Combo Notation
motion inputs other than half circles are notated with numpad notation.
f. = far standing normal
c. = close
j. = jumping normal
SJ = Super Jump
xx = cancel
> = chain combo route
AD# = Air Dash and direction
fly = 214KK, used to indicate entering flight mode.
Midscreen
- Dash 2LK > 5MP, slight pause, 236+KK
- This is an inescapable grab reset! You must pause in order to let the opponent leave hitstun due to 236+KK being a grab.
- hcb + HK, dash c.2LK > 5LP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MP > j.MK > j.HK
- hcb + HK xx 236+PP (hold up to steer super correctly.)
- hcb + HK, OTG 2LP > 5MP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MK, j.HP
Corner Only
- c.6HK, dash c.2LK > 5MP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MP > j.MK > j.HP > j.HK > j.2+HP > j.2+HK
- 236+LP, dash(x2) 5LK > 5MK > 5HK xx hcb + LK xx 236+PP
Jump-in Starter
- j.HP, 3HP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MK > j.HP
- j.6+LK, j.HK, dash 5LP > 5MP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MK > j.HP
- j.HP, 3HP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MP > j.MK, j.6+HP
- j.2LK > j.HK, dash c.5LP > c.5MP xx SJ, j.LP > j.LK > j.MP > j.MK > j.HP/HK
- j.2LK > j.LP > j.HP, c.2LK > 2MK > 2HK xx 236+PP
Links
- c.2MP links into the following:
- f.5LK
- f.5LP
- f.5LK has more range but a tighter link window, f.5LP is stubbier but a more lenient link window.
- Dash, c.2LP > c.2MP, f.5LK > 5MK > 5HK
- Dash, c.2LP > c.2MP, f.5LP > 5MK > 5HK
- c.5LP can link into itself up to 2 times, then link into far 5LP
- c.5LP(x3), f.5LP > c.HK, (OTG) c.2LK > 5LP x SJ...
- c.5HP can link into c.5LP
- c.5HP, 5LP xx SJ, j.LK > j.MK > j.HK
- j.c.MK can link into j.LK
- j.HK can link into itself
- 3HP x SJ, j.LK > j.c.MK x AD8, j.LK > j.MK > j.HK, j.HK (while falling)
- j.MP can link into j.LP
- 2LP > 5MP x SJ, j.LK > j.MP, j.LP > hold 7 + j.f.LP > j.LK > j.HK (far normals should account for backwards drift)
Fly Combos
- Dhalsim can use his flight mode and links together to extend combos and maximize damage.
- c.2LP > c.5LP x SJ, j.LK X Fly, j.LK > j.MK > j.HK, j.LK x Fly, j.LK > j.MK, j.LK > j.MK > j.HK xx Fly, j.LK > j.LK > j.HK

Magnetro's Dhalsim Hitbox Combo Tutorial.
This video is a practical demonstration of Dhalsim's ability to cause Flying Screen Deterioration. This allows for Dhalsim to get an OTG launch where he would normally be forcing a hard knockdown.
