The Pitfall (おとしあなのタネ, otoshiana no tane, lit:Pitfall seed) is an item that appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It hails from the Animal Crossing series. When thrown, the Pitfall bounces off walls until it touches the ground, which it then embeds itself into with no trace. The next enemy to walk onto its location gets driven into the ground; this causes them to be buried if on a hard platform, though if they are on a pass-through platform they will go clean through it and continue downwards. This also happens when the item is thrown at a grounded enemy. This can be used to score easy KOs on custom stages made by the Stage Builder that have pass-through platforms as their base. When thrown at an airborne enemy, the target is Meteor Smashed. Buried Pitfalls disappear with a puff of smoke after a long time, if no one goes onto it.
