Falcon Dive is Captain Falcon's Up B attack. This attack has low priority and can act like a throw if it hits an opponent. The attack sets the opponent on fire. If a hit is scored, the attack can be used again. The atack goes higher than Ganondorf's, but falls faster and is harder to sweetspot with. It can grab a ledge backwards at the peak height. Falcon dive may work as a Meteor Smash if used on an opponent near the bottom of a solid ledge. If you grab onto the opponent at the peak of Falcon Dive's duration, knockback is improved. In Melee, this move can not grab an opponent that is hanging onto the ledge. In Brawl, this move cannot break Smash Balls but it is capable of destroying targets in Target Smash!! when the body comes in contact with the target.

In the Original SSB game, the Falcon Dive restores an opponent's midair jump. Template:Captain Falcon Special Moves
