The '''yo-yo glitch''' refers to a glitch in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' done using {{SSBM|Ness}}'s [http://i.imgur.com/HAWif.gif yo-yo]. It can be used to attack or grab with near limitless range or attach certain single-[[hitbox]] attacks to Ness's body. The discovery of the glitch was a collaborative effort between {{Sm|VilNess}}, {{Sm|LonelyNess}}, and {{Sm|Dan Smith}}, and was spurred on by an innocuous video of an unknown Japanese player accidentally dropping a yo-yo hitbox. | |||
The glitch can be performed in all versions of ''Melee''. | The glitch can be performed in all versions of ''Melee''. | ||

==Super Yo-yo Glitch== | |||
It is a very rare occurrence, so very little about it is known. Its effects (including but not limited to infinite Jackets and instant KO throws) are similar to those of the Yoyo Glitch, but are more lethal and have longer lasting effects. | |||
Most Ness mains don't believe in it's existence due to little evidence. | |||
This technique holds much value to Ness players and is said to be the secret to beating the [[Bowser Challenge]]. | |||
