Dark Cannon

Ads keep the MarioWiki independent and free :)

The trophy of the Dark Cannon. Dark Cannons are a type of black gun in the Subspace Emissary of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Bowser, Wario, and Ganondorf each have their own Dark Cannons that they use. The Dark Cannons shoot out arrows that turn characters into trophies. They are very large and take two hands to hold — they also take some time to charge up. They also feature a target that helps the one who uses it to aim at the one they want to shoot. The players never get to use a Dark Cannon, as it is only ever seen in possession of the villains of the Subspace Emissary. History Super Smash Bros. Brawl The Subspace Emissary Depending on which princess Kirby saved at the beginning of the Subspace Emissary story, the false form of Princess Peach will attempt to shoot Mario and Pit if she's is saved, or the false form of Zelda will shoot Link and Yoshi if she's is saved; however, the other team (Pit if Zelda is saved, Link if Peach is saved) will destroy the cannon before it completely fires. The Dark Cannon blows up, starting a battle between the fake Peach/Zelda (who attempted to fire the cannon) and the team that destroyed it. Bowser's Dark Cannon is destroyed; after shooting Diddy Kong, he attempts to shoot Fox, then Falco comes in and destroys the Dark Cannon with his blasters. Wario uses his own Dark Cannon to turn Ness into a trophy; however, he is not seen with it afterward. Much later, when almost all characters go to Subspace, Ganondorf uses the last Dark Cannon available to shoot Bowser. He then kicks Bowser away. Usage Characters shot by Dark Cannons Princess Peach (by Wario/Bowser) Princess Zelda (by Wario/Bowser) Ness (by Wario for saving Lucas) Donkey Kong (by Bowser) Diddy Kong (by Bowser) Bowser (by Ganondorf) Characters found with Dark Cannons Wario used it to shoot Princess Peach/Zelda, and then Ness later on in the story. The false form of Princess Peach/Princess Zelda attempted to shoot Mario and Pit or Link and Yoshi. Bowser used it to shoot Donkey Kong, Princess Zelda/Peach and Diddy Kong, but failed to shoot Diddy Kong that time, but then succeeded to shoot Diddy Kong later on in the story. Ganondorf used it to shoot Bowser aproximently a few inches away behind him in the Subspace Realm. Characters who destroyed Dark Cannons Link/Pit destroyed the Dark Cannon held by false forms of Princess Peach/Zelda (as the false Peach/Zelda attempted to shoot Pit/Link and Mario/Yoshi). Falco comes to the rescue of Diddy Kong by jumping out of his Arwing and destroying Bowser's Dark Cannon with his blasters. Trophy Info Name Image Game Description Dark Cannon Wii Super Smash Bros. Brawl In this world, those who fall in battle return to their forms as trophies. This Dark Cannon is powerful enough to turn a fighter back into a trophy with a single shot. Originally created by the Subspace Army, they were then given to Bowser and Wario for the purpose of collecting fighters who exist in this world. [Edit] Super Smash Bros.
