Ridley, is a [[weight|heavyweight]] character and the tallest fighter in the game, tied for the 12th heaviest character, and possesses the third lowest [[traction]]. Ridley has overall good mobility, especially compared to most of his fellow heavyweights: with two midair jumps, slightly above average [[walk]] speed, tied with {{SSBU|Charizard}} for the 10th fastest [[dash]]ing speed, average [[air speed]], [[air acceleration]] and [[gravity]], and the 17th fastest [[falling speed]]. Ridley also boasts a faster frame data than most heavyweights, further setting him apart from them.

Ridley also boasts a faster frame data than most heavyweights, further setting him apart from them.

Ridley's most defining trait is his potent and varied [[punishment|punish]] game and aerial pressure. With remarkably long range, high power and decent speed throughout his moveset, as well as a [[projectile]], Ridley is a serious threat once he gets the advantage; with opponents often overwhelmed and/or find it difficult to get in. His key strength is his strong air game. Boasting overall quick, powerful, long-ranged aerials, and decent air mobility give Ridley overall excellent air pressure potential. Thanks to his additional jump and relatively high fast fall speed, he has superb vertical flexibility, and can use additional jumps or surprise fastfalls to fake out and punish his opponents with his far-reaching aerials. His [[neutral aerial]] is arguably his most effective aerial, due to having low all-around lag, good range, and average knockback. It is a good comboing, spacing, and [[edge-guarding]] tool, while also being fast enough to break out opposing pressure if positioned correctly; these traits make it among the best of its kind and one of Ridley's most commonly used moves. [[Forward aerial]], while having merely average power, has the highest damage output of Ridley's aerials when all hits are sweetspotted, and is infamous for being able to perform a [[wall of pain]] at low percentages, especially due to Ridley's aforementioned two midair jumps. [[Back aerial]] is decently quick, long-ranged and has consistently high damage and knockback, which makes it a deadly KO move, especially if used off-stage for edge-guarding. [[Up aerial]] is a good, disjointed juggling move with decent startup and good KO potential when sweetspotted, but requires opponents to be very close to or above Ridley to land. Lastly, [[down aerial]] is a stall-and-fall that powerfully [[meteor smash]]es opponents when sweetspotted, and can potentially be recovered from if initiated slightly above the ground. Even when sourspotted, it has high KO potential, similar to Bowser's own down aerial.
