The '''down aerial''' ({{ja|下空中攻撃|Shita kūchū kōgeki}}, ''Down/lower/under midair attack''; commonly abbreviated as '''down air''', '''dair''' or '''D-Air''' and referred to as '''AttackAirLw''' in ''Melee''{{'}}s {{SSBM|Debug Menu}} and internal ''Brawl'' files) is an [[aerial attack]] that is performed in midair by pressing the attack button and tilting the [[Control Stick]] downwards. Its official term varies between titles, where it is known as a '''down midair attack''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and a '''down air attack''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Many of these moves are [[meteor smash]]es and some of these moves can be either [[stall-then-fall]]s or [[Drill (archetype)|drill]]s as well.

All down aerials in ''Super Smash Bros.'' are spikes, with the exception of Pikachu's and Link's. Many of the spikes are [[Drill (archetype)|drills]], and ''SSB'' is notable for allowing characters to [[DI]] out of them fairly easily.
