'''ARMS''' are weapons worn on a fighter's extendable limbs (also known as [[ARMS (extendable)|ARMS]]), in the same way a boxer wears gloves.

There are many different ARMS available to [[fighters]]; a fighter may have two different ARMS equipped at once and may switch ARMS between rounds of a match. Fighters can charge their ARMS by holding jump, dash, or block. Charging ARMS will, for a short period of time, both increase their attack power, and activate any [[#Attributes|attributes]] they may have. [[Spring Man]] and [[Min Min]] both have abilities which, while active, allow their ARMS to stay permanently charged. | ||

There are seven attributes in [[ARMS (game)|ARMS]]. The attribute of an ARM will kick in after it is charged. When a fighter is hit by an ARM with an attribute, they will undergo a specific status effect, and in all cases except [[Blind]], they will be surrounded by an effect of a color corresponding to that attribute. | |||
