These are done using separate image where the opacity is then animated and the bone containing the image might be scaled to make it fit better.
Another option is to use a path and have multiple images stretch along the path while the opacity is again animated. Using multiple bones to deform the image means you can reuse the same "swish" for multiple attacks.

Thanks for the tips Shiu It's a shame that there's no official quick tutorial on this matter as it seems to be a really usual visual effect that is not so obvious to set up !
