Super Smash Bros.
Super Smash Bros. is the first game in the series. It was released for the Nintendo 64 in 1999.
Kirby's Neutral-B, Inhale, allows him to eat an opponent. He may either swallow the opponent to copy their Neutral Special, or he may spit them out as a projectile. Kirby also inflates for his double jumps, and whenever he eats an object.
Jigglypuff from Pokémon appears as a playable character. It inflates for its double jumps.
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Super Smash Bros. Melee is the second game in the Super Smash Bros. series. It was released for the Nintendo GameCube in 2001.
Yoshi reappears from Super Smash Bros.. His Neutral-B attack is Egg Lay. For this attack, Yoshi eats an opponent, turning them into an egg for a short amount of time. The more damage the opponent has accumulated, the longer they are stuck inside the egg. The opponent may shorten the amount of time spent in the egg by rotating the control stick and button mashing. Unlike in his first appearance, Yoshi visibly bloats up during this move.
Kirby returns in Melee, retaining his previous characteristics.
Jigglypuff returns as a playable character, with its previous characteristics.
