'''Crawling''' (also known as '''crouch walking''') is a [[fighter ability|technique]] introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. While [[crouching]], certain characters can move while staying low to the ground, allowing them to potentially avoid some attacks or [[projectile]]s. In ''Brawl'', crawling characters only have access to [[down tilt]] and [[Down special move|down special]] as immediate offensive options, but subsequent entries in the series allow any regular grounded option to be used out of a crawl immediately, greatly expanding the technique's utility. | '''Crawling''' (also known as '''crouch walking''') is a [[fighter ability|technique]] introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

*Pikachu's [[hurtbox]] height varies depending whether it is crawling forward or backward. Normally, when Pikachu crawls forward, its tail lies low to the ground, allowing it to avoid certain projectiles like [[Fox]]'s {{b|Blaster|Fox}}; but while crawling backwards, its tail is held over its body, which allows it to be hit by projectiles that would fly harmlessly above it while crawling forward. Squirtle's tail acts similarly. | *Pikachu's [[hurtbox]] height varies depending whether it is crawling forward or backward.

**Similarly, when [[Rosalina]] crawls, her hurtbox height is slightly changed, with her behind being raised slightly when crawling forward, while her behind is lowered slightly when crawling backwards. | **Similarly, when [[Rosalina]] crawls, her hurtbox height is slightly changed, with her behind being raised slightly when crawling forward, while her behind is lowered slightly when crawling backwards. |
