Up Special Moves

The Up Special Move is a Special Move genus in the Super Smash Bros. franchise. They serve as a form of Recovery. As their name implies, Up Specials trigger when you tilt the control stick upward while hitting the Special Move button. Often, the character goes up, but some can be aimed.. Examples: Mario performs a rising uppercut. Fox McCloud catches fire and charges toward the direction inputted.

Jigglypuff is the only fighter that does not recover using their Up Special, as hers is Sing, and she does not rise at all while singing.
