Pac-Man leaps up into the air on a trampoline that remains and can be bounced on two more times afterward, giving players who bounce on it more height with each bounce before it disappears the next time it is touched. The trampoline changes colors each time it is bounced on, going from blue to yellow to red to indicate how many times the player can bounce on it. After Pac-Man bounces he is turned into his classic form and damages any nearby opponents. The trampoline originates from the [[Bandai Namco Entertainment|Namco]] arcade game ''{{wp|Mappy}}'', which work in the same way as in this game. | ||
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the first custom variant for this move is '''Power Pac-Jump''', which gives Pac-Man one single, higher bounce before the trampoline disappears; Pac-Man himself also deals multiple hits. The second is '''Meteor Trampoline''', which decreases the amount of height Pac-Man is given for each jump, the latter two actually decreasing from the first, and Pac-Man deals less damage on contact, but when the trampoline is red it [[smashwiki:meteor smash|meteor smash]]es any player that touches it, or buries them if the move is used on the ground. | In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the first custom variant for this move is '''Power Pac-Jump''', which gives Pac-Man one single, higher bounce before the trampoline disappears; Pac-Man himself also deals multiple hits.
