Dodge is a melee attack in Metroid: Other M. As the name suggests, it involves Samus Aran leaping out of the way of an enemy attack.

Samus has previously been seen performing such a move in past games (only in cutscenes). In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Samus is seen dodging shots of Dark Samus' in the cutscene preceding their first battle. Dark Samus herself also has the ability to dodge in Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Their second fight together in the Sanctuary Fortress, also in Echoes, has Samus dodging more of Dark Samus' attacks in the cutscene. Cutscenes during the Amorbis battle in Echoes also depict a dodge.

Samus also has this move in Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Metroid: Other M is the first canon game in the Metroid series to feature the move in gameplay.
