'''Peach Blossom''' is [[Peach (SSBB)|Peach's]] [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. When used, two drawings of Peach and multiple hearts frame the screen as Peach dances. The Peach drawings flank the window, and the hearts appear all over the screen. A sped-up rendition of the Coin Heaven theme plays to accompany Peach's dancing.  All grounded opponents fall [[asleep]], and all opponents take 10%, 20%, or 40% damage (depending on distance). Characters sleep for longer the closer they are to Peach; this can easily exceed ten seconds even with [[button mashing]]. Regardless of whether enemies fall asleep or not, dozens of health-restoring [[Food|peaches]] appear. Once the Final Smash is complete, Peach can heal herself easily and/or get free hits on her sleeping opponents. It is recomended to use powerful attacks on them, like [[smash attack]]. If they have high percentages, they may get KOed.

Template:Infobox Final Smash Peach Blossom is Peach's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When used, two drawings of Peach and multiple hearts frame the screen as Peach dances. The Peach drawings flank the window, and the hearts appear all over the screen. A sped-up rendition of the Coin Heaven theme plays to accompany Peach's dancing. All grounded opponents fall asleep, and all opponents take 10%, 20%, or 40% damage (depending on distance). Characters sleep for longer the closer they are to Peach; this can easily exceed ten seconds even with button mashing. Regardless of whether enemies fall asleep or not, dozens of health-restoring peaches appear. Once the Final Smash is complete, Peach can heal herself easily and/or get free hits on her sleeping opponents. It is recomended to use powerful attacks on them, like a smash attack. If they have high percentages, they may get KOed.

As with any cause of sleep, only characters that are grounded are effected. Characters with many jumps, slow falling speed, and/or good recovery moves can remain airborne during the entire Final Smash. Other ways of avoiding the Final Smash include grabbing edges, wall clinging, and grabbing ladders. These techniques may not stop a character from taking damage, but avoiding the sleep portion of the Final Smash makes it relatively easy to eat the peaches that appear. The fact that the camera zooms on Peach during the final smash, it may be harder for opponents to attemp to stay in midair and they can unconsciously make a self-destruct, since they can't see where they are going.

Since sleeping characters cannot move, this Final Smash is most effective on scrolling stages.

Origin

The move is unique to Brawl; the name, effect, and fruit being an obvious pun on her name. However, Peach has shown the ability to put enemies to sleep in Super Mario RPG using her "Sleepy Time" ability. The Peach drawings may have been inspired by Super Princess Peach. Slowing down time reveals that the Final Smash music is a sped up remix of the music in the Sky and Coin Heaven levels of Super Mario Bros. 3 ([1]).

Trophy Info

Peach's Final Smash. Images of the princess border the screen and a rain of peaches falls. While this is happening, all the other characters fall asleep. So, Peach's dilemma is this--does she eat the peaches to lower her damage, or does she smack around her dozing enemies? Take stock of the situation and choose the path that leads to victory.

Trivia

  • The Super Smash Bros. Brawl Premiere Edition Guide states that Peach's Final Smash does not inflict damage, and only puts an enemy to sleep. This is incorrect.
