Special Flag
From Mariopedia, a wiki on Mario, Yoshi, Wario, Donkey Kong, Super Smash Bros., and more!
The Special Flag is a recurring item throughout several Namco games, originally from Rally X. It appears in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U as an item. When used, the player holding it will hold it up in the air and become immobile. If used successfully and held in the air for three seconds without being hit, the Special Flag will grant the holding player either an extra K.O. in a timed match or an additional stock in a stock match. When the player is hit while he is holding the Special Flag, he or she will automatically drop it. Any neutral attack will activate the holding animation, except a dash neutral.

This item appeared as a hidden object in the 1983 arcade game Xevious. Picking one up would give you an extra life. In Smash Bros., it shows up for you to grab during battles. It may seem like nothing is happening, but holding it high will earn you an extra stock in a stock battle or a KO in a timed battle. |
