Sidesteps are performed by pressing the 
or 
buttons and allow the player to circle the opponent, moving in the z-axis of the game. In addition to the basic standing sidestep, starting in GNT4 and all future games, running sidesteps can be performed while in the run animation. In the GameCube GNT games, steps towards the camera and steps away. In all Wii games, steps to the character's left and steps to the right.
Usage
The exact properties of sidesteps change game to game, though in general there are about three frames of sidestep followed by the character quickly repositioning in the z-axis for a few frames, followed by a longer period of recovery. Sidesteps have utility in a number of ways:
- To escape from block strings
- To escape from backturned string hits
- Used after the opponent jumps, a sidestep will move the player out of the line of attack of their opponent while re-aligning them if they wish to attempt a jump landing punish.
- In GNT4 forward, the starting invincibility frames of sidesteps can be used to avoid an otherwise unblockable wake-up-super (WUS).
