Grappling Hook (ワイヤーアクション, Wire Action) is Joker's up special move in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
When the move is used, Joker will shoot a grappling hook either upwards, or at an angle, depending on the player's input. It acts as a tether recovery, similar to Ivysaur's Vine Whip, and can pull opponents closer to Joker if it hits them. If Arsene is summoned when the move is inputted, Joker will instead use Wings of Rebellion (反逆の翼, Wings of Rebellion), which causes Arsene to allow Joker to fly upwards, or at a slight angle. Joker is invincible during Wings of Rebellion's startup.
Origin
Joker is never seen using a grappling hook to traverse Palaces, but he does use one in various menu screens. Wings of Rebellion has no solid base in Persona 5, but is likely based on the fact that Arsene is capable of flight. The name of the attack calls back to a speech that is heard whenever Joker begins a new Confidant: the voice of Lavenza, the true form of the twin wardens Caroline and Justine informs him that the bond he has just forged "shall become the wings of rebellion that breaketh thy chains of captivity."
Trivia
- Grappling Hook is the only tether recovery up special not introduced in Brawl.
