'''Hammer''' ({{ja|ハンマー|Hanmā}}, ''Hammer'') | '''Hammer''' ({{ja|ハンマー|Hanmā}}, ''Hammer''), known as '''Hammer Flip''' ({{ja|鬼ごろし火炎ハンマー|Oni-Goroshi Kaen Hanmā}}, ''[[wikipedia:Oni|Oni/Demon]]-Slayer Fire Flame Hammer'') in the [[NTSC]] version of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', is [[Kirby]]'s [[side special move]], introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. When used, Kirby takes hold of a hammer and horizontally swings it forwards, dealing a strong blow to enemies at medium range. | ||

When used on the ground, the hammer has a very [[punish]]able [[sourspot]]. | |||
When used on the ground | |||
When used in the air, the attack takes on a new form, where Kirby swings the hammer in a vertical forward-somersaulting circle. This version of the attack strikes multiple times and can be used to slow Kirby's fall. Not only that, said midair version can be used to rack up decent damage via its wide hitbox after moves like Kirby's forward throw, regardless if it misses or not. | |||

When used in the air, Kirby swings the hammer horizontally twice, with the first hit being stronger with diagonal knockback and the second hit being a [[semi-spike]]. This version of the attack is useful against [[boss]]es, as it can deal a total of 32% damage when both hits connect, and it can be used multiple times in one jump. It also decreases Kirby's falling speed, and can aid Kirby's horizontal recovery by a small distance. However, it does not provide any distance when used without moving horizontally. | When used in the air, Kirby swings the hammer horizontally twice, with the first hit being stronger with diagonal knockback and the second hit being a [[semi-spike]].

The '''non-bouncing Kirby glitch''' is a glitch that prevents Kirby from bouncing on springs. It is accomplished by using Hammer just before landing on any non-item spring. | The '''non-bouncing Kirby glitch''' is a glitch that prevents Kirby from bouncing on springs.

| | Kirby's Hammer retains its function in ''Smash 4''. However, it can now be charged with functionality like [[Jet Hammer]], allowing Kirby to move around and jump while charging the move. Also like the Jet Hammer, Kirby will receive [[recoil damage]] if the move is charged for too long, though this damage is not inflicted if Kirby's damage reaches or is above 100%. The move now uses a [[flame]] effect. When fully charged, it can KO at 40%. The Hammer Flip is Kirby's most powerful attack. It has less knockback when used in the air, but Kirby still swings twice if the attack is not fully charged. | ||
| | |||
In the [[NTSC]] version of ''Smash 4'', the move is called '''Hammer Flip''', the same name as a different move usable by Hammer Kirby in the {{uv|Kirby}} series that is his Up+{{button|3DS|B}} attack in the games. The move is still called '''Hammer''' in [[PAL]] regions, and the name "Hammer Flip" refers only to the fully charged version of the move. | |||
}} | The way Kirby moves while charging the move is similar to unused animations found in the files for the character in ''Brawl'', suggesting that Hammer Flip was intended for inclusion in ''Brawl''. | ||
==Customization== | |||
Special Move customization was added in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These are the variations: | |||
# '''Hammer Bash''': Similar to Hammer in ''Brawl''. | |||
# '''Giant Hammer''': The hammer is giant, making it much slower, but also much stronger, as well as giving it slightly more range. | |||

Hammer is one of Kirby's many Copy Abilities from his various adventures, most frequently obtained by [[Inhale|inhaling]] the mini-boss [[Bonkers]]. It is often one of the most powerful ones, dealing massive damage to enemies. The hammer is almost identical in appearance to King Dedede's. The way Kirby swings his hammer is almost similar to the Hammer Flip move from the said ability (where Kirby swings upward/inwards with a flaming hammer), rather than swinging downward from above his head, like in the ''Kirby'' series. His midair version of the attack in ''Melee'' resembles the midair attack done with the ability, Giant Hammer Swing, though Kirby would only swing the hammer once in midair. | |||

{{ | In ''Smash 4'', the Hammer Flip is based on the move of the same name in the ''Kirby'' series, which deals the most damage of any move gained from a standard Copy Ability. The Giant Hammer custom variation is most likely derived off of one of the Hammer ability's moves only in ''Kirby: Squeak Squad'', where Kirby can enlarge his hammer for a massive delayed smash (but the attack must be learned through its Copy/Ability Scroll first). | ||

''Swing a mighty hammer vertically in the air or side-to-side on the ground.'' | |||

''Attack with a giant hammer. The attack strikes horizontally in the air and on the ground.'' | |||

* | *In early gameplay footage for ''Smash 4'', Kirby initially used Hammer Flip and Final Cutter with his "default" expression; in the final build, his expression changes into a serious one as he swings and charges the Hammer. | ||
* | *In ''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS'', if Kirby swings his hammer before it is fully charged (or uses Hammer Bash) and destroys a destructible platform he is standing on, he will fly forward through the air. It is currently unknown if this occurs in other games. | ||
