Confirmed on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] website on August 17, 2007, '''Peach''' ({{ja|ピーチ}}, ''Pīchi'') is a veteran [[character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Her play style appears to be relatively unchanged from ''[[Melee]]'', as she still possesses her floating ability, as well as her four distinct [[special move]]s. She has, however, been updated graphically with a more realistic look and based on her most recent appearances in the {{uv|Mario}} series. According to an interview with Sakurai, Peach's entire character layout, which consists of attack configuration, animation schemes, and so forth, was one of the most time consuming of all characters to configure from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl''.

Peach currently ranks 19th on the [[tier list]], the highest of all ''Mario'' series characters, not including spin-offs, in the bottom of the upper-mid tier, which while still fairly high, is a significant drop from her 6th placement at top tier in ''Melee''. Peach possesses a versatile [[item]] based [[projectile]] in her [[Turnip]]s, that are effective at keeping opponents at bay when [[camping]], as well as aiding her [[approach]] by allowing her to utilise her effective [[glide toss]]. Peach additionally possesses a unique ability in her [[float]]ing, which besides aiding her [[recovery]], allows her to repeatedly use [[aerial]]s without landing or having to jump between aerials, as well as allows her to use aerials with a Turnip or any other throwable item in hand. Peach also possesses one of the best horizontal recoveries, strong [[edgeguarding]] capabilities, strong [[combo]]ing and [[damage]] racking capabilities, and due to her floating ability and fast, strong aerial attacks, a strong aerial game. Peach has difficulties in [[KO]]ing opponents, however, despite possessing many potential KO moves, as they either require hitting with difficult to land [[sweetspot]]s, and/or possess low base knockback, which hinders their ability to KO near [[blastline]]s earlier, or low knockback scaling, which hinders their ability to KO more reliably at higher percents. Peach's thrown Turnips also cover shorter distance than most projectiles, which when combined with her slow movement, leads to her getting outcamped by the majority of higher tier characters. Peach additionally possesses poor endurance with poor [[momentum cancelling]], especially vertically, while being a larger character; a poor ground game possessing short [[reach]]ing, rather ineffective ground attacks, and mediocre [[throw]]s; and the worst [[air dodge]] with a whopping 30 frames of [[ending lag]], which, when combined with her very [[floaty|floaty falling speed]], makes it difficult to defend against [[juggle]]s and aerial followups. Peach overall has above average [[matchup]]s, including a winning matchup against the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}}, and above average [[tournament]] results.
