Shulk's up special in ''SSB4'' is Air Slash, a two-hit attack that serves as his main [[recovery]] move. The first hit is a rising slash that carries Shulk upward a decent distance, similar to [[Marth]] and [[Lucina]]'s [[Dolphin Slash]]. The optional second hit, performed by pressing the Special button after the first hit, is a wide outward slash that provides a small diagonal boost; the input for this can be delayed slightly to give Shulk a small extra horizontal boost, possibly letting him grab a ledge when he normally couldn't. The first hit has [[set knockback]] that leads into the second hit, which has decent horizontal knockback that can KO offstage, especially with the Smash [[Monado Arts|Art]] active. The vertical boost is also affected by Arts, making it a much better recovery move with Jump, but somewhat worse with Shield.
