Villager burying Mario and Bowser in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
There are a few attacks in the Super Smash Bros. series that cause the bury effect. Characters hit by such attacks will be embedded in the ground. If the target is not on the ground, they will take regular knockback. If the target is already buried, the length of the effect will not be increased or reset.

Plunge
The plunge effect is similar to the bury effect, and in most situations, it acts exactly the same. The main difference is that, if the target is standing on a soft platform, they will be hit down through the platform after the "being buried" animation has finished instead of remaining buried.
The only attack to use the plunge effect is that of the Pitfall.

Trivia
- Lucas's down throw is the only attack that shows opponents being buried without actually being buried. It uses a unique animation, with the opponent stuck in the ground head first and their legs sticking up.
