The '''Tether Recovery''' is a technique used in the '''Smash Bros.''' games. A character launches something, Such as [[Link]]'s Hookshot or [[Samus Aran|Samus]]' Grapple Beam, which can be used to grab the edge of the stage and pull the character up. In the first two games, only [[Link]], [[Young Link]] and [[Samus Aran|Samus]] could do this, but the Tether Recovery has become much more common in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]. Various characters' moves use Tether Recoveries, such as [[Pokémon Trainer|Ivysaur]] and [[Zero Suit Samus]]. In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], because Link's design and character are based on the ''Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'' version, the Hookshot is replaced with the Clawshot.
A '''Tether Recovery''' is a type of [[recovery]] move where the player latches onto the side of an arena with an extendable item. So far, [[Zero Suit Samus]]'s [[Plasma Wire]], [[Link (SSBB)|Link]]'s [[Clawshot]], [[Ivysaur]]'s [[Vine Whip]], [[Lucas]]' [[Rope Snake]], and [[Pikmin & Olimar]]'s [[Pikmin Chain]] are the only confirmed Tether Recoveries. A similar move in SSBM (called the [[Wall-grapple]]) existed for [[Link (SSBM)|Link]], [[Young Link (SSBM)|Young Link]] and [[Samus (SSBM)|Samus]]; however, the difference between the two moves is that a tether seeks out a ledge, while wall-grapples activate when they touch any wall.

The Tether Recovery is a technique used in the Smash Bros. games. A character launches something, Such as Link's Hookshot or Samus' Grapple Beam, which can be used to grab the edge of the stage and pull the character up. In the first two games, only Link, Young Link and Samus could do this, but the Tether Recovery has become much more common in Brawl. Various characters' moves use Tether Recoveries, such as Ivysaur and Zero Suit Samus. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, because Link's design and character are based on the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess version, the Hookshot is replaced with the Clawshot.
