Tabuu is a character introduced in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as the final boss of the game's Subspace Emissary mode.

Background[]

Little is known about the origins of Tabuu. What is known is that he is the embodiment of Subspace, and that he wanted to cut the World of Trophies into pieces as trophies of his own in Subspace. Since he cannot physically leave Subspace himself, Tabuu enlisted aid from numerous villains, as well as forcing a civilization of R.O.B.s to work for him under threat of annihilation. While he came close to achieving his goals, thanks to a few reawakened trophies reviving the fighters, he was ultimately defeated and he nor Subspace have been seen from since.

Hax: Possession, Life Manipulation and Petrification, Size Manipulation, Explosion Manipulation, Vibration Manipulation, Duplication and Projection, Teleportation, Force Field Creation, Shape-Shifting
