Victory Pose

A victory pose is a short (often random) animation that any character does after winning a match while the losers stand in the background, applauding politely. Typically, every character will have three different poses that can be performed at the end of a match by holding down a certain button, if any; some characters have only two different and some characters have a total of four! Also note that in Super Smash Bros., Jigglypuff doesn't clap and instead just moves its head to the right and does nothing else, (But in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, Super Smash Bros. Tourney, and Super Smash Bros. Tourney 2: The New Challengers, it moves its head left and right without stopping) probably because its hands are too short to clap with. Ice Climbers also don't clap and instead cry, referencing the screen seen when failing a mountain in Ice Climber. Wario will cease clapping every few seconds to open his mouth and call out, and Mewtwo just stands with his arms crossed in disappointment. Diddy Kong takes off his cap and looks down at the ground with a confused expression on his face, scratching his head, this pose is a reference to the one he makes in the Donkey Kong Country games after losing in a bonus game room. Characters with no arms, such as Mamoswine, just look down with an angry look. Some characters, such as Dormammu, attack the Results Screen background or the losers, and therefore there will be no clapping if the latter is being attacked. Super Smash Bros. Tourney also introduces hidden victory poses, which are extremely rare victory poses. To get a character to do his/her hidden victory pose, the player must win ten consecutive matches with that character, and there will be a consecutive win counter on the winner's character select panel to make things easer. If the character with a hidden victory pose loses a match, he/she will either clap for the opponent, or, in Tourney 2, do their defeat pose if they lose to the computer player.
