'''Down throw''' is a [[throw]] performed by pressing down on the control stick after having [[grab|grabbed]] the enemy. These throws are typically used as [[combo]]-starters, and a few, like [[Sheik]]'s and [[King Dedede]]'s, can be used to [[chain grab|chain throw]]. Down throw chain throws typically work only on [[floaty]] characters, who are generally more difficult to combo than [[fast-faller]]s; thus, they are highly valuable to any character. Other notable down throws include [[Captain Falcon]]'s and [[Ganondorf]]'s. [[Toon Link]]'s down throw can set up for a barrage of b-airs followed by a d-air meteor smash.

Trivia

In Melee, Bowser's down throw does no damage to Jigglypuff, but this has changed in Brawl.
