The '''Banana Peel''' ({{ja|バナナのかわ|Banana no Kawa}}, ''Banana Peel'') is an [[item]] from the {{uv|Mario}} series.

==Origin==
[[File:Banana Peel Original Example.gif|thumb|left|[[Yoshi]]'s kart slips on a Banana Peel in ''Mario Kart 64'', sending him tumbling off of a cliff and allowing [[Wario]] to take a lead.]]
The Banana Peel made its debut to the ''Mario'' franchise in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' as an exclusive item used only by CPUs controlling Donkey Kong Jr., and has since become a recurring universal item in the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' series. It is a yellow banana peel with simple eyes and a smile. It can be placed on race courses as hazards which can cause a {{s|mariowiki|kart}} to slip and spin around for a short time. They tend to be distributed in batches of 3. It serves as the logo for the {{s|mariowiki|Banana Cup}}. The Banana Peel in ''Smash'' does not have a face, giving it a resemblance to its appearance in ''Mario Kart 64'' and ''Super Circuit'', as well as the unpeeled bananas seen often in {{uv|Mario}}'s sister series, {{uv|Donkey Kong}}.

Slipping on banana peels is a [[wikipedia:Banana peel#In comical context|classic slapstick gag]], tracing its origins back to 19th century America. The slipperiness of banana peels comes from vegetable oils contained within the peel, which are released as the peel is pressed, a more common example being when someone steps on it.

The ''Brawl'' trophy description states that the Banana Peels used in ''Smash'' are produced from {{iw|wikipedia|Japanese fiber banana}}s (''Musa basjoo''), a species of banana commonly cultivated across East Asia.

==Overview==
[[File:BananaPeel.jpg|thumb|Artwork of a Banana Peel in ''Brawl''.]]
===As an [[item]]===
The Banana Peel debuted as a throwing item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It uses a realistic design, as opposed to the cartoonish design with a face used in the ''Mario Kart'' series. In addition, it can't cause the fighter who placed them to [[Tripping|slip]].

The Banana Peel can be thrown like any other regular item. When the opponent steps on it, they slip and are temporarily stunned. The Banana Peel itself flies a short distance sideways, just far enough that if the slipper [[Floor Recovery|rolls]] the wrong way, they will slip again. [[Diddy Kong]]'s [[down special move]] generates Banana Peels even with items turned off, which is an important strategy in tournaments because it often disrupts an opponent's ground game, forcing them into the air. Banana Peels can also make opponents trip if their feet or shins touch a stationary banana during an attack on a platform above them.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', when the opponent slips on the Banana Peel, they disappear, so they cannot be used more than once. This change did not exist in early versions of the game. Additionally, {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}}'s [[Banana Peel (move)#Customization|custom down specials]] also spawn banana peels with different properties, and said banana peels are considered their own item.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Banana Peels no longer disappear upon contact with an opponent. Instead, they will last for two slips and/or throws until they disappear. Additionally, they now have [[transcendent priority]]. Also, Banana Peels are created when the fighter uses a [[Banana Gun]] which shoots an explosive banana projectile, leaving the player to hold the peel.

|desc-ntsc=Looks like someone had a nice snack and didn't bother to clean up afterward... As you may suspect, stepping on a banana peel sends you falling to the ground and exposes you to attacks. You can throw these at your opponents too, but please clean up when you're done, all right?
|desc-pal=HEY! Put that banana peel in the bin! ...Oh, you're going to trip up your opponent with it? Carry on, then. Of course, picking up and throwing banana peels at people is disgusting, but they'll have a hard time keeping their defences up if they're putting on a one-man slapstick act, so...go ahead.
