RETURNING CHARACTERS
I hope we're in for the long haul, because after this, we have a full total of sixty-three newcomer character sheets to do. Luckily, I have hopefully come up with a new way to cover all returning characters in need of update rather than just adding them to the total.
First on our returning list is Link. He has four (five?) alternate versions coming, but this one will be the basic Adult Link type, pulling from much of his appearances in Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword. Across all of the games, he had a ton of specialized items and weaponry, but as per usual, weapons like his sword, shield, bow and arrow, boomerang, and bombs make constant consistent appearances. If I were to make a change to his moveset, his boomerang might now have a wind effect, his hookshot could potentially replace his Up B (though it works fine as a tether too), his arrows might have the ice, fire, or light effects, and his Master Sword Finish doesn't have to be his Final, though I'd say it's still the best option.
Dark Link returns, though he will still only be an echo fighter, and probably will be until we cover Four Swords Adventure. So, all changes we made to Link, we can attach to him with dark effects. Otherwise, he's still fine.
Princess Zelda is a major upheaval, since before she was mostly honorary with only general guesses for a moveset. Now, we have much more to go on. Removing Sheik and Tetra from the equation, she often makes use of her light arrows, has a special magical song called Zelda's Lullaby that can have numerous magical effects, can trap herself in a jewel, can create and dispel magical barriers, float and sail with a sail cloth, and of course, seal Ganon away. I'd say light arrows are a natural Standard B, her barrier magic, ability to heal herself, or Zelda's Lullaby with a "Metronome" style effect all have some good Down B energy, with one of them taking up the Side B spot as well. Finally, her sail cloth or ability to float into the air could easily take up her Up B. Her Final Smash makes sense to seal Ganon away, and I'm actually quite fond of how it looks in Smash now.
Moblins of course reappear a lot, and slide into their new role as the "big" variants of the smaller Bokoblins. Most of what I included in the moveset before has reappeared, or seen actually fruition, with one of my only changes possibly being their propensity for clubs and the shockwaves created in their Ocarina of Time appearances, possibly having their spear charges take up Standard B, and the club shockwaves becoming Side B.
Finally, we have Stalfos, who tend to take up different fighting styles across their game appearances. One of the most notable new features of them is the Stalchildren, smaller versions of them that rise from the ground to cause trouble. Those I would include as the Down B, if I haven't included it yet. The Majora's Mask boss's dust breath might work for a Side B or Standard B as well.
And that's it! Come back tomorrow for our new characters, starting with Young Link!
