It works as one, but it should not be used as much as Don’s other anti-airs due to its mediocre priority and long duration. This gets much more use in the corner because of its high hitbox.

	\|description=In terms of a fireball, Ground Claw is mediocre. It's on the slow side, its startup leaves a lot to be desired, and Don cannot combo into it whatsoever. A fireball is still a fireball though, and it is not without its strengths. It's faster than Leo's on recovery, does a decent amount of stun, and because of its taller hitbox, works as a situational anti-air. However, because of its aforementioned weaknesses you should only really use it up-close on the opponent's knock-down, and when you're full screen away. Keep in mind that during ground Claw's active frames, most of Don's Arm is invulnerable, and the Bo is completely invincible.		\|description=In terms of a fireball, Ground Claw is mediocre.

	\|description=An interesting "get off me" attack that is best used as a reversal. It's one of Don's best answers to jump-ins as ~~it's~~ invincibility frames allow Don to avoid the jumping normal and counter the landing. Although it is capable of hurting the opponent and does chip damage, you should almost primarily use this for ~~it's~~ invulnerable frames as it is fairly lackluster as an attack.

			Heavy Bo Thrust can be done by simply doing the inputs LP, HP, HP. This makes it safer to do in neutral as there's no risk of whiffing heavy punch.

	Donatello is probably the strangest ~~“nornmal”~~ character in Tournament Fighters. It certainly feels like he just had moves thrown onto him just to complete the character. Leo is inspired by Ryu, Raph by Bison, Mike by Blanka (Or really just a charge shoto) and Don is like "Oh hey, we dont have E. Honda and some Chun li in there, slap their moves on this last one." Even his normals feel like a hybridization of the other three turtles. Don was probably made last of the quartet and they just "plugged and fit" his moves. He is really an enigma with no clear archetype. A good understanding of neutral and when to use his fantastic pokes is required to fully take advantage of this character. Don is considered the third best turtle of the four. He excels in up-close combat, but generally struggles from full screen. Not unlike the other turtles, Don’s general game plan depends on the matchup, but he almost always wants to get in and harass. Most of his harassment includes the use of his strong standing HP, quick crouching LK, and Bo Thrust while simultaneously building meter for his awesome super to either get free chip, or turn the tide of the match.

Since it can be canceled into backflip, this move works great as a meter builder. This is also one of Don's best up-close pokes. Use this instead of standing heavy if you want to apply pressure safely.		\|description=Does the same damage as Leo's and Raph's cr.lk, while having more reach than Leo's.
