Sidestepping

Sidestepping, also known as spot dodging or ground dodging, is a defensive action in Super Smash Flash 2 and Fraymakers that grants the player intangibility on the ground momentarily. It is performed by pressing down while shielding when on the ground and is primarily used to dodge attacks. However, there is also a period before and after the intangibility frames in which the player is vulnerable to attacks. While sidestepping, the player cannot perform any actions until it ends.
