Fox does a feet-first kick forward, with a very similar animation to his {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|forward smash}}, though it's obviously performed in the air instead, and he doesn't move any distance forward while using it. It does 12% damage and moderate knockback, while having decent [[combo]] ability, and being a pretty good [[edgeguarding]] move, despite having below average knockback (it cannot KO reliably onstage even at very high percentages). It can combo into a reverse {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|back aerial}} or a {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|neutral aerial}} at higher percentages (more effective on [[floaty]] characters), as well as being a way to set up ground moves at moderate percentages on characters with fast or close to fast [[falling speed]]s, due to sending opponents on a below average angle; being able to lead into a jab or {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|up tilt}}. Its decent [[range]] also makes it a usable [[spacing]] tool, mostly used out of [[short hop]]s in conjunction with back aerial.

Hitbox of Fox's forward aerial.

Fox does a feet-first kick forward, with a very similar animation to his forward smash, though it's obviously performed in the air instead, and he doesn't move any distance forward while using it. It does 12% damage and moderate knockback, while having decent combo ability, and being a pretty good edgeguarding move, despite having below average knockback (it cannot KO reliably onstage even at very high percentages), as well as pretty high ending lag and landing lag if not Z-cancelled. It can combo into a reverse back aerial or a neutral aerial at higher percentages (more effective on floaty characters), as well as being a way to set up ground moves at moderate percentages on characters with fast or close to fast falling speeds, due to sending opponents on a below average angle; being able to lead into a jab or up tilt. Its decent range also makes it a usable spacing tool, mostly used out of short hops in conjunction with back aerial.
