Explosive Flame: Difference between revisions

'''Explosive Flame''' ({{ja|爆炎|Bakuen}}, ''Bursting Flame'') (sometimes miscalled '''Explosive Light''', or similar variations) is one of [[Palutena]]'s alternate [[neutral special move]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and is her [[side special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

Upon using this move, Palutena summons a spherical explosion in front of her a set distance away (increased by a smash input in ''Ultimate''). This explosion expands and engulfs any opponents trapped in it, causing steady damage and trapping opponents, similar to the [[Smart Bomb]]. It is unable to hit anyone directly in front of her, but if she is moving – falling or on a moving platform – the explosion will appear in relation to where she was when the button was pressed (indicated by a flash) instead of where she is when the explosion begins.

Special Move customisation was added in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These are the variations:

{{CustomSet|Palutena|Neutral|name1=Autoreticle|desc1=Fire energy blasts from your staff directly at an opponent in front of you.|name2=Explosive Flame|desc2=Create a blast in front of you that can hit opponents multiple times.|name3=Heavenly Light|desc3=Surround yourself in rays of light that damage opponents.|main=2}}
