| '''Simon Belmont''' is a protagonist vampire hunter from Konami's ''{{wp|Castlevania}}'' video game series, debuting in the very first entry to the series,
| |
| ''{{wp|Castlevania (1986 video game)|Castlevania}}''. He crosses over with characters from the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]] in episodes of ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' and again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. His descendant, [[Richter Belmont]], also appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as an Echo Fighter of Simon.

| Simon Belmont is a recurring character in the television series ''Captain N: The Game Master''. In the series, he resides in [[Videoland]] (specifically the location Castlevania), and is a member of the N Team. In the pilot episode, "Kevin in Videoland", Simon helps the other heroes rescue Princess Lana, and they then battle [[Mother Brain]] and her allies throughout the show. A recurring gag in the series involved him frequently checking himself on a handheld mirror, and admiring himself. {{wp|Andrew Kavadas}} portrayed him in the series.

| |
| Simon makes his ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' debut in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as a third-party playable character, alongside fellow Konami characters [[Solid Snake]] and Richter Belmont. He was announced to be playable in the game during the August 2018 ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' Direct, alongside fellow newcomers Richter, [[Chrom]], [[Dark Samus]], and [[King K. Rool]].
| |
| | |
| Simon's various attacks involve him using his "Vampire Killer" whip. His special attacks are Axe, an axe that is a powerful projectile; Holy Water, a magical, multi-hitting projectile dealing flame damage; Cross, a projectile with boomerang-esque properties; and Uppercut, a powerful uppercut that functions as Simon's recovery move. His Final Smash, Grand Cross, involves trapping players in a coffin and destroying it. Simon's whip is long-ranged, being effective to use from far distances. Simon's forward, back, and up aerials also function as tether recoveries, making them useful for recovering when close to an edge.
| |
| | |
| {{wp|Keith Silverstein}}, Simon's English voice actor in ''{{wp|Castlevania: Judgment}}'' reprises his role as Simon. {{wp|Hideo Ishikawa}}, who voiced Simon in ''DreamMix TV World Fighters'', also reprises the role in the Japanese version.
| |
| | |
| In his debut trailer, he arrives at [[Dracula's Castle]] and eliminates Death shortly after the latter killed [[Luigi]]. He later confronts [[Dracula]] himself but is nearly defeated, only to be saved by his descendant Richter.<ref> Nintendo (August 8, 2018).

| | |
| Similar to [[King Dedede]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and [[Lucina]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]] / [[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', Simon's name is announced differently in the Japanese version to reflect the pronunciation in that language. This trait is also shared with Richter and King K. Rool.
| |
| | |
| In the Adventure mode, Simon is seen standing near a cliff when he and the other fighters oppose [[Galeem]] for the first time. Although Simon is not shown to be hit by Galeem's beams directly, he, like every fighter except [[Kirby]], is imprisoned in the World of Light, where a Galeem-serving puppet fighter of him is created. Simon is later freed after his puppet fighter is defeated, and he subsequently joins Kirby's team against Galeem and later [[Dharkon]].
| |
| | |
| Simon is a heavy fighter, being heavier than Snake, [[R.O.B.]], and [[Banjo]] & [[Kazooie]] but lighter than [[Samus Aran|Samus]], [[Bowser Jr.]] (and the [[Koopalings]]), Dark Samus, and [[Terry Bogard|Terry]], while having the same weight as [[Wario]], [[Ike]], [[Ridley]], and Richter.

| ====Palutena's Guidance====
| |
| *'''Pit''': Whoa! It's Simon Belmont!
| |
| *'''Palutena''': Oh, do you know him?
| |
| *'''Pit''': Yeah, we hit the scene around the same time.
| |
| *'''Palutena''': The legacy of the vampire-hunting Belmont clan is very interesting.
| |
| *'''Pit''': How long have they been hunting vampires?
| |
| *'''Palutena''': Leon Belmont's first vampire encounter was in 1094 AD. The last known heir, Julius Belmont, defeated Dracula in 1999.
| |
| *'''Pit''': So... Carry the one... A thousand years?!
| |
| *'''Palutena''': Other clans appeared and parallel worlds were created. The fate of the Belmont clan has been split in many ways. The most iconic symbol of House Belmont is their legendary whip, the Vampire Killer.
| |
| *'''Viridi''': A fighter that uses a whip? You don't see that every day.
| |
| *'''Palutena''': It's a magical whip that only the Belmont bloodline can wield. An irreplaceable weapon passed down for generations.
| |
| *'''Viridi''': I wonder how many monsters and demons it's vanquished? It must smell TERRIBLE!
| |
| *'''Palutena''': Getting back to the point, be careful of Simon's long-range attacks. The weapons he uses may seem simple, but they don't pull any punches.
