Main Details
Ness is a submission created by DK3 and was uploaded to the original site on April 2, 2009 and reuploaded to the site after the revision on July 19, 2013. A few of his attacks have changed from the official Smash Bros. games, such as his Down Special and his new Rapid Combo attack, the main difference is his three new Special Moves and new Final Smash. These better represent his actual abilities from the EarthBound game rather than borrowing attacks from his party members, such as using Paula's PK Fire or Poo's PK Starstorm.

Character Details
Ness is the thirteen year-old protagonist of EarthBound for the Super Nintendo. He enjoys baseball so much to the point that a majority of his equippable weapons and armor are different baseball bats and baseball caps. In EarthBound, his story begins when a meteorite crashes to Earth on the summit of a hill right outside his home on the outskirts of Onett. After this event, a series of seemingly random events occur throughout his adventure across Eagleland as he meets up with and befriends a cast of three additional party members, which include Paula Polestar, Jeff Andonuts, and Prince Poo.

| Special Moves | ||
| Standard Special | PK Flash | |
| Ness crouches while holding his fingers to his temples as a bright green and yellow flash of light floats into the air from Ness's mind. Upon releasing the Special Move button the flash of light will explode in a varied burst of colors. The size and power of the explosion is determined by how long the attack was charged for, also it's trajectory can be influenced by the Control Stick. If Ness is attacked while controlling a flash of light he'll lose his train of thought and the light will burn out. | ||
| Side Special | PK Hypnosis | |
| Ness points both hands forward quickly sending a hypnotic beam of light from his finger tips. If an opponent comes into contact with this bolt of energy, they'll be dazed for a few seconds. Any attacks will wake them up afterwards. This attack counts as a projectile and can be reflected as such. | ||
| Up Special | PK Teleport | |
| Ness glows yellow before vanishing and reappearing a few meters away in the desired direction determined by the Control Stick. If an opponent is touching Ness when he disappears or reappears they'll take damage and a large knockback. | ||
| Down Special | PSI Shield | |
| Ness surrounds himself in a shield of yellow and blue light and electricity. Any projectile attacks are instantly absorbed by this shield and used in Ness's favor to heal himself for equal the percent damage the attack would have caused. This shield does not protect Ness from physical attacks though. | ||
| Final Smash | PK Rockin' | |
| Ness glows in various colors as he turns the background into various patterns seen from battles in Mother 2 / EarthBound. Every opponent then takes a random amount of damage between 25% and 65% and also suffers a random knockback varying between mild and huge. | ||
