| | #REDIRECT [[Yoshi's Story#Randall the Cloud]] |
| '''Randall the Cloud''' is the cloud that appears on the [[Yoshi's Story]] stage, often to assist the recovery process. The term derived originally from Canadian smasher [[FastFox]], and it has since taken off as a norm on [[Smash World Forums]].

| Randall's complete round trip through the stage and out the other side takes exactly 20 seconds. As such, many players attempt to summon Randall (via a strained shout) in their darkest moments. It is not uncommon that a player will fall just short of the edge, only to see Randall's devious smile as he emerges half a second later. When an attempt to land on Randall fails, most players proceed to scream "RAAAANDAAALL!" at the top of their lungs in indignation. | |

| Curiously, although the cloud's name emerged out of the smash community in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, it actually bears no relationship whatsoever to [[smasher]] [[Randall00]] (RJM), who hosts [[Pro Impact BI-WEEKLY Smash|tournaments]] in the neighbouring city of Calgary. In reality, the cloud was dubbed "Randall" long before a smash community even existed in Calgary and the whole matter is nothing more than a peculiar coincidence.

| | |
| RJM has been known to periodically apologize on behalf of the cloud.
