Did some testing out of curiosity, and I'm positive that your hypothesis is correct regarding Greninja briefly being recognized by the game as grounded if the Dair goes low enough after the hit. From what I'm seeing slowing things down to 1/4 speed, past a certain point in the Dair (assuming it...

Greninja was essentially a different character in 1.0.3 (the 3DS days). Firstly, his Usmash had ten fewer frames of end-lag, the side-hits did 2% more, and the hitbox itself was one unit larger, making it much harder to punish when spaced while also still being very powerful for a sourspot...

Heeey, so... out of nowhere, I randomly had a ton of inspiration to look into what options our new grab gives us... even though I said I was done with research for a while. Well, anyway, I'm sure most of you guys figured this stuff out anyway, but it does have a number of advantages over our jab...

Ever since 1.1.0 hit with it still in, I've been pretty positive SSHC is intended. In the past, both Mega Man and Diddy had specials that negated minor hitstun, too, and those were removed pretty quickly. Shadow Sneak definitely can still work properly if they removed it. All they would have to...

Popping in here to explain everything I know regarding SSHC (and a bit about SS in general). So, basically, as mentioned, if Greninja is hit by any attack that does not send him into tumble, he can activate the moving shadow portion of the move. The way Shadow Sneak works is that the moment you...

Request to have "High-placing Greninja in Japan" taken off from my entry. I didn't make it out of pools at the last Sumabato nor did I at an Umebura back in November (that's two out of the four tourneys I've been to). With many of the good Greninjas advancing onto the more technical aspects of...

Not sure if there's really a reason to be approaching Rosa to begin with unless you're at some huge deficit, but I think it should be kept in mind that Rosalina gets 0 benefit from pulling in shuriken since we can just toss another one out afterward, forcing her to either shield or GP again. She...

Sorry if this sounds pretentious, but there are quite a few things you do need to work on. Firstly, Greninja isn't a pocket character for reasons I already explained. Either you put the time into him for at least a couple MUs or you're better off with your main. Secondly, stop using Shadow Sneak...

Footstool is good when you can get it, but I feel like there might be situations where you're too far away when the shuriken hits to get the footstool but can still get this, and on fastfallers especially, they might default to a ground footstool if you try one out of FC shuriken unless...

Honestly, Greninja maaaaay gain a slight advantage against Rosalina with our Fair being more flexible. I could see it being a factor in pushing us slightly over the edge in a few of our other even MUs, too. Can't wait to really be able to explore things after I get back (FG and tourneys are...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think there's a difference between underdeveloped and overlooked. In Greninja's case, while I feel he's certainly overlooked by a lot of the community, the sheer amount of combos, footstool tech, and options players, as few as there are, have found for him are...

Maaaan, SHFF Fairs feel so smooth now, and perfect pivot standing grab is actually worth something. Why'd they have to make Greninja so much more fun to play right before Pokken comes out? Was gonna take a break from Smash for that game, but now, I'm not sure if I want to. Not to mention that...

Just wanted to drop in and say that today is a good day for us. Sheik gets nerfed (needle range is now shuriken range, and it seems harder for us to get caught by repeated Fairs), our Fair gets made even safer for no reason (SHFFing it consecutively looks super scary now), and I just figured out...

So, after some research, I determined the exact percents for when Greninja can escape Sheik's Uair. In terms of actually escaping it, it must be after the 3rd hit, and you have about a three frames window (would appreciate if someone could confirm the length of this window), starting the frame...

Welcome to the boards, BlackGreninjaPlayer! Happy to have you participating! Hope you can be a bit more active than I've been lately haha. Also, no shame in loving frogs =x Greninja being a frog is the entire reason why I mained him! I could probably go on for hours about why I love frogs lol...
