The '''Star Rod''' is an [[Items|item]] from the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] that originates from the [[:Category:Kirby Series|''Kirby'' series]]. It has appeared in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as an attack item. It sends out stars at other [[player]]s to hurt them. Additionally, contact with the Star Rod itself during a swing can cause damage. The Star Rod can only shoot twenty stars, but can be used indefinitely as a battering item. The Star Rod is most effective when used by [[Sheik]], who shoots two stars one after another, or [[Captain Falcon]], who shoots one, then four stars at once.
The '''Star Rod''', also referred to as the '''Star Wand'''<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/19991127081403/http://www.smashbros.com/enter.html|title=''Super Smash Bros.'' website|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=September 19, 2024}}</ref> or '''Wand''',<ref>{{cite|publisher=EMAP|language=en-gb|date=March 1999|title=''Official UK Nintendo Magazine'' Issue 78|page=11}}</ref> is an item from the ''{{iw|wikirby|Kirby (series)|Kirby}}'' series. It has appeared in ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' a few times: In [[Super Mario-kun Volume 7|volume 7]], the Star Rod is one of the items stolen by the [[collector]], and in [[Super Mario-kun Volume 9|volume 9]], a Star Rod is used by Mario to defeat [[No.48]]; he created it earlier on by combining a [[Super Star]] with a rod.
