Snorlax (カビゴン, Kabigon) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise. It appears as a Poké Ball Pokémon in all four Smash Bros. games. It is the evolved form of Munchlax.

In Super Smash Bros.

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Snorlax uses Body Slam as its attack. Snorlax jumps in the air and disappears off the screen. Snorlax will then inflate itself, making it bigger, and descend towards the bottom of the screen. Any character that makes contact with Snorlax will take damage. Snorlax also destroys certain things on a stage. It will detonate certain explosive items like Bob-ombs and Motion-Sensor Bombs. Snorlax's attack does not harm the summoner.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Snorlax returns in Melee with exactly the same functionality, however, this time it descends much faster than in the last game.

As a stage element

A giant balloon of Snorlax (in actuality, the 3D model of Snorlax used in Pokémon Stadium for Nintendo 64) is one of the many floating and bending "platforms" that comprise the Poké Floats stage. The balloon's belly raises and lowers as if it is "breathing".

As a trophy

Snorlax features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various Single-player Regular Matches. It reads as follows:

Snorlax
Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 880 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weight in at over 1,000 pounds.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Snorlax returns in Brawl with exactly the same functionality.

As a Trophy

A Sleeping Pokémon. It's the ultimate loafer. Sometimes children like to play on top of its big belly. Once in a slumber, not even the hardest rain or the fiercest wind will wake it. Snorlax recovers health and restores its physical state by sleeping, and it proves daunting with its damaging Snore attack. Snorlax is the king of Sleeping Pokémon.

Trivia

  • In Super Smash Bros. and Brawl, if Snorlax gets hit by a strong enough attack before it jumps, it will jump diagonally.
