The Poltergust G-00 is the newset Poltergust model used by Luigi in Luigi's Mansion 3 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

History

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

The Poltergust G-00 was teased in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's August 8 Nintendo Direct, specifically in Simon Belmont's reveal trailer, where Luigi was shown using its Strobulb, as well as its function to fire toilet plungers. Luigi used the plungers in an attempt to ward off a mummy horde in Dracula Castle, but his efforts failed.

Later in the November 1 Nintendo Direct, the Poltergust G-00 was officially confirmed as a moveset element for Luigi, replacing his previous grab and throws. For his grab, Luigi extends an arm from the Poltergust G-00; as a result, it has much more range than Luigi's previous grab, and it also grants him a grab aerial. Luigi's up throw directly involves the Poltergust G-00, as he uses it to eject opponents at a high upward distance. Lastly, his Final Smash now utilizes the Poltergust G-00, though to an unknown extent.

Luigi's Mansion 3

The Poltergust G-00 will debut in a native Mario game with its appearance in Luigi's Mansion 3, being used by Luigi. The Poltergust G-00 uses the Strobulb equipment from previous Luigi's Mansion games, while having the aforementioned ability to fire toilet plungers. The Poltergust G-00 comes with jet propulsion, allowing Luigi to jump with it.
