*[[Shield break]] - One of the most common stunning techniques. When the character's shield shatters from overuse of it, the character will be stunned for a short period of time. Some attacks and items are specialised in shattering shields, such as [[Mr. Saturn]] and [[Marth]]'s [[Shield Breaker]].

*[[Reflector shattering]] - [[Reflector]]s slightly increase the power of what they reflect. If the same projectile is reflected multiple times, the Reflector can be overloaded and shatter like a shield. This is absent in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', where overly powerful projectiles instead pass through reflectors and inflict their damage and knockback to the character.

For the condition that occurs causing characters to shake back and forth while immobile, see Paralyze.
Mega Man stunned in Super Smash Bros. 4.

Being stunned or dazed (referred to as FuraFura in Super Smash Bros. Melee's debug menu and in-game files for Brawl, after the Japanese onomatopoeia for dizziness), an effect known as dizziness in Brawl, is a special condition that leaves a character immobile for a short period of time.

Summary

When characters are stunned, they are dazed for a few seconds and cannot perform any actions. The only ways for a character to recover is by flinching, waiting out the condition, or by button mashing to reduce duration.

Unlike most other status effects, characters can escape being stunned easier at higher percentages (whereas asleep, for example, lasts longer at higher percentages). In Smash 64, the base time in frames that a character is stunned can be determined by the formula (400-damage)+60.

The sound effect of being stunned is a cartoony tweet sound effect that loops until the condition is stopped. This sound effect debuted in Melee, and its volume was increased in Brawl. In both games, characters also have a flashing red overlay applied to their model; in Smash 4, however, this only happens when a character's shield is broken.

Trivia

  • In Brawl, Bowser is the only character to lack the tweeting sound effect while he is stunned. The reason for this unique property is unknown.
  • In Brawl and SSB4, Samus has a dizzy animation that vaguely resembles her Power Suit glitching. It is unknown whether this is an actual glitch or an intention of the developers.
