Robo Beam

Robo Beam is the name for R.O.B.'s Neutral B Special Move. The attack is a short pink laser that does a short amount of damage (normally 5%) and has decent stun capabilities. The shots can be angled and reflects off of walls and floors. R.O.B. must wait 1 second for the laser to recharge, or R.O.B. will shoot a weak, short-range laser. When the laser is charged, the red light on R.O.B.'s head will begin to flash. There are actually 2 levels of charge; if the beam is left alone for 20 seconds, it will fire a stronger, thicker beam, known as the Super Robo Beam. Super Robo Beam has increased range and will cover the whole distance of the screen.

If used at a very close range, the beam will do higher, fire type damage, starting at 9%.

Trivia

The flashing of the red light on R.O.B.'s head is a throwback to when the red light indicated that R.O.B. was ready for use with the NES. Template:R.O.B. Special Moves
