The '''Pitfall''' ({{ja|おとしあなのタネ|Otoshiana no Tane}}, ''Pitfall Seed'') is an [[item]] that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It hails from the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} series.


The '''Pitfall''' ({{ja|おとしあなのタネ}}, ''otoshiana no tane'', lit:''Pitfall seed'') is an [[item]] that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It hails from the [[Animal Crossing (universe)|Animal Crossing series]]. When thrown, the Pitfall bounces off walls until it touches the ground, which it then embeds itself into with no trace, but will disappear after a few minutes. Unless the opponent is invincible, the next enemy to walk onto its location gets driven into the ground and will take some damage; this causes them to be [[buried]] if on a hard [[platform]], though if they are on a pass-through platform they will go clean through it and continue downwards. This also happens when the item is thrown at a grounded enemy. This can be used to score easy [[KO]]s on custom stages made by the [[Stage Builder]] that have pass-through platforms as their base. When thrown at an airborne enemy, the target is [[meteor smash]]ed. Buried Pitfalls disappear with a puff of smoke after a long time, if no one goes onto it.  
==Origin==
[[File:PitfallSeed.jpg|thumb|left|A player finds a Pitfall Seed in ''Animal Crossing: New Leaf''.]]
In all games in the ''Animal Crossing'' series, pitfall seeds are items that can be found buried in the ground with the exception of ''New Horizons'', which requires a crafting recipe for a pitfall seed. If the player or an animal walks over a buried pitfall seed, they will fall and be temporarily stuck in a hole. Players can dig up pitfall seeds and rebury them elsewhere, making it possible to pull "pranks" by setting traps for animals or other players to fall into. Unlike in ''Smash'', buried pitfall seeds are visible in the form of a star-shaped mark on the ground, although they are indistinguishable from other buried items such as fossils.

==Overview==
When thrown, the Pitfall can bounces off walls until it touches the ground, which it then embeds itself into with no trace, waiting for an opponent to walk over it. The next opponent to walk onto its location will sustain damage and become [[buried]]. If nobody activates the Pitfall, it will despawn in a puff of smoke after 40 seconds. Characters on a solid [[platform]] will remain buried for the normal duration as determined how much [[damage]] they sustained, though characters on a fall-through platform will be spiked downwards through the platform after the "buried" animation has finished. When thrown, the Pitfall also has a hitbox, and if it hits a grounded opponent, it will activate on them, and bury them for even longer. When thrown at an airborne enemy or at an enemy hanging on an edge, the target is [[meteor smash]]ed. Having multiple Pitfall items and planting them in the exact same spot can cause more damage than usual.
 
In ''Ultimate'', Pitfalls will not bury downed characters (including if [[Olimar]] lands on one after [[End of Day|his Final Smash]]), but the audience may still cheer as usual.

Pitfall's made their first appearance in ''[[Animal Crossing]]'' and later appeared in ''[[Animal Crossing: Wild World]]''. In both ''Animal Crossing'' and ''Wild World'', Pitfalls are somewhat rare items that can be found around town. Pitfalls are used to pull "pranks" on other townsfolk by burying it and waiting for the animal to walk by. When the animal walks over it, he or she falls and gets temporarily stuck in that spot. The player could also fall into his or her own Pitfall. In ''Brawl'', the Pitfall can be picked up and thrown at either an opponent or at the ground. If the player throws it at an opponent, the person becomes stuck temporarily and is unable to move. When a Pitfall is thrown at the ground, a person can become stuck by moving over it.

==Trophy Description==
''A tricky little item you can bury. Any player who passes over it will drop into a hole. If you land in a pitfall, move the Control Stick quickly back and forth to escape, because until you do, you're completely defenseless. In Animal Crossing, this item also dropped passersby into holes. It was a thrill to bury one and wait for a visiting pal to stumble across it.''
==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*If Wario strikes a buried Pitfall while riding on his Wario Bike, he will be sent flying for an instant KO. This can be avoided by wheelying and taunting.
*In ''Brawl'', if {{SSBB|Wario}} strikes a buried Pitfall while riding on his [[Wario Bike]] (and is not wheelieing or taunting), he will be sent flying for a near certain [[KO]]. This is due to how Wario is considered grounded despite being unable to be buried or plunged, and so he takes the full effect of the planted Pitfall's fixed knockback value of a ludicrous 300 (designed for a long bury time). This knockback value is also why the crowd cheers when someone enters a Pitfall.
 
**Likely in order to prevent this scenario in ''Ultimate'', the Bury Immunity support [[Spirit]] skill will completely negate damage and knockback from pitfall seeds, while with all other sources of burying, the burying attacks will simply deal the knockback they are programmed with rather than burying the opponent.
