Dash

Mario dashing.

Dashing is a form of ground movement faster than walking. It is performed by tapping sideways on the control stick. The player's character enters his or her initial dash animation and then proceeds to his or her running animation. In Brawl, a character attempting to dash can Prat Fall instead. The bunny hood item increases a character's running speed.
