Trick Shot
The Trick Shot is a new element in Mario Tennis Aces when playing a game. They increase the player's energy significantly, but are a risky manoeuvre. The greater the risk, the greater the reward. If the player struggles, they may waste their energy, or lose a point. Each character has their forward/backward Trick Shot and their side Trick Shot.
Controls
There are two ways the player can perform this useful trick. Method 1: Hit the ball whilst using the Right Circle Stick. Method 2: Press the top button/X twice whilst moving in the direction the player wants to go.
List of Trick Shots
Mario
Vault: Mario's side Trick Shot. He jumps in the air doing a back flip, and hits the ball. Hand Flip: Mario's forward/backward Trick Shot. He jumps backwards and does a 360 on his hand, hitting the ball.
Peach
Ribbon Fling: Peach's side Trick Shot. She runs to the side, and flicks up her tennis racket. She performs a kart wheel, catches the tennis racket and hits the ball. Twirl: Peach's forward/backward Trick Shot. She steps forward/backward, and performs a twirl (around 720 turn). At this time, she hits the ball if the player times it well.
