Aerial Attacks

Button(s)	Description/notes

Backwards +	He swings his feet behind him. Somewhat fast, decent range, sends enemies sideways.

Special Attacks

Button(s)	Attack	Description/notes
	Megavitamins	Doc throws a pill out in front of him. The pill bounces on the ground, slowly advancing forward. One of the best projectiles, it's typical to throw this out and follow behind it. Like most projectiles it does have some lag associated with it, so use at a distance only.
+	Super Jump Punch	Doc uppercuts an enemy, hitting multiple times. Good for recovery and clearing out wireframes, bad for any real use.
+	Dr. Tornado	Doc spins around rapidly, sending enemies every which way. Horrible move. But you can tap B rapidly for height when recovering.
Forward +	Super Sheet	Doc swings a white sheet in front of him. During the majority of the move, projectiles that hit him will instead be reflected. If an enemy is hit with the sheet, they will reverse direction; Good for ledge-guarding against many different up+B moves.

Throws

Button(s)	Description/notes
	He throws the opponent on the ground, who then bounces up.
Forward	Doc swings around once and throws the enemy forward.
	Doc simply throws the enemy up.
Back	Doc swings around several times, throwing the enemy behind him. A respectable kill move.

Advanced Techniques

Doc’s Up-B Cancel

Doctor Mario can actually cancel his Up-B. After you press Up B (Up and to the Right preferably), to cancel it, quickly tap in the opposite control stick direction. If you succeed it will be very noticeable, just keep practicing because this is one of those things that will take time to master. The initial control stick direction is BARELY above where it would be for the cape. Then you have 4 frames to move straight across the analog. Much easier to do against a target because of the hitlag. Try in slow motion in practice mode until you get the movements down.
