Here is a graphical representation of all the special moves for HF.
All the moves are for facing to the right. When used in a phrase,
the symbol "|" means or. The word beg. is beginning. The charge times
shown are relative to the game's speed. So, a 2 second charge on CE is
longer than on HF. The words in parentheses show which attribute of
