Yonokaze

Yonokaze (ЁНОКАЗЭ ; lit. Wind of Night) is one of Goenitz's Special Moves in the King of Fighters series, first introduced in The King of Fighters '96.

Description
Goenitz calls down a pillar of wind in a designated location - the version being the closest to Goenitz, and the  version being the furthest.

Strategy
Yonokaze is hands down one of Goenitz's powerful tools. It can come out in a set area, cannot be rolled through and can negate all projectiles. Since the and  versions of Yonokaze can be summoned near Goenitz, rushing in headfirst towards him or just even approaching him increases the chance of getting hit.

In The King of Fighters '96 & SVC Chaos, the AI LOVES using this move. It is possible if the AI goes into a loop and does it repeatedly, the player cannot approach him in any way whatsoever due to the move's fast recovery. As such, Goenitz can potentially chip the player to death via a blockstun infinite.

Trivia

 * Should the move be written in Kanji, it would be.
 * Yonokaze is often called "Koko desu ka" (ここですか？; How about here?), due to Goenitz saying it every time the move is used.
