Elwind

Elwind is Robin's up special move in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It originates from the Fire Emblem series as a type of wind magic.

Robin casts two blasts of wind to send him into the air, as well as damage opponents beneath him; the first hit acts like a meteor smash. Elwind can be used up to nine times before its durability is used up, a six second cooldown period following before the spell can be used again. Elwind's durability is also used when using Robin's continuous neutral finisher.

In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, the first custom variant for this move is Soaring Elwind, which reduces the height of the first gust but increases the height of the second, overall increasing Robin's jump height for this move. The second variant is Gliding Elwind, which propels Robin upward diagonally in the direction he is facing for the first attack, then straight up for the second; the attack power is decreased, however.
