'''Secret Ninja Attack''' ({{ja|忍びの秘奥義|Shinobi no Hiōgi}}, ''The Shinobi's Hidden Secret''), is [[Greninja]]'s [[Final Smash]].

==Overview==
[[File:Ash-GreninjaFS.png|thumb|left|Ash-Greninja in ''Ultimate''.]]
In this Final Smash, [[Greninja]] sends one or more foes airborne by using {{iw|bulbapedia|Mat Block|move}}: hitting them with a {{s|wikipedia|tatami}}, then overwhelms its opponent with slashes, kicks, and palm strikes in front of the moon. Greninja then readies a final blow to [[meteor smash]] the foe. 
It is similar to Ike's [[Great Aether]].

The Final Smash deals a total of 52% damage: 2% if the opponent(s) are caught by the Mat Block, 5% for the Mat Block flip, 2% for each rapid attack, and 15% for the final blow.

Aside from the initial Mat Block, the attack is visually identical to [[Zoroark]]'s Fury Swipes attack; however, the Secret Ninja Attack deals significantly more damage, and the final blow cannot be [[tech]]ed (except in ''Ultimate'').

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Greninja transforms into Ash-Greninja for the Final Smash.

==Origin==
[[File:Matblock.jpg|thumb|left|Mat Block as it appears in ''Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire''.]]
[[File:Night Slash VI.png|thumb|Night Slash as it appears in ''Pokémon X & Y''.]]
Greninja activates this move by striking downward at a tatami, a type of mat, to flip it upward and hit opponents, referencing {{iw|bulbapedia|Mat Block|move}} (known in Japan as Tatami Flip), formerly one of its {{iw|bulbapedia|signature move}}s in the ''Pokémon'' games. Mat Block possesses the ability to defend the user's side of the field from all attacks used after it; however, unlike other protective moves, it does not possess increased priority and thus will fail if used last in the turn. It is also only able to be used the first turn after Greninja enters the field; at all other times, it will fail. While not named after it, the move's overall aesthetics share thematic similarities with {{iw|bulbapedia|Night Slash|move}}, a move Greninja can learn by leveling up in the games.

===Ash-Greninja===
[[File:Ash-GreninjaDEMO.jpg|thumb|150px|Greninja transforming into Ash-Greninja in the ''Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version''.]]
In the Pokémon anime, upon his final evolution, {{iw|bulbapedia|Ash Ketchum}}'s [[bulbapedia:Ash's Greninja|Greninja]] obtained a unique ability called {{iw|bulbapedia|Bond Phenomenon}}. It is similar to Mega Evolution but relies on being in sync with Ash rather than a Mega Stone. This transformation caused Greninja to temporarily take on a design based on Ash and his Kalos outfit, as well as producing a psychic bond with Ash. 
 
The transformation later appeared in the main series games with a special Greninja with {{iw|bulbapedia|Battle Bond}} only obtainable through the [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version|''Sun'' and ''Moon'' demo]], where the transformation would activate upon defeating an opponent directly. Ash-Greninja has higher base stats than regular Greninja and if Ash-Greninja uses Water Shuriken, the move's power becomes 20 (rather than the usual 15) and it always hits three times.  The transformation would later be removed in ''Pokémon Scarlet and Violet'' with Battle Bond only boosting Greninja's attack, special attack and speed. Ash-Greninja is referenced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Nemona}}'s house as a painting however.

==Trivia==
*In stages with platforms that reside at high altitudes, such as [[Palutena's Temple]], characters not caught in the Final Smash are able to show up in the animation. These characters are fully mobile and do not appear as silhouettes, unlike Greninja and any opponents it caught.
*Although the trophy depicts a full moon, the final smash actually only uses a graphic of half of the moon, which can be seen by pausing and moving the camera (Wii U only). In the 3DS, more of the moon is visible when the camera is focused on Greninja, but one can't see where the moon ends in normal gameplay.
*Secret Ninja Attack is almost a 1:1 match with Blazblue Character Valkenhayn R. Hellsing's Astral Heat, "Blut Vollmond." The only difference is the launcher. While Greninja uses a tatami mat to launch its foe, Valkenhayn strikes them with a reverse flash kick. The tatami mat, however, is likely a reference to Guilty Gear Character Baiken's special attack, "Tatami Gaeshi." Both Characters are Arc System Works property, so it is likely that the intent was to reference both of these characters together.
