[edit | edit source]| Button(s) | Attack | Description/notes |
|---|---|---|
| B | Ice Throw | The Climbers sling small glaciers before them. When both Climbers are together, two glaciers are thrown. If foes are caught by the hammers when throwing the hunks of ice, the can get damage too. |
| Up + B | Belay | Popo slings Nana overhead, and she pulls him after her. If Nana hits a foe when slung, the foe takes damage. |
| Down + B | Blizzard | Popo blows ice before him, and Nana shoots ice behind her. This attack causes minimal damage but has the chance of freezing your enemy temporarily. |
| Forward + B | Squall Hammer | The Climbers swing their hammers in a circle, hitting foes a number of times. If you tap the B button fast when doing this, they will gain a little height, but be wary that your 3rd jump is eliminated no matter what when using this move. |
