'''Elec Man''' ({{ja|エレキマン|Erekiman}}, ''Elecman'') is a character from the {{uv|Mega Man}} universe who appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' as an [[Assist Trophy]].

==Origin==
[[File:ElecManClassic.png|left|thumb|Elec Man battling Mega Man in the original ''Mega Man''.]]
Elec Man is one of the six Robot Master bosses in the first ''Mega Man'', and has reappeared in many games since. Like most of the other Robot Masters, Elec Man was created by Dr. Light, [[Mega Man]]'s creator, as an advanced humanoid robot to perform industrial tasks. In particular, he was designed to control energy usage in nuclear power plants, and was often hailed as one of Dr. Light's greatest creations due to his razor-sharp calculation and judgment. However, he was reprogrammed by Dr. Light's former friend turned enemy Dr. Wily, as part of his plan to conquer the world due to his jealousy of Light's success.

Elec Man's weapon of choice is the Thunder Beam, which fires an electric jolt in front of him. When Mega Man uses the weapon, he fires three electric jolts simultaneously above, below, and in front of him, much like the version of the attack in ''Smash''. As with other Robot Masters, Mega Man acquires this weapon upon defeating Elec Man, functioning the same way. It is recommended to fight Elec Man after Cut Man, as he is weak to the Rolling Cutter (or in the remake ''Mega Man Powered Up'', Oil Man's weapon, the Oil Slider). It is recommended to then fight Ice Man (or Time Man in ''Mega Man Powered Up'') as they are weak to Thunder Beam in their respective games. If Elec Man is defeated with only the Mega Buster in ''Mega Man Powered Up'', he can then be used as a playable character.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
===As an [[Assist Trophy]]===
[[File:ElecMan-WiiU2.png|left|thumb|Elec Man in action in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''.]]
Elec Man makes his ''Smash Bros.'' debut as an [[Assist Trophy]] in the fourth game of the series. Much like Mega Man, he uses his proportions from his original NES sprite rather than those of the official artwork. When summoned, Elec Man runs and jumps about the stage, unleashing multiple Thunder Beam attacks. He fires three balls of electricity (one straight up, one straight down, and one forwards). On some occasions, he will blast more than one in different directions, and rarely one in all three. If a jolt collides with an opponent, they will take damage and high knockback, enough to KO at the 70-90% range. These projectiles can be [[reflection|reflected]]. He will flinch if he is attacked, and attacking him enough will cause him to leave the stage early.

Elec Man has a spawn chance of {{Fractions|38|1254}}. He cannot be summoned on the following stages in a standard versus match (applies to both games and only the base form unless noted otherwise):
*[[Midgar]]
*{{SSB4|Mute City}}
*[[Suzaku Castle]]

===Trophy===
Elec Man's trophy appears in both versions. In {{forwiiu}} it is exclusive to the [[Trophy Shop]] and is part of the ''Mega Man'' [[Trophy Box]].
{{Trophy
|name=Elec Man
|image-3ds=ElecManTrophy3DS.png
|image-wiiu=ElecManTrophyWiiU.png
|desc-ntsc=A robot created to help manage the power at nuclear plants. He specializes in directing power flow, handling levels of energy that would short out lesser robots. When he is called into battle, he'll zip around while firing his Thunder Beam in all directions. Don't get zapped!
|desc-pal=A robot created to control the voltage of nuclear power plants. He's sharp, speedy, and excels at commanding electrical currents (an unexpected forte for a robot). When you call on him in this game, he'll zip around, firing his Thunder Beam up, down and straight ahead. Anyone hit by the beam will be in for a shock!

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==

===Spirit===
Elec Man does not return as an Assist Trophy, instead appearing as an Advanced-class [[primary spirit]]. In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], his spirit is located in the [[Power Plant]] sub-area of [[The Light Realm]].

His Spirit Battle uses a {{SSBU|Pikachu}} Libre puppet fighter with 140 HP and is fought on [[Wily Castle]]'s [[Battlefield form]]. The floor is electrified and Pikachu's electric attacks have increased power, representing Elec Man's electrical powers.
