Mario Tornado

Mario Tornado was a special move that Mario could use in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, and again in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as an aerial attack. After pressing B and tilting the control stick in the down position, Mario would spin around, suck the foe in, spin them silly, and then spit them out, damaging opponents, in a similar fashion to Luigi's Luigi Cyclone. The move is powerful, but is best used when surrounded by opponents. Mario Tornado unlike Luigi Cyclone cannot move very far. The Mario Tornado is replaced as his down special move by F.L.U.D.D. in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Mario Tornado will still be one of his normal attacks, however. In both games, Mario can use the attack in mid-air.

Mario has two similar moves to the Mario Tornado, the Spin Jump, and the Star Spin.
