Dr. Mario does an out-stretched arm spin and ends it with a stronger hit via an open-body bash. Dr. Mario is able to hover in the air when using this attack by repeatedly tapping the B Button. The move can gather vertical height ''once'' between landings if it is used and mashed while ascending (at the start of a double jump, for instance).

Dr. Tornado has the same effect as Mario Tornado, except that it is slightly stronger in terms of damage, has a lighter pull (and thus is able to rack up more hits if spaced properly), covers marginally less recovery distance, and the final attack sends opponents flying horizontally rather than vertically. Additionally, Dr. Mario doesn't yell "Yahoo!" or "Yee-haw!" when performing the attack, unlike Mario. In ''[[SSB4]]'' and ''[[Ultimate]]'', he will simply make a quiet grunt, akin to Luigi Cyclone from ''[[Brawl]]'' onward, being identical to the one Mario uses for [[F.L.U.D.D.]] In ''Melee'', the move has transcendent priority on all but the last hit.

In ''Smash 4'', Dr. Tornado deals less damage but has more knockback on the last hit, giving it decent KO potential at high percents. It is also harder to break out of and has a much longer duration, while also having more range at startup. It has slightly more startup than before but is noticeably easier to mash, making it easier to use for recovery. It has more horizontal recovery distance but has significantly less vertical distance. It now also has transcendent priority on the last hit, but not on the looping hits.
