Beep-boop, fellow R.O.B. mains!
I am Xyloid, long time lurker, and for the first time i found some info that I thought would be valuable to share.
I want to improve the R.O.B. meta, and since I have found nothing on this in the R.O.B. threads, I present to you what I will refer to as the Z-pickup.
I think it is common knowledge thaht any character can catch an item in mid air while pressing the "grab" or "Z" button, but did you know that you could do this whilst the gyro is STILL ON THE GROUND? All you need to do is short hop close to the gyro, and press the "Z" button as soon as the jump animation starts.
You can clearly see me do a Z-pickup at 0:26 of this video:

This lets you pick up the gyro without having to go through an attack of air dodge animation, which means you can throw or Z-drop the gyro immediately after.
More options! Yay!
If this is not an actual find, let me crawl back in shame to my lurking bush.
And a 1337 day to you all, good robot sirs!
