Rock Smash is Charizard's Side Special attack. Charizard takes a rock and headbutts it. The force of the headbutt has high knockback and very high damage. After this portion of the attack, the rock shatters into several smaller pieces that fly forward in a spread effect, dealing small amounts of damage. The attack is a powerful, but slow finisher in normal matches. It is a recommended move against bosses who do not make any effort to dodge the slow attack. In addition, since bosses are unaffected by knockback, this means every possible hitbox will connect, dealing massive damage, whereas playable characters will often be knocked out of range by the initial blow. Similarly, this means it is one of the few moves that can break a Smash Ball in one. As the smash ball can not dodge, it takes the full 43% damage, and breaks.
