ARMS Change (アームチェンジ, Arm Change) is Min Min's down special move.

Overview

The three available ARMS to change between.

When activated, the ARM currently equipped on Min Min's right arm will cycle onto the next available ARM, with three different options available in total. Her ARM switches on the first frame, has very little endlag, and can be performed mid-air. Min Min can switch and Punch at the same time to Punch with the next ARM.

• By default, she has the Ramram (ホットリング, Hot Ring) equipped, which has an orange ring that circles around the ARM if extended. Of the three, it is the quickest and easiest to angle up or down, which, combined with the ring's hitbox covering a large area over the duration of the move, gives it the best vertical coverage of the three ARMS and makes it an extremely effective 2-frame punish while angled down. Charged smash attacks done with the Ramram also have a fire effect.
• The second ARM she may use is the Megawatt (メガボルト, Megavolt), which is a giant sphere that, while the slowest and least versatile of the three, packs the most power and can KO as early as 40% if fully charged. Charged smash attacks done with the Megawatt also have an electric effect.
• The third ARM she may use is the Dragon (ドラゴン, Dragon), which additionally appears on her left hand at all times. Holding down the respective button for either arm equipped with the Dragon will cause it to attack with a laser beam, granting it superior horizontal range compared to the other two ARMS and a notoriously long hitbox duration. It can also be used as a 2-frame punish in the same manner as Ramram. The laser has a fire effect.

Origin

In ARMS, players have the ability to choose between three ARMS to equip on their left and right hands before the start of each round in a match. Before the match, they may choose which three types of ARMS they can switch between from a wider selection, with Min Min's default three options being the Ramram, Megawatt, and Dragon. However, in Ultimate, Min Min can switch in the middle of a match, which is not possible in ARMS. Additionally, Min Min can only switch ARMS on her right arm in Ultimate, while in ARMS characters can switch ARMS on both arms.
