'''Gravity''' is a measure of how fast a falling [[character]] reaches their maximum [[falling speed]]. A character with high gravity does not necessarily have a fast falling speed; they simply reach their top falling speed faster.

Gravity is a measure of how fast a falling character reaches their maximum falling speed. A character with high gravity does not necessarily have a fast falling speed; they simply reach their top falling speed faster.

The vertical knockback suffered by characters is based on both their weight and their gravity, with higher-gravity characters taking slightly more knockback; horizontal knockback is unaffected. This is an attempt to balance the ability to combo various characters, although the effect of gravity on knockback is minor. It is believed this only occurs in Brawl but may occur in the other two games.

Gravity also affects how high a character is able to jump; two characters with the same jump force will not jump the same height if they have different gravity.
