'''Flare Blade''' ({{ja|エクスプロージョン|Ekusupurōjon}}, ''Explosion'') is [[Roy]]'s and [[Chrom]]'s [[neutral special move]], derived from the ''[[Melee]]'' iteration of {{SSBM|Marth}}'s [[Shield Breaker]]. It is known for being one of the few moves capable of dealing a [[one-hit KO]] in the ''Smash Bros.'' series. It is also known for being the most powerful attack of any character that is not a [[Final Smash]].

Flare Blade returns as Roy's neutral special move. It appears relatively unchanged, but Roy can now turn around freely during the charge process, allowing more flexibility to the move.

{{SSBU|Chrom}}, Roy's [[Echo Fighter]], shares the same neutral special. Chrom's Flare Blade is a yellow wind/slash shockwave, without any elemental [[effect]] associated to it despite its name. The particles emitted during the move's charge-up are also different, with [[list of swords#Falchion|Falchion]] slowly glowing with a blue sparkle from the hilt to the tip, and Chrom generating aesthetic shockwaves after each third of a charge, making the charge level easier to visually identify. Chrom himself glows blue while charging the move, causing it to closely resemble Marth's Shield Breaker in ''Melee''. Additionally, dust appears around Chrom while he is charging the move, and the explosion kicks up a considerable amount of debris.

In 1v1s, it causes 12% recoil damage to Roy and Chrom due to the newly added [[1v1 multiplier]]. In [[free-for-alls]] and [[doubles]], however, it remains 10% damage.

Like many slow and powerful attacks, a fully charged Flare Blade causes [[Special Zoom]] if it connects.

In ''{{iw|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade}}'', the titular {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Binding Blade|weapon}} wielded by Roy is capable of channeling fire when Roy attacks from afar or scores a {{iw|fireemblemwiki|critical hit}}.  Roy's movements and sword arc when using Flare Blade are also based on his critical while wielding the Binding Blade. Unlike the move's depiction in ''Smash'', Roy didn't originally attack his opponents directly with fire, and was instead only shown during the animation.

Chrom has no abilities in any ''Fire Emblem'' game that resemble his version of the Flare Blade move.
