'''Ness''' is a young boy from [[Onett]] and the main protagonist of ''[[wikibound:EarthBound|EarthBound]]'' (''Mother 2: Gyiyg no Gyakushū'' in Japan). Starting off as a normal young boy, Ness ends up on a journey to save the world from [[wikibound:Giygas|Giygas]]'s alien army. He also develops psychic powers, known as [[wikibound:PSI|PSI]], during the course of the game. Ness is often pictured with a baseball bat, which is the first weapon acquired in ''EarthBound''.

Also in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', there are two custom variants of this move available to unlock. The first is '''Rising PK Flash''', which fires a pink ball of light that only rises into the air; it has a larger range but deals less damage, and cannot move as far horizontally. The second variant is '''[[Lucas#PK Freeze|PK Freeze]]''', Lucas's version of this move; it does not deal as much damage, instead freezing opponents, and also detonates when it hits ground. This PK Freeze travels more slowly than Lucas's version, behaving more similarly to Ness's PK Flash, but still moves faster and has further range than PK Flash. The frozen effect is stronger than most freezing attacks, as opponents require more effort to break free out of a sweet-spotted PK Freeze.

In the ''EarthBound'' (''Mother'') series, Ness and Lucas are unable to learn PK Thunder in their respective games; in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' the trophy for Paula, one of the characters who learns PK Thunder, states that she likely taught Ness this and PK Fire, though no explanation is offered for Lucas.

In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', the PSI Magnet's first custom variant is '''PSI Vacuum''' (named '''PSI Vortex''' in the British English version), which does not have health recovery properties but draws in opponents to damage them when the attack is finished. The second variant, '''Forward PSI Magnet''', behaves like Lucas's [[Lucas#PSI Magnet|PSI Magnet]], where the energy field appears in front of Ness and instead of blowing opponents away, damages opponents when Ness finishes the move.

In ''EarthBound'', Ness does not actually learn PK Starstorm. According to his Final Smash trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', it is suggested that he was instead taught by Poo, who learns the move in the original game.
