[https:// | [https://megatenwiki.com/wiki/Tetrakarn Tetrakarn] and [https://megatenwiki.com/wiki/Makarakarn Makarakarn] are recurring support skills in the ''{{iw|wikipedia|Megami Tensei}}'' franchise, first appearing in 1992's ''{{iw|wikipedia|Shin Megami Tensei|video game}}''. Originally, Tetrakarn would simply block any single physical attack that hits the user's party, while Makarakarn would block any single magical attack that connects. Later games, including ''Persona 5'', would change this to have Tetrakarn and Makarakarn reflect the attack back at the caster. In ''Persona 5'', Arsène cannot learn either move normally, but can inherit them from other Personas via Skill Cards or Fusion. The sound effects they use in ''Super Smash Bros.'' are taken directly from their usage in ''Persona 5''. | ||

*If the [[Shadow]] [[Assist Trophy]] freezes Joker while performing Rebel's Guard or Tetrakarn / Makarakarn if [[Arsène]] is active, the counter / reflect hitbox will remain active and trigger if hit. In the case of Rebel's Guard and Tetrakarn, The frozen Joker will not attack until being unfrozen, but will remain [[intangible]] in the mean time. With Rebel's Guard specifically, the [[Rebellion Gauge]] will fill as normal, but the burst hitbox will not trigger until being unfrozen. | |||
