Unblockable attack

This article or section may require a cleanup. The editor who added this tag believes this page should be cleaned up for the following reason: Frankly, this stage looks ugly and unappealing You can discuss this issue on the talk page or edit this page to improve it.

An unblockable attack is an attack that cannot be defended against with a shield or a counterattack (although some can be perfect shielded). Unblockable attacks tend to be exceptionally powerful and are often Final Smashes, wielded by bosses, or attacks from rare Pokémon and Assist Trophies. Most characters have at least one unblockable attack, but very few have one that is not a Final Smash.

Unblockable attacks can be avoided by intangibility, such as spotdodges and air dodging.

All grabs are unblockable and so will not be included in the following list.
