The '''Rush Coil''' ({{ja|ラッシュコイル|Rasshukoiru}}, ''Rush Coil'') is [[Mega Man]]'s [[up special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

When the move is activated, Mega Man calls his robot dog, Rush, to battle. Rush activates a coil that any character can jump on to reach higher areas. After about three seconds, Rush will warp out of the battlefield. Similar to [[Sonic]]'s [[Spring Jump]], characters can hop on Rush also while it's on the ground, but will launch the character higher than when it is in the air (or when initially used by Mega Man). Also like Spring Jump, the move allows Mega Man to attack in the air after using it. Mega Man can also use his [[midair jump]] after Rush Coil if he has not done so already.

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

# '''Beat''': When used, Beat will appear instead of Rush and carry Mega Man upward, giving him more horizontal distance, but is slower.

{{Flag|pal}} ''Mega Man's robotic dog Rush has many talents. He can transform into vehicles and even fuse with Mega Man, which is both cool and slightly weird. Even cooler is his Rush Coil function. Use Mega Man's up special to call Rush, jump on his back, and enjoy the extra boost you only get from a bouncy, robotic-dog back spring.''

''A bird-shaped support robot created by the genius scientist Dr. Cossack. Beat first appeared in Mega Man 5, where he was available to use only after Mega Man collected all eight plates hidden throughout the game. He flies toward enemies and attacks, making him a trusted ally when facing both regular enemies and bosses.''

The Rush Coil, and Rush himself, first appeared in ''Mega Man 3''. In this game, Rush could appear at any time, and give Mega Man a boost to reach a high platform. This would cost Mega Man 3 energy units. However in later games, this move would only cost 2 energy units. Rush could also transform into a jet or a submarine.

Beat first appeared in ''Mega Man 5'', designed by Dr. Cossack, the unwilling enemy of the previous game, to help Mega Man. In his original appearance, he acts as a weapon, automatically targeting enemies that get close to Mega Man, but this was changed in later games, as it was too powerful. His usual function thereafter was to act as a safety net, saving Mega Man if he fell down a pit. He could only be used a set number of times before having to be re-bought and could not save Mega Man from other instant death traps like spikes and crushers.

The other variation of the move, Tornado Hold, was introduced in ''Mega Man 8'' as the weapon of Tengu Man. Using this weapon, a fan is placed on the ground to create a tornado to trap and possibly damage enemies. Alternatively, the power could be used as a barrier against projectiles or as a boost to access certain areas. Tornado Hold also functioned as Clown Man's weakness, tangling his arms and leaving him vulnerable.
