The '''Gentleman''' refers to the third hit of [[Captain Falcon]]'s standing [[neutral attack]] combo, when it is not followed by rapid punches. It involves Captain Falcon kneeing his opponent, with low to moderate knockback at higher percents. It deals 10% damage in ''Smash 64'', 8% in ''Melee'', and 5% in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4''. | The '''Gentleman''' refers to the third hit of [[Captain Falcon]]'s standing [[neutral attack]] combo, when it is not followed by rapid punches.

In most of the Japanese movesets however, it's official name is the '''Knee Bat''' ({{ja|ニーバット|Nī Batto}}). | |||

There are several methods to perform the Gentleman. The player can perform the third punch by pressing any button in conjunction with the [[neutral attack]] ({{Sm|Isai}} finds this easiest to achieve with [[Z button|Z]]). {{Sm|S2J}} discovered that one can hold down on the control stick after the initial jab and continue the rest of the combo to do the Gentleman. The safest and most guaranteed (but not necessarily the easiest) method is to simply allow each jab to complete its animation. However, the first two methods do not work if the jab combo whiffs (even the last method has a chance of failing if the first or second jabs whiff), leaving Captain Falcon wide open if the opponent can escape it in time. | There are several methods to perform the Gentleman.
