Brawl)|Subspace]]"<ref name="Dojo">[http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/gamemode/modea/modea17.html Mysteries of the Subspace Emissary - Smash Bros. DOJO!!]</ref> and created the [[Subspace Army]].

*'''Off Waves<ref>(April 10, 2008). [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/gamemode/modea/modea17.html Mysteries of The Subspace Emissary]. ''Smash Bros. DOJO!!''. Retrieved February 6, 2018.</ref> (Japanese: OFF波動 ''Ofu Hadō''):''' During this attack, Tabuu appears in the background and opens up his wings which proceeds to release three red shock waves. These shock waves deal very high damage and knockback, enough to one-hit KO on normal and higher difficulties in SSE and on very hard and intense difficulties of Boss Battles. To avoid the shock waves, a character must either roll, sidestep dodge, or air dodge. If playing as Pokémon Trainer, Kirby, or Zelda/Sheik, using Down B the instant Tabuu extends his wings also works. The player can also Perfect Shield, despite the fact that the attack is unblockable. The effects of a [[Metal Box]] will help resist this attack, in which case, the character is only slightly pushed. Tabuu will use the Off Waves every eighth move. In the Boss Battles game mode, Tabuu's Off Waves can only 1-hit KO fighters on the Very Hard and Intense difficulty levels.
