The Shield-stop is a technique in every Super Smash Bros. game thus far, which lets a character slide while using a shield. This is executed by simply pressing the shield button during a dash.
This can lead into various other actions, such as using a regular grab (rather than dash grabs, which are poor compared to other grabs) out of a dash, or simply protecting the character as they move forward. As with other slide techniques, the overall movement gained by shield-stopping is dependent on one's traction.
Shield-stopping is not the same as a dashing shield. Dashing shields involve tapping the shield button and releasing it to gain distance, whilst the shield-stop is used as a regular shield out of dash.
