An '''unblockable attack''' (also called '''unblockable move''' or '''unblockable''') is an attack that cannot be defended against with a [[shield]] | An '''unblockable attack''' (also called '''unblockable move''' or '''unblockable''') is an attack that cannot be defended against with a [[shield]] nor a [[counterattack]]. Unblockable attacks tend to be exceptionally powerful and are often [[grab]]s, [[Final Smash]]es, wielded by bosses, or moves from rare Pokémon and Assist Trophies. In ''[[Brawl]]'', ''[[Smash 4]]'', and ''[[Ultimate]]'', most characters have at least one unblockable attack if grabs and Final Smashes (Final Smashes for all characters) are counted. However, there are lots of other moves that are unblockable outside of these cases (including wielded by bosses or moves from rare Pokémon and Assist Trophies). | ||
Unblockable attacks can still be avoided by [[intangibility]], such as [[sidestep]]ping and [[air dodging]], as well as {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}'s [[Witch Time]] in most cases. True [[invincibility]] also protects against unblockable attacks, such as that granted by a [[Super Star]]. | Unblockable attacks can still be avoided by [[intangibility]], such as [[sidestep]]ping and [[air dodging]], as well as {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}'s [[Witch Time]] in most cases.
