Darkest Lariat | Darkest Lariat consists of Incineroar rapidly performing a series of [[wikipedia:Professional wrestling attacks#Discus|discus]] [[wikipedia:Professional wrestling attacks#Lariat|lariats]]. Its early hit is powerful, but weakens over time. It possesses [[transcendent priority]] throughout its duration, and Incineroar's arms are [[invincible]], allowing it to completely negate weak projectiles and outprioritize attacks without sufficient reach. While using it, Incineroar can also move along the ground, albeit slowly, similarly to the grounded versions of [[Spinning Kong]] and [[Mach Tornado]]. | ||

*Darkest Lariat's properties bear a major resemblance to—and are likely directly inspired by—the Double Lariat, an attack originated by {{s|wikipedia|Mike Haggar}} from the ''{{s|wikipedia|Final Fight}}'' series. However, the move has been adopted and is arguably more commonly associated with {{s|wikipedia|Zangief}} from the {{uv|Street Fighter}} series. | |||
**When explaining the move, [[Masahiro Sakurai]] compared Incineroar to a "Red Cyclone", which is a reference to Zangief's nickname. | |||
*If Darkest Lariat is used right when Incineroar bounces on top of the ropes of [[Boxing Ring]], it will launch itself incredibly high into the air. This is presumably due to the move altering Incineroar's falling speed while it is used. | *If Darkest Lariat is used right when Incineroar bounces on top of the ropes of [[Boxing Ring]], it will launch itself incredibly high into the air.
