Ray Gun

Ray Guns are items seen in the Super Smash Bros. series.

In the original Super Smash Bros., the Ray Gun takes the appearance of a small, gray gun capable of shooting lasers. The lasers travel quickly, with an audible bang, and deal low damage; however it is very easy to juggle opponents with timed blasts from the gun. It has enough power for sixteen shots, after which the Ray Gun becomes almost useless, only able to cause damage when thrown. The Ray Gun returned in Super Smash Bros. Melee, with its appearance upgraded to a more futuristic look. The lasers travel more slowly, though they do the same amount of damage. However, this makes juggling opponents considerably harder in Melee than in the game's predecessor. There are still sixteen shots worth of ammo in a Ray Gun. Also, the loud bang accompanying the shots is replaced by a more laser-like sound.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Ray Guns remained largely unchanged from their Melee incarnation, aside from their appearance, which is much more highly detailed. They still fire their characteristic green shots and still have sixteen shots of ammo.

Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Melee
''The Ray Gun is toy-like in appearance and shoots short, fat, highly reflective beams of green light. The gun is fairly weak, but since it fires so fast, it can easily juggle enemies. It contains enough energy for only 16 shots. Try dropping it with a few shots left and watch your foes waste time and energy retrieving it.''

Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Brawl
''A gun that shoots rays of light, as the name suggests. Its fat shape is not very realistic--in fact, it looks more like a toy than anything else. Its beams aren't very strong; they're fast and hard to dodge. In addition, they juggle whomever they hit in midair, making it possible to hit with one beam after another. By the way, it only holds 16 shots. When it's empty, you can throw it.''
