Been a while coming, and when this character was announced we were told what some of it’s special moves would be, today we’ve been shown them. Read on for more!
Diddy’s got the best jungle technology available, and he makes use of it well.

<strong>Neutral Special</strong>
Peanut popguns: He fires in spurts. f he shoots you, it’s gonna hurt. You can hold down B to fire more shots, getting faster, but hold them too long and your gun goes up in smoke. Also, the peanut shells break on impact and occasionally drop apeanut which can be eaten for minor HP recovery.

<strong>Up Special</strong>
Rocketbarrel Boost: If you hold B when using this attack, it charges up and flies higher. This attack is also able to be angled while charging.

Of note is if Diddy gets hit during this the jetpack goes off without him. This can aparently happen sometimes without interference too.
