Vortex

Vortex is 's side special move in Super Smash Flash 2.

Overview
When performed, Rayman reels his fist back and punches forward, creating a yellow tornado that flies forward and quickly disappears. Opponents that make contact with the tornado become trapped in it, causing the tornado to slowly travel forward for a short time before disappearing. The tornado will deal weak damage and knockback to trapped opponents as it disappears, but it also allows Rayman to follow up with his own attack while the opponent is trapped.

Origin
Vortex is a power used by Rayman in Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc. It is temporarily provided by the Laser-Washing Powder green cans and is the first of these powers he acquires in the game. When Rayman acquires this power, the symbol of his chest turns yellow, his hair, torso, shoes and a great part of his gloves turn green, and the base of his shoes, hood and fingers turn red. With this power, Rayman wears a pair of special gloves with red and yellow spiral symbols that turn his fists into whirlwinds, allowing him to throw small tornadoes that can shrink his opponents, making them easier to defeat, and mushrooms that he then can jump on.
