Sun Salutation (太陽礼拝, Sun Worship) is the Wii Fit Trainer's neutral special move in Super Smash Bros. 4 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
This move is a chargeable projectile that the Trainer summons by performing the yoga pose of the name the move comes from. It can be stored and used later, similar to Samus's Charge Shot. When fully charged, the move heals Wii Fit Trainer by 2% when shot, and the Wii Fit Trainer will sometimes shout "Sun salutation!" in the PAL version or "Salute the sun!" in the American version of the game. It uses a unique effect known as the solar effect.
Customization
Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:
| 1. Sun Salutation | 2. Enriched Sun Salutation | 3. Sweeping Sun Salutation |
|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
| "Charge a ball of energy. Press again to launch it. Heals you slightly when fully charged." | "Charge a ball of energy that condenses while charging. Press again to launch it. Won't heal." | "The energy ball travels slowly but hits foes multiple times, pushing them away." |
- Sun Salutation: Default
- Enriched Sun Salutation: The energy ball gets smaller as it charges and is more powerful. It will not heal Wii Fit Trainer when fully charged. (Damage: 3% uncharged, 20% fully charged)
- Sweeping Sun Salutation: The energy ball is light blue and moves slowly, pushing any opponents in the way while hitting multiple times, somewhat similarly to the Drill. (Damage: 1.2% per hit uncharged, 1.6% per hit charged)
Origin
followed by bending down and touching one's toes.
In Wii Fit, Sun Salutation was one of the series of yoga poses the player could choose from and then be guided through by either the male or female Wii Fit Trainer. Designed to tone the arms and thighs, it went as follows: standing on the Wii Balance Board, the player would keep their center of balance within a yellow oval while reaching up and behind them, bending down to touch their toes, reaching up while bending their knees, returning to the starting position and then repeating for the chosen amount of repetitions.
In Super Smash Bros. 4, the Wii Fit Trainer does the reaching up and back step of the Sun Salutation while charging the move and touches their toes when shooting it. The knee-bending step is not used.
While the sun energy ball does not appear in Wii Fit, it does resemble the background of the yoga training exercises, meant to regulate breathing.
Trivia
- Sun Salutation generates a weak push effect while charging, which will cause high-leveled CPU fighters to react by holding their shield or spamming dodges if close by. This is an example of flaws in artificial intelligence.
- This is the Wii Fit Trainer's only special move to be based on a yoga pose.
- When the game is paused while the ball of light is on screen, rather than appearing as a cartoonish yellow ball of light, it appears more realistic, and imitates the lens flare effect of real life cameras.
