The '''Parasol''' ({{ja|パラソル|Parasoru}}, ''Parasol'') is an object from the {{uv|Kirby}} series.
The '''Parasol''' is an item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. The Parasol is a poor throwing weapon, as it will open shortly after being thrown, making it drift slowly towards the opponent, but it travels extremely far when thrown up or down as it doesn't open.
 
The Parasol can not only be used as a weapon, but also as a personal parachute, reminiscent of the parasol from the [[Kirby (universe)|Kirby series]]. The Parasol will automatically open if the player holding it is falling through the air, even after a third jump, greatly aiding horizontal recovery. In order to fall normally, the player must press Down on the Control Stick. Pressing upwards will re-open the Parasol, which will cancel the [[helplessness|helpless]] state; this is the only item (or mechanic in general, aside from [[Peach]]'s [[Peach Parasol|own parasol]]) capable of doing so.

In ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'' parasols are used by some [[Waddle Dee]]s and [[Waddle Doo]]s, who use them to gently float down to the ground: the parasol-wielding Waddle Dees are known as [[Parasol Waddle Dee]]s. The corresponding Copy Ability debuted in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and appeared in several subsequent games. Kirby's parasol acts as a melee weapon and damages enemies on contact even when just held, thus acting as a protection from attacks from above. While holding it, Kirby also gains the floating ability it gives to enemies.
In ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', there are Waddle Dees and Waddle Doos that come down on parasols. ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' introduced the copy ability which allowed Kirby to suck up an enemy with a parasol so that he could have one. The parasol acted as a weapon that Kirby could pummel an enemy with. Kirby could also slowly descend while holding the parasol. The parasol also made an appearance in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and it behaved the same as it did in ''Kirby's Adventure''. In ''Melee'', the parasol is an item that can be used to hit  opponents and can be used to slowly descend downward. The design of the parasol looks similar to how it looked in ''Kirby Super Star''.

The Parasol's knockback sends opponents flying more vertically than horizontally.
==Damage==
 
*When A is tapped, it does 3-6% damage.
===Trophy===
*When fully charged, it does 15-24% damage.
{{Trophy
*When dropped, it does 2% damage.  
|name=Parasol
*When thrown at an opponent, it does 7-9% damage.  
|image=Parasol Trophy Melee.png
*While open in the air, it does 2-4% damage.
|desc=The Parasol, which was originally used by Kirby, can be used as a weapon to bludgeon enemies. Even better is the fact that players can open it while airborne and float lazily back toward safe ground. It's incredibly useful in returning to the field of play after an opponent gets the better of you and sends you flying.

==Trophy Description==
Parasols are carried by [[Parasol Waddle Dee]]s from [[Smash Run]], who use them to gently float to the ground. They discard them when attacked, causing the parasol to float upwards and possibly hit the player for small damage. A parasol can also reflect projectiles and be bounced off of, held or not.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*If [[Peach]] uses her [[up special move]], [[Peach Parasol]], while holding this item, her normal, white parasol is replaced with this one.
*When [[Peach]] uses her [[Up Special Move|Up special move]], [[Peach Parasol]], while holding the Parasol, her normal white parasol is replaced with this one.
*The Parasol is the only battering item to not return from ''Melee'' in ''Brawl''.
*The parasol is one of six items in ''Melee'' to not make a return in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|''Brawl'']], the other five items being the [[Barrel Cannon]], [[Cloaking Device]], [[Flipper]], [[Egg]], and [[Red Shell]].
*The Parasol is the only item that [[Mewtwo]] holds in its hand, and only when gliding.
**The parasol is also the only battering item to not return from Melee in Brawl.
*When [[Mr. Game & Watch]] uses this item while floating down, it's attached to his head, likely in reference to ''Parachute'' (also referenced in his neutral aerial in ''Melee'', and later fused with [[Fire]] from ''Brawl'' onwards).
