'''Simon Belmont''' is a protagonist vampire hunter from Konami's ''{{wp|Castlevania}}'' video game series, debuting in the very first entry to the series,
''{{wp|Castlevania (1986 video game)|Castlevania}}''. He crosses over with characters from the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]] in episodes of ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' and again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. His descendant, [[Richter Belmont]], also appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as an Echo Fighter of Simon.

Simon Belmont is a recurring character in the television series ''Captain N: The Game Master''. In the series, he resides in [[Videoland]] (specifically the location Castlevania), and is a member of the N Team. In the pilot episode, "Kevin in Videoland", Simon helps the other heroes rescue Princess Lana, and they then battle [[Mother Brain]] and her allies throughout the show. A recurring gag in the series involved him frequently checking himself on a handheld mirror, and admiring himself. {{wp|Andrew Kavadas}} portrayed him in the series.

{{main-external|SmashWiki|Simon (SSBU)}}
Simon makes his ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' debut in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as a third-party character, alongside fellow Konami characters [[Solid Snake]] and Richter Belmont. His various attacks involve him using his "Vampire Killer" whip. Simon's special attacks are Axe, an axe that is a powerful projectile; Holy Water, a magical, multi-hitting projectile dealing flame damage; Cross, a projectile with boomerang-esque properties; and Uppercut, a powerful uppercut that functions as Simon's recovery move. His Final Smash, Grand Cross, involves trapping players in a coffin and destroying it. Simon's whip is long-ranged, being effective to use from far distances. Simon's forward, back, and up aerials also function as tether recoveries, making them useful for recovering when close to an edge.
 
{{wp|Keith Silverstein}}, Simon's English voice actor in ''{{wp|Castlevania: Judgment}}'' reprises his role as Simon. {{wp|Hideo Ishikawa}}, who voiced Simon in ''DreamMix TV World Fighters'', also reprises the role in the Japanese version.
 
In his debut trailer, he arrives at [[Dracula's Castle]] and eliminates Death shortly after the latter killed [[Luigi]]. He later confronts [[Dracula]] himself but is nearly defeated, only to be saved by his descendant Richter.<ref> Nintendo (August 8, 2018).

Similar to [[King Dedede]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and [[Lucina]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', Simon's name is announced differently in the Japanese version to reflect the pronunciation in that language. This trait is also shared with Richter and [[King K. Rool]].
 
In the Adventure mode, Simon is seen standing near a cliff when he and the other fighters oppose [[Galeem]] for the first time. Simon, like every fighter except [[Kirby]], is hit by one of Galeem's beams of light and imprisoned in the World of Light, where a Galeem-serving puppet fighter of him is created. Simon is later freed after his puppet fighter is defeated, and he subsequently joins Kirby's team against Galeem and later [[Dharkon]].
