Item Departure is a technique originating from Super Smash Bros. Melee and returning in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
It is performed mostly by accident either when a character is on the ground, and/or is attempting to grab/catch a disappearing item. When next to the item, attempt to grab the item by pressing A or Z on the Nintendo GameCube controller, right before it disappears, if performed correctly, the item pick-up animation will appear, but the item will be gone.
