Dragon Lunge is still used on the ground, though, but it does allow to stay in the air. But it will obviously allow to stick on slopes, so why not wall?
It'll be interesting to see Dair's reset properties, do we know if other characters with multi-hit moves can use them to reset opponents on landing?
I went and tested all the stall-then-fall dairs with landing hitboxes and none of them had the ability to reset opponents, so forget what I said about Corrin's dair. It probably won't reset either.
What'll be most important about the N-B reset punish IMO will be how much Corrin can charge it before the reset finishes since I think it's pretty obvious that the chomp following the stun will do the most damage with a longer charge since a longer charge means a longer stun.
Ryu's Shoryuken doesn't make him flash for a while after using it but he's still in freefall isn't he? Could be the same case.
Both the paralyzer and the Dragon Fang can charge.

Pinning opponent in the air would look cool as ****.
. The fact that he has something like ZSS's paralyzer really gets me excited 
Can't believe I'm gonna have to wait till February though.
It's hard to say imo; to me it looked like his spear/arm retracted before Roy could hit it.
Nah if you slow it down, Roy's sword def went through the arm and should've hit.
Yeah, it's probably too laggy for followups unless its FAF is right after Corrin changes back, and even then it'd only work at lower percents. That said, I could see it as the damage dealer of his throws, doing ~11% but with no combo potential. I could see it being like Kirby's dthrow in use.
Probably not. It'd likely be overpowered if it did. Seems like it'd be better used to punish poor spacing at midrange, trap landings, or counter low projectiles.
We only ever saw it impale its target when it also stuck into the ground. If it catches someone in the air, it probably just knocks them away.
Awesome, did anyone notice that motion Corrin did with his sword for a brief moment in the uncharged forward smash? It looks like the start of the chainsaw move. I realize people already were thinking the chainsaw move was the charging part of F-smash, but I just wanted to point this out as it seems to support the "hitbox while charging" theory
Well, Bayonetta can counter Mac's KO punch, and both counters work similarly in that the attacks outright don't connect, so probably.
Possibly, although since it seems to have a fairly generous hitbox, I suspect people will still be caught in it regardless, although I suspect like Shulk's counter, it'll be fairly useless in the air due to the bit of delay before it hits.
In the trailer they showed it countering Ness' PK Thunder 2 in the air no problem.
Yeah, but when PKT2 hits someone, all of Ness's momentum stops anyway for a brief moment, so it's one of the few moves that would definitely get hit by it in the air. Not so sure about other stuff.
Even if the counter is a little on the slow side, its sheer reach all around Corrin means that you'd have to have made like Max Range Corrin/Shulk disjointed contact for the counter not to hit you. And that type of reach is hardly in their aerial kits anyways.
Yeah but if the thing is that it doesn't hit Corrin, it wouldn't stop right?
Touché
...that would be nice, I guess, but we know his moveset by now. His UpB is basically Greninja's + hitbox - windbox, his SideB is the lance thing that sticks to people, and his down special is a counter. His As are a combination of his lance, chainsaw sword, and dragon attacks.
