In the Super Smash Bros. series

Jeff launching bottle rockets in Brawl

Starting with Super Smash Bros. Brawl Jeff appears as an Assist Trophy and attacks using Bottle Rockets. The Bottle Rockets in particular are based off of the Big bottle rocket (Pencil Rocket ×5 in Japan), as he launches one large Bottle Rocket and four smaller ones. Occasionally, he will launch another set of Bottle Rockets as well. They are homing rockets that will follow any nearby player, and explode upon collision. The Bottle Rockets retain their design used in the instructions booklet for Mother 2.
