The '''neutral special move''' (officially referred to as '''standard special move''' prior to ''[[Ultimate]]'', also known as '''neutral B''', '''standard B''', '''B move''', or simply '''B''') is a [[special attack]] performed by pressing the special move button without holding a direction on the control stick. As the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' lacks [[side special move]]s, neutral specials can also be used if the stick is tilted sideways; with the introduction of side specials in ''[[Melee]]'', some characters' neutral specials were changed to be side specials, with a new neutral special taking their place.

The majority of neutral specials are either a [[projectile]] or a strong single-hit attack that might be [[charge]]able (and sometimes both). If a character has a single projectile, it is most likely to be their neutral special. Neutral specials also tend to not move the character, though a few force the character to move or give them the option to.

[[File:shadowballdc.gif|thumb|{{SSBM|Mewtwo}} reversing its direction in midair using [[Shadow Ball]] in ''Melee''.]]
A '''reverse neutral special move''' allows a character in midair to use a neutral special in the opposite direction that they're facing. This requires a different method than simply holding backward and pressing the special button, as this would activate the [[side special move]]. Instead, one must tap the control stick in that direction and allow it to return to its neutral position before pressing the special button.

|[[Joker]]||[[Gun / Gun Special]]||Joker will either fire once or multiple times, depending on if the button is held down. In the air, Joker can either fire around him or downwards, depending on the input. When Arsène is summoned, Joker uses Gun Special instead, which will make Joker fire more bullets in total.

The move can be charged to deal more damage and gain additional range, and it can also be reversed if the opposite direction Mythra is facing is held before the attack is unleashed.

|[[Sora]]||[[Magic]]||Sora casts one of three different Magic spells in a set order. First is Firaga, wherein he fires a medium-range fireball from his Keyblade; repeatedly pressing the special move button will make Sora continuously use the attack. Thundaga has Sora lift his Keyblade upwards to summon three continuous clouds that rain down thunderbolts; when used in mid-air, its range is decreased. Blizzaga has Sora fire out a short-range icy blast from his Keyblade that instantly freezes the opponent if close, similar to Blizzard. All three spells can be deflected, absorbed, or picked up by Villager and Isabelle when using Pocket.
