Rock Smash
Rock Smash is a Fighting-type attack from the Pokémon franchise. In the Super Smash Bros. series, Rock Smash is Charizard's side special move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and its down special move in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, its previous spot filled by Flare Blitz.
Upon using the move, Charizard pulls out a boulder and smashes it with his head, damaging any nearby opponents. The attack deals the most damage when Charizard is first hitting the rock, while the shards deal small amounts of damage. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, this move has super armor, meaning that Charizard cannot be knocked back while the move is being used.
In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, the first custom variant for this move is Sinking Skull, which buries the rock and decreases the power of the move but allows Charizard to bury opponents. The second is Rock Hurl, which sends out rock shards at a higher angle but does not deal as much damage.
