Razor Leaf is an attack originating from the Pokémon series. It appears in all three Super Smash Bros. titles. Venusaur uses this move to attack characters in the Saffron City stage of the original game. In both Melee and Brawl, it is used by Chikorita when released from a Poké Ball. This move also appears in Brawl as Ivysaur's Side Special Move, though it is functionally different; Ivysaur shoots a large, single leaf, whereas Chikorita shoots a barrage of small leaves. However, both versions knock opponents back significantly for a ranged move.
As Ivysaur's Special Move in Brawl
With this move, Ivysaur sends a leaf as a ranged attack, making between 5%-8% of damage. It may curve mildly in a random direction at the end of its reach. Very good for canceling others' attacks. This strategy is often used when recovering back on to the stage with Ivysaur, as its Up Special Move is only a tether recovery (see Vine Whip) and a projectile must be used to clear edge-guarders and edge-hogs. Nonetheless, despite the leaf's long range, it will disappear after a short while and has a slight arc, so Ivysaur players must be in a decent position to the opponent before unleashing the move.
