Clay Shooting (クレー射撃, Clay Shooting) is Duck Hunt's side special move in Super Smash Bros. 4.
Overview
When the move is activated, the dog throws a Clay Pigeon from the Duck Hunt games. The Clay Pigeon glides slowly through the air, inflicting 2% damage every time it connects, and it will eventually fall down to the ground if the player does not perform another input. The player can press the B button for the Gunman to shoot it down, with each of its shots dealing damage with low knockback. If all shots connect, the attack deals a total of 10% damage. The angle that the Pigeon is thrown changes if the input is done as a Smash input. The Clay Pigeon, however, can be easily destroyed by most damaging hitboxes.
Like with Trick Shot and all of Duck Hunt's smash attacks, the color of the target circle changes depending on which player is using Duck Hunt.
Customization
Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the known variations:
| 1. Clay Shooting | 2. Rising Clay | 3. Clay Break |
|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
| "Toss a clay pigeon. Press the button again to fire a volley of three shots at its position." | "Toss a clay pigeon that can't be shot. The farther it goes, the more it hurts." | "Toss a clay pigeon that's harder to shoot, but the shots deal more damage." |
- Clay Shooting: Default.
- Rising Clay: The clay pigeon rises higher into the air, giving it more air time.
- Clay Break: The clay pigeon can be shot at three times. Each shot is inaccurate, and may or may not hit the clay pigeon. The only accurate shot is the final shot, which always hits the clay pigeon. These shots are much stronger than the standard variation.
Trophy
- Clay Pigeon
A small, white disc used as a target in the Clay Shooting mode in Duck Hunt. In Smash Bros., Duck Hunt's default side special launches a clay pigeon through the air. It doesn't do much damage if it hits, but you can press the button again to shoot at it. The first two shots will narrowly miss, but you know what they say: "third time's a charm!"
