Terry can perform a Power Wave out of some normal attacks, as part of his special-canceling mechanic. By pressing the special button after connecting with one of certain standard attacks, Terry will cancel the ending lag of the attack and perform a Power Wave.

—Description from Ultimate's Move List

Power Wave (パワーウェイブ, Power Wave) is Terry's neutral special move.

Overview

Terry slams his fist into the ground, creating a burst of energy that travels across the ground. Much like Hadoken, the move has two different speeds, depending on whether or not the player holds the button or taps it. If used in the air, it will instead be a burst of energy that covers a small distance around him. Upon activation, Terry will either shout "Power Wave!" or "Rock you!"

Canceling

Terry can perform a Power Wave out of some standard attacks, as part of his special-canceling mechanic. By pressing the special button after connecting with one of certain standard attacks, Terry will cancel the ending lag of the attack and perform a Power Wave. Compared to some of his other special moves, Power Wave is not nearly as effective for follow-ups.

Power Wave is a move within Terry's repertoire that has stuck with him since the original Fatal Fury, making an appearance alongside him in every following Fatal Fury title and later in the King of Fighters series. The aerial version is based on a similar move known as the Round Wave seen in games like The King of Fighters '96.
