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 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 + moves.

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.
