Paralyzer

Paralyzer is 's neutral special move in Super Smash Flash 2.

Overview
When performed, Zero Suit Samus kneels down and takes out her Paralyzer gun and then shoots a short ranged laser, which paralyzes opponents and deals a low amount of damage. This move can be charged, dealing 6% damage uncharged and 9% charged, with noticeably more paralysis and less knockback with a greater charge. The charged shot is also bigger and travels a longer distance.

Origin
The Paralyzer first appeared as Zero Suit Samus' only weapon in Metroid: Zero Mission, where it was quite weak. Her role in this game is a stealth role; even with the Paralyzer charged, the best she can do with her "rather useless emergency pistol" is paralyze Space Pirates for a few seconds. The Paralyzer is, however, able to destroy Bomb Blocks, blocks that are normally vulnerable to Morph Ball bombs only.

The name "Paralyzer" has no origin in the  series; the weapon is not referred to as a "Paralyzer" until Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and it is not referred to like this in an official Metroid game until Metroid: Other M.

Trivia

 * The Paralyzer gun is also used in Zero Suit Samus's down smash and forward throw. However, only her down smash deals paralysis.
