Waterfall (たきのぼり Taki Nobori, Waterfall Climb) is Squirtle's up special move. A torrent of water appears that Squirtle "surfs" on top of. The attack does multiple hits with minor knockback towards the end. It is difficult to interrupt as a recovery move, as the hitbox is large, disjointed, and directly in front of Squirtle. The movement direction of the attack can be slightly altered with the control stick to be more vertical or more horizontal.
It returns in Super Smash Bros. 4 as Greninja's up special move.
Description from the Instruction Booklet
Scramble diagonally up on a raging water torrent. Very useful as a recovery technique.
Origin
Waterfall was introduced in Generation I and was formerly a signature move of the Goldeen evolution line. Starting in Generation II, Waterfall is an HM (Hidden Machine) that allows a Pokémon to learn the move, which, when used outside of battle, allows the player to go up and down waterfalls. Prior to Generation V, Waterfall was HM07 and HM05 since Generation V and on. In battle, it is a physical Water-type attack since Generation IV with an above-average base power of 80, 100% accuracy, 15 PP, and (starting in Generation IV) a 20% chance of causing the target to flinch.
