Angelic Missile (人間ミサイル, Human Missile) is one of Palutena's alternate side special moves in Super Smash Bros. 4.

OverviewEdit

After a brief charge period, Palutena launches herself horizontally while spinning. Any opponent hit by this move will be sent flying, but it's often easy to avoid, due to its long start-up, and it can even be interrupted by any attack that causes flinching, regardless of damage dealt.

This move is similar to Charizard's Flare Blitz, Luigi's Green Missile and Pikachu's Skull Bash, except it can't be charged, and can as well help Palutena in horizontal recovery.
