A pseudo-taunt is an action that is intended to taunt opponents without using one of the taunts already available in the game. Pseudo-taunts often involve actions that look similar to an ordinary taunt; a well-known example is [[King Dedede]]'s crouch, though others include [[Ness]]'s up and down smashes, where he performs yo-yo tricks; [[Bowser Jr.]]'s down tilt, where the Junior Clown Car licks the foe with its tongue; [[Olimar]]'s down tilt, where he appears to be doing "the worm"; [[Charizard]]'s slow-walking animation, dubbed the "Zard Walk" by fans; [[Shulk]] using [[Monado Arts]] while walking, dubbed the "Monado Walk" (which applies to Kirby as well when he copies Shulk's neutral special); many characters' crawling animations (with those of Wario and Zero Suit Samus being the most common); and [[Mr. Game & Watch]]'s up tilt where he waves a "#1" flag. | A pseudo-taunt is an action that is intended to taunt opponents without using one of the taunts already available in the game.

Within [[taunt match]]es, actions that produce loud, irritating, or otherwise repetitive sounds can become pseudo-taunts; examples include crouching as [[Jigglypuff]] and [[Kirby]], [[Daisy]]'s forward smash, [[Ganondorf]]'s up smash prior to ''Ultimate'' (and his forward smash in ''Ultimate''), [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Falcon Punch]], the majority of [[Wario]]'s moves (especially [[Wario Waft]]), [[Shulk]]'s [[Back Slash]], [[Little Mac]]'s neutral attack, [[Olimar]]'s [[Pikmin Order]], and any of [[Inkling]] Boy's tilt attacks, where he can sometimes say "Ngyes!". | Within [[taunt match]]es, actions that produce loud, irritating, or otherwise repetitive sounds can become pseudo-taunts; examples include crouching as [[Jigglypuff]] and [[Kirby]], [[Daisy]]'s forward smash, [[Ganondorf]]'s up smash prior to ''Ultimate'' (and his forward smash in ''Ultimate''), [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Falcon Punch]], the majority of [[Wario]]'s moves (especially [[Wario Waft]]), [[Shulk]]'s [[Back Slash]], [[Little Mac]]'s neutral attack, [[Olimar]]'s [[Pikmin Order]], and any of [[Inkling]] Boy's tilt attacks, where he can sometimes say "Ngyes!". | ||
