Stance mirroring also affects which hand characters use to hold, swing, and throw [[item]]s. Turning around will cause a held item to simply teleport to the other hand (there is no animation for it). A fighter with stance mirroring that is [[reverse]]d (for example, by Mario's [[Cape]]) or [[double jump]]s in the opposite direction (if they possess multiple double jumps, with the exceptions of [[Kirby]] and [[Jigglypuff]]) can be seen in a non-mirrored position for a short time, before suddenly snapping into the proper mirrored position. | Stance mirroring also affects which hand characters use to hold, swing, and throw [[item]]s.

As some characters mirror while others do not, it is possible for interactions to differ based on whether the characters are facing each other left-to-right versus right-to-left. For example, a mirroring character's thin attack may hit [[Marth]]'s extended sword arm from one direction, but not the other, as [[Z-axis|the third dimension]] alters whether the two collide or pass by. As [[Cloud]] is not mirrored, his side special move [[Cross Slash]] notably has two different animations depending | As some characters mirror while others do not, it is possible for interactions to differ based on whether the characters are facing each other left-to-right versus right-to-left.

Stance mirroring is not present in games before ''Smash 4'', though some [[special move]]s and many [[taunt]]s in ''[[Melee]]'' and ''[[Brawl]]'' have a different animation for each direction to accomplish a similar effect. | Stance mirroring is not present in games before ''Smash 4'', though some [[special move]]s and many [[taunt]]s in ''[[Melee]]'' and ''[[Brawl]]'' have a different animation for each direction to accomplish a similar effect. | ||
