Overview
Vegeta effortlessly dodges Pui Pui's kicks
Sonic Sway is a dodge technique used to evade continuous physical attacks. Yamcha uses it against Tien Shinhan in their fight in the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament. It is used by Goku to evade Burter's Mach Attack during their battle on Namek. It is later used by Vegeta to evade all of Pui Pui's attacks while inside Babidi's spaceship to prevent Majin Buu from awakening.
Appearances in Video Games
Sonic Sway was named in the video game Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3. It is triggered by pressing both the guard and Ki buttons at the same time while being attacked by the opponent up close. If the move is successfully triggered, the character will automatically evade all the opponents kicks and punches, and follows up with a great counter attack, knocking the opponent away. After knocking the opponent away, some characters can follow up by teleporting and smashing the opponent into the ground. However, it is possible to dodge the Sonic Sway's final smash.
