Gerald's jab combo is one of the slowest in the game, though it's disjoint and range make up for this somewhat. Can sometimes be useful to force teeter on a shielding opponent at the ledge.

Gerald spins a basketball on his finger while jumping through the air, how could one kid be so cool??? This is one of the best moves on Gerald's kit and can often be chained into itself a time or two after another starter like down tilt, or just to harass opponents standing above you. Can be useful for dragdown combos or ladder combos alike. At very high percents it can even kill off the top. There's a hitbox on the ball and on the round part of Gerald's head, so it's not too hard to land even if you'll still suffer from people falling out of the multihits on occation.

4-12% EX:12%	6 charge, 6 release (While charging), 14 for full charge release (stored charge)	0-0	0	-0
Gerald spins his arm around while holding a baseball. Press the Special button again to throw it. This move is a charged projectile, and you can cancel the charge with shield to store it for later. Gerald will gain purple particle effects while charging to indicate he's at full charge. The ball will fly forward with a downward arc, with more charge making it fly further out. It can be useful for sniping people offstage at any amount of charge. EX: The ball flies forward with greater damage and trajectory even with no charge. Using Slime with any amount of charge stored will throw out two projectiles, one of a lower charge level than what you were at. Both do the maximum of 12%. Note that EX cannot be activated while Gerald is charging.

Gerald on the Skate

Damage	Startup	Active Frames	Total Frames	Safety
varies, see below	0	0-0	0	-0
Gerald hops onto his skateboard, which changes his Special attacks. This puts Gerald into a skateboarding state where he accelerates and moves considerably faster. Jumping takes him out of it, but it does not restore his double jump if it's already used. Shield cancels the stance with a little bit of endlag before you can act again, and Gerald can freely jump out of it to perform normal air actions otherwise if he hasn't used his extra jump. Up Special causes Gerald to do a handstand, deals 12% and launches enemies upward. Hitstun lasts an eternity so it's not a bad way to try and start an up-air combo or something. A word of caution: currently using this move will lock you out of using your regular up-special until you've landed on the ground again, meaning using this off-stage can be a death sentence. Good chance this gets patched down the line but be very careful with this.(Current patch as of writing: 1.0.3.) Neutral Special causes Gerald to do a kickflip, dealing 7% and slightly slowing him down. Doing this in the air slows Gerald's vertical descent, allowing him to mix up his recovery to go high. Down Special causes Gerald to come to a stop and spin around on the board before dismounting it and returning to normal movement. Does about 15% if all hits connect. If done in midair, Gerald will come to a quick horozontal stop while dropping down, allowing you to descend with a hitbox. It's not very powerful but it is an excellent tool for recovering high especially on flat stages like Jellyfish Fields or Royal Woods Cemetary/Pariah's Keep EX: Gerald darts forward a small distance before doing his down special spin move. Does identical damage to the regular variant.

Gerald pulls out one of four special items. Select the item to use with the stick. Note that Frisbee and Ping Pong Racket are based on the direction Gerald is facing. Forward will always be Ping Pong Racket, back will always be Frisbee. Pressing Special again with the menu up will automatically use whatever was the last manual-input item Gerald used. Doing this will do nothing if Gerald has not used a menu item since the start of the match. Basketball: Thrown upwards and bounces if it touches the ground. Does 10%. Bounces twice before disappearing on the third landing. Good for general pressure, there's pretty much never a bad time to have one out. Frisbee: Comes back after being thrown. Does 8%. Face away from the opponent before throwing this and then approach alongside it for extra pressure. Ping Pong Racket: Reflects projectiles. Does 10% with a paddle whack. Useful as a simple easy-to-land solution to projectile spam. The actual paddle swing does 10% damage but has essentially no launch power even at 999%. Wack-O Watch: Strong and durable projectile, limited edition. Does 20% and has considerable kill power. Use these sparingly, Gerald only gets 5 per stock and has no way to replenish them otherwise. That being said, if you're already at high percent they're a cheap way to make the opponent wary and perhaps get some extra damage before the opponent finally scores a kill. Note that Wack-O Watches do not have infinite range. From the ledge, they'll reach slightly more than halfway across larger competitive stage variants like Harmonic Convergence or Miracle City Volcano. EX: Boombox: Gerald skips the menu and chucks an entire boombox through the air in a fairly far-reaching arc. Does 20% and has considerable power. These are comparable to Wack-O watches in terms of raw power. Landing either on an off-stage opponent can seal a stock right then and there, so it's not a bad use of Slime. The angle can be tricky, though.

All-STAR Dunk

2% initial hit 1% rising hits 7$ dunk	5	6-8, 13-54	0	-0
Gerald rises up while dribbling, finishing his attack with a powerful dunk! Gerald's main recovery move. The hitboxes leave Gerald somewhat vulnerable from above, so be careful. Recovering high or slime cancelling to perform an aerial might help. The move has active hitboxes throughout it's ascent, so don't be afraid to use it to rise through an opponent. The final hit is a fairly powerful spike that can kill at high percents, and the move can be slime canceled into AirN.Charge (Save Mighty Pete) as a fairly reliable kill confirm. EX: The move rises higher and faster in the same length of time. Damage and launch power is unaffected.

Gerald tells the bone-chilling tale of a bride who lost it all and chose to seek revenge, summoning the wrath of the Ghost Bride to cut down whatever poor nickelodeon character you happen to be fighting. Gerald tends to want to use his Slime in other areas like improving his less-than-stellar recovery or certain kill confirms, so using this to secure a kill or as an invincible reversal might not be the best choice if you can help it.
