{{Cquote|''Crash Crashes the Party!!!''|cite=''Introduction tagline}}

'''Crash''' is a playable character in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' [[mod]] ''[[Smash Remix]]''. He was added to the mod in its 2.0.0 release on June 25, 2025, serving as the second of two characters representing games released on rival platforms to the Nintendo 64, the other being {{SR|Sonic}}. Crash is the ninth character added to ''Smash Remix'' not to have been playable in an official ''Smash'' game, the fourth of those characters to have their own slot on the character select screen, and the third character after {{SR|Conker}} and {{SR|Marina}} to represent a universe unrepresented in the official games. In Crash's case, he represents the eponymous ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot Crash Bandicoot]'' series. Crash's character design and animations take from his in-game appearances in the PlayStation ''Crash'' games, being a goofy but anxious character as opposed to the confident and outwardly aggressive personification seen in American promotional materials.

Crash's voice clips consist of archived recordings taken from the PlayStation installments of the ''Crash Bandicoot'' series provided by the late Brendan O'Brien.

==Attributes==
Crash is a middleweight character known for having a really extensive and fluid combo game. He also has great mobility, as an example, Crash's dash gives him an instant large burst of speed, allowing him to quickly move in and out of situations quicker than a dodge would allow, and it can be cancelled into his neutral special, allowing him to extend combos over a long distance easily. Interestingly, Crash is also one of the few characters to have a forward throw that launches upwards.

===On-screen appearance===
*Does a Belly Flop out of a warp portal from the [https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Time_Twister_Machine Time Twister Machine].
===Taunt===
*Pulls [https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Aku_Aku Aku Aku] out and puts him on his face, before Aku Aku flies off his face. During the part of the taunt where Aku Aku is on his face, Crash is invulnerable.
===Idle poses===
*Stops and looks both ways with a confused expression.

===Victory poses===
*Spins before doing a "ta-da" pose, based on his animation when he obtains a gem in ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot Crash Bandicoot]''.
*Does the [https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Dance Crash Dance], using the original crotch chop and pelvic thrust instead of the censored "Running Man" version introduced in the ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_N._Sane_Trilogy N. Sane Trilogy]''. ([[CSS]] animation, starting from the crotch chop.)
*Crash sleeps as Aku Aku looks over him, shaking himself towards the end of the animation.

==Techniques==
===Dash spin===
[[File:Dash Spin.gif|thumb|right|Dash spin]]
Crash can gain a lot more horizontal momentum and travel much farther from his initial dash if he cancels it into his neutral special. This also allows him to extend combos over greater distances and travel faster in general.

===Instant flop===
[[File:Instant Flop.gif|thumb|right|Instant flop]]
If Crash's up special is used within the first few frames of leaving the ground after jumping, Crash will instantly flop on the floor as if he had just landed from up special. Since the move is so fast, it can be a really quick and strong way to hit anyone on the ledge because the hitbox reaches inside the ground a little bit.

===Spin jump===
Crash can jump at any point during his spin attack, and this allows him to combo into aerial attacks more easily after a spin. This can be done in combination with the dash spin to allow for greater mobility and combo fluidity.

==In Remix Modes==

===Remix 1P Mode===
*Crash can appear as an ordinary opponent, a giant opponent, or as a multi-man team, where he is fought on the Time Twister or the Snow Go stage.

===[[All-Star Mode]]===
*In All-Star Mode, Crash and his allies can appear on the Time Twister or the Snow Go stage.

==Profile==
''Crash Bandicoot is the spinning, crate-smashing powerhouse of the Wumpa Islands. He was captured by the evil Dr. Neo Cortex from the wild and subjected to the horrific Evolvo-Ray. To Cortex's dismay, Crash would become the mad scientist's downfall rather than the general of his mutant army. Time after time, this infernal bandicoot not only foils Cortex but also dances upon the pathetic remains of his ill-conceived plans!''

Works:
*''Crash Bandicoot (PS)''
*''Crash Team Racing (PS)''
*''Crash Bash (PS)''

==Trivia==
*Crash's portrait on the [[character selection screen]] greatly resembles [[wikipedia:File:Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back Game Cover.jpg|his appearance on the box art]] of ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_2:_Cortex_Strikes_Back Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back]''.
*Crash's stock icon is based on the [https://cdn2.steamgriddb.com/icon_thumb/8c97612c3a3f6f599b47dce13298f48a.png memory card save icon] for the original game.
*Crash's 2D art has him with pie-shaped eyes, a trait that exists in his Japanese promotional art, but has only been seen in-game in ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Tag_Team_Racing Crash Tag Team Racing]'', where it was a cosmetic locally and the default design in Japan, and in the Japanese-developed ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Boom_Bang! Crash Boom Bang!]'' where the Japanese art style was used universally and internationally.
*During Crash's clapping animation, he gets distracted midway through, looking behind himself before going back to clapping.
*Crash is the only character to have a home stage that transitions into its ''Remix'' variants.
*Crash's [[Break The Targets]] and [[Board the Platforms]] stages have a hidden extra life. Once collected, the song will change to the ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bash Crash Bash]'' loading screen theme.
*Crash's intro tagline ''"Crash Crashes The Party!!!"'' is a play/pun on his own name being used in verb form.
*Crash is the only ''Remix'' character whose skeleton model has visible clothing (his sneakers and pink, polka-dotted boxer shorts), which is a reference to one of his many comedic death animations in ''Cortex Strikes Back'' and the ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_N._Sane_Trilogy N. Sane Trilogy]'' remake, specifically by electric hazards.
**He is also the second ''Remix'' character whose skeleton model has visibly different colored hair, the first being {{SR|Bowser}}.
*Crash's polygon variant bears a striking resemblance to [https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Pinstripe_Potoroo Pinstripe Potoroo], the fourth boss in ''[https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot Crash Bandicoot]'', albeit much shorter and without a gun.
*[[Kirby (SSB)|Kirby]]'s version of the Spin is based on the Break Spin move from the {{iw|wikirby|Yo-Yo}} Copy Ability.
