[[File:SSBMWebsiteCaptainFalcon4.jpg|thumb|Falcon Punch in ''Melee''.]]
Captain Falcon's Neutral special in SSBM is his classic move, the Falcon Punch. After a couple seconds of charging the move up, Captain Falcon unleashes a powerful, flaming punch in the shape of a falcon. The attack sends enemies flying upon contact, but leaves Captain Falcon vulnerable to certain attacks.
Captain Falcon's neutral special in ''Melee'' is [[Falcon Punch]]. After about a second (52 frames) of charging the move up, Captain Falcon unleashes a powerful, flaming punch in the shape of a falcon. The attack sends enemies flying upon contact, but leaves Captain Falcon vulnerable to certain attacks.
{{competitive expertise}}
This attack is very rarely used in competitive situations. Due to the high starting and end lag, it is very predictable and easily punished by experienced players. However, it is an integral part to the [[Sacred Combo]], and is sometimes used in "hard read" situations.
{{technical data}}
 
Slower than in the last game, Falcon Punch has three different hitboxes, dependent on distance. When it is used in the air, all hitboxes deal slightly higher knockback and the sweetspots are larger.
