is charged. At close range, it inflicts 8.5% uncharged and 20% fully charged. Over a distance, the damage weakens to 5.9% uncharged and 14% fully charged. Uncharged, the cannonball goes about half the distance of Final Destination, and fully charged reaches just short of the entirety of Final Destination.

==Customization==
Special Move customization was added in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These are the variations:
{{CustomSet|BowserJr|Neutral|name1=Clown Cannon|desc1=Fire a slow, heavy cannonball. Charge it to boost the cannonball's speed and power.|name2=Piercing Cannon|desc2=Fire a smaller, less-powerful cannonball that can bash through multiple fighters.|name3=Air Cannon|desc3=Blast opponents with wind. In the air, you can also use it to move backward quickly.}}
# '''Clown Cannon''': Default.
# '''Piercing Cannon''': The cannonball, as the name suggests, can go through multiple targets at the cost of damage and kill power. Additionally, the cannonball is smaller. Uncharged, damage peaks at 4% and falls to 2%, while fully charged damage starts at 10% and lowers to 5%. The move also has slightly less startup lag and charge time, but significantly more ending lag, to the effect of making the total duration longer overall, which - when combined with the reduced damage - makes the move completely unsafe on shield unless the opponent is far away.
# '''Air Cannon''': This variation makes the cannon shoot out air, generating a [[push]] effect, and subsequently has less range than the standard and piercing shot, due to the wind not reaching as far as the cannonball. However, the push effect can be very useful for edgeguarding, and still has long reach. In addition, the move has significantly less startup lag, albeit with marginally increased ending lag. Finally, when used in the air, Bowser Jr. is stalled slightly upon firing the cannon, as well as being pushed back, with the distance being determined by charge.

==Origin==
[[File:ClownCannonOrigin.png|thumb|{{s|mariowiki|Cannon}}s as seen in both ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''Super Mario All-Stars''.]]
Cannonballs have been very often launched from cannons on [[Bowser]]'s airships, tanks, and boats in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}''; very large ones, known as {{s|mariowiki|Big Steely|Big Steelies}}, were dropped from Bowser's [[Koopa Clown Car]] in the final battle in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World}}''. In ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. Wii}}'', during the third boss battle against Bowser Jr., Bowser Jr. uses a giant Clown Car's cannon to fire spiked, explosive cannonballs.
