- For the technique referred to as "absorbing damage" by the Twinkle Toes bonus in Super Smash Bros. Melee, see tech.
Absorption is the process of using a particular special move to "catch" an opposing non-physical projectile, or a teammate's projectile if Team Attack is turned on. The assailant then provides some benefit to the character absorbing based on the attack power of the absorbed attack.
Only four characters in the Super Smash Bros. series have special moves that can absorb non-physical attacks, namely Ness, Lucas, Mii Gunner and Mr. Game & Watch. Ness and Lucas' absorbing special move is the PSI Magnet, Mr. Game & Watch's is Oil Panic, and the Mii Gunner's is Absorbing Vortex. PSI Magnet and Absorbing Vortex heal the user based on the absorbed attack's power, while Oil Panic stores the strength of up to three projectiles for unleashing a single attack.
As of version 1.1.3 in Super Smash Bros. 4, absorbed attack power from fellow teammates during Team Battles with Friendly Fire turned on is halved.
In The Subspace Emissary in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Floows are also capable of absorbing attacks, though they do not appear to do anything with the absorbed energy.
