The '''Fairy Bottle''' ({{ja|妖精のビン|Yōseinobin}}, ''Fairy Bottle'') is an item that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. It can be picked up and thrown, and can only be opened by a player with 100 or more [[damage]]; doing so will release the fairy inside, healing the user by 100 points.

Because it can't be opened by someone under 100 damage, they can wield it as both a weapon (against players that are also under 100 damage), use it on an ally to heal them, or just hold it as a backup for when their own damage reaches 100+, as it will automatically heal them as soon as their damage reaches 100 points. In this manner, it is a combination of the [[Heart Container]] and the [[Team Healer]].

In ''Brawl'', ''Fairy'' is an available sticker.

The Fairy Bottle is a thrown projectile item that ricochets off its target, allowing it to be caught and thrown again, dealing about 8 damage with medium knockback. If it is held by or hits a character with 100+ damage then, as [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqFvoyKk1A stated] on the Miiverse, it will open instantly and the fairy will heal that character by 100 points <ref>http://youtu.be/bocVx20fS_M?t=57s</ref>. Also, if [[eaten]] by a character under 100 damage, it will heal 1 point of damage like other items; however, doing so in All-Star Mode will not heal any damage.

;Fairy Bottle

:{{Flag|North America}} ''A bottle that contains a helpful fairy. You can release this fairy to heal 100 points of damage, but only if you have 100% or more. If you don't, you can still throw the bottle... Just don't hit a 100% or more enemy, or they'll be healed instead and you'll feel pretty silly.''

:{{Flag|Europe}} ''A bottle containing a Fairy with healing powers. If your damage is 100% or more, it'll heal you by 100. If not, then the Fairy won't do a thing. On the plus side, if someone else needs it, you can take it instead and have the smug satisfaction of stealing their precious hope away.''

Fairies first appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' and have appeared in almost every subsequent ''[[The Legend of Zelda (universe)|Zelda]]'' game since as a method of regaining health. ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past}}'' introduced the ability to capture Fairies in bottles, and many ''Zelda'' games since have also allowed this, which will cause the Fairy to be released automatically should [[Link]] lose all of his hearts. In ''Zelda'' games, a Fairy always heals a fixed number of hearts, usually six – whereas the player’s health bar starts out at three hearts but can rise to twenty.

The design of the Fairy in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' originates from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''; some later ''Zelda'' games have also retained this design of Fairies. These Fairies come in a variety of colors; usually blue, yellow, or pink. Typically in ''Zelda'' games, pink Fairies are the type of Fairies found that can heal Link and can be captured. In ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', the fairy is pink. The design of the bottle, however, comes from ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword}}''.

*The reveal [[picture of the day]] for this item is a reference to the game ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D World}}'', in which [[Bowser]] captures several {{s|mariowiki|Sprixie Princesses}} inside bottles.

*Likely because of the ability to heal hurt players accidentally, [[CPU]] players are extremely likely to either only pick up a Fairy Bottle only when they can be healed by it, or immediately throw the item away and off the stage. This is one of the few items a CPU-controlled player will purposely throw away, deliberately missing opponents.

*If a player has over 100% and picks up this item as soon as it bounces on the ground, it will make a buzzing noise as it heals the player.
