DESPERATIONS from Joe Higashi
All the characters in the ART OF FIGHTING team have 2 desperations. One is the big fireball done with F-B-DB-D-DF-F-P. In the manual only Robert has this one listed, so the missing special for him is D-DF-F-DF-D-DB-B-P. The other two (Yuri and Ryo) have their own special listed in the manual "regularly" ;)
RALF of the Ikari team has a second special : you can do it with the combo D-DF-F-DF-D-DB-B-K
The specials of the characters KIM and ATHENA may be done while jumping. You can "charge" the specials of the characters KYO, ATHENA and KASUMI.
