Trivia

• The event's description references one of the lines seen during the battle against Giygas in EarthBound, "You cannot grasp the true form of Giygas's attack!", as well as the "SMAAAASH!!" effect seen throughout the EarthBound series. The latter is also present in the event's Japanese title.
