Announced at E3 2006, The Smash Ball (formerly called a Smash Emblem or Smash Orb by fans) is an item shown to debut in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It appears to allow the user to activate an especially powerful Final Smash attack.
To use the Smash Ball, the characters must attack the Smash Ball until the screen darkens and he/she/it begins to glow. The attack can be unleashed at any time, and can only be used once, after you get the Smash Ball by pressing the Special Move button. However, the Smash Ball can be knocked out if the character with the item is damaged enough.
At first, the Smash Ball was obtained simply by touching or passing through it.
When a Smash Ball appears, the screen blinks and the crowd gasps.

It can also be damaged by the stage (ex: Norfair's lava), and if nobody strikes it before it is destroyed, it is lost. Smash Balls are also affected by glancing blows.
In the Smash Bros DOJO!!, the Smash Ball doesn't appear as an item[1], instead as a how to play tutorial segment.
Originally, it was thought that the Smash Ball could only be used by a character once per battle, due to the way that the DOJO!! worded it. As it turns out, it simply meant that a character could only use a Final Smash once per Smash Ball.
While a Final Smash can be used more than once per battle, when a character is in standby mode, the screen goes dark and no smash balls appear until the Final Smash is used. This means that only one Final Smash can be used at once.
If all three Dragoon Parts are in play, a Smash Ball will not appear until they have been used to summon the Dragoon.
This item is also available as a trophy and is most easily found by picking it up in Subspace Emissary or All-star mode, it is not very rare and won't take that long to find.
Smash Balls cannot be found in the Subspace Emissary.
