The Banana Gun (バナナガン, Banana Gun) is a shooting type item introduced in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
The Banana Gun is a one-use ranged item that appears as a simple banana. Contrary to its appearance, it fires a single banana fruit "bullet" that travels forward slowly and explodes with contact with anything, dealing 30% damage and high knockback alongside a comical banana-filled explosion. Once its single round of ammo is used, throwing it causes it to turn into a Banana Peel.
Spirits
Equipping the Piantas, Swanky Kong or Ukiki support spirits will give the player a Banana Gun at a start of their stock.

Trivia
- A similar weapon is used by the Eggplant Wizard in the animated series Captain N: The Game Master. The gun is held and fired in an identical fashion; however, when struck by the banana 'bullet' the target is trapped in a giant banana peel as opposed to exploding.
- A similar weapon is used by Big Boss in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. It cannot fire a banana 'bullet' however.
