When used on the ground, Corrin takes a short and quick leap forward in partial dragon form; during this hop, pressing either attack button (attack or special) again activates Dragon Fang and thrust the spear-hand at a downward angle (the midair version has Corrin thrust instantly without the prior hop). The thrust deals 7% [[damage]] if started on the ground and 8% if started in the air; in both cases, the tip of the lance has a [[sweet spot]] which deals 15% damage and increased [[knockback]]. However, this thrust has low [[priority]] and can be nullified by any non-projectile hitbox.

However, this thrust has low [[priority]] and can be nullified by any non-projectile hitbox.
 
If Corrin's spear-hand makes contact with a solid surface, be it a floor or a wall, it sticks into it, causing Corrin to remain still. Any targets caught in the attack while it is held will be pinned with Corrin, unable to move, although they can shorten the duration of the pin through button mashing. From this position, Corrin can follow up with a flying kick forward (directional input forward, attack button, or special button), a flying kick backward (directional input backward), a forward front-flipping jump (up direction), or simply cancel the attack by falling to the ground (in ''Smash 4'' by waiting, with no inputs; in ''Ultimate'', in can be done manually by inputting the down direction). The attack can only be held for approximately 3 seconds.


The aforementioned flying kick propels Corrin horizontally with solid base knockback, potentially off a ledge, and both the forward and the backward versions deal 12% damage; however, a backward kick deals only 5% damage to pinned opponents, along with having a hitbox in front due to Corrin swinging around first with one leg sticking out. However, the forward jump does not allow for another action until after a few frames that occur upon Corrin reaching the apex of it.

Once the move has been used in the air, Corrin won't be able to use it again until either being hit or landing; this also applies to the grounded-hop version if it's used to hop off a ledge or any other higher elevation. However, it does not cause a helpless state.

In ''{{iw|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Fates}}'', the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Nohr Prince}} and {{s|fireemblemwiki|Nohr Princess}} classes possess the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Dragon Fang}} skill, which adds 50% of their attack value to their damage output when activated. It's also a special skill with an identical effect in ''{{iw|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Heroes}}'', but it's not exclusive and can be inherited by any unit; however, it is commonly provided with Corrin's various iterations. If wielding a sword or tome, the character transforms parts of their own body into that of a dragon's to attack.

If wielding a sword or tome, the character transforms parts of his or her body into that of a dragon's to attack. This move comes from the second part of a Dragon Fang-induced {{s|fireemblemwiki|critical hit}}, in which the character transforms his or her free arm into a spear-like appendage and stabs their opponent while in the air on the rebound of a flipping slash. The ability to stick the limb into a solid surface is unique to the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series.

*If a character with high damage is crouching and Corrin uses the move to pin them, said character will jolt a bit forward, and then quickly jolt back into normal position, except quite a bit above the spear. This becomes more noticeable the more damage the character has.
