In the Swamp from SSE, there is a certain level with a waterfall. Ness will slowly rise due to his floatiness, rather than fall slowly. If you use PK Flash there, Ness will rise up even faster, so if that level was a stage, Ness could use PK Flash to recover.

Ness lands a fully charged PK flash on Captain Falcon (SSBM)
PK Flash in Brawl

PK Flash is a special attack that can be performed by Ness. It is a chargeable Neutral B attack. When the move is initiated, a ball of green light appears above Ness. As the B button is held, the ball of light moves downwards and increases in power, until the B button is released, or until it is fully charged, at which point it explodes. The ball of light is arguably easier to control in Brawl than it is in Melee. PK Flash can be charged until it falls to the altitude from where Ness initiated the attack. It can be slightly moved horizontally by using the control stick. If the attack falls upon a platform or a higher level of a stage before it is detonated, it will disappear harmlessly. When performed in the air, it puts Ness into a helpless falling animation. Fully charged, without the influence of special conditions, it deals a maximum damage of 39% with huge knockback. In Brawl, a good tip for PK Flash is to short hop first, then use it so you won't have to worry about letting go at the right time. Due to Ness's accent, many players mishear "PK Flash", instead hearing any of a variety of phrases, such as "PK Pulse". However, when Kirby copies Ness, he clearly says "PK Flash" when he uses it, even though the voice actor for Kirby and Ness are the same. If Ness' voice actress acted the way she did in SSB, Ness would probably pronounce PK Flash clearly.

Origin

PK (or PSI) Flash is one of Ness's unique moves in EarthBound. At its lower levels, it can only deal minor effects like crying and colds, but at the Ω level, it is capable of delivering one-hit KOs to all enemies. It, along with PSI Rockin', is the only PSI move unique to Ness. Lucas was also capable of using PK Flash in Mother 3. Template:Ness Special Moves

Trivia

In the Swamp from SSE, there is a certain level with a waterfall. Ness will slowly rise due to his floatiness, rather than fall slowly. If you use PK Flash there, Ness will rise up even faster, so if that level was a stage, Ness could use PK Flash to recover.
