In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Brawl, and Smash 4, Toad (キノピオガード Toad Guard) is Peach's neutral special move. Peach pulls Toad out of hammerspace, and holds him out in front of her. Upon being hit, Toad will emit a damaging shower of spores. Unlike Roy or Ike's Counter which increases in damage when countering stronger attacks, Toad's spores do the same damage (3% each for a total of 18%) and knockback regardless of the power of the blocked attack. The spores themselves can be absorbed, and the move is in fact the only counterattack that fires projectiles when activated.

The move can be bit difficult to use, as there is quite a bit of delay before Peach can block attacks, especially compared to other countering moves like Fox's Reflector or Marth's Counter.

Trivia

  • Early screenshots of the move sparked rumors that Toad would appear as a playable character.
  • Giant Melee, Mega Brawl, and Super Mushrooms all affect Toad's size, though Metal Boxes do not affect his coloring, due to the fact that Toad is a separate model from Peach.
  • When Peach holds Toad, none of her hands are on the bottom of him.
