''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' overhauled the air dodging system entirely, completely removing the ability to perform directional air dodges that are necessary in order to wavedash. Additionally, {{SSBB|Fox}} and {{SSBB|Falco}}'s down specials were altered considerably, as they can no longer be jump-canceled and their damaging hitboxes no longer have instantaneous startup. Fellow ''[[Star Fox (universe)|Star Fox]]'' character {{SSBB|Wolf}}, whose down special is similar to Fox's, does not have the ability to jump cancel it either.
''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' overhauled the air dodging system entirely, completely removing the ability to perform directional air dodges that are necessary in order to wavedash. Additionally, {{SSBB|Fox}} and {{SSBB|Falco}}'s down specials were altered considerably. Fox can now only jump-cancel it after successfully reflecting a projectile, while Falco cannot do so at all. ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' retains the changes made in ''Brawl'', and waveshining remains impossible to perform.


''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' changed {{SSB4|Fox}}'s down special further. He can now jump-cancel it, but only after successfully reflecting a projectile. The air dodge mechanic remains largely unchanged from ''Brawl'', with wavedashing once again being impossible.
''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' changed the air dodging system more significantly, with directional air dodges returning again. This means that wavedashing is now possible again, and it also means that {{SSBU|Fox}} can waveshine once again, albeit only after successfully reflecting a projectile.
 
''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' changed the air dodging system more significantly, with directional air dodges returning again. This means that wavedashing is now possible again. However, {{SSBU|Fox}} and {{SSBU|Wolf}} can only jump-cancel their Reflectors after reflecting a projectile while {{SSBU|Falco}} cannot do it at all, and waveshining remains impossible to perform again.
