First off, I would like to say that if this has already been discovered, then don't bash me for it. I tried to look for it in a couple of the stickies and couldn't find it, so hopefully i'm presenting new material to the folks here at Smashboards.

I would also like to say that this combo probably shouldn't be used in tournaments and competitive play, as there are better options and that this combo is situational at best. I think it is just a flashy combo, but if you actually do find uses for it, then it shall be referred to as the j00t combo (For the people that know me irl, this is j00t combo #2). Anyways, on to the combo!

This combo only works on Captain Falcon, from 0% to ~60%. It also works on Fox and Falco, but it is -MUCH- harder to do (probably the same percents you can chainthrow these two characters on). I practiced it on those two for about 30 minutes and I only pulled it off 4 times, the timing has to be absolutely perfect on the space animals.

But anyways, what you do is get Captain Falcon in an u-throw. As he's falling to the ground, shine him when he's close to your head. I'll update this part as soon as I practice it more, I think you have to shine him when he is right above you, literally sitting on your head. If you do it too early then he'll get knocked back too far from you. After the shine, IMMEDIATELY jump-cancel the shine into an upsmash. Fox'll hit him and pop him into the air, where you can start your normal juggling routine.

The reason why this combo is so situational (i'm guessing) is because if the Falcon DIs away, then it ruins the combo. Like I said before, there are better options out of an upthrow than this. It's just flashy and it looked cool the first time I did it.

Well, that's it. Discuss and have fun with it :lick:
