Cloaking Device

A Cloaking Device is an item in the game Perfect Dark. It is also used as a helpful item in Super Smash Bros. Melee. If a player picks it up, it turns him/her almost completely invisible for a short amount of time, although he/she sometimes flashes back into visibility for a split-second. The player has to be careful because he/she can lose track of his/her own invisible character.

There is also a special Invisible Melee mode, in which all players have on unlimited-time Cloaking Devices, until the end of the match or matches. However, players can take damage while invisible in that game mode.

In the Event Match Slippy's Invention, the player has to defeat Fox McCloud and Falco Lombardi, who both have on permanent Cloaking Devices, but can still be damaged. The Cloaking Device used by the pair was invented by Slippy Toad.

Trivia

 * The Cloaking Device does not appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. However, players can make all fighters invisible if they turn on CLEAR in Special Brawl mode.
 * Though the Cloaking Device originates from Perfect Dark, the trophy states it is not from any game, but is TOP SECRET.
