Brawl]]'' that deprives certain [[character]]s of their [[recovery]] move if they have used it and are released from a [[grab]] without touching the ground or [[flinching]]. As a result, grabbing and releasing the character without [[pummel]]ling or [[throw]]ing will leave them with no recovery move, effectively guaranteeing a KO if they've already used their double jump. | ||

The glitch occurs because of the behaviour of each character's [[up special move]]. Most characters regain their up special move when they exit their [[helpless]] state in any way. But for characters that do not become helpless upon using their up special move, the restoration has to be done in a more case-by-case way. The glitch is a result of the situation "grabbed and released without being pummeled, being thrown, or landing" not being recognized as a way to interrupt recoveries, and so was not coded to restore recoveries in such situations. | The glitch occurs because of the behaviour of each character's [[up special move]].

As a result these characters must be very careful when recovering low or aiming for the edge, as a single grab against an intelligent opponent will instantly [[gimp]] them. | ||
