The down special move, (also commonly referred to as down B in iterations prior to Super Smash Bros. Brawl) is a special move performed by pressing the special move button while holding down on the control stick (or control pad on the Wii Remote). These moves are often gimmick moves, like reflectors or absorbers, or moves with unique properties when used in different ways. For example, Falcon Kick sends Captain Falcon downwards when used in the air, while Meta Knight can teleport and choose to attack if he wishes. They also usually include minimal character movement horizontal or vertically.
List of moves
Reverse down special
In Brawl some characters down special moves can be reversed by pushing the control stick or D-pad in the opposite direction a few frames after inputting the move, there is also no animation for reversing a down special. Unlike other reverse specials a reverse down special has a limited number of characters that can do it and fewer who will gain an advantage from it. The charaters who can perform it are: Bowser, Yoshi, Pit, Ice climbers, R.O.B., Pikachu, Marth, Ike, Ness, Lucas, Fox, Wolf and Mr. Game and Watch. Since only Bowser, R.O.B. and Yoshi have a use for a reverse down special on the ground, some characters can use it in the air to gain a boost in the opposite direction and suprise opponents like Marth, Ike and Pikachu. The boost is most likely caused from a reverse down special having no animation and swaps the momentum around with the character.
