Jess Harnell

**Crash Bandicoot** (クラッシュバンディクート, *Kurasshubandikūto*) is a newcomer in Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch. He is one of the "Sony" representatives added to the game, other than Ratchet & Clank, and Spyro. He was announced fairly later in the game's development along with his Echo, Coco. He is voiced by Jess Harnell in all versions of the game.

Crash is based off of his appearance in the remake collaberation, Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy, which slightly revamped Crash's personality. In turn, Crash takes elements from all of his appearances, having attacks that reference almost every game in his series.

Not much tournament play has been done, therefore Crash doesn't currently have a tournament summary. More info will be stated later.

## Attributes

Being loyal to his home series, Crash Bandicoot has a strange set of stats that make him easy to pick up, but hard to master. Crash is fairly slow in walking speed, but his dash speed is above average. His first jump is fairly short, but his double jump is very high, however, he does have a lack of good air speed, one of his weaknesses. He has fairly heavy weight, and low gravity, causing him to be able to short hop quickly, but not as quick as Fox or Falco.

One of Crash's major strengths is his unpredictability and overall awkwardness in his attacks. Crash has moves and attacks that hit in weird ways, forcing his opponents to intercept or punish in specific ways. He also has many attacks that can combo into each other, and reliable KO moves. Combined with his superb movement, Crash can be able to mess with his opponents and take out stocks quickly and efficiently.

However, Crash suffers from somewhat sluggish movement, and fairly heavy weight, as well as difficulty coming back if he loses momentum mid match.
