Character Sheet: Gloria/Victor

GLORIA/VICTOR

Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next we have the internet’s favorite fiery Scottish lass, and her meek British counterpart. That was a fun time to be a Pokemon fan on the internet, for sure. Anyway, their moveset will primarily pull from the Sword and Shield games, as well as the DLC packs.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Max Ball

Can contain every opponent within a certain area of where its thrown.

 

Side B: Poke Pal

One of your starters will jump out and attack. Scorbunny’s will definitely include a little fiery soccer ball.

 

Up B: Corviknight Taxi

A Corviknight will carry them up into the air.

 

Down B: Wooloo Roll

This is for the funsies.

 

Final Smash: Champions of Galar OR Gigantamax

Zacian and Zamazenta will race in and defend the player, attacking for them. Otherwise, your three starters in their gigantamax forms.

 

Entrance: Corviknight Taxi

 

Taunts: A lot of the internet’s Scottish Gloria memes would be fun, but probably not likely. Up, holding up the Dynamax ball. Side, bringing out a mock sword and shield based on the wolves. Down, setting up camp.

 

Kirby Hat: Gloria’s tam o’ shanter

 

Kart: Rotom Bike

Special Move: Wooloo Roll

 

Spirit Battle: On Dynamax Stadium

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

 

Color Swaps: Gloria’s normal outfit, Victor’s normal outfit, their respective stadium outfits, champion outfits with the branded cape and everything, and outfits based on Marnie and Piers.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Florian and Juliana make the grade!

Character Sheet: Elio/Selene

ELIO/SELENE

Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next up, we have Elio and Selene, the protagonists of Sun and Moon, as well as Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon (also the first ever Champions of the region). Their movesets will definitely pull from the games, as they never had a major anime appearance (at least in the main anime).

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Beast Ball

It is the natural pick for these games.

 

Side B: Tauros Charge

Ride Pokemon are probably one of the most important new features here, and Tauros charge is one of the first and also definitely one of the most “battle-ready.”

 

Up B: Charizard Glide

Same reasons.

 

Down B: SOS

You can call for aid and a wild Pokemon will appear and follow you around, attacking when you attack. Typically a Yungoos or a Pikipek or other common Pokemon.

 

Final Smash: Z-Move Finale

The player will perform a Z-Move dance. It could be just Decidueye, Incineroar, and Primarina performing a triple one, but, following the Box Legendary theme, it could also be Solgaleo, Lunala, and Necrozma performing theirs.

 

Entrance: Charizard Glide

 

Taunts: All three are the various dances used in Z-Moves.

 

Kirby Hat: Ethan’s cap

 

Kart: The Tauros ride

Special Move: Beast Ball

 

Spirit Battle: On Iki Town Plaza

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

 

Color Swaps: Elio’s SM look, Selene’s SM look, Elio’s USUM look, Selene’s USUM look, Elio dressed like Hau, Selene dressed like Lillie, both wearing Ultra Recon Squad uniforms.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Gloria and Victor take up the sword and shield of Galar!

Character Sheet: Serena/Calem

SERENA/CALEM

Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next, we have Serena and Calem, the protagonists of Pokemon X and Y, as well as the most prominent rival depending on which one you pick. Their moveset will pull heavily from their games, especially since this was the first big shift to 3D, but Serena’s anime appearance will definitely factor in as well.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Horde Attack

A group of five Pokemon will swarm an opponent all at once.

 

Side B: Skiddo Ride

The player will hop onto a Skiddo as it charges across the stage at high speed.

 

Up B: Sky Battle

A wingsuit will appear on the player and they will float upward into the air.

 

Down B: Pokemon Performance

Based on Serena’s performances from the anime, will have some flourishes from Pokemon Amie and will boost the Pokemon-based stats in the same way.

 

Final Smash: Mega Evolution

I think Xerneas and Yveltal will appear in the background as the attack powers up, but the focus will be on Calem or Serena summoning a Mega Lucario to race quickly across the stage, attacking people.

 

Entrance: Fly, carried by Talonflame

 

Taunts: Up, performing a Pokemon Performance pose. Side, performing a spin on roller skates. Down, feeding their Pokemon a Poke Puff.

 

Kirby Hat: Serena’s hat

 

Kart: Based on Gogoat.

Special Move: Skiddo Ride

 

Spirit Battle: On Prism Tower.

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

 

Color Swaps: Serena’s base look, Calem’s base look, the rival look for both, a Performance look for both, based on Shauna, based on Tierno.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Elio and Selene fight under the Alolan sun and moon!

Character Sheet: Nate/Rosa

NATE/ROSA

Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next up, we have Nate and Rosa of the Black 2 and White 2 games. As those two games came from the same generation, it is reasonable to treat the two as echoes or at least semi-clones (we’ll discuss our rival characters later), but any major differences between the games will be factored in.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Pokemon Attack

Same as Side B for Hilbert and Hilda

 

Side B: Stage Attack

The player will be able to perform a basic attack similar to those performed in Poke Star Studios.

 

Up B: Fly

They will use Braviary instead of Unfezant

 

Down B: Triple Rotation

Same as Hilbert and Hilda, except in reverse order.

