Paralysis

Paralysis is an effect that some moves have in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. It is a high amount of hitstun that often holds the opponent in place for a moment, allowing for a chance to attack or grab them. Sometimes it may be paired with an electrical aesthetic effect.
