Ground Quake is a Staff Upgrade acquired late in Star Fox Adventures. It involves Fox building up energy with the staff while jumping and then slamming the staff into the ground to create a blue shockwave. The move uses up a large portion of the Staff Energy Meter.

Fox learns the move in Moon Mountain Pass just after leaving the Volcano Force Point Temple. Kalda Chom can only be defeated from the Ground Quake, making it the only way to obtain MoonSeeds.

In Walled City, Fox learns the Super Ground Quake, which is more powerful than Ground Quake. The main difference is that it can defeat RedEyes, which must be defeated to obtain the Gold RedEye Tooth. Because it is more powerful, the Super Ground Quake uses more of the Staff Energy Meter than the Ground Quake. Using the Super Ground forms a larger, orange shockwave upon hitting the ground.
