In all installments of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], the Star Rod appears as an item which fighters can use in battle. Here, it can be used either to hit the opponent directly, or to shoot stars at the opponent by using a side tilt or side smash. In contrast to the Star Rod's infinite power in the ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' games, it only has enough power in it to fire 16 stars here. After all 16 stars are used, the item can still be swung at close quarters to strike opponents, and will immediately vanish when it hits the ground after being tossed or dropped. Also, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' , when the item is used by [[smashwiki:Captain Falcon|Captain Falcon]], the Star Rod releases five stars at once, and if used by [[smashwiki:Sheik|Sheik]], it fires two.
