Negative Zone
Negative Zone is Luigi's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is rather a bizarre Final Smash, in which after Luigi uses it, he starts dancing around in a strange way, while Arabian-style music plays. A large greenish circle appears on the stage, which has a fairly large radius. Everything in the circle is altered to look like a inverted image, hence the name. Any opponents caught in the circle can be affected by a variety of effects, such as uncontrollable taunting, sleeping, and even constant tripping. Even airborne opponents are affected by this move, which can easily stop from recovering.
Opponents can escape the circle and possibly avoid the effects after leaving the circle. They are affected while the circle is still on the stage, and will stay affected a little bit after the circle disappears. Luigi is not affected by this move in any way, expect for being slightly slowed down. The effects wear off after a while, after the circle starts to shrink. It is stated in Luigi's Final Smash trophy that Negative Zone is a sorcerer's magic attack that is fueled by his dislike of being in his brother's shadow.
The effects include the following:
- Drastically reduced attack power
- Greater launch distance when hit
- Increased likelihood of slipping
- Steady increase in damage percentage
- Flower growth on head
- Dizziness
- Uncontrollable taunting
- Sudden sleepiness
- Decreased movement speed
- Tumbling midair (the player can't use their midair jump)

Luigi's Final Smash. As exotic music plays, he performs a dance befitting a sorcerous incantation. A barrier envelops him, negatively impacting all in his area. Random effects include getting launched, sleeping, moving in slow motion, tripping, fainting, and losing attack power. This technique is a reflection of the dark side he embraced in his brother's shadow. |
Trivia
- The flower growth on opponent's heads may be a reference to the Floro Sprout, an item that was obtained in Super Paper Mario.
