Giant Punch

Giant Punch (), previously referred to as Primate Punch (), is 's neutral special move in Super Smash Flash 2.
== Overview ==
When performed, Donkey Kong winds up his fist to charge up a punch, and then releases it upon pressing the input again. When the attack is fully charged, Donkey Kong lets out puffs of smoke to indicate a full charge. While an uncharged Giant Punch deals 13% damage (10% in midair) with decent knockback, a fully charged Giant Punch is stronger than most attacks in the game, dealing 27% damage (24% in midair) with massive knockback. At full charge, the attack also has enough priority to cancel most, if not all the fully charged smash attacks in the game. Also, when fully charged, the move gives Donkey Kong much knockback resistance so that the attack would not be easily interrupted.
When using this move at full charge, Donkey Kong can cancel this move at any point prior to the punch by shielding.
== Origin ==
Giant Punch may have been inspired by the ending of , where Donkey Kong frees himself and punches Kaptain K. Rool off Crocodile Island and into a river of sharks. Also, the animation of Giant Punch is remarkably similar to a punch Donkey Kong preforms in the cartoon episode, Bad Hair Day.