 

Final Smash: The Ice Dragon

Kyurem will appear, latch onto Reshiram and Zekrom and transform into the forms based on them before attacking the stage with ice attacks. As always, starter-based team attack is reasonable too.

 

Entrance: Fly, carried by Braviary

 

Taunts: Up, dressing up in a PokeStar costume and posing. Side, scanning around with the dream radar. Down, their Pokemon running around them.

 

Kirby Hat: Nate’s hat

 

Kart: The bicycle

Special Move: Stage Attack

 

Spirit Battle: On N’s Castle

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next, we have the two protagonists of the Black and White games set in Unova. As they have had little appearance outside of their main games, most of their moveset will be specifically pulling from that.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Dream Ball

Mostly functions the same as normal.

 

Side B: Pokemon Attack

You can use Down B to switch between which Pokemon attacks in this moment.

 

Up B: Fly

The player's Unfezant carries them up.

 

Down B: Triple Rotation

You will be able to switch between Snivy, Tepig, and Oshawott being the player’s main attacker for specific moves.

 

Final Smash: Black and White

Reshiram and Kyurem will take turns flying across the stage and attacking. A team finish of Serperior, Emboar, and Samurott would also be fine.

 

Entrance: Fly, carried by Unfezant

 

Taunts: Up, performing a Pokemon Musical pose. Side, struggling to pull out a Poke Ball just like Bianca does. Down, their starters running around their feet.

 

Kirby Hat: Hilbert’s hat

 

Kart: The bicycle

Special Move: Triple Rotation

 

Spirit Battle: On Castelia City

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

 

Color Swaps: Hilbert’s main look, Hilda’s main look, Hilbert dressed like Cheren, Hilda dressed like Bianca, Hilbert dressed like Nate, Hilda dressed like Rosa, Hilbert dressed like Cilan, Hilda dressed like Iris.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Nate and Rosa’s victory is black and white too!

Character Sheet: Dawn/Lucas

DAWN/LUCAS

Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next we have Dawn and Lucas, the protagonists of Diamond and Pearl, Platinum, and BrilliantDiamond and ShiningPearl. They may also be the same person as Akari and Rei, but that’s a little uncertain. Also, the one you don’t pick is the assistant of Professor Rowan. The unique aspects of their games will make up their moveset, and Dawn’s anime appearance will be factored in as well.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Quick Ball

Holds the opponent longer if used first thing in a match.

 

Side B: Contest Dance

The player and a Pokemon will dance for a second, doing damage as they do so.

 

Up B: Rock Climb

A very prominent HM used in these games specifically.

 

Down B: Poffin

To give a stat boost.

 

Final Smash: The Creation Trio

Team finish with Torterra, Infernape, and Empoleon is still an option. Dialga and Palkia fighting each other until a distortion appears and Giratina drags the nearest players inside, is also an option.

 

Entrance: You know what. Fly, with each’s distinct regional bird carrying them. Or the little Fly sprite for the earlier game protagonists, maybe. Either way, Staraptor here.

 

Taunts: Up, a member of the Lake trio flying around them. Side, performing a contest dance move. Down, playing with one of their starters.

 

Kirby Hat: Dawn’s beanie.

 

Kart: Their bicycle

Special Move: Contest Dance

 

Spirit Battle: On Spear Pillar

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

 

Color Swaps: Dawn’s original look, Lucas’s original look, Dawn’s Platinum look, Lucas’s platinum look, both’s Contest looks, both’s Biker looks.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Hilbert and Hilda’s victory is black and white!

Character Sheet: May/Brendan

MAY/BRENDAN

Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next up, we have Brendan and May, the protagonists of Ruby and Sapphire, Emerald, and OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire. Whichever one you don’t pick also acts as your main rival and the child of the professor who lives next door. The moveset will mostly come from the distinct unique aspects of their home games, though May’s anime appearance will also be factored in.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Luxury Ball

Will hold the opponents in a little bit longer.

 

Side B: Double Battle

Two Pokemon will come out and perform an HM move one after another.

 

Up B: Latias and Latios

Based on ORAS, where Latias and Latios act as your Ride Pokemon when using fly.

 

Down B: Contest Twirl

The player and a Pokemon will perform a dance twirl that attacks in the process.

 

Final Smash: Hoenn’s Calamity

Could also be just a team attack with Sceptile, Blaziken, and Swampert, but I do still like the idea of using the Box Pokemon instead. This would have Kyogre and Groudon start fighting in the background, causing a storm across the stage, ending when Rayquaza appears.

 

Entrance: Stepping out of Birch’s Lab (you know, maybe Fly entrance would work better for all of these. Hmm).

 

Taunts: Up, performing a contest finale move. Side, letting out two Pokemon as if for a double battle. Down, holding and looking over a red or blue orb.

 

Kirby Hat: May’s bandana and hair.

 

Kart: Based on Mega Latias/Latios

Special Move: Double Battle

 

Spirit Battle: On Sky Pillar

Thanks for reading! Next up, Dawn and Lucas go platinum!
