Specials :GCB:
Neutral Special: Phazon Cannon

Dark Samus uses her arm cannon to fire a scattershot blast of small Phazon Beams that breaks any shield.
Mashing "B" makes her fire the scattershot repeatedly. Hold "B" and she fires a long-ranged Phazon laser.
Dark Samus can fire the Phazon Shrapnel while moving and hovers while firing the Phazon Laser mid-air.
(Origin: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)


Side Special: Phazon Missile
Dark Samus uses her arm cannon to fire a powerful missile that flies across the stage and poisons any opponent.
If held, she aims with a laser scope, then simultaneously fires a set of three homing Phazon Missiles at her target.
Input backwards and Dark Samus fires a faster missile that stuns opponents with a Phazon explosion on contact.
(Origin: MP2: Echoes & MP3: Corruption)


Up Special: Phazon Comet
Dark Samus charges herself up, then uses her thrusters to fly at high speed while she's covered in a sphere of Phazon.
She can choose one of eight directions to propel herself. Any physical/ melee attack can hurt her, but projectiles can't.
If "↑ + B" is inputted while dashing, Dark Samus takes on her Morph Ball form and rolls forward at supersonic speeds.
(Origin: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)


Down Special: Phazon Storm
Dark Samus strikes the ground with her arm cannon, creating a barrier of Phazon lightning bolts around herself.
Phazon Storm electrocutes any opponent that hits it with physical attacks and reflects any projectiles on contact.
If used mid-air, Dark Samus plummets downward while covered in lightning, spawning the barrier upon landing.
(Origin: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)


Shield Special: Dark Echo Split
Dark Samus performs a quick cartwheel and splits in two (via mitosis), creating a temporary duplicate of herself.
The Dark Echo can either act automatically or move in sync with Dark Samus. Input "A + B" to switch it's functions.
Dark Samus can only summon one Dark Echo at a time. It exists for 35 seconds and dies if dealt over 50% damage.
(Origin: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption)


Final Smash: Metroid Prime's Revenge
Dark Samus powers herself up with Phazon, then uses it to temporarily transform into her previous incarnation: The Metroid Prime.
Metroid Prime fires several laser beams from it's large maw, which can be aimed upward or downward to attack any chosen target.
After seven seconds of firing lazer beams, Metroid Prime charges forward at high speed burying or launching and opponent it hits.
