Guided Robo Beam (誘導ロボビーム, Guided Robo Beam) is R.O.B.'s Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Overview

When activated, R.O.B. transforms into a laser cannon and fires a series of small lasers that home in on opponents that are close enough to him. These lasers have knockback angles that are meant to drag opponents in front of R.O.B., in preparation for the main laser. R.O.B then unleashes a green laser that can be slowly angled up or down. After a couple of seconds the laser performs a final blow by growing larger, about the size of Samus' Zero Laser, and sends opponents flying. While the homing lasers are meant to forcibly position opponents in front of R.O.B, the bulk of the Final Smash can be avoided simply by standing a distance behind him.

Instructional Quotes

Move List

R.O.B. automatically lock on to multiple opponents, then fires homing lasers at them. Finish the attack by shooting a giant beam that hits multiple targets. The angle of the beam can be adjusted up or down.

Origin

Guided Robo Beam is a completely Smash original, having no equivalent in Gyromite or Stack-Up, the only two games that are compatible with R.O.B. The Beam aspect of the move is very loosely adapted from the Optoelectronic technology used by R.O.B. and the Zapper to communicate with games.

Trivia

• This is the first of R.O.B's Final Smashes not to have the name "Diffusion" in it.
• If Guided Robo Beam is used on 10 or more Ice Climbers, the beam will glitch out and become invisible.
• The challenge "Dharkon", unlocked by winning the battle against Dharkon, shows a screenshot of R.O.B. using the Guided Robo Beam against Dharkon. However, it is not possible to achieve without the use of mods or hacks since Final Smashes will not appear in any boss battles.
