As we all know, Diddy is easily one of Robin's worst matchups, if not the worst, so it might help a bit to lab some of Robin's options when she manages to catch his banana.

Robin can in fact copy Mega Man's schtick of footstool > Z drop banana > ???, but unlike Mega Man she can only land a standing grab and jab off of it (that I've tested). At least she has a confirm into Checkmate off of this tactic.

Glide toss > F-smash is also guaranteed. There's also glide toss > grab if the opponent shields the banana, although I haven't been able to test that yet.

Oh yeah, something I was thinking, are there other things that could possibly be replicated by Robin with a banana? The OP mentions stuff like footstool->z-drop->grab/smash, and tossed banana->smash/grab, but that's also all I've ever been aware of for banana follow-ups, regardless of character.

What other things does Diddy do with a banana (or MegaMan with a Metal Blade)?
