There are also some moves that act similar to meteor smashes, but do not count as them. These attacks are basically known as '''spikes''', and they cannot be meteor canceled nor do they award players with Meteor Smash bonuses. Examples of spikes include Dr. Mario's late up smash (though it only works on grounded opponents), Fox's d-air, Falco's d-air, Marth's d-air (NTSC only, as it is a meteor smash in PAL versions), Roy's tipped up smash, Ganondorf's Wizard's Foot (only in the air), Captain Falcon's d-air (the so-called Nipple spike if hit within the torso region), and Falco's d-air.
