Quartz Spindash

Quartz Spindash is Amethyst's Side special move.
== Description ==
Amethyst curls up into a ball, charges up a spin, and rockets off much like a certain hedgehog. Holding B charges up the dash, increasing the distance and power. Without a full charge, you just get a short burst in the determined direction. At a full charge, Amethyst is surrounded by purple flames, turning her into a fireball for an explosive blow. Pressing B again while you roll has you uncurl, but jumping does a jumping dive attack. In the air, she only does the dive, but can change into the normal version when she hits the ground. Keep in mind that the spin dash only goes one way.
=== Move Origin ===
Quartz soldiers have an innate ability to curl into a ball and roll their bodies around, which is a homage to the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Amethyst uses this ability often to either directly knock into foes or spin around them to trap them with her whip. Amethyst also takes a que from Sonic through a spin dash jump used in When It Rains, referencing the homing attack Sonic uses. Amethyst also used her seldom used pyrokinesis to charge into a fireball in her battle with Jasper in Earthlings.
