A video demonstration of it is here. Fast forward to 4:24 to watch how FADC works: To explain what a 'Focus Attack Dash Cancel' is, let me explain what a Focus attack is. You press Mid Punch and Mid Kick at the same time to do a Focus Attack. This lets you counter some singular hit attacks, like a Fireball or a straight punch/kick.

The stronger it is, the more likely you can get your opponent to crumple (they'll stoop over and fall down).
