A '''special move''' is any move performed by pressing the B button or whatever button the player assigns in Brawl.  Unlike other attacks, special attacks can have wildly different functions - for instance, [[Falco]]'s [[forward B]] is a quick running swipe familiar to a [[dash attack]], whereas [[Samus]]' forward B is a projectile that leaves Samus stationary.  Usually, only special attacks can be projectiles (an exception is [[Snake]]'s Up and Down Smash), and some are able to render the user [[helpless]] if used in mid-air (usually those that function as mid-air jumps, like most [[up B]] attacks). A [[Final Smash]] is a special type of special move that can be accessed when the smash ball is obtained. When obtained, the standard special move is then replaced with the final smash that usually does a very high damaging attack that can affect more than one person.


Special attacks include [[neutral B]], [[forward B]], [[down B]], [[up B]] and the [[Final Smash]].<!--

A special move is an attack performed by using B button. Different special moves can be performed by tilting the control stick in a certain direction while pressing B. In Super Smash Bros. every character had three special moves while in Melee and Brawl every character has four. Every character has unique special moves, although Clone characters such as Falco have special moves with only minor differences from other characters. The Neutral B, Up B, Down B, and Side B attacks are special moves. Keep in mind though that B won't necessarily be the special move button in Brawl due to controller scheme variations. Neutral B or standard B moves are basic attacks, like the firing of a weapon. Side B moves are bold attacks that launch in the direction you tilt the control stick. Down B moves do unusual things, like reflect enemy attacks. Up B moves are crucial. They’re used to do high jumps and for recovering when you’re falling off the stage.
