Dr. Mario's down aerial buries Yoshi in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Buried is a state that characters enter under various circumstances, including being hit by Donkey Kong's Headbutt move and being affected by a Pitfall. In this state, controls are disabled until it wears off (this point being where the once buried character will get some invincibility frames). Like other status effects, button mashing reduces its duration.

Characters can only be buried if already standing on the ground; moves that bury will usually Meteor Smash airborne opponents. Burying someone is a great way to set up a smash attack or other powerful move.

In SSBM, a buried character cannot be "unburied" by getting hit; they will remain stuck in the ground until the effect wears off. However, in SSBB, a character that takes a hard enough hit will be relieved of the bury effect and sent flying.
