Character Sheet: Valerie

VALERIE

Next up, we have Valerie, the Fairy-type gym leader of Laverre City, and a sometimes fashion designer, who also wants to become a Pokemon. She is the first leader to introduce the Fairy type, so that will be a major part of her moveset.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Spritzee

It will use Fairy Wind.

 

Side B: Furisode Girls

One of the Furisode Girls will pop out and protect her.

 

Up B: Warp Panel

Using the warp panels from her gym.

 

Down B: Dazzling Gleam

She will spin, showing off her fashion, while a dazzling gleam happens around her, making those nearby dizzy.

 

Final Smash: Laverre Gym Fae Folk

She will send out a Florges, Aromatisse, and Sylveon (maybe Mega Audino, but that feels weird), and they will cast a spell across the stage.

 

Entrance: Her opening line and pose.

 

Taunts: Up, her Spritzee will fly around her. Side, she will swish her sleeves back and forth. Down, she will walk like she’s on a catwalk.

Character Sheet: Clemont

CLEMONT

Next up, we have Clemont, the Electric-type gym leader of Lumiose City, his gym located within the Prism Tower itself. He is an inventor, with lots of tech present in his design and gym, and his little sister Bonnie is a major part of his gym challenge, enough so that if we were just working with the game, she’d probably be factored into his moveset. That said, both have massive roles in the anime, and as such, that won’t need to be a factor. We’ve got plenty to go on.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Heliolisk

It will perform Discharge

 

Side B: Clemontic Grab

His little grabber arm from his backpack will reach out and grab someone.

 

Up B: Clemontic Explosion

He will pop out one of his inventions, which will clank around and explode, sending him straight up in the air.

 

Down B: Clemontic Shower

This will boost his electrical energy.

 

Final Smash: Lumiose Gym Lightning Bolts

He will send out Heliolisk, Dedenne, and Mega Ampharos to electrify the stage.

 

Entrance: His opening pose and line

Kirby Hat: His hair and glasses

Special Move: Clemontic Grab

 

Spirit Battle: On Prism Tower (omega form), with his original team and Bonnie.

 

Victory Screen: Proclaiming that science has won the day once again.

Color Swaps: His main outfit, an outfit based on Bonnie, based on Ash, based on Serena, based on Heliolisk, based on Luxray, based on Chespin, based on Lilia.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Valerie enchants the stage!

Character Sheet: Ramos

RAMOS

Next up, we have Ramos, the Grass-type gym leader of Coumarine City and an elderly gardener with a gym full of climbing vines and topiaries and such that we can work with.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Gogoat

It will use Wild Charge.

 

Side B: Shears

Guy has them, he might as well use them.

 

Up B: Climbing Vine

He will climb and swing from one of the vines in his gym.

The TM he gives, and it works to represent the weeds and such from his garden.

He will send out a Gogoat, Trevenant, and a Mega Venusaur to wreak havoc on the stage.

Character Sheet: Korrina

KORRINA

Next up, we have Korrina, the Fighting-type gym leader of Shalour City, and the granddaughter of the Mega Evolution guru Gurkinn, becoming a guru herself by the time of Legends Z-A. She has a notable love for roller blading, and she has an extended story arc in the anime where she travels with Ash and learns to control her Mega Evolved Lucario. Basically, she should be one of our easier movesets to make.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Lucario > Mega Lucario

Performing Bone Rush.

 

Side B: Roller Rush > Mega Rush

She will skate forward at high speed. Her Mega Lucario will rush with her, giving her a powerful aura when in guru mode.

 

Up B: Roller Jump > Mega Jump

She will jump and spin on her roller blades, going higher with an intense aura while in guru mode.

 

Down B: Mega Charge

This will send her into Guru mode and her Lucario into its Mega Form, giving her a boost to her stats over all. This will require a recharge after a while.

She will send out Lucario, Hawlucha, and Chesnaught to rampage around the stage. While in Guru Mode, all three will be Mega Evolved.

Character Sheet: Grant

GRANT

Next up, we have Grant, the Rock-type gym leader of Cyllage City. He is a rock climber with a rock-climbing wall that makes up the bulk of his gym. Naturally, that’s where most of our moveset focus will be.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Tyrunt

It will use Crunch.

 

Side B: Slide

He will use one of the slides used to get down from his gym to slide across the stage quickly.

 

Up B: Rock Climb

Obviously.

It is the TM he gives out.

VIOLA

Now, we begin our run of X and Y gym leaders. First, we have Viola, the Bug-type gym leader of Santalune City, a photographer, and the younger sister of recurring reporter Alexa. Most of the Kalos leaders have some pretty intricate gym challenges, so making movesets shouldn’t be too difficult.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Vivillon

Vivillon will use sleep powder.

 

Side B: Camera Flash

She’ll snap a picture and stun her opponents for a second.

 

Up B: Vivillon Swarm

Character Sheet: Marlon

 MARLON

And finally, we end off our Unova gym leaders with Marlon, the Water-type gym leader of Humilau City. He is a swimmer and fisherman by trade, which feeds heavily into his design and personality, and I think we won’t have too much problem with moveset.

He will dive into the stage as if water and swim at high speed.
