Pseudo wavedash

Pseudo wavedashing is a technique in Super Smash Flash 2 that allows the character to slide a short distance on the ground. It gets its name from wavedashing, a technique from Super Smash Bros. Melee that is performed by air dodging diagonally into the ground, also causing the character to slide on the ground. The "pseudo" part on the name refers to the fact that the player doesn't need to air dodge in order to perform this move but by other means. It is not possible to perform this technique in the original Super Smash Flash.

Characters who can pseudo wavedash

 * : He has a few options to pseudo wavedash. The most easiest method is to short hop a Spin Dash. You need a second jump button in order to perform this technique. First you perform Spin Dash in the air and when you land; hold down the second jump button. The longer you hold the charge; the more distance you will cover. When you are ready let go of both the special button and second jump button at the same time. This has to be frame perfect in order for the technique to work correctly.
 * : He has to short hop a forward aerial close to the ground and he will slide across the ground a little. Due to his traction; it is a short, but fast wavedash that can help with his poor mobility and can help with follow ups.
 * : He can do a pseudo wavedash move called by the Smash community the "Dragonic Reverse". This can be done by canceling the double jump animation with an attack close to the ground. He was able to perform this in Brawl as well and has to be frame perfect. Yoshi can also perform a pseudo wavedash if uses Egg Throw when he is about to land on the ground.
 * : He can perform a pseudo wavedash similar how Black Mage performs his. When using a forward aerial close to the ground, the attack will be canceled and Ichigo will slide across the floor a good distance.
 * : Naruto can perform his pseudo wavedash by short hopping and using down air.
 * : Sonic can perform a pseudo wavedash by charging up Spin Dash and going off a platform while initiating his neutral aerial. However, activating neutral aerial close to the ground will halt the momentum. Easiest to perform on Sky Sanctuary Zone.
 * Sora: Sora can perform a pseudo wavedash by short-hopping and then using a Flomotion angled towards the ground.

Trivia

 * The reason Tails is able to perform his pseudo-wavedash is because when he jumps out of Spin Dash; he is considered in the air the same frame you press the special button, but the code that lets him let go of Spin Dash forward is not removed for a couple of frames. In short, Tails is jumping, then Spin Dashing into the ground and landing really fast.
