Darkest Lariat (ＤＤラリアット, DD Lariat) is Incineroar's neutral special move in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
Darkest Lariat is a move that has Incineroar extend its hands out and begin spinning rapidly. The move sports a hitbox with transcendent priority throughout the duration of the attack. Incineroar can move along the ground while using it, similar to the grounded version of Spinning Kong and Mach Tornado.
Origin
Darkest Lariat is a Dark-type move introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon, and is the signature move of Incineroar. It has 85 base power, and ignores all changes to the opponent's Defense and Evasion stats.
Trivia
- The move's properties bear a major resemblance to - and is likely directly inspired by - the Double Lariat; an attack originated by Mike Haggar from the Final Fight series. However, the move has been adopted and is arguably more commonly associated with Zangief from the Street Fighter series.
- When explaining the move, Sakurai compared Incineroar to a "Red Cyclone", which is a reference to Zangief's nickname.
