A Tether Recovery is a type of recovery move where the player latches onto the side of an arena with an extendable item. If there is a nearby ledge when this is used, the tether will automatically snap to it. Pressing A after grappling a ledge will pull the character to that ledge. If the ledge is currently occupied when a tether recovery is used, it will fail to grab. If a player ledge-drops after tethering, they can retether, but only two more times. If a player attempts to tether three or more times consecutively without returning to the platform, the tether will stop connecting. A similar move in SSBM (called the Wall-grapple) existed for Link, Young Link and Samus; however, the difference between the two moves is that a tether seeks out a ledge, while wall-grapples activate when they touch any wall.
