Item Info[]
Pitfalls are a tricky little item that Villagers can bury in the ground. When placed, a small crack is seen in the ground making it indistinguishable to any other spot where an item has been buried. If a Villager happens to walk over the spot where a Pitfall has been buried, the ground will fall away below them as a pit opens up, dropping the Villager below.
Item Usage[]
When the Pitfall item is picked up and thrown it can do a couple of different things depending on what it hit. If the Pitfall hits an aerial opponent they will be sent plummeting straight down as if they had been meteor smashed. If the Pitfall hits the stage it will bury itself into the platform and be hidden as a trap. The next fighter who crosses over the Pitfall trap will fall into the trap. If the Pitfall trap was on a solid platform then the fighter will be grounded into the platform and trapped briefly leaving them open to being attacked. However if the platform the Pitfall trap was on was a fall-through platform, the fighter will instead be spiked downwards through the platform and be sent plummeting below. If the Pitfall instead hit a fighter directly while they are standing on the ground, they will be affected by the Pitfall as if they had just walked over a Pitfall trap normally.
