26. Wizzro

27. Manhandla

28. Sooga

What I'm pretty sure started as an Onox moveset (general character with a swinging weapon and dragon-based moves, including a full dragon form) became the original character Volga, a shapeshifting dragon living in the caves near Eldin Volcano recruited to serve Cia in her bid to overthrow Hyrule. Even without an Onox basis, he does serve as a representative to the various dragon-type enemies throughout the series, such as Volvagia and Argorok.

As a fighter, Volga has both a human and a dragon form. He wields a sword as a human, and can breathe fire as a dragon. He can perform partial transformations as well, sprouting wings to fly and turning his arm to a dragon's arm in order to claw his enemies. He can also call up an eruption of flames, and splash flames out from himself.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

Standard B: Dragon Fire

He will breathe searing hot fire from his mouth at the opponents ahead of him. This will function similarly to Bowser or Charizard, though I could see it dealing slightly more damage.

Side B: Dragon Claw

He will transform his left arm into a dragon's arm and slash forward, dealing heavy damage with one strike.

Up B: Dragon Wings

He will sprout his wings out of his back and take off into the air, flying upwards with multiple flaps.

Down B: Eruption

He will stab his sword into the ground and cause a burst of flames to erupt from it, similarly to Ike's move of the same name.

Final Smash: Volvagia

He will transform into the dragon Volvagia and sweep over the stage, breathing fire upon it and lashing with his head tails.

Entrance: He will swoop in as a dragon and drop to the ground in his human form.

Taunts: Up, he will breathe fire into the sky above him (this will damage). Side, he will lash out with his sword with a growl. Down, he will stab his sword into the ground and laugh menacingly.

Thanks for reading! Next up, his companion representing the darker, more demonic enemies of Hyrule.
