'''Item Swallowing''' is a new technique in ''[[Super Smash Bros Brawl]]''. It can be performed by [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby]], [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede]], and [[Wario (SSBB)|Wario]]. These characters can use their [[neutral B]] moves to eat an item. King Dedede uses [[Inhale (King Dedede)|Inhale]], Wario uses [[Chomp]], and Kirby uses [[Swallow]]. When an item is swallowed, it takes some time for the character to swallow it. Small items like [[food]] are immediately swallowed, but large items like barrels have the characters briefly remain bloated with the item in their stomach, before they eventually swallow it. Some items such as [[Warp Star]]s take immediate effect upon being eaten, but most simply disappear. Explosive items that are eaten by Wario will cause him to take 6% damage, however the player will also damage nearby characters for about 15%. However, the others simply take 5% damage with no other effects. It's wise to eat thrown bombs if they can't be easily dodged because the knockback is zero from eating a bomb.

'''Item-swallowing''' is a technique in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', performable by [[Kirby]], [[King Dedede]], and [[Wario]]. These characters can use their [[neutral special move]]s to eat most [[item]]s. Kirby and King Dedede use [[Inhale]] while Wario uses [[Chomp]] though Kirby can also use King Dedede’s Inhale and Wario’s Chomp as well to eat items if he copies them. Additionally, [[Munchlax]] uses the same list for the items it will eat.


With Inhale and Swallow, the player must usually stand directly next to an item. However, certain items will be actually [[Vacuum|pulled in]] from a greater distance, like characters are.
When an item is swallowed, it takes some time for the character to swallow it. Light items are immediately swallowed, but non-explosive heavy items like [[barrel]]s have the characters briefly remain bloated with the item in their stomach, before they eventually swallow it. Explosive items that are eaten will cause about 5% [[damage]] to the consumer, and if it is eaten by using Chomp, will also deal 13% damage to nearby opponents.


Interestingly, eating the [[Peanut Popgun]] shots does not heal any damage unless the shell has been broken. While it will stop the projectile, it leaves Kirby vulnerable while swallowing and thus is generally not recommended.
[[Food]] and other recovery items (except the [[Team Healer]]), [[Dragoon]] and [[Daybreak]] parts, [[Superspicy Curry]], [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[Poison Mushroom]]s, [[Warp Star]]s, [[Super Star]]s, [[Metal Box]]es, and [[Timer]]s take immediate effect upon being eaten.


[[Munchlax]]'s function as a [[Pokeball|Pokeball Pokemon]] is to eat all the items on the stage.
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', it has been [[buffed]], as {{SSB4|Kirby}} and {{SSB4|Wario}} can restore 1% damage from eating most items. Swallowing healing items has the same effect as using them normally. For example, swallowing a [[Fairy Bottle]] will heal 1% if the character is at less than 100% damage and will heal 100% damage if above. Wario and {{SSB4|King Dedede}} gain 1.5x more HP from eating food items (Kirby can [[List of Copy Abilities|copy]] Wario's Chomp or King Dedede's Inhale for the same effect). Wario and King Dedede can also now eat energy [[projectile]]s like {{SSB4|Ness}}'s [[PK Fire]] and {{SSB4|Mario}}'s [[Fireball]]s, but do not receive any health. Finally, eating items, projectiles from items (like the [[Ray Gun]]'s projectiles), and foods will increase the [[Wario Waft]]'s charge for Wario.


[[Category: Techniques]]
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', it has been further buffed for both {{SSBU|Kirby}} and {{SSBU|King Dedede}}. Kirby, upon inhaling a projectile, can either spit it back out as a star or swallow it to recover some health. King Dedede's Inhale acts as a [[Reflection|reflecting move]], returning projectiles in their original form with a 1.5× damage multiplier.

Kirby and King Dedede swallow items using Inhale.
Wario swallowing a crate using Chomp.

Item-swallowing is a technique in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, performable by Kirby, King Dedede, and Wario. These characters can use their neutral special moves to eat most items. Kirby and King Dedede use Inhale while Wario uses Chomp though Kirby can also use King Dedede’s Inhale and Wario’s Chomp as well to eat items if he copies them. Additionally, Munchlax uses the same list for the items it will eat.

When an item is swallowed, it takes some time for the character to swallow it. Light items are immediately swallowed, but non-explosive heavy items like barrels have the characters briefly remain bloated with the item in their stomach, before they eventually swallow it. Explosive items that are eaten will cause about 5% damage to the consumer, and if it is eaten by using Chomp, will also deal 13% damage to nearby opponents.

Food and other recovery items (except the Team Healer), Dragoon and Daybreak parts, Superspicy Curry, Super Mushrooms, Poison Mushrooms, Warp Stars, Super Stars, Metal Boxes, and Timers take immediate effect upon being eaten.

In Super Smash Bros. 4, it has been buffed, as Kirby and Wario can restore 1% damage from eating most items. Swallowing healing items has the same effect as using them normally. For example, swallowing a Fairy Bottle will heal 1% if the character is at less than 100% damage and will heal 100% damage if above. Wario and King Dedede gain 1.5x more HP from eating food items (Kirby can copy Wario's Chomp or King Dedede's Inhale for the same effect). Wario and King Dedede can also now eat energy projectiles like Ness's PK Fire and Mario's Fireballs, but do not receive any health. Finally, eating items, projectiles from items (like the Ray Gun's projectiles), and foods will increase the Wario Waft's charge for Wario.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, it has been further buffed for both Kirby and King Dedede. Kirby, upon inhaling a projectile, can either spit it back out as a star or swallow it to recover some health. King Dedede's Inhale acts as a reflecting move, returning projectiles in their original form with a 1.5× damage multiplier.

Trivia[edit]

  • When using Inhale, the player must usually stand directly next to an item. However, certain items will be actually pulled in from a greater distance.
  • Munchlax's function as a Poké Ball Pokémon is to eat all the items (except Trophies, CDs, Stickers, other Poké Balls and Smash Balls) on the stage.
  • Despite being able to eat both enemies and fruits in his home series, Yoshi cannot swallow items in Smash, making him the only character that can hold opponents in his mouth but cannot swallow items.
  • Characters who can swallow items can eat Sandbag in the Wi-Fi room, but another will reappear instantly.
  • Wario swallows items quicker than Kirby and Dedede, but still takes a while to swallow big things, such as his bike.
