A '''neutral attack''' ({{ja|弱攻撃|Jaku kōgeki}}), often referred to as a '''jab''' (and officially '''standard attack''' or '''weak attack'''<!--in Wimpy KO bonus in Melee--> before ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''), is the most basic [[attack]] a character can perform. It is performed by pressing the attack button while standing on the ground, with no input from the [[control stick]]. Typically, neutral attacks are fast, short-ranged, weak attacks meant for easy close-range [[punish]]es or escaping [[pressure]]. | A '''neutral attack''' ({{ja|弱攻撃|Jaku kōgeki}}, ''Weak attack''), often referred to as a '''jab''' (and officially '''standard attack''' or '''weak attack'''<!--in Wimpy KO bonus in Melee--> before ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Almost all neutral attacks in the series are [[natural combo]]s: a type of attack with multiple stages which lead directly into each other. Just after the first attack is thrown, pressing the attack button again – regardless of whether the first attack connected – will result in an immediate follow-up attack. Certain natural combos also have a third stage, with a few that have a fourth stage. [[Mario]]'s iconic neutral attack, a simple punch-punch-kick combo, is a well-known example of a three-stage neutral attack. | Almost all neutral attacks in the series are [[natural combo]]s: a type of attack with multiple stages which lead directly into each other.
