Straight Lunge

The Straight Lunge is Little Mac's neutral special move in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. When used, Little Mac charges a punch; he will not flinch when attacked while charging. By pressing the button again, Little Mac charges forward and hits any opponents in his path with an uppercut. The more it is charged, the farther he travels and the more powerful the punch is. However, this also causes Little Mac to cool down for a longer period.

The two variations for this move are Flaming Straight Lunge and Stunning Straight Lunge. Flaming Straight Lunge deals fire damage, charges more quickly, and can hit multiple times but deals less damage. Stunning Straight Run stuns opponents when fully charged and travels a farther distance, though it doesn't ignore knockback when charging.

When Little Mac's KO Meter is full, the Straight Lunge is replaced with a one-use move: Little Mac delivers a powerful uppercut in front of himself, launching any opponents caught in the punch a considerable distance.

The Straight Lunge is the move Kirby copies after Inhaling Little Mac, but he cannot use the uppercut as he does not gain a Power Meter.
