'''Shadow Sneak''' ({{ja|かげうち|Kageuchi}}, ''Shadow Strike'') is [[Greninja]]'s [[side special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. The move allows Greninja to suddenly disappear and reappear to ambush foes. The longer the button is held down, the greater the distance, and Greninja can still move about freely<ref>[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqF39hrz3w Sakurai's Miiverse comment]</ref> and even taunt<ref>https://vine.co/v/OmYKLIMMlLD</ref>, but cannot dash, attack (except for its down Taunt), shield, or grab. | |||
When performed, a duplicate of Greninja's shadow on the floor will move forward as long as the button is pressed. Should Greninja move while the shadow creeps forward, the shadow will move relative to its position. Releasing the button will teleport Greninja to the shadow, doing a quick kick upon reappearing. If the player holds the control stick or directional pad forward as Greninja reappears, Greninja will preform a frontal flip kick that does 10%. However if the player holds in the opposite direction as Greninja reappears, Greninja will preform a back kick that does 12% damage and slightly stronger knockback. | |||
When used toward an [[edge]] while on the ground, Greninja will not teleport past the edge. Shadow Sneak also doesn't cause [[helplessness]] in mid-air, extending Greninja's already impressive [[recovery]]. | |||
Due to the shadow being the only indicator, performing the move in the air, on a stage where the shadow is less visible (e.g. [[Pictochat]]) or when the stage is tilted in a way so that the floor is not visible makes timing the move more difficult, but also works as a [[mindgame]] as a player opponent might also have difficulty seeing the shadow. The shadow is also more subtle in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' than ''[[Super Smash Bros. for 3DS]]''. | |||

Introduced in Generation IV, Shadow Sneak is a physical Ghost-type attack.

Greninja is capable of learning Shadow Sneak, but at level 23, long before it evolves, so it requires the {{s|bulbapedia|Move Reminder}} to learn it. | |||
