A '''Special Move''' is any move performed by pressing the B button or whatever button the player assigns in Brawl. Generally, special attacks provide more damage than [[smash attack]]s, although it's unlikely to provide a KO in some situation. 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 and [[Olimar]]'s Up 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.

Meta Knight's special moves

A special move is any move performed by pressing the special button. Generally, special attacks provide more damage than smash attacks, although it's unlikely to provide a KO in some situation. Unlike other attacks, special attacks can have wildly different functions - for instance, Falco's side special is a quick running swipe familiar to a dash attack, whereas Samus' forward special is a projectile that leaves Samus stationary. Usually, only special attacks can be projectiles (an exception is Snake's and Olimar's up 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 special moves). 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 the neutral special move, side special move, down special move, up special move, and the Final Smash.
