Daisy (JSSB)

Daisy is a playable character in Jake's Super Smash Bros., hailing from the Super Mario universe. Daisy was first introduced in the GameBoy title Super Mario Land, where she took Peach's place as the damsel in distress, and the princess of the kingdom in which the game was set (Sarasaland). Daisy has since made various appearances in the Super Mario spin-off titles, from which her movesets draw inspiration from, and has since been shown to be both a good friend of Peach's and the love interest of Luigi.
Daisy's voice actress from her Super Mario appearances, Deanna Mustard, reprises her role in Super Smash Bros..
==Movesets==
===Origins===
The Party Block first originated in Mario Party where it was used to decide how many spaces the character who hit it would move. The various effects that come from the block all originate from the Super Mario series as a whole:
*When a 1 is hit, Daisy kicks the party block at the opponent, as if kicking a soccer ball in Super Mario Strikers.
*When a 2 is hit, Daisy bumps the party block in an upwards arc, similar to how she does in Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games's volleyball segments.
*When a 3 is hit, a banana peel flies out of the party block, referencing the Mario Kart series.
*When a 4 is hit, a Nyololin will breathe fire from the top of the block. Nyololins first appeared in Super Mario Land, alongside Daisy.
*When a 5 is hit, a random item will be dropped from the party block. Assist Trophies, Smash Balls or any container can not spawn, however.
*When a 6 is hit, a barrage of hammers, similar to the ones thrown by a Hammer Bro. will fly out of the block at random angles. Hammer Bro., and the hammers that appear from the block, first appeared in Super Mario Bros..
*When a 7 is hit, Daisy throws the party block away as it becomes electrified, bouncing along the ground and damaging opponents when hit. Before it disappears, an Amp will appear out of the top of the party block with a smile. Amps first appeared in Super Mario 64.
*When an 8 is hit, a Bob-Omb flies out of the party block. Bob-Omb first appeared in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic.
*When a 9 is hit, an Albatoss flies out of the party block and both deals damage when touched and will randomly drop the Bob-Omb it carries. Albatoss first appeared in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic.
*When a 10 is hit, a Thwomp crashes down from the sky in front of her, dealing massive damage and burying those hit. Thwomp first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3.
Flower Ball is based on Daisy's from Mario Superstar Baseball. It acts in almost the same way.
In Mario Strikers Charged, every captain was capable of using a Super Ability move to attack the other team. Daisy's was known as Crystal Smash!, as she would summon six large crystals in a circular shape around her.
Flowerbed Return is Daisy's defensive power shot in Mario Power Tennis. In the game, she would use it to break her fall as she dived for the ball, causing it to bounce along the ground. While it acts differently in Super Smash Bros., the flowerbed takes a similar appearance to that in Mario Super Sluggers.
Wonder Flower is based on Daisy's from Mario Power Tennis. It acted similar in that it was Daisy's offensive power shot, though would not create a gust of wind and instead be used to hit the tennis ball at the opponent(s).
Daisy first debuted into the Mario Kart series as Princess Peach's partner in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and went on to become a recurring playable character, appearing later in Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8. In her second Mario Kart appearance, Motorbikes were added as vehicle options. The Motorbike she uses in the attack is similar to the Mach Bike, and retains her insignia and colour palette. Mario Kart 7 would later introduce flying and underwater segments, with the former attaching a Glider to the back of the kart. The glider resembles the Super Glider from Mario Kart 7, and too retains the colour scheme and insignia representing Daisy.
In Super Mario Strikers, prior to the debut of the Super Abilities in its sequel, every character had a unique Super Strike they could use to kick the ball. Daisy's was known as the Torpedo Strike, as she would dive at the ball at a speed rivalling that of a torpedo exiting its cannon. The move looks and acts very similar in Super Smash Bros..
Mario Superstar Baseball introduced six minigames, each corresponding to one of the stadiums playable within Exhibition Mode. Mario Stadium's was known as Bob-Omb Derby, as players would have to hit Bob-Ombs into the sky to create fireworks, with different variations being selected via a slot machine. It later returned in Mario Super Sluggers. The Bob-Omb she hits is the "Big Bob-Omb" from the minigame, which was styled to resemble the character of the same name from Super Mario 64.
