Crate

A Crate is an item container featured in the Super Smash Bros. series. Like all other containers, the Crate must be broken before the items inside can be used in battle. To break the carrier, the wooden Crate could either be picked up and tossed in the air, or be attacked repeatedly on the ground. Crates could also be thrown at opponents, although it was difficult to hit other fighters, as throwing the cumbersome container took a long amount of time. Sometimes, Crates would explode under enough stress, damaging all nearby fighters. In the original Super Smash Bros., the Crate held one to three items, and was also extremely heavy. In fact, only Donkey Kong could lift up the Crate and walk around with it; all the other fighters could only pick up the container and toss it from a stationary position.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the Crate would usually reveal much more than three items when broken. Again, the Crate was very heavy, although all fighters could pick up the container and walk with it (albeit most could only walk very slowly because of the container's weight). Only very strong fighters, such as Donkey Kong and Bowser, could walk at a relatively normal speed with a Crate in hand.

Trophy Information
''A Crate will release lots of items when it's broken open. It's very heavy, so unless your character is strong, you’ll walk slowly while under its burden. You can throw Crates up, down, left or right, but it's hard to hit opponents because the throwing process takes time. Every now and then, a Crate will explode under duress.''
