The '''Dash Attack''', also known as the '''Wario Attack''', is a [[Special Move]] frequently used by [[Wario]] that first appeared in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'' and has since then appeared in many games featuring Wario, most prominently in the ''[[Wario Land (series)|Wario Land]]'' series. Its main purpose is to attack enemies, but it can also be used to hit switches or break open treasure chests and [[Block]]s.

It consists of him charging at high speed while ramming everything on his path using his powerful shoulders. The move first appeared in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'', and has most prominently appeared in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]]. The main purpose of the attack is damaging enemies, but it can also hit switches or break open [[treasure chest]]s and [[block]]s.


[[Roy|Roy Koopa]] is shown to perform a similar attack in his sprites for ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' as well as in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', [[Baby DK]] likewise performs a [[DK Dash Attack|similar move]].
==History==
==History==
===''Wario Land'' series===
===''[[Wario Land (series)|Wario Land series]]===
This move is a simple attack in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'']] games; it can be used to attack one enemy at a time or to destroy [[block]]s, and normally allows Wario to move faster than running. [[Jump]]ing in the middle of this attack changes it into a '''Jump Attack''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Wario Land 4'' instruction booklet|page=9|date=2001|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> which ends upon landing or turning around. The [[cave master]] from ''[[Wario Land II]]'' makes use of a similar attack when he is confronted by Wario in order to knock him out of the arena, forcing Wario to restart the battle; in turn, Wario must attack the cave master the same way three times to claim victory. In ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', it can be upgraded to break harder blocks and attack several enemies at once. ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' was the first game to introduce the name "Dash Attack" (and subsequently its aerial variant '''Jumping Dash Attack'''),<ref>{{cite|title=''Wario Land 4'' instruction booklet|page=10|date=2001|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> however, unlike its contemporary usage, this term was used to describe a more powerful variant of the same ability where Wario quickly rushes as his speed greatly increases; then, he is able to run into multiple blocks and enemies without stopping. He is also able to break the more solid, blue blocks. His regular attack is also present, but compared to this "Dash Attack", it is less powerful and Wario bounces back against blocks. To avoid future confusion in later games, the name Dash Attack was given to Wario's regular attack, with the original "Dash Attack" move getting removed, but also giving Wario different alternatives to perform similar moves like the [[Max Fastosity Dasherator]]s seen in ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]''.
The move is a simple attack in these games; it can be used to attack one enemy at a time or to destroy [[block]]s. In ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', it can be upgraded to break harder blocks and attack several enemies at once.


===''Wario's Woods''===
===''[[Wario World]]===
In ''[[Wario's Woods]]'', when [[Toad]] takes time in a round, [[Wario]] will temporarily take the place of [[Birdo]] and perform an attack periodically, knocking the [[Thwomp#Wario's Woods|ceiling]] a step downwards.
In this game, the Dash Attack makes [[Wario]] take off in a burst of speed when the player presses the R Button. This is handy for quickly moving around or barreling through enemies. Another move, coupling a Dash with a [[Wario Punch]], can be executed by pressing, holding, and releasing the B Button.


===''Wario World''===
===''[[WarioWare]]'' series===
[[File:WW Dash Attack screenshot.png|thumb|Wario using Dash Attack toward a large Magon in ''Wario World'']]
In the WarioWare games, the attack is used in some microgames, for example to enable Wario to break through walls to escape an avalanche of gold and treasure.
In ''[[Wario World]]'', the Dash Attack makes [[Wario]] take off in a burst of speed when the player presses the {{button|gcn|R}} Button. This is handy for quickly moving around or barreling through enemies. Another move, coupling a Dash Attack with a [[punch]], can be executed by pressing, holding, and releasing the {{button|gcn|B}} Button.


===''WarioWare'' series===
===''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]===
In the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' games, the Dash Attack appears in a few microgames referencing the ''Wario Land'' games, for example, in [[Loot Scoot]], it enables Wario to break through walls and repel mummies to escape an avalanche of gold and treasure; another example is found in a microgame simply titled  [[Wario Land (WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase)|Wario Land]] (specifically based on ''Wario Land 4'') where Wario must use the Dash Attack to successfully take out a [[Spear-Mask]] while avoiding its front spear. In ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'', the Dash Attack is Wario's main gameplay mechanic. Performed by pressing {{button|switch|a}}, it can be used in microgames to push and break objects.
The attack returns in ''Wario: Master of Disguise'', but only [[Thief Wario]] can use it. Unlike in past platformers featuring the move, Wario does not rush forward while executing it.


===''Wario: Master of Disguise''===
===''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series===
In ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]'', [[Thief Wario]] can use a short-ranged Dash Attack. Unlike in past platformers featuring the move, Wario immediately returns in place after executing it.
====''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''====
The attack appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as one of Wario's [[Smash Attack]]s. Like in ''Wario: Master of Disguise'', he stays in one spot while executing it (unless in his [[Wario-Man]] form).
==Wario's Woods==
[[File:Wario's Woods005.png|100px|right|Dash Attack, As Seen In SNES Title Screen]].
Dash Attack Is Done By [[Wario]]. Dash Attack Makes [[Thwomp|ceiling]] To Fall On [[Toad|Mushroom Retainer]].


===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
==Trivia==
In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], the Dash Attack appears as Wario's forward smash attack in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and like in ''Wario: Master of Disguise'', Wario stays in one spot while executing it, unless he is in his [[Wario-Man]] form. The move returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', which calls it '''Shoulder Tackle''' in the [[smashwiki:Tips|tips]], but was aptly made his [[smashwiki:Dash attack|dash attack]]; for this game, the move behaves more similarly to the Dash Attack from the ''Wario Land'' games, covering a longer distance.
*Wario's Dash Attack doesn't make Twhomp fall (sometimes). When Wario's timer is about to end and Wario is doing '''Dash Attack''', it will '''NOT''' affect [[Thwomp|ceiling]].
