The Upperdash Arm (豪腕ダッシュアッパー, Strong Arm Dash Upper) is a weapon from Kid Icarus Uprising, acting as Pit's new side special move in Super Smash Bros. 4.

Overview

The move involves Pit dashing forward, and then uppercutting any opponent he comes across with the Upperdash Arm, similarly to Raptor Boost. The move has armor during the uppercut, and can also deflect projectiles near the end of the move.

Dark Pit has a variant of this move, where he uses the Electroshock Arm instead.

Customization

Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the known variations:

  1. Interception Arm: A counterattack that allows Pit to uppercut enemies if they try to hit him. It will not let him dash.
  2. Quickdash Arm: A faster, longer dash that continues after the uppercut, making it hard to control.

Description from the 3DS version's foldout

"Dash forward and uppercut opponents."

Origin

Arms are one of the weapon classes in Uprising. Weapons in this class boast power in both melee and ranged combat, but are short-ranged and have a slow attack speed (in addition to considerably slowing Pit's running speed). The Upperdash Arm has weak normal attacks but strong melee dash attacks. The back-dash charged shot from this weapon is capable of sending foes airborne. Meanwhile, the Electroshock Arm inflicts paralysis, and has expanding charged shots.
