A dash is a form of ground movement faster than walking. It is performed by tapping sideways on the control stick. The player's character enters their initial dash animation, in which they change directions with very little lag, and then proceeds to their running animation. In Brawl, a character attempting to dash can trip instead. In Smash 4 and Ultimate, dashing off a platform will cause the character to perform a short flipping animation, and landing on another platform while continuing to hold the control stick in that direction will allow them to continue dashing. While dashing, characters can also perform their dash attack, shield, or jump. The Bunny Hood, Superspicy Curry, and Super Mushroom items increases a character's running speed.
Other terminology
The initial dash is the first part of a character's dash, during which a character can change directions with only 1 frame of lag. The concept of the initial dash is vital to many forms of ground movement, such as dash-dancing, fox-trotting, and pivoting. However, from Brawl onwards, the window for turning around during an initial dash does not last for the entire dash (six frames in Smash 4), making dash-dancing much harder, and fox-trotting is also not entirely dependent on the length of the initial dash. The best example of this is Sheik and Roy, who have nearly identical fox-trots despite Roy's initial dash being over twice as long as Sheik's (17 frames to her 8 frames).
The turn-around animation plays when the character attempts to change directions after their initial dash. Unlike in an initial dash, attempting to turn around during a run can take as long as 51 frames (Marth in Melee), and before Smash 4, it can only be canceled with a jump (and therefore up smash and up special) or reversed side special. However, from Brawl onwards, canceling the jump with an up smash or up special also reverses its direction, and in Smash 4, the turn-around animation can be canceled with a reversed forward tilt or forward smash. In Ultimate it can be canceled with all ground moves, doing which will make characters keep some momentum from the animation. Coupled with the universal speed buffs, this allows characters like Chrom and Sheik with high ground speed but laggy dash attacks to use running forward tilt as an approach option. Any shield input is also ignored during this animation, and due to the way the Ultimate input system works, pressing the grab button will produce a 1 frame attack input, allowing for uncharged smash attacks.
A stutter step is the term for when a character begins to dash but stops almost immediately, often used for positioning and mind games. Along with merely stopping, characters can also dash cancel via a variety of other methods.
The skidding animation plays when the character stops running after their initial dash and attempts to stop their momentum. The length of this animation varies between characters, but it can also vary depending on the speed the character is running at relative to their maximum running speed. Shorter skidding animations are preferred, particularly in Smash games where dash canceling is impossible. For example, in Smash 4, Bowser, Charizard, Ganondorf, and Lucario have extremely short skidding animations even after stopping at maximum speed, which effectively allows them to do any attack out of their runs with little lag in between, or even seamlessly begin another dash in the opposite direction. This animation can only be canceled with a jump, or with an item pick up if one is nearby. Its first few frames can also be canceled into any special move.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
Initial dash
Because the initial dash animation translates into the running animation much later than in Brawl, it is a vital tool for movement in general and dash-dancing in particular. During the initial dash, the following actions can be used:
- Altering the speed of the dash with the control stick, most notably backward to Moonwalk.
- Turning around by mashing the control stick in the opposite direction. Turning around takes one frame during which the character is standing and can do all ground attacks except neutral B. If the control stick stays in a neutral position after this pivot frame, the character will keep standing.
- Pressing A or C-Stick forward/backward during the first 3 frames to do a small step forward smash. This is only possible after dashing forward, not backward.
- Pressing A after the first 3 frames to do a dash attack.
- Pressing L or R to shield. During the first two frames of a forward dash, L/R always triggers a roll. On frame 3, they trigger the shield, but with 1 frame delay.
- Pressing L+A, R+A or Z to do a dash grab.
- Jumping and jump canceling.
- Using forward special.
- Pressing forward again to enter run break animation. From here you can crouch immediately and do any move. This can be used for a quick dash into dtilt, or a non-JC down special.
Run
During the run — the later part of the dash — different options are available:
- Pressing down to crouch. (Spending 1 frame in the RunBrake animation is necessary before the crouch can start.)
- Turning around by mashing or pushing the control stick in the opposite direction. Turning around takes very long, up to 51 frames (Marth). During the turnaround animation, only a jump can interrupt it.
- Pressing A or C-Stick forward/backward during the first 3 frames to do a small step forward smash. This is only possible after dashing forward, not backward.
- Pressing A to do a dash attack.
- Pressing L or R to shield.
- Pressing L+A, R+A, or Z to do a dash grab.
- Jumping and jump canceling.
- Using special moves.
Running speed
Running speed is the rate at which a character can run.

The Japanese version data and NA dash data was taken from Antdgar's Frame Data
Super Smash Bros. Melee rankings
Starting in Melee, much like with air acceleration, there exist two acceleration values for each character's initial dash speed until it reaches their run speed: a base value that determines the minimum acceleration, and an additional value that is scaled based on how much the control stick is tilted. A character's maximum potential acceleration is the sum of these two values. For example, Pikachu has a base value of 0.01 and an additional value of 0.15, so its dash acceleration can vary from 0.01 at minimum input to 0.16 at maximum input. If the character's initial dash speed is equal to their run speed, the acceleration values are not used, while if it is higher, the character's traction value is used to decrease it down to their run speed.

Note that several slow runners can use their dash attack to travel a far distance quicker, and some characters have a DACUS to increase mobility. The most notable case of this is Snake, whose DACUS gives him much more stage control and ability to evade opponents.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate rankings
In Ultimate, run speeds have been buffed across the board by roughly 10%, with the exception of a few characters (for example, Snake’s run speed was increased by more than 10%, Dr. Mario’s was increased by less than 10%, and Ryu’s wasn’t changed at all). Additionally, most initial dashes have seen significant speed increases, which when combined with the altered foxtrot mechanics gives all characters an effective dash-dance. However, turnaround dashes now have 3 frames of delay before fighters begin accelerating, as opposed to the 1 frame delay of a regular dash, making it take slightly longer for fighters to begin retreating by dashing.

Trivia
- In SSB4 and Ultimate, Dr. Mario's dash speed (along with most of his other attributes) is actually coded to be identical to Mario's. However, due to external multipliers, his dash speed is slower in-game as a result.
- There are some inconsistencies for some characters' running speeds in their origin games, presumably due to balancing reasons:
- While generally being faster than Mario in the Mario games, like in New Super Luigi U and the Super Mario Galaxy series, Luigi has been slower in every game in the Super Smash Bros. series to date.
- This is likely a reference to him being slower than Mario in earlier and possibly outdated appearances, such as Super Mario Bros. 2, as a trade-off for higher jumps.
- Wolf and Falco dash slower than Fox, despite being faster than him in Star Fox: Assault.
- Ike is a generally slow character in the Smash games, despite having good speed stats in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn.
- However, in Fire Emblem: Fates as a secret Amiibo fighter, Ike has poor speed stats, likely in reference to his Smash appearances.
- Lucario dashes significantly slower than Pikachu, Pichu, and Ivysaur (in Brawl) despite Pikachu having the same base Speed stat and the Pichu and Ivysaur being slower in the Pokémon games.
- Also, in Pokémon, Mega Lucario gets a slight speed increase, but Mega Lucario runs slower than regular Lucario in Smash 4.
- King K. Rool is canonically faster than Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong in the Donkey Kong Country games when running away, yet is immensely slower than them in Ultimate.
- While generally being faster than Mario in the Mario games, like in New Super Luigi U and the Super Mario Galaxy series, Luigi has been slower in every game in the Super Smash Bros. series to date.
- Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Kirby, and Villager all dash the same way they do in their origin games.
