Being a thief, he steals items, particularly from [[Toad House]]s, before running away with them in his bag, which he almost always carries with him. This almost always serves as a hindrance, making Nabbit an antagonist, though he also appears as the occasional playable character along with other minor roles. | His English name is a portmanteau of "nab" and "rabbit"; it is also derived from "dagnabbit", a word used to express anger or surprise.

Nabbit | In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], Nabbit mainly appears in the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. After [[Kamek]] changes the stage's layout, he may appear and attempts to catch fighters in his bag. If he does so, he blasts off and takes the fighter with him, knocking them out in the process (unless they get out in time before he crosses the blast zone by button-mashing). Nabbit can also be attacked, grabbed, and is affected by items like a regular fighter. He has knockback akin to playable fighters, and even has the same blast animation when crossing any blast zone (it is colored white, like CPUs). His fall speed is very fast, and can even jump in mid-air like most fighters for recovery. | ||
Nabbit also | Nabbit has two other miscellaneous roles in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. He is one of [[Princess Peach]]'s attempted "kidnappers" in the event match [[smashwiki:Enough with the Kidnapping|Enough with the Kidnapping]]. Despite the theme of the challenge and his role alongside all other participants, Nabbit is the only one who doesn't exclusively target Peach, as his actions can also affect the other two kidnappers, [[Bowser]] or [[Bowser Jr.]] Additionally, Nabbit is a random event in [[smashwiki:Smash Tour|Smash Tour]], moving along the map and picking up any item he comes across, and whoever bumps into Nabbit can retrieve the items he took. | ||
Nabbit appears as a support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' that causes items to gravitate towards the user. It can be summoned using a [[wikibound:Duster|Duster]] core and any support core. Nabbit also reprises his role on the Mushroom Kingdom U stage. | |||

Nabbit appears as a doctor as '''Dr. Nabbit''' in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]''. He was added on April 2, 2020. Dr. Nabbit is available as a special stage reward in [[World 24]]. His skill in Stage Mode is represented by him sprinting to the right with his sack, and it increases the player's score by 3000 points, which will do nothing in Daily Booster or special stages as they do not keep track of score. In Versus Mode, his skill transforms objects, mainly [[virus]]es into [[shell]]s, [[exploder]]s, or rainbow [[capsule]]s, where the amount of transformed objects is two at level 1, four at level 2, six at level 3, eight at level 4 and ten at level 5. The transformed objects are marked with [[Baby Rosalina]]'s emblem despite being a different character. | Nabbit appears as a doctor as '''Dr. Nabbit''' in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]''.

The character [[ | The character [[zeldawiki:Ravio|Ravio]] from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds]]'' has a similar appearance to Nabbit, as pointed out by several fans in the comments of [http://web.archive.org/web/20170207125543/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAABAADMUKlYz1zqxQ a Miiverse post] with an in-development screenshot showing the character. However, [[Satoru Iwata]], during the October 1, 2013 Nintendo Direct, officially dismissed the similarities as an unintentional coincidence. Additionally, Iwata added that the developers work so closely together that it is not surprising that similar designs could manifest in different, unrelated games.<ref>Nintendo (October 1, 2013).
