==Plunge==
The '''plunge''' effect is similar to the bury effect, and in most situations, it acts exactly the same. The main difference is that, if the target is standing on a [[Platform#Soft_platforms|soft platform]], they will be hit down through the platform after the "buried" animation has finished instead of popping back up.
The only attack to use the plunge effect is that of the [[Pitfall]].

Villager burying Mario and Bowser in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Bury is an attack effect in the Super Smash Bros. series that debuted in Super Smash Bros. Melee and has appeared in every subsequent game.

Grounded fighters hit by a bury attack are buried for an amount of time based on the victim's total damage; non-grounded fighters hit by a bury attack instead take knockback as usual. Bury hitboxes are weight independent and ignore metal characters' knockback resistance. A prone opponent cannot be buried in Melee and SSB4, but they can in Brawl, and an opponent who has tripped can also be buried.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Support Spirit skill Bury Immunity prevents the equipped fighter from being buried, but does not affect the damage it takes from bury attacks.

Bury attacks typically meteor smash airborne opponents, often giving them good edgeguarding abilities. This is solely a design convention and is not a property of the bury effect.

Plunge

Plunge is an attack effect similar to the bury effect that also causes victims to become buried. However, if an opponent standing on a soft platform is hit by a plunge attack, instead of being buried they briefly have the appearance of being buried before falling straight down.

The plunge effect is exclusive to the Pitfall item.
