SSBB Falco's Firebird released
Fire Bird is Falco's Up Special Move in both Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The effects are as follows:
- Does 14% damage.
- Somewhat high priority.
- Puts opponent on fire.
- Lags at the beginning.
- In Brawl, opponents that are caught in the move will be dragged with Falco, similar to Lucas's PK Thunder when he hits himself with it.
- Arguably the worst recover move in Melee
Unlike the Fire Fox, it doesn't burn opponents during the charge-up animation in Melee but, in Brawl it does. It also appears to cover a slightly shorter distance.
