Red Shell.

Not to be confused with the Red Koopa Shell.

The Red Shell is a throwing item that rolls in random directions after thrown, it will actively hunt out the nearest player, even the character that originally used it. Not that in Super Smash Bros., both the Red and Green Shell types are categorized together and called just "Shell".

• It will slide around when jumping on or attacking it.
• Direct smash throw does 17% damage.
• Tap A throw does 14% damage.
• While rolling does 9% damage.
• When dropped does 15% damage.
• If shining it with Fox/Falco, or using Confusion with Mewtwo, damage and duration will increase. The shell can only be deflected three times before the character experiences a "shield break" (despite the fact that no shield was used) and they become stunned and immobile.
• Hits even while ledge hanging.
