Universe	Fire Emblem

Torrential Roar (激流咆, Raging Stream Howl) is Corrin's Final Smash. Male Corrin transforms into his dragon form and slams the ground while saying "Out of the way!" while female Corrin will say "This ends here!", causing a shockwave to surround him. Any opponents hit by the attack will get transported to a mountain-filled area, where Corrin then strikes them with a large whirlpool.

The Final Smash deals a total of 40% damage—5% from the initial shockwave, and 35% from the resultant whirlpool.

Origin

Similarly to Ike's Great Aether, this move is unique to the Super Smash Bros. series, never making any appearance in Fire Emblem. However, this move may hold some inspiration from Azura, the main female protagonist in Fire Emblem Fates, who has the ability to use hydrokinesis to great lengths with the power of her necklace. This ability is notable in a cutscene from both the Birthright and Conquest path, where she used her water manipulation skills to exorcise the evil force controlling King Garon. It may also be related to Corrin's father Anankos' ability to manipulate water, which apparently Corrin inherited, as in his dragon form, water flows from his feet during the cinematic battle of Fire Emblem: Fates.

Trophy description

Torrential Roar trophy in for Wii U.

Corrin blasts two columns of light on either side. If one hits an enemy, Corrin transforms into a fearsome dragon and unleashes a maelstrom that launches anyone unlucky enough to be caught. The light columns shoot straight up for a short moment, so using this move high up after knocking or throwing opponents overhead is very effective!
