Separating "intentional" from "incidental"
I've always had the opinion that listing pointless, trapping-only meteor smashes beside attacks designed to KO off the bottom is a bad idea. It is slightly confusing and most users will probably only care about one at a time. Seeing as this page is one of the biggest on the wiki, I suggest we split incidental meteor smashes onto a subpage and leave all the intentional ones here. Toomai Glittershine

- We could do a split like that, though we should use different names, as "incidental" with the other being "intentional" seems to imply something was a meteor smash due to a programming mistake, something we are completely incapable of verifying. Omega Tyrant
14:17, 6 May 2012 (EDT) - How would we define a "pointless" meteor smash from an "intentional" one? Some attacks have meteor smash hitboxes that are obviously designed to link into the other hits, such as Sonic's up smash, but others aren't so cut and dried. For example, would King Dedede's down aerial meteor smash be considered pointless or intentional? Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 14:21, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
Maybe we could use "incidental" for the "pointless" meteor smashes (the ones whose primary purpose is to keep opponents in range for the rest of the attack) and not have a specific name for intentional ones?
Dedede's dair would be incidental, since as far as I'm aware it's not feasible to avoid connecting with the final hit. Toomai Glittershine The Emissary 15:40, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
- I'm failing to see how this is in any way a useful categorization. I think it's more likely to cause confusion than provide any useful information. Miles (talk) 16:09, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
- Dedede can land it right after the initial hit (it's also feasible for the opponent to get hit by the tip of it and SDI below). I've done it to people a few times. Also, look at my post on why "incidental" should not be used. Omega Tyrant 17:19, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
