'''Special Attacks''' are moves that are often featured in [[Dream Event]]s in the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]]. Special Attacks allow characters to perform special moves in events with a variety of beneficial effects, such as powerful hits, high point-scoring moves and bursts of speed. The Attacks are often limited by filling gauges and collecting items. Normally, each character has a unique animation for their special attack, and depending on the event, may also have a unique effect as well. | |||
