'''Draconic Ascent''' ({{ja|翔竜翼|Shōryūyoku}}, ''Soaring Dragon Wings''), known as '''Dragon Ascent''' in NTSC versions of ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and all English versions of ''Ultimate'', is [[Corrin]]'s [[up special move]]. | |||

Corrin activates Dragon Fang and sprouts wings from | Corrin activates Dragon Fang and sprouts wings from their back right before ascending into the air, accompanied with splashes of water, before spreading their wings at the end of the flight. While taking off or during ascension, any opponents caught in Corrin’s wings will be damaged and dragged along. Being in contact with an opponent at takeoff deals 4% damage, and the actual ascent can deal as much as 9% over multiple hitboxes (13% total). The move can potentially KO as high as 155%. The water created by the move's takeoff can push opponents if they're too far away to hit. | ||

*By default, Corrin will ascend moderately high (just over the height of a ground jump) upward and slightly forward. This angle has four stages, signaled by four different shots of water. The angle of each stage after the first can be altered by holding left or right, though the difference this makes while recovering is negligible. | *By default, Corrin will ascend moderately high (just over the height of a ground jump) upward and slightly forward.

*If the player inputs in the opposite direction that Corrin is facing, the distance traveled will be higher than usual (almost as high as a ground+double jump) and straight upward. Attempting to input the opposite direction immediately will result in the ascent being reversed instead. | *If the player inputs in the opposite direction that Corrin is facing, the distance traveled will be higher than usual (almost as high as a ground+double jump) and straight upward.

Corrin has complete invincibility for a split second during the move's startup. With good timing, this can protect against edge-guarding and counter almost anything, including grabs. However, there are times via the aforementioned push effect, it's possible for the final hit to miss, especially if either guided improperly or if the victim uses Smash DI out of the other hits. | Corrin has complete invincibility for a split second during the move's startup.
