The Tether Recovery is a technique used in the Smash Bros. games. A character launches something, Such as Link's Hookshot or Samus' Grapple Beam, which can be used to grab the edge of the stage and pull the character up. In the first two games, only Link, Young Link and Samus could do this, but the Tether Recovery has become much more common in Brawl. Various characters' moves use Tether Recoveries, such as Ivysaur and Zero Suit Samus. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, because Link's design and character are based on the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess version, the Hookshot is replaced with the Clawshot.
