Yamori

YAMORI

Besides Aba, Tingle will have a number of supporting characters he can hire on as bodyguards, basically characters who will follow him around and get into the fight clouds with him. Some will be pretty basic, but a few will be a bit more prominent.

Among these is Yamori, a ninja who bears a striking resemblance to a certain Ryu Hayabusa. He will be a prominent bodyguard throughout Rosy Rupeeland, but will return in Balloon Trip of Love as a recurring minigame, hiding out on certain maps and requiring Tingle to find him by shooting him with a slingshot.

As a fighter, Yamori will be heavily speed and stealth-based, with moves letting him sneak around the stage and pulled from both of his game appearances.

Likelihood rating: Never gonna happen.
