昇龍拳

The Shouryuuken (昇龍拳, "Rising Dragon Fist") is a powerful rising uppercut in the Street Fighter series that is often used to stop aerial attacks, and as a finisher in the case of the super-move variants, which often have the fist wreathed in Ki or flame.

The Shouryuuken is, along with the Hadouken, the signature move of Ryu and Ken, and over the course of the series multiple other characters with various degrees of association with them have also been introduced as users of the technique.
