Shulk (SSB4)/Neutral special/Default

Overview

Shulk's neutral special in SSB4 is Monado Arts. Each hit of the special button will show 5 different Arts: Jump, Speed, Shield, Buster, and Smash. Once an Art activates, it will last for 16 seconds. However, once an Art deactivates, the player must wait 10 seconds before it becomes available again. Each Art has their own positives and drawbacks, such as making Shulk jump higher, but making him take more damage.
