Editing Secret Ninja Attack

|interwikipage = Mat Block

In this Final Smash, [[Greninja]] sends one or more foes airborne by using Mat Block: hitting them with a {{s|wikipedia|tatami}}, then overwhelms its opponent with slashes, kicks, and palm strikes in front of the moon. Greninja then readies a final blow to [[meteor smash]] the foe.  

It is similar to Ike’s [[Great Aether]].

:{{Flag|North America}} ''In Greninja's Final Smash, it uses its Mat Block move to flip opponents into the air. It then slices them repeatedly in front of the bright moon before smacking them back to the ground and launching them. The initial Mat Block flip doesn't have much range, but should it hit home, the rest of the attack is unavoidable.''

:{{Flag|Europe}} ''In Greninja's Final Smash, it uses its Mat Block move to flip an opponent into the air. It then slices them repeatedly in front of the shining moon, before smacking them down to the ground so hard they get launched. The initial Mat Block flip doesn't have much range, but if it hits home, there's no evading the rest of the attack.''

Greninja activates this move by striking downward at a tatami, a type of mat, to flip it upward and hit opponents, referencing {{iw|bulbapedia|Mat Block|move}} (known in Japan as Tatami Flip), formerly one of its {{iw|bulbapedia|signature move}}s in the ''Pokémon'' games. Mat Block possesses the ability to defend the user's side of the field from all attacks used after it; however, unlike other protective moves, it does not possess increased priority and thus will fail if used last in the turn. It is also only able to be used the first turn after Greninja enters the field; at all other times, it will fail. While not named after it, the move's overall aesthetics may have drawn inspiration from Night Slash, a move Greninja can learn by leveling up in the games.

In the Pokémon anime, upon his final evolution, {{iw|bulbapedia|Ash Ketchum}}’s [[bulbapedia:Ash's Greninja|Greninja]] originally obtained a unique ability called {{iw|bulbapedia|Bond Phenomenon}}, but in the game, Greninja obtains a Bond Phenomenon's true form called  {{iw|bulbapedia|Battle Bond}}. It is similar to Mega Evolution but relies on being in sync with Ash rather than a Mega Stone. This transformation caused Greninja to temporarily take on a design based on Ash and his Kalos outfit, as well as producing a psychic bond with Ash. The transformation later appeared in the main series games with a special Greninja (Ash’s) only obtainable in the ''Sun'' and ''Moon'' demo, where the transformation would activate upon defeating an opponent. This transformation appears in Secret Ninja Attack in ''Ultimate''.
